Chapter 3: Chapter 2 : Meeting his parents again
Nectar sat quietly in her seat with Liam standing close . Eros and Athena also had their personal knight and servant standing as well. [ So I shouldn't talk through out, then I have to do something about these scars ....]
Athena's voice snapped Nectar out of her thoughts " My Empress are you listening " ? Nectar nodded " What were you saying "? Athena looked worried ",I hope my presence isn't a bother. I could leave ". Nectar waved her off " Unnecessary, your presence is a ray of sunshine ". Nectar turned the other way, silent.
Eros was glad he didn't have to yell. Nectar was a bit bothersome sometimes but she was bearable. Athena on the other hand was clenching her first [ How dare she act all high and mighty? That's supposed to be me ]
Nectar was so lost in thought she didn't notice Athena glaring at her, Liam however was observant enough to send a drop of killing intent over. Small enough, no one else noticed but Athena and she paled instantly.
Just then the doors opened and a striking couple worked in, though they had a few wrinkles, they looked young and vibrant. The man had sleek healthy black hair and a fuzzy beard and lazy red eyes while the woman had flaming red curls and piercing blue eyes.
The man chuckled " How's my baby Eros doing " ? Eros sighed as he walked over " Father, I told you not to call me that ". Arthur laughed again and pinched Eros' cheeks " You look so cute when your upset ".
The lady spoke up then , smiling softly " Arthur, save the boy some face ". Arthur smiled and held her hand " Alright Kira, but I just missed him so much "
Nectar stifled a giggle at the banter. She didn't have that kind of relationship with her parents in her first life, exactly why she cherished it in her second one. Nectar sighed and Athena turned to her, concerned " My empress, are you alright? Do you need some rest ".
Nectar : '....' .
Arthur signalled for her to come and she hesitantly got up. Nectar could feel the tears gathering in her eyes. This man was one of the few people in this land that actually didn't hate her. He was warm and friendly but unfortunately he died in a ship accident three years later in her first life.
Nectar bowed low " Greetings to Father Arthur and Mother Kira ". She could here the woman snicker but was suddenly pulled into a hug. Arthur was laughing and patting her head "Good child. I missed you so much, did you miss me "?
Nectar didn't know whether to cry or laugh, so she did both, laughing and crying into his clothes as she hugged him back " I missed you more than you'll ever know Father ". Arthur smiled and they let go of each other.
Nectar bowed slightly to Kira who disregarded her greetings. Instead, she called Athena over. She bounded towards Kira and hugged her " How has Mother Kira been doing "?
Kira patted her head, treating her like a child " Amazing, thank you for asking " . Nectar didn't bother with either of them and left Eros with Arthur. Nectar didn't even mind being a background character.
Liam thought she felt bad and whispered in her ear " Could you tell me where my empress is "? Nectar raised an eyebrow " But I'm right here " . Liam pretended to be shocked " I doubt it. My empress talks a lot and is not a crybaby ". Nectar playfully nudged him " Be serious for once, just once "
Arthur noticed Liam and turned abruptly to Nectar who was laughing " And who is this dashing young man "? Liam stiffened then bowed " Did I interrupt something, my liege "?
Arthur waved his hand " Nonsense. What's your name lad "? Liam seemed to have switched off so Nectar spoke for him, holding his arm " This is Liam, he is my knight aaaaall the way from Actso ".
Arthur smiled as he stood in front of them " Nice to meet you Liam, its good Nectar won't be alone here. But I didn't see you at the wedding " Nectar held unto his arm and leaned on it " He was on a mission so he came about a month ago ".
Arthur smiled and clasped hands with Liam " Then welcome to Lishflour Liam. I hope to see more of you ". Liam smiled and shook his hand firmly " Of course sire ".
