Chapter 2

It has only been three days since the soldiers have taken Naomi from her home. Since that time, she hasn't been able to get any more information on why the emperor has requested a peasants presence. Instead of answering the girl's questions, they gave Naomi candy and patted her head, but she would be lying if she said she didn't enjoy it.

"Lady Naomi! We have arrived at the palace." Derek, one of the soldiers, beamed at me.

Although what Derek was telling her was good news, Naomi couldn't help but be afraid. These last few have been a dream come true, but reality quickly slapped her in the face. Naomi stared at the ground as the guards escorted her into the palace; she could hear the servants' bustling and busy life as they ran around in preparations for some important event hosted by the emperor. The soldiers were not bothered by the commotion as they kept guiding Naomi somewhere into the palace.

It was not long before the guards stopped at a large oak door; Naomi noticed that it had the imperial family's crest embedded along with the wood. The girl gulped down the lump in her throat as the door opened, and the guards started guiding her again.

"Now entering the imperial family. May the gods bless our eternal sun." A voice boomed out in the ballroom.

"May the gods bless our eternal sun." the guards kneeled at the presence of the people walking in.

'May the gods bless our eternal sun? Mother never said that phrase before. What does it mean?' Naomi thought. She also did not understand why the guards kneeled either. So many questions, yet no one could answer her.

Naomi did not have time to think about the people's weird actions here when a group of people dressed in beautiful clothing walked in. Her mouth dropped when her eyes landed on their faces, and the only thing she could say was, "They are beautiful." but still no one said a word until two members of the group sat down on the only chairs in the ballroom.

"Your imperial majesty, we have brought the girl upon your request." one of the guards finally spoke.

A man with blonde hair and striking blue eyes nodded and focused his gaze on Naomi. 'He is the emperor? Is this the end of my life?'

Naomi gulped at the thought. Death could not be that bad; her mother was no here and was never a constant figure in her life.

"Oami!" was someone calling for her?

"NAOMI!" yes, someone was, but who?

Before she realized it, someone was pointing a sword at her throat.
