45 “Sneak Into Her Room”

“Just how long are you going to keep me hanging up?”

Ain spoke and Eleanora finally snapped back to open the window for him to come in.

“Why are you coming from the window?”

Eleanora asked.

But instead of replying directly, Ain started to look around her room before he finally settled himself into one of the chair, beside the window.

Like it was his own room.

“Hey! Why are you not answering my question?”

Eleanora asked angrily.

“Umm...Maybe because i don’t like doors or love window’s too much?”

.....

“Why are you still talking informally with me?”

“If you don’t like me talking informally then forgive me and you continue to talk formally with me. Am sick of speaking formally all the time...”

Ain replied formally.

“Huh? What do you mean?”

Eleanora asked.

“I mean, talking with those noble client’s!”

Ain replied as he scratched his neck and looked away.

Eleanora didn’t thought much and sat on the opposite chair as Ain; She started to observe him carefully.

‘His sitting posture looks like a noble... he can also talk formal language very fluently... Is he a from a fallen noble family?’

“Gaah!” “What the hell is this?”

Ain, who took Eleanora’s tea from the table to drink was choking because it was too bitter for him.

Eleanora, Who instantly stood up and patted his back to stop his coughing sighed.

‘I was wrong... There is no way a noble would behave like this...’

“D-Don’t you know you shouldn’t touch a man, randomly like this?”

Ain said and Eleanora noticed his red ears.

“But what if i don’t see you as a man...?”

Eleanora asked back and Ain was speechless.

‘Just where do i not look like a man?’

Eleanora sat back on her seat and passed a strawberry cake to him.

“Eat this; it will lessen the bitterness in your mouth...” “And why are you talking informally with me again?”

“Because i want to?”

Ain spoke as he frowned.

Because it was difficult for him to adjust himself on Eleanora’s chair which was made according to her height.

His legs was way longer as Eleanora hardly reaches his chest.

Eleanora just looked at him with a frown as there is nothing she can do when one doesn’t cares.

“So when are you going to teach me?”

“Whenever you want...”

“Let’s start from tomorrow because if the royal guards sees you sneaking in, then they will be on more guard. Which is really annoying because i can’t move freely then.”

Eleanora said as she took a bite of the cake she was eating.

“That’s true...”

Ain said and Eleanora looked up to him.

“I mean, when someone watches over you, i know this because there was often killers sent to kill me.”

Ain hurriedly explained and Eleanora looked at him with amusement.

“Owh... You must be very strong then to finish them and live on...”

Ain replied nothing as he touch his neck with another hand and took a bite of his cake too.

“My lady... Are you all right?”

Both Eleanora and Ain was shocked because of the sudden knocking on the door.

It seemed like the royal guard Edmund and Jennie who are worried because she locked the door.

“My lady, why did you locked the door? Did something happened?”

Eleanora’s mind went blank for a moment and then she hurriedly pulled Ain to hide him in her dressing room.

“W-What the?”

Ain was dumbfounded but still let Eleanora drag him.

“Stay here quickly if you don’t want any rumors going around saying ‘The crown princess cheated on the crown prince with a commoner’. I will get away but you will be beheaded right away!”

Eleanora tried to threaten Ain and before Ain could say anything; Eleanora shut the door on his face.

‘Well, I could just jump out from the window...’

Ain thought that he could just go away, just like how he came in at the first place...

‘But this doesn’t feel bad too...’

Ain squatted down in the dressing room, while being surrounded by her clothes.

He put his chin on his knees and burried his face as he felt his hear beating faster.

‘It’s full of her smell.’

On the other hand, Eleanora ran to open the door for not making it suspicious.

“My Lady!! Don’t worry the duke is safe and will return soon!!”

“Yes, My lady!! We will be with you till our death separates us!!”

“We will protect you, My lady!”

Eleanora was stunned to find all the maids and knights who came infront of her room to cheer her up.

Because they thought Eleanora was upset because she missed her daddy...

“Thank you so much guys...”

Eleanora smilled and a tear drop come out from her eyes.

‘Why did i never noticed their this devoted love before? would my life become more cheerful if i had noticed them?’

The maids panicked seeing her crying and eventually ended up taking her to take a stroll in the garden.

...

‘Just how long more i have to keep hiding?’

It’s been more then twenty minutes since Ain was hiding here.

But then he heard them leaving so he slowly come out.

He roam around the room a little more but found nothing interesting except some few painted pictures.

But most of them was Alexander’s pictures.

‘Just how much she loves her poker faced cold father?’

Then he finally noticed something that he couldn’t take his eyes off.

There was eight pictures at first; but the moment he walked away from there, it become seven pictures.

He was going to wait for her but then he felt a sudden presence of someone’s approach.

‘Who dares to come into her bedroom?’

Without another single thought, Ain drew out his sword and the approaching figure stiffness.

.....

“I-It’s me!!”

The person infront of Ain shuttered as he removed the cloak from his head.

Dark green hair with light green eyes immediately become visible to Ain and he withdraw his sword.

“Why are you here?”

“You need to go back. You have been summoned.”

“Can’t it be delayed for a moment?”

“No, it’s an imperial order. The emperor summoned you immediately, Crown Prince.”
