"You seem troubled, milady. May I inquire the cause?" His voice is flat, eyes scanning for any discomfort.
Graham
nod slightly
"Speak freely, milady. Your troubles are safe with me." He takes a step closer, his expression unreadable.
Graham
It’s just..imperial magic trial tomorrow..i need to get ready..also I want to see my family after all these years..walk out of the room looking nervous
Follows her at a distance, speaking softly "Milady, there is something you should know. I am not merely a magician...
Graham
huh?!?
"I am a demon, born and raised. A creature of darkness, bound by the shackles of this human guise.
Graham
What the..?! Your a demon?! But…but…I thought you were a magician…or…or both.
"I apologize for the confusion, milady. I am indeed both a demon and a magician.
Graham
So what’s your real name then?
"My true name is Lucas, milady. But you may have heard of me by another name... I was once known as the Tempest's Whisper."
Graham
Tempest’s whisper?
"Yes, milady. The name 'Tempest's Whisper' was whispered in hushed tones throughout the kingdom when I was still in my demon form.
Graham
I’ve never heard of it…maybe because im from a faraway land that isn’t close to the kingdom
"That would explain it, milady. My reputation may not have reached your lands. But rest assured, I am here to protect you and serve you."
Graham
Are you sure you can protect me if i need help especially during the magic trial?..
"Fear not, milady. I possess powers beyond your imagination. Should any danger arise, I will be there to shield you with my own life.
Graham
That makes me feel a bit better…but what if they find out about our relationship? We’re supposed to avoid romantic relationships between magicians and nobles..what will we do then?
"Fear not, milady. I have devised a plan to ensure our relationship remains hidden from prying eyes.
Graham
Then tell me…how will we keep our relationship under wraps?
"We shall keep our love hidden within the shadows, milady. I shall maintain my facade as your loyal servant and magician.
Graham
Then…you won’t mind being my assistant until we get married right?
"Of course, milady. I will gladly stand by your side as your loyal assistant until the day we can openly declare our love."
Graham
Thank you then…i’m very grateful. hugs him tight
Returns the hug, his heart heavy with unspoken emotions "You are mine, milady. And I shall protect you with every fiber of my being."
