The Villainess

Chapter 6

JULIETTE

I opened my eyes only to get greeted by the annoying sunlight with of course the knock coming from the door.

"Come in..." I lazily said as I roll from the side that doesn't have sunlight.

Give me a break.

"Juliette?" I heard my father calling my name. I roll over and look at the door and there he is peeking from the door which is way too far from the bed.

"Father?" I called him and rub both of my eyes. I heard the sound of his shoes as they kiss the floor.

"Yes, it's me, princess. Did my princess have a hard time in the palace yesterday?"

I looked at my father's face and saw his worried face. I suddenly got guilty for making my father worried.

I know that my head might be cut off if his majesty wants it but luckily the King loves the Fitoria household.

"Umm no father, the King His Majesty allowed me to see the prince."

Father pat my head and smiled at me.

"That's good, just tell me if my princess is sad and papa will always come right away. I'll just stay in my study room."

I nod and father proceeds to go to his study room. I and my brother have our study room in the mansion, and who knows what Juliette did to the study room that is located at the west wing of the mansion...

Just remembering it makes me go crazy. Instead of wasting my time on the bed. I stood up and went to the bathroom.

As I wash I count the days using my fingers. In 3 days I and my father will meet the King in the throne room.

I want to be a normal person. Away from political matters because it is such a pain in the ass.

If machines, chemistry, and experiments already exist in this era I would be happy to be a scientist than to be a Queen of this nation.

I went out of the bathtub and dried myself. I get a pair of dresses and matching heels.

Once I'm done getting dressed. I pick a pink colored bow that matches my dress well.

I kinda like pink today so I'm dressed all pink from head to toe.

I went down and went straight to where the garden is. I'm enjoying the life of a rich girl right now.

I don't know when I'll escape and run away from Oltaire Kingdom. I don't know when it'll happen so I must enjoy this moment.

I'm about to lean on the rocking chair when Elsie, my maid, runs towards me while shouting my name as if it's the end of the world.

"Miss! Miss! Miss!" She called.

I frowned at her and waited for her to catch her breath.

"Miss, you have a VERY important guest right now."

A guest? I don't expect anyone right now, though?

"Is that so? And who might this person be?" I curiously asked.

She opened her mouth, ready to talk, but then a baritone voice interfered with her before Elsie could even speak.

"It's me..."

I almost drop the teacup that I am holding right now. I nervously turn my head to the garden's entrance and I saw the dangerous prince gorgeous as ever.

What!? Gorgeous!? Am I blind!?

"P-p-p-prince! What a pleasant surprise! What kind of bad wind brought you here?"

"Excuse me? I beg your pardon?"

"Ah? You didn't hear me right your highness. I said... What kind of nice wind brought you here?" He seems to know that I'm intentionally pissing him off.

"I want to check on you, the spoiled brat almost princess-like daughter of the mighty duke, the young brat miss of Fitoria household..."

Ahh, so basically. He didn't come to check on me, instead to piss me off. I would have blushed at the thought of him worried about me but now all I can do is cringe at that thought...

All I know is this dangerous prince is merciless and a devil!

"Such nice words. Here, let me pour some tea for you." I said and pour him some tea.

He took the teacup and drink the tea that I poured for him.

Hmph! No thank you at all...

"This..." The prince said as he stares at the teacup.

"What your highness? Have you fallen in love with the teacup?" I said.

The teacup has a beautiful flowery design that matches my taste for tea time in the garden.

"Stupid, what is the tea that you poured for me?" He said frowning. I rolled my eyes and lean on my rocking chair.

"And why would I tell you..." I mockingly said matching his grin. His face got dark as he grin widely at me.

"Just say it or else..."

He took something from his pocket and I saw it's a match!?

Don't tell me he's going to burn the whole mansion!?

"What are you planning to do?" I ask and gulp a lot of saliva.

"What do you think?" He said and brightly smiled at me.

"Prince, you don't know how to take some jokes. Hahaha, the tea is a rose berry tea. The wild red rose that we grew here and the berry herb that we exchange for a huge amount of money is from the Cyan Kingdom in the South." I said.

The prince just stared at me so I wave my hand in front of his face. I slightly jump when he grabs my hand.

"Uhhh, Prince?"

He looks at my hand thoroughly. He touch my skin and then entwined his fingers to mine.

"They're quite fit together no? It seems our hands are made especially for each other."

I pulled my hand quickly and look down for him not to see my face.

"I-I suddenly felt unwell, if you might excuse me your highness and I apologize for I will not personally escort you out of the mansion, goodbye."

I stand up and quickly ran away from the garden. But before I leave him I look his way and see he's grinning at me.

Does he know something?
