Hareem of Queen Alessa
Off the cage

Emperor Alessa and Duke Tristan are forced out of the mansion through a secret door known only to the man. Unexpectedly his mansion had been besieged by the soldiers of Emperor Louis. The old man had found out what Duke Tristan was doing that was, letting Emperor Alessa live. Even treated him very well. Emperor Louis was suspicious since Duke Tristan was late for his party. A party that Emperor Louis had purposely made for him. However, the Duke had arrived too late. A rare thing

done by that man.

Emperor Louis finally sends a spy to the Duke's mansion to investigate the man's cause late and after finding out everything. Emperor Louis was angry, he felt betrayed by people he trusted so much. Duke Tristan dared to lie about Emperor Alessa who had died at his hands.

The power of Emperor Luois was not playful, as sure as Duke Tristan would be his influence, in fact it did not apply at all. An Emperor-class ruler could clearly get rid of Duke Tristan despite having to lose half his army.

Duke Tristan's loyal soldiers continued to endure allowing his master to escape, all of whom were willing to make sacrifices and became enemies of Emperor Louis.

“Master, you should go to Mount Carpathia to avoid pursuing the forces of Emperor Louis. I'm going to barack to tell the others.”

The location of Duke Tristan's troops was quite far from his Mansion. Therefore the siege of Emperor Louis was inevitable. If Duke Tristan had 20,000 men, this would never have happened. Emperor Louis made a surprise attack. Who would have thought if they had come to capture the Duke and Emperor Alessa?

At first the guards thought this was just an ordinary troop arrival, unexpectedly they were stabbed on the spot. As their numbers were outnumbered, the soldiers and bodyguards of Duke Tristan were outnumbered.

Duke Tristan nodded, after which his men immediately went towards the barracks. Meanwhile, Duke Tristan Returns to continue the journey with Emperor Alessa and several soldiers. Emperor Alessa followed the man without comment until they reached a cave in the Carpathian mountain boy.

“We spend the night here,” said Duke Tristan. He also pointed to one of the soldiers. “Clean the cave and prepare a place to sleep Duchess!”

“Good, Master!”

Emperor Alessa who had been silent since then finally interrupted the Duke's order. The soldier who was ruled until silence awaited the end of the debate of the Duke and Duchess.

“You don't have to do that. I can sleep only on the ground though,” Emperor Alessa.

Hearing the words of Emperor Alessa, Duke Tristan immediately shook his head quickly. “Duchess, of course it is necessary. I don't want you to get bitten by an insect,”. The man looked back at the soldier. “Capable work!”

“I-Yes Sir!”

Duke Tristan is a person who does not want to be denied, the Emperor Alessa chose to sit on a large stone. The woman was arguing. Duke Tristan approached him.

“You tired, baby? Take it easy, I have a castle in the border area. Emperor Louis will not be able to pursue us. Because he never knew of that place.”

Emperor Alessa turned her head, she smiled cynically. “Until now I still do not know, why did Emperor Louis chase me and want to kill me? And why did you not obey his orders? What do you got Duke?”

The Duke was silent when the question was raised by the Emperor. The man looked at Emperor Alessa. “The day before the order to finish you off is put down, Queen Anna comes to the Emperor. It seems like everything is at his request. Do you have a problem with Queen Anna?”

“Ra-queen Anna? So ... Not King Fabian?”

“Queen Anna was a niece of Emperor Louis, everything she wanted was always obeyed by the Emperor because Emperor Louis did not have a daughter. All of his children are men. King Fabian also got his throne at this time with the help of Emperor Louis.”, explained Duke Tristan suddenly made the Emperor Alessa laugh softly.

Duke Tristan pursed his lips tightly. There's something bigger than that.

Should he tell Emperor Alessa?

“Actually .. Emperor Louis intends to attack Aegis. Because currently Aegis has no leader.” The man decided to tell the truth.

Netra Emperor instantly widened. “A-what did you say?”

“Despite Queen Anna's request. Emperor Louis wanted to conquer the Aegis. Before King Fabian changed titles. Emperor Louis has been monitoring Aegis secretly.”

Emperor Alessa got up from her seat and grabbed hold of the Duke's neck collar. He's very angry. “Why did you just tell me! Do you know what Aegis means to me? If Aegis is destroyed, there is no longer any reason for me to live. You think I'll just shut up and be your pet?”

“I'm sorry, I did it all because I didn't want to lose you. I think it's enough to hide you with news of your fake death. I forgot about the possibility of Aegis being attacked. I ... love you Duchess.” Duke Tristan held the Emperor's hand. That same moment the woman jerked her hand. Let go

he drew the sword of Duke Tristan.

“Duchess, please calm down!” Duke Tristan raised his hand while shaking his head. Emperor Alessa drew this sword at him.

“Go away and stop calling me that! Of love? What do you know the meaning of that word? what you do is not love, but restraint!” Hardik Emperor. The woman was frightened by the mind that was wandering. He just wants to go back to Aegis. He must save his country and its people.

“Good, I won't call that again. Come back, it's not safe out there. You won't last long while you're being searched in every corner of Diocletianus.” Duke Tristan tried to persuade Emperor Alessa, the Duke's soldiers noticed the commotion and began to swarm around the Emperor.

“So you think I'll be safe with you? While my country is under attack? You don't joke!”

“We will find a way, I ... I will return you to Aegis. So, please come with me. Right now it's just the best choice!”

Emperor Alessa laughed. “Hahaha, you really are a very proud man. Even in this situation you are still arrogant. Rather than me being with you, I would rather die!” Emperor Alessa stuck a sword on his neck. Duke Tristan was aghast, he was very surprised.

“What are you doing! Take off that sword!”

“I'll let go as long as you let me go. Get all your soldiers out of the way! NOW!”

Duke Tristan clenched his hands, never did he want Emperor Alessa injured. The only thing he could do was to obey the woman's request. Although very heavy.

“All of you, go from here!” the Duke's orders to the soldiers. They look confused. The problem is, all this rebellion started from the Emperor Alessa. If the woman leaves, what good are they to be traitors. All this madness was due to the Duke's blind love that left many at a disadvantage. Although the soldiers had sworn allegiance to the master up to the point of the final blood.
