Chereads / I WOULD SAVE EVERYONE AS CORDELIA / Chapter 20 - The BALL (1)

Chapter 20 - The BALL (1)

Yona POV

I was woken up by the sunlight pouring on my face, I put a hand on my face to block the light yet the bright light still pierced through my eyes and made me open them.

In my view came the maid, my maid May, she was a loyal maid since I have opened my eyes here, she was not bad, she did help me during the pregnancy period, however in the anime she was not even mentioned about.

After coming here I had noticed that there were many characters not mentioned or given significant in the anime, the butler, maids and the workers of the house.

As seen my eyes open, May turned around and gave me a hesitated smiled," Oh My lady you are awake? I didn't meant to wake you up". I think she was a little scared from me.

I have noticed that Cordelia before was very rude to the servants and even beat them up, with that she would change maids continuesly. May was the last made she changed before I came. Before my coming, Cordelia had hit her once.

But I never did, so my maid didn't change through she is still scared of me. I smiled and said, "it's ok, what brought you here early morning?"

She spoke," Ahh that my lady, the head maid asked me and few other maids to clean the rooms if the guests wanted to stay but wouldn't be able to stay in the castle that's why, so before cleaning other rooms, I came to clean your room first my lady". I nodded at understanding.

That's when my rooms door opened and I saw Beatrix outside in the corridor. I got up and dressed, as I was about to leave my room, I turned around and spoke," stay here and keep watch on the kids till I come back".

She nodded her head and bowed, I left the room and rushed or tried but had to walk slowly-slowly to reach Beatrix as in my condition. Before I can reach her she turned and saw me and spoke, " Cordelia! What are you doing here? You should be in bed."

I gave a small smile and spoke, " I came looking for you, what's with all the rush? I mean the ball is in the evening".

Beatrix chuckled and spoke," you may have forgotten now about a ball too, but we do have to prepare from the morning till night checking all the things as also it's my duty".

I felt like being suspended with that I spoke with a worried voice" No, it's not like that, it's just that I don't remember it nicely, that's all and must be tough for you do it for the whole castle?".

She smiled and said," yes it is, but the servants are the one who do it, I just instruct them and Cordelia I would be glad if you may look out for Shuu and Reiji, I know you are in a recovery state, but as Christa's is not feeling well I can't impose on her, but then only you are left, so plz-".

Before Beatrix can say more I cut her off," nonsense, why WOULD I refuse those two cuties and off Beatrix, you who have helped me so much, why wouldn't I return it back".

Beatrix touched my hands, "Cordelia thank you", with that she started moving away, " let's meet at night and don't forget to go to Christa for the dress and make up, she will help you". I smiled and said, "yes, I will".

The time I and Beatrix have spent, she already under stood that I had a change of heart and I didn't wanted to appear just how Cordelia used to dress up, I am not Cordelia that's why. I had told this to Beatrix and Christa too.

And for this occasion I am also going to change and wear not like Cordelia does, with Beatrix gone to the castle for the ball prepations I hurry off to Shuu and Eeiji's rooms.

As I reach Shuu's room, I knock on it and he says, "come in". I open the door and there I see Shuu on his bed playing with a toy. As he sees me, he rushes towards me and hugs me tightly.

"Coo I missed you", I smiled and took him onto my arms," I missed you too Shuu". Over time Shuu had gotten closer to me as hell, whenever Beatrix would be busy he will come to me. He liked cuddles and kisses too.

Can you image the Shuu in the anime would never even come to me but here kisses and cuddles, what a change. He even started using a Nick name for Me. He said calling Mother Cordelia is too formal and Cordelia Is too big so he calls me Coo. Over time my relationship with Shuu and Reiji has changed too just like how my relationship with Beatrix is like a best friend and Christa is too.

I kissed Shuu forehead and spoke," how have you been? Does Beatrix trouble you anymore?".

He smiled and spoke with moving his head left and right,"No, mother is very nice, she loves both of us and she even said she loves us one time, it's all thanks to Coo".

With that I smiled and he hugged me, with lacing his hands behind my back, while we heard a voice,"you can't hog her all to yourself Shuu". Just listening the voice I smiled and turned around and spoke," Reij!".

I smiled as I looked at Reiji who stood at the enterance of the room with a pour on his face. My smiled widened and I spoke," Oh Shuu, look your brother is jealous". With that Shuu separated himself from me yet still in my arms looked towards Reiji and smiled.

I thing which I love which I have done is the relationship between these two brothers. In the anime Reiji hated Shuu like anything but now they are like the perfect brothers.

Shuu spoke," hehe Reiji do you also want a hug from Coo?".

AT that Reiji was blushing like a red tomato who was about to explode. He stuttered, "No-No who want a hug? And who is Coo? So many times I have told you to respect her".

Shuu like a grumpy child spoke,"No!". And turned his head into the crock of my neck. I chuckled at this lovely and childish scene and spoke,"it's fine Reiji he can call me whatever he want and I can sure give my sweet Reiji a hug"

Reiji was a total tusandere, he was a nut case outside while a softie inside. He was beetroot red and Shuu was back to happy cherry free kid with having fun seeing Reiji like that.

I smiled and let go of Shuu who had a pout, I smiled at that, and went towards Reiji."Reiji are you ok?".

He was trying to hide his face by covering his face by his shirt's sleeve. I internally though 'Cute'.

I picked him up and hugged him while he blushed and hid his face in the crock of my neck while Shuu starting whinning.

"I also want to hug Coo", I smiled as I was about to say, I was cut off by the enterance of a maid. "My..lady..". She was breathing heavily which meant she came running here.

I spoke as I put Reiji down with the serious atmosphere in air, " Calm down first and then explain". She nodded her head.

" the three young masters were asking for you my lady and then..one of the young master fainted from crying and he hasn't woken up yet".

Something in me exploded, I screamed at her," why do you bring this now? Why not before, tell me!!!!". She shrinked from fear. Ignoring her I rush out of the room and turn around, " bring Shuu and Reiji to my room while I'm going ahead ok?". She nodded her head as tears were coming out of her eyes. Before going I turned around once again and spoke," next time I won't forgive you if something like this happened again, my children are very important to me, Got it? " with venom I spoke. She flinched and nodded her head.

While I was walking fast, yes that was my rush, I can't actually run in this state, can I ? But my worry wad actually eating my brain away. As I reached my room, I was surprised when I see Laito and Kanato Crying near the bed and Ayato lieing on the bed.

As I enter, just like knowing my presence, Laito's head jerks towards me, as he starts crying like anything. I am still surprised. Kanato also looks were Laito is starring and crying and he looks at me.

He stays neutral for a second, like he couldn't believe I am there then he also starts to cry. I rush forward as I can't see my children crying, I hug the both of them and ask the doctor who is standing in a corner.

"What happen to Ayato? Why did he faint?". I say that while Kanato and Laito are still in my arms. The doctors looks serious with the use of my tone. He fixes his spectes and speaks, " ahem, it seems like Prince Ayato was not able to find you that's why he fainted in worry but it seems like Prince Laito and Prince Kanato are strong in your bond as a mother and child."

I nodded and asked," is Ayato ok?". He nodded his head and give A few medicines, ahem vampire medicines. The maid leads him out and I sigh and hug the two in my arms to calm myself. I antangle my hand from Laito's hand and Ayato's small hand and kiss it. With worry I speak," Ayato".

With that I close my eyes, while Laito and Kanato relax in my arms. With that I reopen my eyes as Laito Tugs on me.

I look at Laito and spoke, "What is it Laito?". With that he looks at what? I look too and that is Ayato, he is awake. With a smile. I make Kanato sit on the bed while he has a pout on his face, I ignore it and help Ayato sit up.

I take him in to my arms and hug him tightly while Laito sees this in curiosity, I speak with a worried voice,"Ayato, thank God ness you are ok, mama was scared". I didn't notice it but tears were coming out of my eyes.

Ayato leaves my hug, I see tears in his eyes, I was surprised by this, he wipes away my tear, I smile at this and then he hugs me then I also see tears in Kanato and Laito's eyes. With this I hug them all in one.

As we are in our happy hug moment, I don't even the knock on the door the first time, I turn around and see the maid that came to tell me with Shuu and Reiji at the enterance.

The maid spoke," My lady I didn't-didn't wanted to interrupt you and princes so..I stayed quite". I with a serious tone asked, " since when were you here?".

It was Reiji than the maid who answered, "we just came right now". I nodded.

"Both of you come in, what are you waiting for?". They both nodded and entered the room while the maid trailed behind them.

"You can go now", I said as I looked at the maid who stood behind Shuu and Reiji. She nodded hesitantly and went out of the room.

It was now me and the kids only. I spoke, " Laito, Ayato and Kanato look your brothers came to play with you 3." The three smiled and Shuu and Reiji came forward towards me to see the three fighting to sit in my lap, I chuckled at this.

Seeing this Shuu puffed and whispered something in Reiji's ear and he smirked then he motioned for me yo lend my ear, I smiled at what he thought of and got up from my seat, the 3 babies looked at me like I was going to never come back to them.

I took Shuu in my arms while Reiji was smirking like anything, I hugged him while he hugged me back and let his head I the crock of my neck.

Now the 3 of the siblings were starring at Shuu who smiled and made a face at their direction and hugged me tightly. With 3 kids were glaring daggers into Shuu while Reiji was trying to contain his laughter after seeing this jealousy act.

Before I can laugh off more I was interpreted in between by a maid. I smiled and spoke,"what is it?". She hestiated first then spoke, "my lady-we need to get you and the prince's ready for the ball."

At that I just Remembered that there was a shitty ball to attend too. Oh Shit!!
