i see this man does not waste time or care for formalities
Archibald stared at her for some time with inexplicable emotion before he pulled her again and sat her on his lap. The sudden movement inevitably woke her up from her daze.

that's right, arrogant tyrant behold the beautiful holy maiden
He was sipping his drink when he saw Aisha walking towards them. It was only a glimpse at first, but later, he found himself unable to avert his eyes or even blink.
Fantasy · PetiteSnowdrop
she must be a truly beautiful woman
To put it short, even when she wore simple attire, Aisha was eye candy for sore eyes. The soldiers couldn't keep their eyes off her when she stepped out of the tent.

ch 0 3 Swearing Allegiance
Fantasy · PetiteSnowdrop
oh these people would dare to say vile things
"Hey, don't be so harsh on her. She finally understands her standing so she won't be able to act arrogantly like before. At most, she can be the Emperor's bed warmer. It's a great honor for a peasant like her."
Fantasy · PetiteSnowdrop
difficult decisions always have to be made for survival but it will only make her stronger than she is now
"Ever since you gave me a name, my life has already belonged to you. I have received a great honor from you and am willing to serve you for the new life you have given me."
Fantasy · PetiteSnowdrop
he lives up to his tyrant title
"If you swear your loyalty to me, I will take both of you to the Empire. If you want me to release her, sacrifice yourself by entertaining my men with your body, then kill yourself afterward."
Fantasy · PetiteSnowdrop
oh his arrogance does make me want to shoot him
Archibald sneered. "How disgustingly noble of you. But I don't remember ever promising something like that."
Fantasy · PetiteSnowdrop
it's good that he gave her these kinds of choices if he pardoned her off and gave an easy offer it would have taken his tyrant essence from him, hmm good character building
"Priestess Aisha, I will grant you an option to choose. Either swear your loyalty to me or die here with your people."
Fantasy · PetiteSnowdrop
you may be a tyrant but treat her well or else will virtually stab you
It was funny how she could make an expression like that in front of her enemy as if she had just been salvaged from life torture.

a pretty name indeed
And Aisha would be her name from now on.
Fantasy · PetiteSnowdrop
while I don't completely hate him still want to know the reason for which he destroyed her homeland
However, this person she had just met today and destroyed her homeland granted her something that no one dared to do, as if he was trying to defy heaven.
Fantasy · PetiteSnowdrop
this might be strange but ehm those ending lines of his somehow don't make me want to hate him ehm
"Since no one called you by your name, I will bestow you a new name and life. You will now be called Aisha in the name of Emperor Archibald Lywellyn Ambrose. Remember this name for the rest of your life, and never forget who you belong to."
Fantasy · PetiteSnowdrop
crafty one he is
"She fought valiantly, but alas, war is war. She is dying as we speak, but I don't mind sending a physician her way if I feel generous. If you are as wise as they said, you will know that her life and death depend on your choice now."
Fantasy · PetiteSnowdrop
ah the arrogant handsome one arrives
The Emperor looked unbothered by her sharp words and walked closer instead. Using his armored hand, he pinched her chin and forced her to look up. She didn't avert her gaze and defiantly looked back at those beautiful but wicked eyes.
Fantasy · PetiteSnowdrop
A full five stars from me since it deserves no less. The author has a good grasp of portraying emotions and interactions between characters ,I like that the development isn't rushed, it's realistically paced. I've read right till chapter 12 and I like the subtle drops of mysteries and conflicts that are about to start. I look forward to seeing the romantic development and the angst that will follow. synopsis was a killer one too! best of luck!
