Suddenly a knock on door comes. Butler voice comes and said: milord! The prince is here! And he's not happy!
Dariush thought: prince!? And he's not happy!? Ok calm down dariush. Let go calmly.
He takes a deep breath and stand up. And opened the door of office and said to Butler: is he in living room?
Butler nodded and gestured him to follow him: yes, this way please. And Duchess is there too.
Dariush thought while walking: Eira is there too? I think she was reading book. Because last night when I was sleep, I remember that she loves reading.
Once in living room. There is two leather and luxurious couch. And between them there is a low and long table. Sunlight is casting on room through the leaves of the tree behind the big window of living room. At same time fire place was lit. Making the atmosphere cozy despite the cold outside.
Eira was sitting in right couch and prince who has blue eyes and mid-high length blonde hair with very luxurious blue-whit attire is sitting on another couch.
His face is combination of both elegant and beauty. And his body is lean and elegant.
His expression calm, but his eyebrow twisted slightly.
Dariush thought: the second prince of Nari empire. 'Kian Mehrzad' well known for his beauty. His quite feminine look and Manly behavior.
Dariush said casually with a faint smile on his lips: welcome to my mansion. And look like you aren't happy prince.
Kian expression softened slightly:hello to you too. And yes I am not happy.
Dariush sit beside Eira and said: so what happened? Or let's say, go straight to the point.
Kian sigh deeply and said: very well. The thing is I don't like how everyone try to bastardize and antagonize you. But I know what you did too. Even after I consider every good and bad things you did. I can't accept it and now I am here to say I want to help you. And it's not a request, it's a order. (His expression shows defiance)
Dariush thought for a moment: I expected it. Especially from someone who act on logics and whatever he thinks is right. Beside now I remembered, for a long time I was his teacher. Or let say this body was his teacher, not me. But I think it's going to be a very good idea to take help from someone who is the most favorite among the other Species after me.
Darius smirked playfully and said: very well, I take your help, but don't think I will let you do everything you want. This is my house and estate. So from now on you are my right hand. (He nodded for acknowledgement)
At same time when Eira was watching her expression gradually softened. Then she said playfully: don't worry dear Kian, your days are going to get more fun. Especially with dariush when he's grumpy.
Kian chuckled softly. At same time dariush said with teasing tone and a smirk on his lips: grumpy? Maybe. But you need to wait until I start teasing you both relentlessly.
Both Kian and Eira chuckled heartily. And Eira challenged playfully: bring it on!
Dariush chuckled too: oh, I will bring it on. But not now dear. I will do it in right time.
At same, time a maid comes with three tea cup. Placing it in front of each one. At same time fire place cracked slightly. The sound and warmth of the fire made the Atmosphere cozy. The tree outside moved slightly from the wind, making the sunlight on the room moves too.
The maid leave. The three of them sip their tea and then Kian asked from dariush: so Mr dariush, what do you want to do first.
Dariush thought: he asked a good question. I need to gather information about this world and everything else around myself. But most importantly I need to make the people in my estate trust me and more. Because almost 50% of my political power is from the people.
Dariush response to Kian: first I need to gain trust and respect that I lost Among the people. Not only the people in my estate but non of the people in Nari empire doesn't have any respect toward me, they doesn't trust me, some fear and some hate me.
At same time he thought again: before I die and I get reincarnate to this body, my name was Amir, a billionaire. But now that I am in this body with every sin it's has, i need to show redemption and gain the reputation that the previous dariush destroyed, not as Amir but as the new dariush that is smarter and better.
Kian nodded after hearing dariush response: that's a very good starting point. And I have a suggestion; help people, but not always, do it but like you are really trying to redemption and really change, so people start can trust you gradually.
Eira added too: I will help you too, standing right beside you always, to show how much you can and you want to change. I will make people believe that you are not like before... Maybe, but anyway I will help you as much as I can.
Dariush expression softened and ruffled her hair affectionately. And said warmly: thanks dear. I appreciate your help. (He turned to Kian) and I appreciate your help too.
Kian nodded with a soft smile and said: no problem, and I am helping because you are were my teacher and the only one who always helped me when I needed it.
Dariush let out a soft chuckl: thanks again, I will repay you one day. Until that day comes I really appreciate your support and help in these bad days.
Suddenly a butler hurried in room and said: we have a big problem! fire!!
