A guard escorted her to a room, which she immediately recognized. Arthur's. The door was shut and she knew that guards would have to remain outside all the time. Emilia collapsed to the ground in tears not making it to a seat in time.

"How cruel can he be?" she quietly said. The room had not been touched, everything was in its place. She stood from the floor and opened the wardrobe. His clothes still hung in there. As she wiped her eyes clear of tears, she stepped towards the window. The square below had only bandits wondering through it. However it was hard to see them as the light was beginning to fade from the sky. She stood there until the first star appeared in the midnight black. A knock sounded at the door and she opened it.

"I have come to escort you to dinner," said Mordred looking at her. "Gaius will be joining us. I promise you he will be taken care of as long as you behave," she nodded.

"I know Mordred," she whispered slightly. He put out his hand for her to take, which she reluctantly did. They walked to the room silently, and she could not help the small movements of her hand, trying to escape. With every move he grasped her hand tighter until eventually, it began to hurt her. She winced slightly but Mordred failed to notice. Gaius was already seated at the table, waiting for them. Mordred pulled her seat out for her as she sat down. The moment the plate of food was put in front of her, she felt her appetite disappear. Mordred raised an eyebrow.

"Are you not hungry dear?" she felt her skin cringe at his term of endearment.

"No, I could not bring myself to eat. Instead could I please take it down to Sir Gwaine and Sir Elyan? They have always been kind to me and I would like to repay the favor if possible," Mordred tilted his head before standing and moving across to her. He placed his hands on her shoulders.

"I am not sure. I mean they tried to fight my men, and killed many of them. Why should I reward them?" Gaius started at her, trying to get her to stop this so she would not be hurt.

"Please Mordred, I beg of you," he smiled wickedly.

"I am not sure," he said, sliding his hands down her arms. She took a deep breath and turned to face him.

"Please," she was on the verge of tears.

"I suppose you can. Just remember my kindness," she nodded and picked up the large plate of food in front of her. "Leave the cutlery here," he said and she once again nodded. She walked out of the room, leaving Mordred and Gaius.

"It is a nice thing you are doing," said Gaius quietly and Mordred turned to face him.

"It is all for Emilia," replied Mordred and Gaius nodded. "I will have a guard escort you back to your room."

'Are we going to read this letter?" said Gwaine.

"Alright," said Elyan opening it and unfolding the pages.

Dear Emilia,

If you are reading this letter then something has happened, something out of my control. You and I have separated, with you being in Camelot. I hope it is not my death and rather something else which will be quickly resolved. However should I not be able to fix this, there are certain things I must tell you. You are the only girl I have ever imagined a life with, the only girl I ever want a life with. My love for you is greater than anything else, and it will always be there for you. I once promised to save you whenever you needed it, and I will. There is only one thing that could ever challenge my life for you and that is Camelot. But even Camelot does not win. What I said to you was true. If I was forced to give up my throne for you I would. I love you, I love you with every part of my heart.

I will always be yours,

Love Arthur

"I honestly do not know what to say," said Gwaine.

"Arthur will be here soon, and after that letter Mordred had better worry about his life."
