Chapter 31

(What should I..., What should I do....!?)

Mia’s thoughts were in chaos.

If she were to become Sion’s dance partner, she would establish the biggest connection of them all.

If the relationship deepened, it would be just a matter of time before a mistake happened, opening the doors for “revolution -> kingdom’s invasion -> guillotine”.

That is bad. That is too bad.

However, If she refuses at this point, Sion’s impression of her would worsen.

And if that is not enough, lying and telling she already has a dance partner would make it nearly impossible to find a partner before the event.

Not one would be bold enough to invite the imperial princess who refused prince Sion.Gét latest novel chapters on nov(e)lbj/n(.)c/om

In the midst of the situation, Mia was searching for a way to get herself together.

She sharps her senses, like a small rat in a sinking ship, searching for a way out.

And at that moment, at the edge of Mia’s field of vision, an unthinkable scene came into view.

Abel, the boy who ignored her handkerchief earlier, was being led into the back of a building, by a senior student.

Mia’s rat senses start tingling with the somewhat threatening atmosphere.

(So, looks like there is a chance!)

[Huh? Is that....?]

Apparently, Sion also noticed.

[Excuse me for a moment.]

Finally having found a good excuse to run away, Mia quickly walks past Sion.

was smiling.

Mia is over 20 years old on the inside. Even though she spent more than two years in prison, she was still an adult. A mentally immature one, but still an adult.

Moreover, she was the target of the anger and bloodlust of the revolutionary army.

She had been slammed with real murder intent.

Abel’s older brother, on the other hand, is a prince raised in a greenhouse, regardless of how much he tries to look intimidating.

And even though he is the first prince, the Kingdom of Remno is still inferior to Tearmoon Empire.

(There is no need to be afraid of him.)

Mia let her laugher scape a little.

[Wha? What is so funny?]

[Oh my, how rude of me. But if you hit the face of my dance partner too much, I will be in trouble.]

Mia walks up to Abel, after having said that.

Apparently, Abel’s mouth had a small cut, so she gently puts a white handkerchief on his mouth, while smiling at him.

[My goodness, prince Abel. I already applied to be your dance partner, and here you are, flirting with other girls. What am I going to do with you?]

[Eh...?]

Abel opens his mouth with a blank expression.

With no regards for him, Mia helds the hem of her skirt a little,

[That is our first meeting, first prince of the Kingdom of Remno. I’m the first princess of the Tearmoon Empire, Mia Luna Tearmoon.]

She smiles in a good mood.

[I’m the worthless woman who accepted your brother.]
