"Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Moravas Cleris V," he explained with a sweet smile. His impressive voice flowed warm and friendly. "You passed out while that ugly monster tried to kill you. Thankfully, I showed up just in time. I'm sorry—I didn't mean to disturb or hurt you.
"How are you feeling now? Are you doing better, your majesty?"
V eyed the charming man cautiously, staring him down without a hint of friendliness. Moravas Cleris V? That name's odd. Why the 'V'? That's my nickname—I hate that he's using it too.
"What are you doing here?!" Valeska snapped. She didn't care how rude or improper her tone was. She wasn't in the mood to deal with anyone. I don't need anything from anyone.
Moravas smiled charmingly again, Vienna's biting words unfazed him. He remained calm, scattering glowing magenta beads into the clear lake, where V's pet fish gleefully devoured them.
