Let Me serve you, Prince!
Prince | Chapter 19
When Princess Ruby finished greeting, Alice took a few steps forward and stood beside Prince Erland. The girl brought a bouquet of very beautiful flowers and handed to the Prince, for the next given to Ruby.
When taking flowers from Alice, the hand of Prince Erland deliberately slightly squeezed the hand of the lover to make the two look at each other. At that instant, Alice's heart beat very quickly.
However, as quickly as lightning the Prince turned his body and handed the flower to Ruby. Alice slowly retreated, and the sound of lively music swept her mind.
Ruby's reception at the palace was very lively. Various dances and music enliven the feast devoted to the guest of honor.
After the party, the King asked the Prince to deliver Princess Ruby to a building devoted to royal guests who would stay for some time.
Prince Erland with a friendly smile delivered Princess Ruby to that place. Alice and some servants, as well as some bodyguards, tailed behind them. They all take Ruby to her room to rest before going to dinner together.
Prince Erland kept stealing glances with Alice walking right behind Ruby. When the Prince talks to the neighboring country's daughter, his eyes are always on his lover.
“Alright, Ruby we've arrived. The waiter will help you and there will be guards standing guard here. See you later tonight,” said Prince Erland who then said goodbye to leave Ruby.
Ruby wasn't even satisfied talking to Prince Erland. However, the man already said goodbye.

Alice followed Prince Erland's steps towards his palace. As a personal servant, of course he should always be with the Prince in this kind of situation.
“I'm so tired, help me take a shower, Alice!” prince Erland's word as soon as he arrives in front of the Prince's room.
The guards understood the meaning of the Prince's words. They gave a flicker of some kind of code to the other servants not to bother the Prince.
“Good, Your Majesty!” alice replied, who followed the Prince and closed the door.
As soon as he made sure there were no bullies, Prince Erland grabbed Alice's lips that were like opium. He hugged the waiter and took him to the bathroom.
The prince knew Alice's heartbreak throughout the event. That was why, he wanted to replace that unrest by being alone in this room.
“You don't look happy, why?” the Prince asked after taking Alice to the bathroom.
The girl frowned, and tried to smile, before finally answering, “I'm happy, Your Majesty. Princess Ruby turned out to be very beautiful and graceful. He must be a noble. I love seeing her beautiful face.”
Hearing Alice's reply, Prince Erland's forehead creased along. He immediately brought his face closer to Alice looking into her eyes deeply. “Really? You're happy to see it?”
Prince Erland's hands held Alice's cheeks until the beautiful face met. The prince certainly knew Alice was feeling insecure because of Ruby's arrival, so he said so.
“Heem!” Alice nodded softly as both of her cheeks were held back by the Prince.
The Prince then rested his lips on Alice's lips. Prince Erland enjoyed it all because in a moment, he would attend a charity event in a state far enough away, but still be part of the kingdom of Warlingtoon.
“Your Highness, said he wanted to take a shower?” alice said as Prince Erland was getting wild uncontrollably.
Prince Erland instantly adjusted his bawling breath and instantly removed his great clothes and entered the bath. “Yes, the weather is very hot. Help me rub my back, Alice!”
Alice did her duty as Prince Erland commanded. They still understand the boundaries that they should not cross, because their relationship has not reached a breaking point.

As previously planned, Prince Erland eventually had to go abroad for royal affairs. While Ruby still has to wait for Prince Erland who is scheduled to leave in a short time.
Before leaving, Prince Erland gave Alice a very beautiful dress. She wanted Alice to wear it when she came back.
“I want you to wear this when I get home, Alice!” said Prince Erland who had prepared the expensive clothes since a few days ago.
Alice received the Prince's gift with trembling hands. The clothes wrapped in a paper bag looked beautifully shiny.
“Your Majesty, this ...”
“You should wear it when I get back. I'm waiting for you in the rose garden!” The prince kissed Alice on the forehead and immediately left her lover's room before anyone saw her.

After Prince Erland left, rumors in the palace finally appeared. Ruby is the girl who was betrothed to Prince Erland since childhood. Princess Ruby is expected to accompany Prince Erland to become a matching King and empress.
This made Alice feel discouraged. She was only a servant while Ruby was a noble worthy of accompanying Prince Erland.
Alice's heart ached when she realized that. However, the prince's love for her was so great. Does he have to hold on? Or should Alice end her affair with the Prince?
