Chapter 114: First Appearance (2)
"Want me to carry you into the bathroom?" Spade gently offered.
Arren smiled, but then he shook his head. He might want to act spoiled for much longer, but he didn’t want to look fragile either. He didn’t want to be treated like that, so he might tease the alpha for it, but he still wanted to walk on his own and get used to this feeling.
"Just support me a little, I can go by myself." He rejected Spade’s offer. The alpha looked at him and nodded.
"Okay, let’s go. You need to eat."
Arren agreed and, with difficulty, managed to enter the bathroom. As he said, it didn’t take him long for him to endure it and ignore the pain in his lower back. It was there, but not too serious anymore.
Not long after, he was ready; the food was also prepared inside and delivered by the attendants. He walked slowly, limping for a bit, and observed the food. They were mostly soup dishes, as eating hard foods might upset his stomach. Some vegetables and fruits were also there.
"Are we not going to eat breakfast with Mother Empress?" Arren curiously asked and sat beside Spade.
"It’s already afternoon," Spade responded, informing him
"Oh, so how long was I asleep?"
The alpha looked at him and smiled, "You didn’t sleep too long, almost a day."
Arren nodded, it was already acceptable since he had been really exhausted during his heat.
"You need to eat," the alpha firmly ordered, and Arren could only laugh since he also wanted to eat as he was already starving.
While they were eating, Arren only persuaded Spade to join him, and they talked about some things. And Spade briefed him on the matters that happened in the past few days, including some plans they had, like the event in the Capital Square to give a grand commemoration of all the victims of the ’terrorist’ attack that happened over a week ago.
"Do you want to attend?" Spade stared at him and asked, his voice somewhat serious.
Arren was aware that the alpha was thinking about the trauma that he might have in that place because of what happened. He held Spade’s hands before nodding his head.
"Yes, of course, I’ll be there to support you." he agreed without hesitation.
It was true, he was still shaken and anxious. However, he wasn’t someone that would cower in fear either, the moment he let the fear get into his head, it was his defeat.
Spade also gripped his hand tightly, a faint smile appearing on his lips. "What I also mean, attending beside me?"
Arren’s smile somewhat faded as he looked at the alpha’s bright expression and smile; he seemed to still be processing what he was saying.
"You mean?" He already vaguely understood, but he still wanted to confirm, his emotions were already a mess.
He knew someday Spade would introduce him to the Empire, given their serious relationship. Now that this time had come, Arren still couldn’t help but be nervous, but he was also excited.
The alpha nodded, smiling assuringly, and grasped his hand before kissing it to his lips under Arren’s gaze.
"I want to let the whole empire and even the world know that... I already found my omega." He paused as Arren’s lips trembled from emotion; it was just... he was so overwhelmed. "Arren, I want to introduce you to my citizens... Can I?" Spade stared straight into his eyes with his sincere gaze, waiting for his answer.
This was actually just the alpha inviting him to an event, however, without explicitly saying it, as they both acknowledged that it was not the time yet to talk about marriage and whatnot because of their certain circumstances. But it was more or less given that the moment he was introduced to everyone, on a formal and solemn occasion no less, Arren’s position as the future empress would be sealed.
Arren was truly happy as he leaned in and kissed Spade, giving him only a chaste kiss before pulling away and nodding his head, grinning with delight. "Of course, I’ll gladly accompany you... and be by your side, always."
With that, Spade leaned in and continued their kiss.

over a week ago.
"Your Excellency," a silent and almost trembling voice sounded in the silent room. He stood behind the man, who was standing and admiring his plants silently.
"Hmm?" the man called Excellency responded with a hummed calmly.
"I’m sorry, Your Excellency. The operation failed." The man bowed, already trembling as though awaiting the judgment of death.
The silence shrouded the room for a few seconds, but this did not make the man relax; instead, he became even more afraid.
"Failed?" Just one simple word and the whole room’s temperature suddenly became cold, the man who was bowing shivered.
The man called ’Your Excellency continued calmly, "After we changed the plans and took a lot of risks, and you’re saying... you all failed?" He turned around and faced the man, his oppressive gaze focused on the man. "Useless!" he uttered in a firm voice.
While his voice had not increased, it was enough for the man bowing to almost kneel on the ground and beg for forgiveness and a second chance. The man’s pheromones filled and shrouded the room; it was truly shocking that his control over his alpha pheromones was even more stable compared to other dominant alphas. It was still a mystery if he could overwhelm Spade in this aspect.
Ignoring the man bowing before him, who, if looking closely, was even older than him as he was already hunching, he loosened his cuffs with a composed expression, but his pheromones said otherwise.
’His Excellency clicked his tongue as his footsteps sounded before stopping just beside the bowing older man. His eyes glanced dangerously at him, and he calmly spoke once more, "I know, our actions next time will be much more difficult. His Majesty will be even more cautious, and the Empire will be closely monitored."
The older man nodded, not daring to argue.
’His Excellency’ leaned beside the man’s ears, "I’ll give you another chance. If you don’t want to die and continue living in your rotten body, make sure you capture him next time. No matter what it takes... bring Arren Katz to me."
After saying that and giving one last glance to the man, who could only nod his head, he started walking again, leaving the trembling man behind.
And as he was the only one inside the room, he took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped his forehead. Sighing before he mumbled "Arren Katz," his voice was that of an elderly man who could almost give you a good impression.
In fact, this voice was familiar, and if Arren heard it, he would immediately recognize it. The one that he met at the annual banquet, who pestered him to introduce his grandson for some blind date... Duke Merphen, the leader of the left faction!

’His Excellency’ strode through the path until stopping in front of a room... Looking at it from the outside, it appeared like a prison. The guards bowed at him and opened the heavy door, with a few more doors following before reaching the end and an actual room.
He stood at the entrance, looking at the disheveled man inside. His expression didn’t change even when the man’s blank eyes gradually became ferocious and attempted to attack him. However, the chains shackling his limbs prevented him from doing so.
"My patience is wearing thin. Amos... your son has grown so big now." He smirked as the man became even more ferocious after mentioning his son, yelled, and made some incoherent sounds sounded. "You really did a good job raising him, he also has some value. What do you think if I finally seek him out, huh?"
The man wanted to yell and say something, but he had a cover in his mouth like the dog’s muzzles. However, with his red eyes, it could already be discerned that he was cursing the man before him.
’His Excellency’ only laughed maniacally before calming down as nothing had happened. "If you don’t want him to die, reveal the whereabouts of your wife."
In Amos’ eyes, the man before him was not human at all, but a demon.
