I was surprised that I wake up beside her this morning. But thanks to that, our relationship seems better than before. Although I don't really remember what happened last night. It's look like I slept with her, looking at the marks in her body and a lot of scratches in my body. She seems happy thought, I guess it's fine as long as she's happy. This time, I will make sure to protect her properly!
In study room
*salute* "Good morning My Lord, do you enjoy yourself last night?" *smirking*
Ugh, look at him. He's smiling, for some reasons I don't like his smile.
*glance* "Actually, I don't really remember what happened last night. But, it's seem I have an amazing night." *grinning*
*frown* "... For some reasons I don't like that smile of yours. It's feel like you're mocking at me..." *bluntly*
Look who's talking right know
*smug* "It's nothing really. You'll know once you have a wife." *mocking*
*silent* "..."
Ha! He lose again!
*start to get serious* "Alright, put in that aside. Tell me the news of our research magic."
*smirk* "Didn't you stop your research teams and disband them, because they'll only make more report and work load for you, my Lord." *mocking*
*thinking* "Yeah, but we need to continue our research right away. Call that crazy guy as soon as possible."
"We can call him right away my Lord, do you want me to call him right now?"
"No, we'll go to the palace to meet second prince after breakfast. I'll meet him after we got back, just send him a letter first. And call Albern to meet me immediately, I have and urgent task for him." *serious*
*writing* "yes, yes... Do you need anything else my Lord?"
*glance* "I think, we'll need to look for a new assistant. What do you think, Edward?"
*stop writing* "YES! How much are you going to hire, my Lord?" *bright smile*
*disgust* "Don't look at me with that eyes, it's really disgusting. Don't make me regretting my decision already." *frown*
*bright and full of spirit* "I guaranteed you, this is the greatest decision that you ever make. My Lord won't regret it for sure. So, how much are you going to hire, My Lord?" *smiling*
*tch* "Hmph, just hire one or two. We can't take a risk of leaking information."
*enthusiastic* "I understand" *continue writing*
"That's remind me, we don't have any female knight. Find one or two for me?"
*still writing* "Yes, Can I ask why do you need them?" *curious*
"I need them to protect Lydia" *serious*
*glance* "I understand" *finish writing*
"That it for now. I'll clean myself first, you can go to make the additional preparation" *leaving*
*bows* "As your command my Lord."
In the dinning room after breakfast
"My Lord, are you busy today?" *asking with a sparkling eyes*
*quiet* "..." *cold sweat*
*pffts* "Sebastian, our Lord are sweating." *whisper*
*whisper* "I think it's unexpected situation for him. He was frozen like a rock." *giggles*
*irritated* "I can hear it, be quiet you two!" *firmly*
The two of them get quiet, but Edward still smirking weirdly
*sigh* "I will meet the second prince in the palace after this and I don't know when I'll be back."
*sad* "Aren't you promise to never let me be alone again, My Lord?" *sobbing*
*whisper* "My Lord, you need to fulfill your promise." *smirking*
*irritated* "..."
*sparkling eyes* "My Lord?" *begging*
*sigh* "Alright, you can come with me to the palace."
*smile brightly* "It's that alright My Lord?"
*thinking* "It's alright, he will get married soon. I think, his fiancee must be in the palace right now. You can accompany her and helping her wedding preparation or something? Then you won't get bored during my absent, also is a good thing to make some new friend." smile friendly
*cheerful* "Thank you My Lord, then I'll go get prepared. Bella you help me prepare my dress." *standing*
*bows* "Yes, my Lady."
*kiss Verduny cheeks*
Everyone surprised especially Verduny
*smiling happily* "I'll come back soon, my Lord." *leaving with embarrassed*
Verduny still stiff because too surprised of the sudden kiss
*whisper* "My Lord, my Lord... Hang in there My Lord." *whisper*
*annoyed* "Oh, that's right. Edward when you searching for new assistant, don't forget to check their background first." *trying to change the topic*
*surprised* "Congratulation Sir Edward, you finally have some comrades soon. The Lord finally decide to hire more attendants" *smile*
"Thank you Sebastian, I'm so glad that I'm almost crying." *smile brightly*
*getting more annoyed* "Stop it you two, Edward go prepare the carriage!"
*chuckles* "Alright, my Lord. I'll prepare it right away. Later Sebastian." *bows and leaving*
*chuckles* "Be careful, Sir Edward."
"Sebastian, I'm planning to come back in the afternoon or evening. But none know what will happen in the palace, maybe I'll be back a few days later." *pondering*
*salute* "Do you need me to do anything for you, my Lord?"
"While I'm gone if Jared or Albern come, inform them to wait me and let them stay in here. I'll leave their necessity in your hand in my absent." *ordering*
*nodding* "You can leave it to me."
"And if there's anyone beside them looking for me, tell them to come back later and you take a note at their name and their purpose."
"Yes, my Lord. I'll do as your instruction."
"Good, I'll go in my study room for a bit. Tell Edward and Lydia to come if they're ready." *leaving*
*bows* "As your command, my Lord."
A few times later, in the study room
*walk in* "My Lord, the carriage are ready. We can leave anytime." *bows*
*reading a report* "Good job, we wait Lydia and get going."
*knock, knock, knock*
"Edward, open the door!"
"Right away" *Open the door*
*bows to Lydia* "My Lord, the Madam are here."
*walk in* "My Lord, forgive me to make you wait for too long."
*stop writing* "It's alright. You really prepare yourself carefully. You look more beautiful than usual." *smile*
Edward get goosebumps meanwhile Lydia blushed.
*blush* "Thank you, my Lord." *happy*
"Let's go then" *standing and offer his hand to Lydia*
*smile* "Yes, my Lord." *reach Verduny's hand*
Meanwhile in the Palace
"Your highness, His Excellently Duke Verduny will arrived in the palace soon."
*ponder* "He's coming here without noticing me? Is something happen? Did the Emperor called him?" *asking continuously*
"The Emperor don't ask the duke to come today."
"Then most likely he's coming for me. May be he has an important matter to discuss it with me." *pondering*
*come in without warning* "My Prince, what are you thinking so deeply about?"
*glance* "You can leave first, Owen."
"Yes, your highness." *bows and leaving*
*stop working* "What's wrong Mary, are you bored?" *smile*
*hug* "Yeah, you didn't visit me lately even though we 're getting married soon. Aren't you miss me? Why don't you just marry your work instead?" *sulking*
"Really? My bad, I'll visit you as soon as my work finish, okay? How about going to Yakut territory on our next date? Owen said a new restaurant would open there, do you want to go?" *persuade*
*still hugging* "That's a promise then." *smiling happily*
*kissing*
BRAAKKK
"YOUR HIGHNESS, THERE'S AN URGENT MATTER WE NEED TO DISCUSS!"
Verduny coming shouting without knocking
*looking surrounding* "Ah, My apologies for disrupting you two, but can I ask Your Highness times to discuss some important matter with me?" *calmly*
*annoyed* "Your Excellently Duke Amethyst, can you at least knock the door before coming in?" *menacing*
*calm and smile* "Pardon me Lady Alexandrite but, I thought it's fine if I do this since whenever His Highness the Crown Prince come to my manor, he's always coming to my study room like this regardless he know I was working in there. You can ask His Highness himself if you don't believe me." *glance at second prince*
*turn around* "Your highness, is he talking the truth?" *menacing*
*cold sweat and nervous* "Ah... Well... brother Verduny and I are like a real siblings, so is fine. Don't worry Rosemary..." *rolling his eyes*
*ha~ah* "You're too clingy toward him since childhood, even thought you know I don't really like him." *grumbles*
*cold sweat* "Haha... But it seems he brought a companion today..." *trying to change the topic*
*calm* "That's right, I brought my wife right now" *proud*
*walks in and bowing* "Greetings to Your Highness The Crown Prince and Lady Alexandrite, I'm Lydia Amethyst." *smile*
"I brought her, cause she'll get bored in the manor alone."
*confused and disbelieved* "Welcome, sister in law. Don't need to get nervous around me. Although I have come to Amethyst Dukedom a few times already, but I forgot to visit you. Please forgive my ignorant, Sister." *smile friendly*
*smile* "It's fine Your Highness, Your Highness can visit me anytime when he came to Amethyst."
*approaching Lydia* "Then Lady Amethyst, how about you come accompanying me for a bit? Just leave this two idiot alone. They only love their works." *smile*
"Aw.. it's hurt me Mary..." sulking
*turn around* "I'm sorry then, Your Highness." *cold smile*
*stab* "..." *sulking*
*giggles* "Then, I'm will get going, my Lord." *smile*
"Emn, be careful on your way. I'll look for you if I already finish."
"Yes, I'll wait for you then. See you later, my Lord."
The two Ladies leaving the room with holding hands.
