Chapter 14 - Chapter 13: It's Gathering day [F*ck the gathering, It's the moments]

The day has come and the servants were making foods for the royale gatherings.

Both Prince's came back with their mother. Every servants and ministers bow and welcomed the Royale family.

Even Princess Nami dressed nicely for them. After all, she's still the prince's woman. All are invited yet The Princess forbids her to not go.

She stayed in the Library reading the book. It's thick but it's important so she needs to learn those before it rain again.

The outside is full of servants setting foods on the tables as others greets the visitors. Only the place that was silent was, The Library.

The door opens..

"Who are you?" a voice asked.

Yumeko turns around, seeing a guy wearing a clothes just like Prince Ethan but different color. All she's thinking right now is..

"Your Highness, Do you need to use the library? If so, I will leave the space for you." she said before bowing and walks pass him but he held her hand, stopping her. "Your Highness?"

"You're hurt." He said. Her heart beats, he pulled her and let her sit on the chair again. "Tell me who you are and what happened to you."

She blinks before looking down. "I'm Yumeko Wendel Brie, Your Highness and.. This is nothing."

The Prince raised a brow but warmly smiles to her and lifts her chin up. " I'm Prince Jake Lev, Prince Ethan's Brother."

Once he said that she tensed up and immediately stands up and bows to him. "I..I'm sorry for acting so—"

"It's fine, It's cool by the way, drop your honorific, it's just me and you here." He said and his eyes travels to her damaged side lip, There's a cut there, he don't know what's happening to him whenever he sees something like this. "That is not okay,"

"The what?" She asked. He pointed at her lips, Being a total careless, she winced in pain when the fresh wound cut was touched by her hand. "Aw."

"See, That's not fine. Follow me, Wen." He said and walks out of the library, with him followed by her.

Others trails their eyes towards them. Maybe they are wondering why the prince is with an intruder.

On their way in the medical bay, One of the royals saw them.

Ofcourse, It's Prince Ethan, He's with his mother and the king with princess nami holding onto him.

His brows frowns, making him remove the Princess's hand clinging on him. "Prince? Where are—Prince!"

Prince Ethan abandoned them. His eyes were glued on the way the two took, Towards the Medical bay.

Before he enters, he heard their conversation.

"I was just an Intruder here and being an Instrument is my punishment." Her voice seems to not claim that she was just more like it. "Aw, please be gentle, Jake-"

As soon as Prince Ethan heard that, he opens the door, seeing his brother and yumeko close to each other as Prince Jake treats her wound.

Their eyes went to him.

Somewhat, there's something he felt that time, It's not like he will ever like a guy also right? He thought that. That would be a big no no for their family.

But he can't help it.

"Get your hands off of him, brother." Prince Ethan said and went towards them, pulling her towards him.

This time his stare made her stop breathing. She can feel those behind his mask.
