GLAMOR

Empress Hera＇s POV

＂Empress Hera，Amira has woken up already.＂ - hurriedly reported by Mr. Koala

My heart skipped a bit. I couldn’t seem to believe it. What a big news this would be for Serra. Amira is the biological mom of Serra.

Twenty five years ago…

On a cold dark night. in the hope that I could get to see Lesvos. I traveled so far just to reach the city of Cavour. I know it’s too risky to go up here without any invitation from the Emperor. Even more so without any prior notice at the royal house but considering that I can’t just sit back and watch Amira suffer all alone I would rather gulp my pride and ask for assistance. I＇m hoping that Lesvos could help her and take her under his care -in his sanctuary. Yea，this is the last resort I could think of. Amira is the forsaken heiress of Emperor Calvin of Ekkran and also the half sister of Gregory. Since the time that she chose to go and marry Revous，the chief of the army of Cavour，she has been forsaken by Emperor Calvin because she has been promised in marriage to the Northerners for the sake of alliance. Thus，it has been taken as a mockery by them. For that reason，she has been driven away and forsaken by the Emperor as well as Revous as the chief of the army at Cavour. Their love story escalates hatred and enmity between the Southern and the Northern Realms. Revous was then being lined up at the front line by the next military combat and is believed to have been severely wounded. Upon hearing the news，Amira couldn’t take it and thus attempted to just end her life. But I got to save her just in time and hid her away. That＇s when we had known that she＇s pregnant. Just a month after Serra was born，King Calvin of Ekkran imposed a thorough search throughout the city for his only daughter Amira upon wanting to reconcile with her only daughter and deciding to take her back and continue the said marriage alliance with the Northerners upon discovering Revous to have been believed to be dead. Thus，I run unto Lesvos for help considering that he and Revous became a close friend since then. But just when I was about to approach him at his inner chamber，I heard a terrifying sound of a horn alarming everyone that an attacker has been encamping around the city. Then，I realized that the city of Cavour isn＇t a safe place either -for Amira and Serra. When I came back home，Amira became nowhere to be found as well as Serra. I almost lose hope thinking that King Calvin had gotten them. But thanks to Mr. Koala for protecting and hiding them. Though sad to say because of the run，Amira fell on the cliff and bumped her head real hard causing her into a comma. The pursuer became so afraid that they run back home without saying anything and made up a story that they lost Amira in the woods. Thus King Calvin believed that Amira got devoured by a wild beast all this time. And as for Serra，all that she knew is that I adopted her in the orphanage and was trained to be my successor. Thus，I have trained her real hard as a crown princess reigning unto a fancy realm. Known as the one and only independent realm dominated by an invincible Empress. The great city of Troav. Thus she’s ought to live life in luxury which was everybody’s fantasy. Dazzling dresses clothe her. Shining jewels suspends all around. High walls barricaded between her and the society. She seamed to not belong to any gild in the realm. In front of her, everyone project themselves in pretense trying to get close but they just can’t outwit someone as keen as her. Life for her, is all about negotiations, formality and royalty. With all the crazy rascals hungry for prestige and power, she just won’t let her guard down. Nor let loose of herself to maintain the promising status that she behold inside the realm. She’s like a warrior fighting for Supremacy. But not until King Lesvos subdued us. And now I wonder if he＇s really a friend of Revous or a foe or if he only did conquered the city of Troav solely for dominion or if there＇s something more he has in mind.

＂Prepare the carriage for me please，Mr. Koala.＂ - I finally upon hearing this shocking news

Mr. Koala then hurriedly guided me to Amira. She was treated by a royal doctor here in a secluded place. Upon arriving，I immediately went into her chamber. As did before，I was still mesmerized with her appearance. Even thinness couldn＇t erase the beauty she always had. She then looked at me and I met her gazed. I could see the questioning look of her face.

＂Who are you？＂ -she said and I could feel my strength fading away within me. How？！Lot＇s of things were whirling in my head. How could possibly be this thing to happen？This just can＇t be. I still have lots of things to talk to her.

＂Amira，have you forgotten me？＂ - I asked in sudden horror

＂I don＇t know you. I can＇t remember anything.＂-she perplexly added and began to panick
