Chapter 10 - Chapter 9: How?

"What about this?" The Prince asked her while pointing at the centre of the zone.

She stops staring at the book she is reading and went towards the prince who is struggling to get every details right.

Her scent lures in his nostrils, making him purposely call her to smell the scent she had, For him, it's too tempting to smell her, even if the mask is blocking his face.

"This circle seems to be the X and.." As she continues explaining, The Prince isn't listening, he's just staring at her side view profile of her.

But it stops when Yumeko felt him not listening. "Are you even listening?"

"Huh? I am." He said. She raised a brows on him.

"Then tell me what i just said just now, Prince Ethan Kiln." She said while putting one of her hand on the table as the others holds the back of his chair.

He clears his throat before starting his made-explanation, he looks on the clothe. "This small circle will be the Y and the big is the X and that's why you.." he stops when he straightly looks at her. "...are so damn gorgeous." he whispered but she heard it.

She clears her throat before starting to explain everything to him again. This time, He realized what he said to her, making him stands up and grabs both of her shoulders.

In shock, she was pushed on the shelves by the prince. Still eyes widened. He leans towards her.

"Forget what I said, Wendel." he said and let go of her before grabbing the clothe and left the Library.

Her heart beats fast while staring at the door where the prince left. Lifting her hand and put it on her chest, feeling her heart beating something.

A small smile appears on her face. "Prince.."

But her smile fades once she remembers the rule of him and as for the king for the sake of the next crown. The next King.

Biting her lips while tapping her chest. "How? How can I forget when this is what I'm feeling now?"

She grabs the book before putting it on the top shelves to hide it to anyone who will come in the library. No one should know that book, If someone knows it, She won't be able to go back.

Soon, she left the library and went towards the other direction to go back to her small house she is staying.

Until the night strikes..

Her mind is just thinking of him, Thinking that what if she is a princess just like his princess? Will he still be able to pick her, as his princess that will stay by his side for the entire life?

"This is bad.." tears began to run down her cheeks but still her face is straight.
