Today's the day that I will break my engagement with Cecile and finally can give Julia a righteous status.

...

It not that I hate Cecile. Although I always disliked her it is more because she was someone chose for me rather than someone I chose. I can't accept that. Why should I, the Crown Prince, don't choose the one I am supposed to marry when even commoners do? As such, I always maintained by distance from Cecile since we were kids.

In the beginning, she avidly chased after me so that we could become friends. Even though I thought her chubby figure with her white ponytails chasing after me that truly looked like a fat bunny was pretty funny, I still ignored her. As the years passed my little bunny seemed to lose interest in chasing after me. Although she still pursued me I could see in her eyes that she held no interest towards me who was her nominal fiancée. Well, not that I care, this is what I wished for.

Was in this fashion that we enter the Royal Academy. Because I'm two years older than her, once she entered the Academy I was already a senior. But it was in the same year that I found my destined one.

With fluffy pink hair and blue eyes, the first time we met she was lost in the campus and couldn't find her classroom. Finding her amusing and cute I teased her a few times and helped her find her classroom. I learned in the way she was just brought back to the Baron Hartmann's house and how she lived before. Her cheerfulness and how positively she saw her future were enchanting.

Later on, we met more times and we fell in love. I knew that many other guys were after Julia, some were even my close friends. But luckily she chose me. I didn't hide our relationship so that the other pursuers stop bothering her, and so the rumor about our love affair was quickly spread through the Academy.

...

One day one of my close friends Louis Dubois grab my shirt and put me in the wall

"What the f*ck do you think you are doing?"

"What are you talking about?"

"Your relationship with Julia"

"First release me"

Patting my shirt I thought he was jealous that I got the girl we were both in love.

"What, jealous? Don't be a sour loser Louis, it doesn't fit you"

"Don't f*ck with me! Did you perhaps forget you are engaged with MY sister your piece of sh*t? Did you ever thought how hurt she was when you were fooling around? You are so dumb that even if you don't care about Cecile do you know how this will affect Julia's reputation?"

Cecile? Yes, she is the fellow's sister. Because he is a sis on and doesn't know how to express himself they gradually became apart and is even worse now with him being in love with Julia.

But well, I completely forgot about her. As the notion of that little bunny being hurt by my actions, the feeling of guilt crept over me.

"Don't worry about Julia, I can take care of her myself. I will talk with her about Cecile"

Saying so I left my friend with his clench fists and seething with anger. Later that day I met Julia. She was with her uniform dirty and her hair all over the place. I asked what happened and she only sobbed and said that she deserved because she robbed someone's fiancée. I immediately connect to Cecile. So all the guilt I had, vanish and I continue my loving days with Julia. Cecile would harass Julia sometimes demanding that she stay away from me together with her two friends. Who they think they are? She is my lover and she can only abandon me if I let her go.

A year passed and in my final year at the Academy, something happened to Julia. She was pushed in the stairs but luckily Gerald, the Knight Captain Chief's son was close and got her safe. Even if I was upset that he hug my baby, I was grateful to him for saving her. After asking Julia who they were, Julia said that they were Cecile followers and she heard that this was something that Cecile herself instruct them to do. Taken by anger I promised Julia that I would break my engagement to Cecile in the upcoming Royal Banquet and would announce our engagement.

However, later when investigating I found that the real mastermind was a viscount daughter who planned to eliminate both of her 'rivals' at one time. But even if I knew the truth I will use this incident to break the engagement with Cecile. Has been a year since I tried to weaken Duke Dubois power but was all for nothing. But with this, I can denounce her and have the engagement broken.

...or so I thought, but a week later she called me in the gazebo for tea claiming to have an important issue to discuss with me. As it was unusual for her to seek me I chose to meet her.
