Chapter 61 – The Princess’ Pet (2)
Chloe then really left.
Now, there are only the two of us left in the large drawing room, the princess and I.
“Hmm… “
A cold stillness flows. The princess is standing with her chin on her chin and staring at me hesitantly.
Princess, in terms of rank, she is practically the best of everyone. With someone like that staring at me, it’s not at all burdensome.
“Uh… Hmm… “
And first of all, Chloe kept nodding her head, so I did it… Gift? Master? Thing? What does that mean
I gulped at the gaze that seemed to pierce me and looked around. I need something to break this awkward atmosphere.
“Ugh… Ah!”
The luxurious staff placed next to the hanger, wouldn’t it be possible to refresh the atmosphere by using that?
“Now, wait a minute… ! I’ll show you some magic… “
“It’s okay, come over here and have a seat.”
“Yes? But… “
“Are you going to disobey me? If you attach a quadruped to my horse one more time, then I will take it as a challenge to the authority of the imperial family.”
Saying so, how can I disobey…
I was about to run to the clothes hanger, but I had no choice but to turn my steps.
Eonggeojuchum, put your butt on the chair opposite the princess. He straightened her waist as neatly as possible and waited for the princess to start talking.
However, contrary to my expectation that the princess would bring up something of her own, she just leaned forward and gently stroked my hair.
“Huh… It’s a nice scent. Is it Felicien? It seems to be on the Saint-Clair side… “
After muttering something of her own, the princess took my hair and inhaled the scent deeply.
Actually, do you have a smell fetish or something like that?
With such blasphemous thoughts in mind, I stared at the princess’s swollen chest, then raised her head in amazement when I realized belatedly that she was committing her own disrespect.
Of course, I knew the basic etiquette, so I didn’t make eye contact. I rolled my eyes moderately and looked around.
“It’s okay, so you can make eye contact with me.”
“Ugh… Yes.”
The wall, slightly lighter than mine, loftyly looks down at me. Perhaps because of the elegance that comes out of every action, he doesn’t look arrogant at all.
Since the princess’ eyes were drawing arc lines, I sneakily raised the corners of her mouth. I felt like I was going to get caught if I didn’t.
…Anyway, what should I do now?
Chloe said she could just hang out with me all day, but I have no idea what to do.
“Yeah… Princess… ?”
In the end, I couldn’t stand the awkwardness and opened my mouth with the intention of bringing up miscellaneous stories.
Smart-
“Oh, wait a minute. Come in Sir Cedric!”
Just in time, the sound of knocking outside the door forced me to shut my mouth again.
It’s also embarrassing. If I had known this was going to happen, I wouldn’t have left the villa…
“Excuse me.”
As soon as the princess’s order came, the door opened and a man called Sir Cedric entered the drawing room.
The expressionless Sir Cedric prepared her manners for the princess, bowed her head, and spoke to her.
“Iris. How, did you have a harvest today? “
“Whoops. Of course. Did you become friends with such a cute Miss Rainier?”
“Chi, be friends… ?”
Uh, could this be it?
Is it a situation where the other person is thinking comfortably, but I was awkward and kept my distance?
I feel sorry for nothing. Princess, you actually wanted to get close to me. That’s why Chloe asked me to hang out with the princess.
Maybe she just didn’t know how to make friends because the princess was a member of the royal family. Then I’ll have to lead!
“No, that’s right! We became friends!”
“Oh oh… ! Thank you, Iris! It seems you were satisfied this time.”
“Yes. It was so satisfying that I almost laughed out loud.”
The princess said that to Sir Cedric with a grin.
The red hair in the sun shines, making it even more dazzling. Are all members of the royal family caught up?
“Sir Cedric, then could you prepare the tools?”
“Ah yes! I will colonel you soon!”
“Equipment… ?”
Sir Cedric bowed his head and immediately left the drawing room.
Tools, suddenly what tools?
However, before she could question it, the princess suddenly spoke to her.
“Should we talk until Sir Cedric returns?”
“Ah, your princess… !”
“Haha, you don’t have to call it that hard.”
“Well, then… ?”
The princess took my right hand and placed it on her desk, then she covered it with her palm and rubbed it gently, continuing her words.
“I am a person who is far from being ostentatious, so just call me Iris.”
“But you’re the princess… “
“Is it possible that I was the only one who was friendly? I would never have thought I would commit such an offense… “
“Oh no! Ugh… Miss Iris! Will this be enough?”
“Um, great. Whoops.”
Again, that smile from before.
He raised the corners of her mouth one by one and gently curved the corners of her eyes. She is a beauty, so I feel that she is beautiful, but… Perhaps because of the uniform, she felt that she was somehow cool.
In the first meeting, I was afraid of her because of her red hair and the uniform with the hilt stuck in her waist, but now I see that it was all in vain.
You are such a kind and gentle person. After all, there are not only bad people like Rafe and Jihyun in the world.
Right now, there are three good people around me, including Ab, Chloe, and my new friend Iris, which adds credibility to my hypothesis that there are more good people than bad people.
“Lol… “
“Hmm? Is there anything that makes you feel good?”
Iris-sama tilted her head and looked at me.
I let out a laugh and answered in a lively voice.
“It’s been a while since I’ve been out and talking to people like this! After just lounging around in the villa for a few days…”
“Alone? Then… Have you been confined to the villa all along?”
“Yes… To?! No no! It’s not confinement, it’s just a ban on going out? There’s a reason for that hehe… “
I did not bother to explain the details. It’s not a story worth talking about, and I don’t like that either.
What is certain is that Ab has advised me to rest and puts me in the villa.
Ab said that I should take a break… It’s not that I don’t quite understand.
Since Rafe and Jihyun beat her every day, her mental state might have seemed young to others.
No matter how good I was, it would have been unreliable from Ab’s point of view, who worried about me more than anyone else.
However, since I know the inside story, I can assume that I can understand it… Miss Iris is not like that.
Iris-sama tilted her head, wondering if she was puzzled by my lack of explanation.
“Is that the case?”
“Hmm… There’s something I’ve done to disappoint someone. So I guess he was a little angry. These days, he doesn’t come to see me and he doesn’t contact me… “
It is unavoidable. It was because Ab was also busy doing something.
Iris-sama hardened her expression to see if she had a different opinion from me and asked again.
“Does it make sense to imprison people just for that reason?”
“Is that so… ?”
“I don’t know who he is, but he’s such a bad person! Is that perhaps Miss Rainier’s lover?”
“Yes… “
“Jeongmaal… “
Iris-sama covered his mouth and lowered his head. The way he shakes his shoulders must be… It feels like crying.
“Iris-sama… “
It’s impressive. To even cry for me!
The same goes for Chloe and Iris-sama. Everyone says Ab’s judgment is wrong, Ab is bad.
Maybe Ab really didn’t like me?
That’s right, there’s no way you’d lock someone you really love in a remote place like that. It makes me unable to meet people and makes me starve.
Besides, he didn’t keep his promise to come back in 3 days.
Even if I miss you, I patiently waited for that day, but all I have to say is that it will be a little late?
When I think of that, tears well up in my eyes. It must be speculation, of course, but… Since I haven’t seen him for several days already, I have bad thoughts for no reason.
“Suddenly… Did Av hate me? She used to always want to be with me… “
“Hmm… I’m not sure because I’m not the person involved, but maybe he’s feeling a desire for monopoly?”
“Monopoly… Are you cursing?”
Iris-sama carefully got up from her seat, circled the desk, and approached the chair I was sitting on.
Then he sat down at the desk right in front of me, legs crossed,
“Yes. I don’t want to hand over Miss Rainier to anyone. That’s why they are locked in a villa where no one can see them.”
“Um… No. Ab is not that kind of person… “
“So, could it be that she is cheating on you?”
With a very serious expression, he spat out the same words as thunder from the sky.
“…Yes?”
The trembling of my horse’s tail… It was a natural and unavoidable phenomenon.
Of course. The wind… Abgar? Nonsense.
“I heard that she doesn’t visit Miss Rainier these days and doesn’t communicate well?”
“Yeah, that’s right… But… “
“Has there been any suspicious circumstances before then?”
“Speaking of suspicious circumstances… “
She gulped for a moment and then,
“Either she gets close to another woman, or she doesn’t say that she loves me well… I mean.”
Waving her two fingers back and forth, she said.
“Ah, uh… ? Abga… ? Oh, no. It’s not… Place… “
It won’t be. Because Abbey loves me.
But when did she say at the end that she loved her?
She didn’t tell me that she loved her even when she communicated not long ago. When was the last time… I do not know.
Besides, you’ve been away from me lately.
Jihyun is a lesbian, so even if you say you feel safe, Chloe… ? If she was with Chloe, who is prettier than me, she would be heartbroken…
Smart-
Before I could think further, I heard a knock. When Iris-sama replied to come in, Sir Cedric opened the door and entered.
In his hand was a flat sheet covering a cloth with golden embroidery on a red background.
“Iris-sama, I have fulfilled what you said.”
“Ah! Thank you Sir Cedric! Leave it here on your desk and leave.”
“Yes.”
This is not the problem. There’s something else that’s important.
I really want Abga… ? And with Chloe… ?
Ay no way That sweet Chloe, trustworthy Ab, is cheating on me… ? It can’t be.
My head is complicated. Even if you try to empty your head, doubts fill up again, and even if you try to empty your head again, more doubts fill up.
Iris-sama stretched out her hand and made me direct my gaze to herself, then smiled cheerfully.
“Then, Miss Rainier, Miss Rainier, why don’t you try something exciting today?”
“A deviation?”
“Yes. Deviant, Miss Rainier can’t live without being deceived. Isn’t it?”
Something is wrong.
If you just listen to Iris-sama… It just seems to be true that Ab is cheating on me.
There’s no evidence, it’s all just heartbreak, so why… ? Why is Iris-sama so sure?
“That… No matter how much, there is no evidence, so I doubt it… “
Thanks to my thoughts going that far, I was able to get out of the endless darkness of doubt.
After all, doubt only eats away at me. There is nothing good to do
I calmly pushed the doubt to a corner of my heart and tried to smile.
“Chew.”
“Town?!”
After opening my mouth by pressing my cheeks, I lost my composure as Iris-sama forcibly kissed me.
Surprised, I struggled with my arms and when the chair started to tip over, Iris-sama hugged me like a shotgun, so I was able to avoid falling.
“Huh? Oh, Miss Iris… ?”
Something passed through Iris-sama’s tongue and went down his throat. At the same time, hot energy began to rise from the bottom of the body.
“Today, I will truly love you. How is it? The love of the imperial princess?”
“Now, now, be playful! If you suddenly… “
I couldn’t speak to the end. It was because Iris-sama, who sat me down in the chair again, took out a soft crystal ball from the cloth.
Iris-sama waited for my eyes to turn to the crystal ball, then tapped the crystal ball twice to play something.
“…Uh?”
I was about to get up from my seat, but stopped at the unbelievable content of the video. He blinked his eyes as if possessed and straightened up again.
Meanwhile, Iris-sama quietly raised my left hand…
“Ah… ? This video… Ah, Iris-sama, what the hell is this… ? No, that’s nonsense…”
“I’ll love you so that you don’t have any gloomy thoughts… Please be my lover for today, Miss Rainier.”
In the place where the golden ring that Abu had given me should have been, I put a silver ring with a large diamond on it.
It is a very large ring. It is a ring so large and beautiful that my senses of Treasure No. 1 fade.
Until then, I was unaware of that fact and was staring at the crystal ball with concentration as if I was going to be sucked into it.
