Chapter 62 - The Beginning Of The Disaster: The Hunting Festival (Part 13)

Episode 57

(KILL HER)

"Greetings, Your Highness the Crown Prince!"

The girls greeted Leonus.

"Hmm."

Leonus nodded at their greetings.

'Aghh! Why is he here?!'

Sarah thought to herself.

"I apologize, Princess. You had to come here without me."

Leonus said while looking at me. 

"Ah. There wasn't any problem though."

Yes. The Knights escorted me just fine.

"Is that so…?"

Leonus said, looking at the girls with suspicious eyes.

"Yes…"

"I see, then. Anyways Princess. Come with me. I will show you something."

"Huh?"

Druella: "Cr-Crown Prince! The Princess was supposed to spend time with us!"

"Huh? No way. I already told you that won't be possible. She is going to spend the time with me."

Leonus said with an aloof expression. Then he held Isabella's hand and took her out of the tent.

'Aghh! That- D*mn it!'

Druella cursed inwardly.

"Don't curse."

Azleza said with a plain look. Druella flinched hearing that.

"What? No way! How did you know?"

Druella said with a surprised look.

Azleza: "You are easy to read, Lady Druella. I would be surprised if anyone didn't notice."

Druella: "N-No way."

Sarah: "She is telling the truth, Lady Druella. You are too easy."

"I have no idea what you are talking about, Lady Sarah."

Druella said with a smile. Anyone can see the spark in their eyes.

"Ahem! Anyways Lady Madeleine, how is Young Master Lorenzo?"

Kayleigh asked to change the topic. 

Madeleine: "Ah. He is fine."

Azleza: "Won't he attend the banquet?"

Madeleine: "No. He said he was tired, which was definitely a lie. He just wanted to sleep while he can."

Azleza: "Sounds like him."

Sarah: "Anyways why didn't Young Master Randall attend the hunt anyways?"

Druella: "Aha. It's a good opportunity for him to flir- I mean get along with ladies from other Kingdoms."

Azleza: "Ah. He couldn't come because he is busy with a task the Crown Prince assigned him."

Druella: "Pfft! Is that so? He must be crying and cursing the Prince then."

Azleza: "Unexpectedly, no. He wasn't. It's something serious."

Kayleigh: "Ohh."

"Anyways, so… … … …"

And the girls continued their chatter.

A few minutes ago…

'What? Th… That is the Crown Prince?! No! No way! Wasn't he supposed to be ugly! No! This can't be possible! He is so elegant! Better than the low blood Roberto!'

Rubena thought while looking at Leonus with exploding eyes. Leonus who was standing beside Isabella looked behind. For a moment, Leonus's eyes met with Rubena. But then he looked away and after a minute both Isabella and Leonus left the banquet tent.

'Ah! He was looking at me! Surely he fell in love with me! How can that b*tch Isabella steal him away from me?! That bitch knew from the beginning that the Prince was good looking! That wh*re! How dare you steal him from me?!'

Rubena sobbed and cursed inside. 

Vivian: "Umm… Princess Rubena? Are you okay?"

"Ah. I am… a bit out of breath. So I will go get some fresh air. Then excuse me."

"Princess! Let me escort you!"

A young man from another Kingdom asked.

"No! I would like to be alone!"

Saying that Rubena hurriedly left the tent and started searching for Leonus.

'Just wait a minute, My Prince! I will be there. We will finally reunite. We, who are destined to be together!'

"Where are we going?"

"Just wait a minute, My dear Princess."

Hah! He has been saying that from the beginning. It's already been 10 minutes since we left the tent. And the whole time he has been holding my hand.

Now that I think about it, we are heading towards the Royal Camps of Fellmirr.

Is he going to see the Empress? Ah… Probably not. He said he had something to show me.

Sigh~

I shouldn't think anymore. 

Now that I see, this place is breathtaking at night.

The fire of the huge bonfires looks like glowing orange crystals. So beautiful…

The decorations of every tent are glowing so beautifully. To be precise, only the tents of Fellmirr.

Whoosh~

The cold wind that touches my warm skin feels so nice. 

After a while, we finally reached the tent. 

Is he going to stop now? But contrary to my expectations he didn't stop and took a left turn. 

What? Where in the world is he going to take me?! And there is not a single tent in that place. It's near the forest too.

Suddenly he stopped and said,

"Princess. Are you tired?"

"What? N-"

"Okay, I understand."

Huh? You understand what? You didn't even let me finish my talk.

But suddenly he took me in his arms.

"Wh-What? Your Highness?! Please put me down!"

"No."

"Please."

"Don't worry, I will never drop you."

"Huh? That's not what I mean."

It's too embarrassing!

"No."

"Pl-Please. I am begging you."

"Princess. If someone hears you they will think I am kidnapping you or something."

"What? That-"

"So don't fuss and hold me tight."

"..."

Aghh! I can never win against him.

I tightly put one arm around his neck. Although I don't think that's necessary, he is walking more swiftly than before. 

A-Am I that light?

Chuckle*

"Princess. Why are you pouting?"

"What? I am not."

"You are."

"No."

"Pfft. Hahaha~"

Ah. My heart… This man looks too handsome when he smiles.

"Oh my? You are blushing now."

"What?"

"Are you falling for my handsome face?"

Leonus asked with a smirk.

Aghh! I hid my face in his chest. It's too embarrassing! No matter where I look he will see me. 

"Princess…"

Suddenly Leonus stopped and said in a hoarse voice.

"..."

"You shouldn't do that."

"..."

"It will be hard for me to control."

Thump… Thump…

His heart… it's beating loudly…

I hurriedly removed my face from his chest. 

Aghh! Why is the situation even more embarrassing now?! 

"Princess…"

"Yes?"

I said while closing my eyes.

"I will kiss you now."

"Huh?"

But before I could say anything he locked his lips with mine.

"Mmm…"

Why does he always do that so suddenly?! It always makes me out of breath.

My heart is beating so fast! It feels like it will burst out of my chest at any minute now.

He continued sucking my lips roughly then put his tongue inside my mouth. Wh-Where did he learn all this?! And how does he have so much strength?! He isn't budging even though I am in his arms.

And why in the world am I feeling weak? My whole body feels numb. I can't even breathe. 

"Mm…"

I tightly grabbed his chest as I couldn't breathe.

He removed his lips as if understanding my struggle.

Huff* Huff*

Both of us started breathing roughly. 

His eyes are red now. 

"It seems like I have to kiss you more often."

What is he saying? My face feels like burning.

"Why are you so beautiful… Why do you smell so dangerous… Why can't I control myself in front of you…"

Leonus said breathing roughly. 

My eyes widened hearing him. Wh-What is he trying to say? 

"It seems like I am no different than him…"

Leonus mumbled in a low voice. His eyes also returned to the usual calm blue.

Him? Now that I think about it, this also happened on the night of the Ritual.

"L-Leonus…"

Leonus widened his eyes hearing me saying his name.

But he soon chuckled and kissed my cheek.

"Well, I guess we should get going."

Saying that he snapped his fingers and we teleported into an unknown place. 

Gasp*

This is…

We are standing in the middle of a beautiful grassland. The long grasses were dancing through the gentle breeze.

It's filled with glowing blue fireflies. As if the grassland itself is blue. The beautiful light of the silver moon reflected brightly on the small lake beside us. The lake also had beautiful glowing lotus plants.

"Do you like it?"

"Yes."

I replied instantly.

Chuckle*

"Then I will make a place for you here."

"What? That won't be necessary!"

"Really?"

"Yes. Our Castle is beautiful too."

Leonus smiled hearing me.

"You are right. OUR Castle is beautiful indeed."

"Umm. C-Can you put me down?"

"Huh? No. I don't want to."

"But I want to get down."

"Well, I guess it can't be helped if my Princess wants it."

Saying that Leonus put me down gently from his arms.

"Then let's take a walk here, shall we?"

Saying that Leonus locked the fingers of my right hand with his and we started walking around the beautiful fantasy land.

Rubena is walking fast. No… almost running.

'Where is my Prince? It's just been a minute since he left the tent.!'

Thinking about Leonus, she started looking around here and there.

'No! No! I can't be late! Who knows what that wh*re will do to him? She is probably seducing him at this very moment. Where in the world did that b*tch take my Prince?!'

Rubena screamed inwardly. Suddenly she stopped realising something.

"Wait… Seduce… Could it be?"

Rubena hurriedly ran towards the Royal Tents of Fellmirr. 

And after running for minutes, Leonus came to his sight.

'Huff* My Prince! That b*tch really was taking him to bed. F*king wh*re! But wait why is he holding hand with that wh*re?'

Seeing the sight, Rubena hurriedly walked towards them.

'I have to separate him from that wh*re! That vixen! Huh? Why aren't they entering the tent?'

Rubena halted, seeing Leonus taking a turn.

'Phew~ He is probably going to tell her that he doesn't love her. Yes. That's it. But I should still keep an eye on them. What if she does something shameless? And it would be a pleasure seeing her face when My Prince confesses his love for me.'

Thinking that Rubena again started walking towards the direction Leonus went.

But soon stopped seeing a sight…

'What? What? What? Th-They are kissing?! No! No! No f*king way! You f*king wh*re! How dare you seduce my Prince?'

Chuckle*

Rubena flinched hearing Leonus's distant chuckle.

'H-He is smiling?! Don't- Don't tell me he is seduced by that wh*re? No, I have to stop them!'

Thinking that Rubena started running towards them. But before she could reach near both Isabella and Leonus disappeared.

"No! No! No! Where the f*ck did they go?! Aghh~"

Rubena screamed with anger with her bloodshot eyes.

"Rubena? What the heck are you doing?"

Suddenly Daniel said coming from behind.

Daniel: "Why the heck are you here in this empty place?"

But Rubena didn't utter a word.

"Hey? What is wrong with y-"

Daniel said, walking towards Rubena.

Rubena: "Anne- I have to find Anne."

"What are you talking about?"

Daniel asked while frowning.

"Shut the f*ck up!"

Rubena screamed at Daniel then started running towards her tent.

'I can't wait for the last day of the Competition. I have to kill her today.'

"Yes! I will kill her today. Then he will be mine."

Rubena said with a grimace.
