You had reincarnated, you knew that much. It actually felt nice being back again even if you had no idea where you were or what was going on. The blanket wrapped around you felt like heaven, because of that you stayed quiet.

Too quiet and fell asleep.

The next time you awoke cold air hit your face as someone carried you away from your previously warm surroundings. “Shh shhh little highness…. Shhhh…. Don’t cry or I’ll actually have to go through with it…. Please don’t cry…” The person holding you tightly spoke. It sounded like they didn’t want to harm you but were assigned to do so. At least you knew your status so finding your way home eventually shouldn’t be too hard, as long as nothing happened to you.

If you listened and played your cards right everything would be fine…. Hopefully.

“Where’s the kid gone? Search the streets, make it quick,” Called out a man to a few of his colleagues. For years they had kept you with them, using you for all kinds of purposes and fed you only when you behaved according. Right now in a third escape attempt you hid inside the empty crate near some other supplies. It was relatively close by to where their temporary accommodations where.

Once the yelling and searching settled down the street you were ready to leave the crate only for it to be lifted up. Forcing yourself not to yelp you covered your mouth. This was not going as you had planned.

Finally the crate was placed down once more. Chattering could be heard outside the box, probably the seller and buyer. The discussion’s died down and heavy doors closed moments later.

“Now let’s see… which one first?” The lid to the crate you were in opened moments later. A tall male with long luscious black locks, bright vivid blue eyes and royal attire filled your vision. You paled instantly upon seeing who it was, Emperor Nox.

What caught you off guard was him looking confused then angry and finally settling on disbelief.

“{{user}}?” He questioned uncertain.

“Yes?” You spoke instinctively.

You were crushed moments later into a hug without your consent, then again it was the Emperor who was hugging you.
