Chapter 15 - Chapter 14: Fight

So yeah, Prince Ethan abandoned the gathering and Prince Jake is the one who told them that his brother is not coming because something came up.

When the thing is, Prince Ethan was the one who treats her that time and Yumeko is kinda having a mixed feelings, Sad and Happy and Scared at the same time.

Happy because he's back, Sad because he's giving her a false hope or not? Scared because he is the reason why she had those bruise.

"Who did this to you?" He asked firmly but calm. She didn't respond to him and just stayed quiet. " I'm asking you and you should answer me, Kid."

"But I'm not a Kid!" later on she realized that she had raised her voice towards the Prince. "I'm sorry, Prince Ethan."

After a long awkward silence, She stands up and almost leaving..

"You still didn't answer me, wendel"

"Do I still need to answer you? Like you would believe me."

And so on, She left him in the Medical bay still frowning. How she reacts and why is she like that is all in his curiosity state.

-

It's been a day since Prince Jake arrived in the palace. She's glad that he is not like the other Prince out there.

Prince Jake is so fun to be with and He's respectful.

"I'm good at Math—"

"Really?? C-can you help me?"

Prince Jake stared at her as she puts herself a pleading look for him. He laughs and Pats her hair. "Are you sure you are a Boy? Because you don't look like one" he said as a joke.

Yumeko turned to him and frowns. "I'm a Girl, I'm not a Boy." but he now thinks that it wasn't a joke anymore.

He's been hanging out with a girl these whole day. That relieves him so much.. Knowing that the girl he got to talk to is a woman.

She's a Servant and In that case, Prince Jake just wanted her to come with him to their Palace because the people here aren't treating her well.

" I'll help you in one condition." He said and Yumeko listened. His eyes travels towards her. "Come and stay in my palace. Therefore I will give you a better position not as a servant."

Her eyes saddens but showed a smile to him. Even him, he can see the sadness through her eyes.

"Is it fine if i tell you a secret?" she asked and later on he nods as a response.

-

Meanwhile, Prince Ethan is roaming around the Palace, looking for her existence but can't find it at any corner.

But not until he passed by the yard. Hearing something there so he slowly walks there.

"Thank you, Jake. I'm glad I have you right now, If not.. maybe i'll be in that cell again."

"Come live at My Palace, They will all treat you well there because they will know that you're my—"

Prince Ethan enters. His blood boils seeing him and her too close to each other. Making him forcedly grab and pull her to him from his brother.

Prince Jake frowns. "Now what, Brother? You have a Princess already, You can't do this."

"So what if i have already? You don't have the right to touch this boy." He said and grips her more tight, making her winced in pain and tried getting his grip off.

"You're hurting her! Let go of him, Brother." Prince Jake demands and grabs his brother's collar. "Let go of that boy."

His hands has free her from the pain. But when she looks back at the two prince fighting.

She went between them to stop it. "Stop this, Prince's please."

Prince Jake holds her hand in attempting to leave with her but Prince Ethan didn't let his guard down and grabs her other hand.

Then guards surrounded the three of them. Their attention went to someone.

It's the Princess with the king.
