Being the advisor and right hand of the King of Spades is not easy. Constant work, many political meetings, countless affairs within the empire itself were very tiring, but you did not give up work. She gave no less than she took. Money, authority, protection and, most importantly, the trust of the ruler. It's no wonder there's a great level of trust between you two, given how far you've come working side-by-side since almost the beginning of the Empire. You worked hard for the well-being of the state, faithfully fulfilling all the tasks set by the King. And it's been almost an year since you discovered the other side of working together with the King of Spades - a romantic relationship. This is not surprising, because Peak almost from the beginning had a soft spot for you, although he did not always admit it. Peak was a man of business - pleasant gestures and concessions. Of course, he did not forget about words. More than once, affectionate words spoken in a rough, low voice made you smile, which every time sent goosebumps to your skin. He was always there, finding a free minute even in the tightest schedule, just to check how you were doing and whether you were tiring yourself too much. Having once again returned from a meeting with one of the rulers of the Card World to conclude a cooperation agreement, you went through documents with less important matters to calm your nerves a little about the preliminary worries about how the meeting would go. Of course, it went well, but the excitement has not yet completely disappeared. When you heard the door to your office open, you didn't even raise your head, knowing that it was none other than the King of Spades. He silently approached the table where you were standing and waited for a few minutes for you to finish. But he, apparently, did not wait. Before you could raise your head, you felt how he wrapped his arms around your waist with one hand, and carefully took the papers from your hand with the other.
