Third Life
The return of Emperor Abraxas

BRACKET...

Until suddenly the door opened and entered the Princess Mary who ran towards the bed.

While Annelise who saw him immediately distanced himself from Emperor Abraxas and stood down his head. Emperor Abraxas, who saw her, was secretly upset at the failure to kiss Annelise.

But not for long Emperor Abraxas could not hide his joy at seeing his little Princess Mary.

" Good morning my beloved" said Emperor Abraxas, stretching out his arms, telling Princess Mary to embrace him.

Princess Maria smiled and threw her body into the warm embrace of Emperor Abraxas the only family she had.

Annelise who saw him smiled as if she had seen the sight of the Emperors Abraxas and Sophia. He just silently watched the father and son embrace each other then his gaze unintentionally looked towards Emperor Abraxas who was watching him as well with a smile.

" Thank you." said Emperor Abraxas without a voice.

The words of Emperor Abraxas made Annelise startled before simply lowering her head not seeing him anymore.

...****************...

Two days later, Emperor Abraxas was feeling well and decided to return to the palace to carry out his state duties.

All the families of Count Von de Ramos gathered outside the house to usher in the departure of Emperor Abraxas.

Emperor Abraxas was silent but his gaze was fixed on Annelise who was standing behind the Countess. According to Emperor Abraxas Annelise was very beautiful with a plain white dress and a flower crown made her golden brown hair shine by the sun. Looked like an angel with her innocent gaze.

" There's no need to feel guilty my Count thanked me for hosting us so well. Especially Lady Annelise who has taken care of me and become a friend of Princess Maria. So I will invite you to attend my birthday in a week." said Emperor Abraxas before bowing his head a little and then he entered the horse-drawn carriage with Princess Maria.

Seeing the chariot carrying Emperor Abraxas and Princess Maria already gone Annelise only saw it before deciding to go back inside if the Count had not prevented it.

" Anne" said the Count to his youngest daughter.

" Yes dad, is there anything you want to talk about?" ask Anne politely.

Count who heard the soft voice of Annelise made him feel happy because it began slowly the nature of his son had begun to change unlike the childish one before.

" Dad just wanted to say that you made me proud. For having given good service until Emperor Abraxas gave us the honor of telling us to come to the feast. Not everyone can come to his party." said the Count with a proud expression.

Annelise who saw the proud smile of her father was surprised because during her previous life she had never given anything that made her father proud. Although he married an Emperor at the time his father was disappointed in him because the marriage made the relationship between the Emperor and his Princess deteriorate.

There was no doubt that everyone in the empire including her father was very fond of Princess Maria.

" I'm happy to have made you happy then if you'll excuse me first that there's work to be done" Anne said, bowing before entering the castle.
