“ I shook my head. A divorce trial may hurt Sovieshu’s reputation, but my name may be scarred as well. It’s not that I had a moral problem, but I was going to remarry the king of another country. Complicating the political situation would only make that more difficult.
“I accept the divorce.”
The minister closed his eyes gravely as murmuring broke out into the room.
“And ask for permission to remarry.”
The moment I finished speaking, the mood changed completely. The air stilled into a shocked silence and the High Priest’s eyes flew open. Everyone glanced at each other, unsure of what they heard.
Sovieshu looked at me confusedly, a frown furrowing his brow. The High Priest was in a daze.
“Empress Navier…remarry?”
Instead of answering, I stretched out my hand and pointed to one place. As if on cue, a man wearing an embroidered veil that obscured his face burst into pleasant laughter.
“Do I come up now?”
The silence was broken by the murmuring of the crowd again. The man walked through the court and stood next to me. When he took off the veil, Sovieshu leapt to his feet.
What was he going to say? Would he give me words of anger, or would he wish me well? He certainly wouldn’t say he was happy that I was remarried. Sparks seemed to fly from his eyes, so it couldn’t be good.
“Empress. No, Navier. What is wrong with you?”
Surprisingly, his voice was relatively calm. While the fire in his eyes was undeniable, his tone was so steady that he didn’t seem angry at all.
“This marriage proposal, explain it.”
I relaxed in front of him, then replied with a nod.
“I know the answer you want.”
He wanted to know why I got married right after our divorce, and why it was with Heinley. However…
“I know, but I won’t answer.”
I kept my voice as level as possible.
“It’s none of my ex-husband’s business.”
Sovieshu almost staggered backwards at my response.
“Ex-husband?”
He stared at me with an incredulous look.
“Ex-husband?”
He opened his mouth, and sharp bark of laughter escaped from his lips.
“Yes, ex-husband. I’m your ex-husband…”
Sovieshu’s composure broke. A blue vein pulsed on his forehead and he smiled in defiance. He took one step closer to me, his voice was dangerously low as he spoke.
“I am still your emperor. And I won’t allow my ex-wife to get married.”
