Queen Ariadne's POV.
Next morning, when I woke up I found my self wrapped in the Emperor's arms. We slept on the cushion together in the drawing room. I looked at his face and all I could see was an innocent man sound asleep. Who will believe that such a handsome face belongs to the devil? His eyes were shut tight. Those eyes I barely look in to when they were opened. The long black lashes stood out making his appearance more beautiful. His thin lips were pink and attractive , making me regret why I didn't kiss them last night when he asked me to.
