Elf Princesses

Episode 21's. I'm sorry

"I certainly didn't ask for anything difficult. I just want us to be able to eat together if each of us has free time. I hope you can have breakfast with me tomorrow morning." Zac smiled as he explained. To be honest, it had never occurred to him to invite a woman to eat with him, unless it was an important guest. However, at Edward's suggestion, Zac finally realized, he had to do things that could strengthen his relationship with Rubby. Moreover, both of them do not have a big feeling like lovers in general.

"Puft.." Unknowingly, Rubby chuckled. It certainly made Zac who was excited suddenly speechless. Is there something wrong with his words? Did he offend Rubby? thought the man with a confused face. If you say plain, of course not, because Zac is an adult. However, Zac really looks like an innocent man if such confusion.

"Geez, Sire, I suppose you want to ask what kind of request so talk seriously so. Really, if that's all, of course I agree." said Rubby while wiping the clear liquid that came out of the corner of his eyes due to too laughing earlier.

Zac let out a rough sigh, he felt relieved that Rubby was willing to agree to his request. On the other hand, there is a feeling of pleasure in her because the woman can laugh freely in front of her, because usually Rubby will not want to joke like this because she is very respectful of her husband's status.

"Rubby, you have to show your side like this a lot" said Zac, who made Rubby suddenly speechless in embarrassment.

"Ah, my attitude was impolite huh? I'm sorry, Sire, the end of his countenance was very funny earlier." said Rubby honestly.

Zac took a little bell, "It's exactly your side that's what makes me comfortable" the man smiled. "Don't be too polite to me. Act as if I were your friend.... Yeah, maybe? Although actually we already have a husband and wife relationship" continued Zac full of emphasis.

"I understand, Sire." Rubby smiled, somehow his feelings improved after Zac walked into the room and chatted with him. Though his feelings were still bad because of Marquess Ahen and the talk about some things that made his heart not calm. However, Rubby chooses to forget her and rest on her bed as the day is late. Moreover, tomorrow he had promised to have breakfast with Zac in the morning.

****

"Woah, Your Majesty is so beautiful, it is fitting that Your Majesty likes you so much!" praise Jeina while combing Rubby's hair.

"Thank you for your compliment, Jeina. But don't think too far about our feelings" Rubby smiled faintly, but Jeina was only speechless at the confusion of not understanding Rubby's words just now.

"Your Majesty, do you want to try braiding your hair? This is an important meeting between you and your husband, Your Majesty. Usually, a man would be happier if his partner dressed up cute," Jeina's advice was immediately rejected by Rubby.

"No, Jeina. I don't want to dress up cute, I'm getting into adulthood now." Rubby smile.

"And I was very anxious with His Majesty's hair being so fine, so I wanted to dress it up.." Jeina laughed a little, so did Rubby who laughed because of Jeina's words.

The Palace Dining Room

"Have you prepared well? The whole dish I asked for?" zac asked with a piercing look at his palace chef.

"Of course, Sire. I have prepared everything well" the palace chef nodded.

I forgot to ask for a taboo or Rubby's favorite meal yesterday. So I prepared the food recommended by the maids.

Zac scrunched his forehead, he cursed himself for being considered a fool. However, the only way to ask a woman's taste is to ask other women.

"Greetings, Sire." Rubby who suddenly came to make Zac focus collapsed. The man again immediately reviewed the smile on his lips as soon as he saw the wife had just come and greeted him.

"The waiters are preparing the food, we better sit down." Zac invited himself to sit in the dining chair.

Shortly thereafter, came several servants who brought some kind of trolley containing dishes that had been prepared.

"You don't have an allergy to meat, do you?" zac asked Rubby who had just finished wearing a cloth around his neck.

"No" Rubby answered briefly, and Zac replied with a nod of his head.

Rubby and Zac ate as usual, there was no conversation between them, so Zac began to raise his voice after he bribed the last mouthful on his plate.

"Rubby, I want to tell you something." Zac stared into Rubby's netra, and Rubby nodded his head in agreement.

"I had to go a few days out of town to check the state of affairs outside the city because this was the schedule. Are.. are you okay in the palace alone?" ask Zac with a guilty look. How could a newlywed part so quickly? In a sense, Zac must go out of town and leave Rubby at the palace alone without him.

I'm sorry, Rubby. I really don't want to do this, but as Emperor I can't abandon my duties. Zac sighed softly. His gaze was still fixed on Rubby's eyeballs.

"Don't worry about me, Sire. Many servants and bodyguards were being nice to me," Rubby smiled sincerely. "After all, I will also have to adapt as His Majesty's partner in the future, right?" added Rubby who made a feeling of relief in Zac's heart.

"Thank you." Zac spoke briefly, but the word was deep meaning to him.

After breakfast together, as Zac said, the man had to go out of town for the next few days. He was ready with Edward, his bodyguard who was also on guard.

"Be careful on the road, Sire" just as usual, Rubby was still polite and respectful, he also let go of her husband with a smile on his little lips.

"Your Majesty, take it easy, Your Majesty will definitely come home quickly because surely he misses you" Jeina smiled faintly, honestly, he was very sad to see Rubby who had to leave Zac at the age of marriage that was only a few days.

"I understand, Jeina. He won't be able to leave with his usual goals, so I respect his decision" Rubby smiled.

The woman then turned around because she also had to prepare to entertain noble women at the tea banquet she made. It was his duty as the palace empress, especially Rubby also has not debuted because he is not from this world.

"Your Majesty, you should dress up pretty so that they don't dare to mess around anymore!" jeina was convincing. Since then, the girl repeatedly recommended luxury jewelry to her mistress. Even Rubby was confused about what to wear, so he handed over all the business to Jeina, the lady who he had officially made a private ladyboy a few days ago.

"Your Majesty, you should also be cold and not think of the ravings of other noble women. Plus, now that Miss Slynie's coming to this banquet." a remark from behind made Rubby and Jeina speechless, they turned their heads and it turned out that the one who had just entered Rubby's room was Ethan, the bodyguard Zac assigned to look after Rubby as he went out of town.

"Sir.. Ethan?"
