"Tion, how long have you been standing for?"

He looked at her quietly and then he looked forward.

"I told you to sit down when I am not in front of you or when I am too busy. Why do you disobey my orders all the time? Is it because I am not your former commander like Esong or you don\'t respect me as your governor?"

If he could not obey her then of what use was he to her? "Do my words mean nothing to you at all? If you were forced into this job perhaps tell me because I can find another personal guard."

For the first time, she saw another expression on Tion\'s face other than anger. She could not describe it other than to say that he softened up.

"My duty is now to you governor, I will guard you forever even though I am not sure how long it will last because my mental strength regressed and it will continue to do so in the future. It\'s not that I want to disrespect you but I just want to give you my best while I still can."

"I will never replace you Tion," she touched his arm and said. " I will find a way to give you back your lost mental strength but I too worry that when I do, you will leave me."

Tion looked hopeful but that little light which was beginning to bud in his eyes was quickly extinguished. There was no cure for it, in a few years the darkness would come for him too.

"Don\'t you believe in me?" She asked him, then she smiled understandingly and said, "It\'s okay, I can understand if you don\'t. For thousands of years research into the darkness has yielded no results. But you should remember that those researchers are not me. I will make a miracle happen, just wait and see. Now come on, let\'s go home."

"Home." Tion whispered in a small voice and he let out a small laugh. Could he really call the governor\'s castle home? He was a disgraced Carlzon, would she be the miracle that saved him from sinking?

Unaware of his multitude of thoughts Scarlet sat in the car and waited for him before it drove off.

"By the way, what happened between Esong and captain Zorl after I left? Did they come to blows?"

"I have been told that they went their separate ways and both men were smoldering when they walked away from each other."

She raised both of her eyebrows at him because of the particular use of the word "smoldering". "That\'s a word I have read and only seen used in romance novels. No one really calls another person\'s gaze smoldering in daily life." She laughed.

"The account was relayed to me by Precious, your other assistant, who also happens to be my daughter. "

"Aha!" Scarlet snapped her fingers, "It had to be a woman. "We are the most dominant readers of romance novels you know."

"I know." Tion responded.

   With that grim look on his face, Scarlet could see a father that was not ready to hear the words romance and his daughter in one sentence so she wisely kept her mouth shut for the rest of the journey. When the car arrived at the castle, she was escorted inside by Tion and two other guards.

"Move into the castle with your family Tion, I don\'t want you to be far away from me. Especially because that threat on my life has not been deal with."

"Yes governor." He nodded.

"The castle is divided into wings, I use the East Wing, my family has the South Wing and Esong\'s family is using the West Wing. The Northern wing has been set aside for my closest guards and maids. I am not stopping you from purchasing your own house but I was told that you want an entire building. It cannot be done right now, you will have to wait until more buildings are constructed but even after you buy a building, I will be expecting you to stay here with me. Will that be okay with you?"

Tion nodded, "Yes governor." It would make his job easier in fact, he thought.

Scarlet left him and she walked to the Eastern wing of the castle. It was the largest of all the wings, with many rooms, including the governor\'s meeting room. This was like the throne room of the emperor, it was where she would hold meetings, balls, host guests and all other governor related business. The castle floors were tiled with a marble like material which was not really marble because it was more exquisite and lighter. The windows were tall and wide but at the moment they were closed. She had asked Carolyn to use some cheap materials to create metallic Knight costumes which were lined up in the hallways. The castle was too large, silent and empty. So much so that she could hear the echoing of her own footsteps. It was lacking occupants, in her wing anyway because it was supposed to be used by her, Esong, Justin and a few maids and guards. For this reason televisions had also been attached to each wall, her goal was to drive out the silence with their nose. It was also lacking greenery on the inside and outside, not even one blade of grass or flower petal was in sight.

Tomorrow, she promised herself, she would embark on the task of planting trees and flowers tomorrow.

"Or next year." Severus appeared next to her and said. "Winter is coming so if you plan to plant anything it must be resistant to the cold."

"Why don\'t you help me buy something from the forum? Get me some flowers that can bloom in the winter and please don\'t waste my crystals." She begged him because Severus was turning into a bit of a shopaholic at her expense. Everything that caught his fancy on the forum had been purchased. Some of the things were useful to her like cold resistant furs, some pills, more armor of different styles but all with the hound insignia and books. He bought her many books on the underworld, deities, medicine, fighting skills and more.

"I bought you another training ground by the way, now you can have one inside and another one outside. I also got these gloves from Lythia, until you learn how to control your refining skills you must wear them in every fight. You must train your hands how to comfortably wield your whips and other weapons with the gloves on."

"Thank you." She donned the black gloves immediately. They were soft and comfortable, stopping at her wrists. She had not said it out loud but she was the tiniest bit afraid to touch people now just in case she sucked the life out of them. When she touched Tion\'s arm, she had been trembling. "Can I get them in other colors?"

"Of course, they only cost fifty energy crystals per pair." He replied. " I like our new house but it\'s too empty, how about I get some underlings too, trained spiritual dogs, some birds and a few other creatures."

"Sounds good to me." She smiled. "Very good."
