"Present to you, the new empress of Ostria, Empress Adelaide of Ostria," the elders announced before Adelaide stood up from kneeling on the floor.

"And present to you also, Lady Sasha, the new Chancellor of Ostria," Sasha stood up from kneeling on the floor and face her new subject. Yesterday was their wedding and now they're the new ruler of Ostria. This is way too fast for them to coop up.

Sasha offered her hand for Adelaide before they both walk up the stairs towards Adelaide's throne. Adelaide was reluctant to sit on her father's throne but this is what she wanted and she shall. Every Ostrian who witnessing this coronation were baffled by how the elders literally didn't acknowledge the firstborn prince from taking the throne.

They were wondering how was it possible for the youngest princess be able to be the very first female ruler of Ostria. Nevertheless, they were relieved that the princess was chosen rather than the princes. Honestly, a lot of Ostrian's even the nobleman never fond of the prince's way of ruling.

Outside the palace, the citizens never felt happier to have a caring and kind empress. They always wanted the princess to rule someday and it seems God has answered their prayer.

"This is a birth of a new era for Ostria. Today marks the day for our first female ruler. All hail Empress Adelaide of Ostria!" The citizen beginning to chant Adelaide's name. Even the nobleman chant together because they know that they're free from the former king's ruling.

"Way will be your first order as the empress?" Sasha asked before bowing her head to the Empress.

"We'll stop the war at the borders. That mine belongs to us and if the neighbouring country doesn't understand that little fact, I have no choice but to make it as a political war instead. There is no need for unnecessary life loss," Sasha was impressed by how wise her wife think.

Not far from the throne room, Gustow and his wife, Anastasia was watching it all from afar when suddenly they both heard the commotion. Gustow noticed the former king was bathing in the palace even though he made it clear that he is not allowed in the palace.

"This is what I call as a power crazy man. I am one as well but I have a mind to make use of. But this man doesn't even have the slight knowledge of being a gentleman. I am applauded for how you rule this kingdom before your ex-daughter take it over right under your nose," the former king pushes himself true.

"You! You're the cause of this," Gustow manages to grab the former king's hand before it gets to hit him.

"What a filthy human being you are. This ends now! Guards! Capture him! He's no king of you now. He's just a deranged man who thinks he still owns this kingdom! CAPTURE HIM!" The guards capture the former king and dragged him to the dungeon.

"Gustow, what's going on?" Sasha asked when she walks down the hallways together with Adelaide. Gustow smile before shrugging his shoulder.

***

"Hmmmm...." Adelaide moans as Sasha leaning into her neck leaving butterfly kisses all over her shoulder. Sasha smile before proceed to kiss the empress on the lips.

"I really should be going now," Adelaide said but she's enjoying her time right now with her wife.

"They can wait 5 more minutes right?" Sasha smiled before lifted Adelaide's chin and kiss her on the lips again. They were making out until Gustow finds them lip locking in a secluded area. He sighs and waited for them to be done.

Once they parted, Gustow clears his throat. Both Adelaide and Sasha turned their heads to Gustow who's watching them since forever.

"We have places to be," he simply said before leaving them alone again. Sasha sigh before facing her wife again.

"Adelaide, I have to follow my mom to Russia tomorrow. Will you be free tonight?" Adelaide nod.

"An empress needs her beauty sleep as well," Sasha smile before giving her wife a peck on the lips for goodbye. Adelaide watches Sasha walk away from her before she went to see Gustow.

"My Empress, you have a few visitors from other countries that wish to congratulate you for your coronation," Gustow lean in.

"They are not important people for your kingdom. The ones that the most important will arrived in a few minutes. These bunch doesn't have the credibility to make Ostria prosperous," Adelaide nod. He always knew Gustow is an evil politician but not like this.

He's such a straight-forward man!

Adelaide greeted her guest with a smile and make a conversation like an empress should. Gustow was acting as her foreign affair minister. When her first batch of guest leaves the throne room, Gustow leans down and whisper into the empress ear.

"This bunch of guest you will be meeting next is what you should be greeted with a smile and make them feel welcome. They're from the Larove Empire, The Grimaldi's, and the Clemonte family. These 3 representatives will be the death of you if you mess up with this meeting," Adelaide gulp down the lumps in her throat.

"This is serious huh?" Gustow smile at her question.

"Yes... for a small country, you need these powers to back you up. You already have the Vladimir's sources you can use since you're married to Sasha but these guys, they will provide you with the things you need to rule a country.

The throne room was open and it revealed the four most intimidating woman Adelaide has ever meet.

"Announcing the arrival of Lady Victoria Larove, Lady Katharina and Avalynn Grimaldi and Lady Eloise Clemonte," they all bow to the Empress.

"My Empress, Victoria Larove, was just chosen to be the head of the Larove Empire a few days ago. I hate to say this in front of the head of the family but the Larove family is not what it seems anymore. The once great empire being tarnish by their newer generation. I wonder what does the legendary trio sisters will think about their grandchildren's stupid action," Gustow looks down in Victoria.

"Lord Gustow, that is harsh of you to say. Victoria is just 20 years old after all. Don't make it hard on her," Lady Katharina Grimaldi said before smiling at Victoria.

"My sister is the cause of that. I'm sorry," Eloise apologised for what her sister had done to Victoria's family.

"It's fine. My uncle deserves it. I am the direct descendant of the late Christina Larove. My grandfather, told me stories about great grandmother since I was a child. I think I can make the Larove Empire be in its former glory when the trio sisters were the head of the family. So please, I beg of you all, to watch me fix this mess," Victoria bows her head.

"So it was true? That Cathrine wasn't the only one who gave birth to an heir?" Victoria nod when Katharina asked her.

"No, ma'am. My great grandmother also produces two heirs for the family. My grandfather and his sister," Gustow was intrigued.

"That's mean you're the real Larove?" Victoria nod.

"And I will fix what had happened. I am embarrassed that the great Larove name being scoff on," Gustow smiled.

"Have you consider marrying into the Vladimir?" Victoria was surprised! She never expected that at all. The empress facepalm herself when she notices Gustow was luring Victoria into his family again.

"I am homie but, as my great grandmothers, I am only into ladies," Victoria politely decline.

"Oh, don't worry. I have a niece that's about your age. Her name is Asha, the empress sister in law," Victoria was caught in the middle. She doesn't know how to react to this at all.

"My God Gustow. Don't plan your own nieces future without her consent," Lady Avalynn said before Victoria had a nervous breakdown.

"Hmmm, that's true. Anyway, for the real reason for today's meeting, have you all consider to be allies? As bad as it sounds, the Larove still owns a lot of property across the globe thanks to Viola, Eloise's sister. And the Grimaldi's, I can't ignore the fact that you two built such a strong empire in Maestropolitan. And Eloise, a multi-trillion company that you built on your own together with the mischievous squad you called as friends, the amount of connections you have is impeccable," Gustow walks down the stairs and faces them.

"If we get to be allies, 10% of the diamonds that the Ostrian excavated will be given to you as compensation. Of course, you'll receive recognition from the empress herself and you can get a first glance of Volin's experiments that will benefit everyone. What do you say, ladies?" Gustow waited for them to give him the answer.

"Agree," Victoria said.

"We will agree to those terms," Katharina and Avalynn agreed as well.

Now it's time for Eloise to make her own decision. Gustow needs Eloise resources when it comes to blackmailing. The Clemonte has everything when it comes to information.

"Agree," Gustow laughed. The empress sigh in relief.

"My Empress," Sasha kneels on one knee when she went to see Adelaide on the balcony of the empress's office.

"Can you stop being so corny. Come here and hug me," Sasha smiled before she hugged the empress from behind as they look at the majestic view of the city of Ostria.

"I have a surprise for you," the empress said while enjoying her time with her wife.

"What is it?" Sasha asked before somebody clearing their throat behind them. Sasha turned around to see her students smiling at her. One of them even carries a child with her. Sasha can't believe her eyes.

"Hey miss Sasha, don't tell us you forget all about us," Clayton said while Alyssa, his girlfriend waving at their former teacher.

"I thought, before you fly to Russia, we should celebrate your birthday, together with your former students that you literally change their life for the better," this time, it's Adelaide who hugged her wife from behind.

"Miss Sasha, meet my son," Alani smiled before handed her son to Sasha's hand. The baby was too fragile for Sasha that she afraid that she'll accidentally hurt the baby.

"What is this? I thought you want to be a parent. Are you telling you're afraid of holding a baby?" Adelaide smiled. Sasha was too speechless to say anything.

"How did you ... when did you .... wait, aren't you guys in college? Guys, don't skip classes!" Her former students laugh at her response.

"Miss Sasha, it's the weekend!" Alyssa chuckled.

"Not us. We're working and learning to take over our parent's business," Clayton smiled, proud that he even said that. All his life, he never thought of taking over his father's business. Knowing Sasha has changed a lot of their perspective on life.

Before they would only think that everything will be provided by those who work for them or by their parents but now, they know in some point those who work or their parents might be gone someday and they need to know how to survive on their own. They were all grateful that Sasha never gave up on them.

"Miss Sasha, you're not going to continue to be a teacher?" One of her former students asked.

"Who said anything about quitting as an educator? I love being a teacher and I will continue my profession," Adelaide smile at Sasha for believing in herself.

"But, aren't you the chancellor for Adelaide?" Alyssa realised she just called the empress by her first name.

"I'm sorry, that's stupid of me," she apologised but Adelaide waved it off.

"Come on guys. You don't have to be so worried about breaking the law. We're friends and friends shouldn't bow to each other," Alyssa smile at Adelaide.

"Come to think of it, it's kinda weird to see you marrying our own teacher huh. Thank God that Miss Sasha isn't a creepy old dude," Clayton chuckled and so does the others.

"You guys were in such a forbidden love between a teacher and a student! I'm glad it all works out," he added. Sasha and Adelaide look at each before facing their friends.

"I'm glad it all works out too," Sasha said with a smile.

***

*A Year Later*

Both Adelaide and Sasha stand in front of to a double storey house. They were both informed by one of their maids that all four of Adelaide brothers were getting married this morning. Adelaide was curious and asked Sasha to accompany her to the event. 

"Seems like they used to live poor now," Adelaide said since she's nervous about crashing a wedding ceremony.

"Yea. Seems like you make the right choice to kick them out from the palace. They manage to get a job, and even started their own family," Adelaide smile when she heard her wife's words.

"How weird for them to get married at the same time huh. I heard about join marriage but all four at once? That's ridiculous," Sasha giggled before offering her hands for Adelaide to hold. They both begin to walk towards the front door and enter the house.

Adelaide looks around and was impressed by her brother's achievement. Since everyone in the backyard for the ceremony, they seem alone inside the house. They walk through the living room and went to the backyard. As the empress step out, everyone, including the bride and groom were surprised, speechless.

"The Empress!" The guests were bowing down as Adelaide and Sasha walk down the aisle to her brothers.

"I'm sorry for interrupting. It's just, I heard about a wedding and I thought I should be here," the former princes were speechless to see their little sister even here.

"I'm sorry for being harsh towards you all. I just, I was driving by my own anger and me...." Albert, the oldest brother suddenly kneel followed by his newly-wedded wife in front of the Empress. Soon the other princes and their wife followed suit. Adelaide was surprised by their gesture.

"We're supposed to be the one who seeks an apology from the Empress. It was our fault that something that horrible happened to you," Albert said while keeping his head low.

"But, if you hadn't kick us out from the palace, we wouldn't be meeting our wife. They were maids in the palace that help us a lot until we manage to get to our own feet," Henry said while also keep his head low.

"Rise, my brothers. There is no need for this. You know, mommy really misses you all. Why don't you come to the palace sometimes and meet her," the former princes look up to their sister who smiling at them?

"Do you forgive us?" Martin asked.

"Yes! Of course, now give your sister a hug, please. Like old times," the princes smiled before they all hugged the Empress. Adelaide has been long for this and now she manages to face them. Sasha watches this with stoic looks.

She does not find it wise for her wife to forgive them easily. They should be tortured to death for all she cares about. After their short reunion, the continue the ceremony and with the empress joining in with her chancellor.

"Oh come on! Smile a little. Why do you have to be so grim about it? I was the one who suffers from their action and even I can forgive them," Sasha doesn't respond to what Adelaide had said.

"Is it wise? They fucking ruin your life for heaven sake," Adelaide placed a finger on Sasha's lips.

"Hush! You don't speak of that anymore. I forbid you," Adelaide glared.

"Now you want to use your authority on me? I owned you," Adelaide smiled.

"Oh, now you want me to be submissive in front of my people? How dare you," Sasha noticed something when she turned.

"Looks like your about to be an aunt," Sasha pointed at Albert's wife who seems to be a little ... extra.

"Oh, yea. She's with child. I can't wait to see my niece or nephew," Sasha finally smile.

"Oh, now you like children? How rare of you," Adelaide blushed.

"Look, it's not like I don't want a child. It's just I am scared of having one. What if I can't bear a child for you? What if ...." Sasha sighs heavily.

"We've gone through so many checkups to know that you're more capable of having one. When you're ready, we can spend a couple of weeks in Volin for the process, okay?" It's Adelaide turn to sigh.

"Okay," Sasha smiled before kissing her temple.

"Right, what shall we do about your father? He's been delusional enough in the psychiatric hospital," Adelaide shrugged her shoulder.

"I don't think this is something we should discuss in a wedding ceremony," Sasha smiled.

"What? I killed an assassin on our wedding day. What's the harm in talking about your father now?" Sasha smirk.

"Anyway, fine. We can talk about something else," Adelaide wrapped her arms around Sasha's.

"So, are you ready to be a principal?" Sasha nod.

"But, why ... juvenile kids?" Adelaide hummed.

"Because you're the only one who can teach them. Besides, I remember how you literally force your student to make good choices and look at where they stand now?" Sasha shrugged.

"So you think everyone needs the Vladimir family teaching? Honey. You're turning me into my mother, " Adelaide remembered something.

"Where did your mother said she's going with Valentine again?"

"Hawaii,"

"We've been married to each other for more gan a year right? When are we going to have our very own honeymoon?" Sasha chuckled.

"After you figure out how to stop our neighbouring country from stealing our diamond sources. You know how badly it affected our economy since the diamond business is going down. Uncle Gustow will bite our ass if this matter doesn't solve," Adelaide cringes.

"Adelaide, Sasha, wanna join us for our first dance?" Henry invited them both.

"We all know you haven't had any decent dance after you two got married. It's one of the taboos in the palace, right?" Sasha smiled.

"Yes we will," Sasha offered her hand with a smile.

"May I have this dance, with you?" Adelaide took her hand with her reddened cheek.

"Of course," Sasha pulled her wife from the seat and lead her towards the dance floor where her brothers were waiting for them.

"I love you, my empress,"

"I love you, my chancellor... you know, is actually a bad thing for the empress to marry to the chancellor. It's ... forbidden if I may add," Sasha leans in for a kiss.

"I don't care. Loving you in such a forbidden way is much more interesting," Sasha said when she pulled away and follow the rhythm of the song with her wife in her arms.

THE END.
