Chapitre 146: Family Reunion

Having received the surrender of the young Emperor Theodosius II. Marcellus entered the palace of Constantinople, where he came across three young girls. A fierce look appeared on the face of an adorable young girl who was no older than twelve. Marcellus knew this girl to be Aelia Pulcheria. Behind her were her sisters, Aelia Flaccilla and Aelia Arcadia. 

Though he had a kind and gentle expression on his handsome face, Pulcheria appeared to be enraged about his very appearance within her household. She quickly called him a couple of names, which he honestly wondered if she even knew the meaning.

"Heathen! Fornicator! You shall step no further into my father's household!"

The look on Marcellus' face was one of surprise. Though he may technically be an enemy of her little brother, he had no animosity towards him or his three sisters. Instead, Marcellus slowly approached the girls, with his arms spread out, signalling that he was no threat.
