On her first day, Rin and Ezekiel went to a Manga Store. She bought a lot of it. Then they went to a bookstore. On the second day, Ezekiel personally became a tour guide for her in his Mansion. The Rheid's Mansion has three floors. The first floor has the 10 Maids quarter room on the south wing. The north wing houses another 10 servants' room. On the west wing, it has 4 guest rooms and the Reception Room where the Archduke receives his guests. Also, on the west wing, there are two large living rooms. On the east wing, it's the kitchen, one small dining room and two large dining rooms.
On the second floor, the Master Bedroom and the Archduchess room is located in the West wing. Aside from their rooms, you can also find an entertainment room or the Private cinema, Private Gym and another living room. On the North, east and west wing, it has 5 rooms on each wing.
Lastly, the Third floor is a Banquet Hall. It can host up to 200 to 300 guests at a time.
Outside the Mansion left part, a large garden with different kinds of flowers can be seen. A green house is erected at the center of the garden. Near the Green house is a place where the Head lady of the house hosts a Tea Party or any gathering that only consists of few invited guests.
On the right part is the garage wherein several High-end cars are housed.
All in all, the Rheid's Mansion in the Capital shows the status of the Archduke. But, it is smaller compare to the Main Mansion on the Rheid's Dukedom, where it has almost a hundred different kinds of rooms aside from the Maids and Servants Quarters.
On the third day, someone came over to the Mansion.
"This is Countess Rosette, she will be your Etiquette Teacher starting next week. "
Her eyes lighten up upon hearing it.
"Nice to meet you Countess. I am Eyrhin. Please take care of me during our lessons. "
The Countess face also brighten up when she saw Rin. Her face is so pretty and innocent. She looked like a girl who is so pure and have never been tarnished by the sins of the world. Her clear light green eyes show that she's not pretending or what.
"I am also pleased to meet you Lady Eyrhin. When the Archduke call my husband about taking me in as an Etiquette Teacher, I was suddenly surprised. Who would have thought that the Cold Archduke has a cute bunny in his house? "The Thirty-Eight-year-old Countess winked at her and deliberately teased the young Archduke.
The Archduke just shot her a cold glance while the Countess pretended not to notice it. She had known the Archduke since he was a child. Her father is the late Archduke's trusted aide. Then, she is married to Count Rosette, son of the late Archduke's other aide. So basically, she and her husband are a brother and sister figure of Ezekiel.
"Oh, didn't you told me that you have something to do? Go on. I'll be with Lady Eyrhin for a while. "
Ezekiel frowned.
"What? Don't worry, I will not eat your precious Little bunny. "
At the end, the Archduke reluctantly leave the two women.
Countess Rosette laugh when she saw his expression. "Wow. It's been so long since I have seen that expression of his. When he was still a child, he used to call me Pretty sister. But now, just looked at him. What a cold brat. "
Rin's eyes lit up. "Oh? So, you know Zhi even from before? "
The Countess suddenly got surprised when she heard her call Ezekiel 'Zhi'.
"Is he okay when you call him 'Zhi'? "
Rin was bewildered upon hearing her question. "Yes. Since we met, I always call him Zhi. Is there any problem with it? "
The Countess smiled. "No. There isn't. Ahm… May I know how the two of you met? "
Since earlier, she has been curious about it.
Rin pursed her lips then smile. "I met him when he was dying. "She said.
Countess Rossette immediately remembered when Ezekiel was reported to be missing. She doesn't know the details but she felt that there is something more than that. "Oh. I apologize for asking such question, Lady Eyrhin. "
Rin shook her head then said, "No worries. I know that you're one of the people he trusts."
The Countess held her hand and pat it gently. "Ezekiel has been through a lot. He changed from a cute child to a Cold person. Knowing that someone like you is on his side, makes me happy. That brat had shouldered the responsibilities as a Head of the Family when he turned 20. All this time, he was always working and alone. I always prayed for him to have someone by his side. And now, meeting that someone… Please don't leave him. Don't let him be alone again. "
Rin felt the sincerity of her words. She gave her a warm smile and nodded. "Don't worry Countess. I will never leave his side. I will not let anyone hurt him. Nor will give them a chance to. And those people who almost killed him that time, they will receive retribution sooner or later. " Rin's eyes turned dim. Her body is emitting a dangerous aura. The innocent and pure girl from earlier, completely vanished.
The Countess did not mind it. No. In fact, she is truly convinced that this girl in front of her is suited to be the next Archduchess. As an Archduchess, wife to the Archduke, she should be kind to her loved once and ruthless to her enemies. The late Archduchess was so kind and gentle. That is why she became an easy target to the Archdukes enemies. She died when someone poisoned close to her poisoned her food. And that was when Ezekiel was only 7 years old.
"Then, I leave him to you Lady Eyrhin. "She said.
Rin nodded and the dangerous aura instantly dissipated. "Countess, please call me Rin. "
"I doubt the Archduke will it. "
"Don't worry. Just please call me Rin and tell me stories when he was a child. "She giggled.
She turned back to a Little Bunny. How cute. "Okay. But you should also call me Sister Sanya."
"Em. Sister Sanya. "
Countess Rossette can help but to rub her hair. She really looked like a Little Bunny. That damn Ezekiel got himself a precious girl like this!! I bet everyone will be surprised about this. She can't wait to see the Capital Beauties reaction when they see the type of girl their prince charming likes! Especially that rude and haughty princess!
After hours of chatting, Countess Rossette left the mansion at 4pm.
"You look so happy. "
"Em. Sister Sanya has a good heart. I told her that we met when you're dying. Is that okay? "
Ezekiel pinched her cheeks then said, "It's okay. But you only met her today and now you are calling her Sister Sanya? "
"Because she is also your sister figure. Is it not good? "
His eyes lighten up. "Em. She is. "
At 5pm, Countess Rossette arrived at their house. She was greeted immediately by her husband and her 20-year-old eldest son.
"How is it? Did she bully you? "Asked her husband.
"Dad, mom is not a kid. "Said her son.
"We don't need to worry. That girl is good and is a perfect match for Ezekiel. And oh, she is the same age as you. ��She answered.
"The same age as me? She's a 20-Year-old girl who still needs an Etiquette tutor? "
Her eyebrow rose upon hearing her son's remarks. "Yes. But don't underestimate her. That girl is not that simple. She looks like a little bunny but she has an aura of a Ruler. "Yes. That's how she felt when Rin emitted a dangerous aura.
"A ruler? How could that be? "His son said still not convinced.
"What is her name? "
"She is Eyrhin."
"Her family name? "Both her husband and son asked.
"Oh. I only got her name. The Archduke also didn't mention anything about it. "
Her husband fell into silence. "Now I'm really curious about the Girl that brat is hiding. "Countess Rossette smiled. "Don't worry, you will meet her sooner or later. But since Ezekiel is so overprotective of her, you should be careful when you meet her. That brat is even jealous with me. "She said then chuckled upon remembering his face earlier. Ah. What a lovely day it is.
