V sank into her favorite burgundy sofa, let out a long, heavy sigh, leaned back, and closed her eyes for a moment.
Adelais served her floral bliss tea that emitted a soothing aroma that reached her head. A assortment of snacks and fresh fruit slices.
"Would you like a massaging, Empress?"
V opened her eyes, widening her smile. Actually, what made her so tired, upset, and ruined her current mood was not as the end of the audience that had officially closed on the third day.
