Morning Dew's

69

Yuki took a handkerchief in his pocket and stuck it on his tongue. He pointed out that there was a speck of blood there.

"Just leave to eat You can't" Prince Riana shook her head at Yuki's behavior. 

Prince Sera stood up from her seat and without feeling awkwardly approached Yuki. He didn't even care about Prince Riana's whereabouts.

"Paste this on your tongue so that the wound dries quickly" Prince Sera ordered as he thrust a handkerchief toward Yuki.

Yuki was surprised by Prince Sera's actions. But He did not want to prolong the unpleasant situation, plus all eyes looked at them with curious glare. Yuki immediately took Prince Sera's handkerchief, He bowed his head in thanks. 

The handkerchief that Prince Sera gave him had been wet with ice water before. Yuki glued it to her injured tongue. A coldness spread in his mouth.

"Thank you, now it feels so much better" Yuki said politely. He did not want to offend Prince Riana or Prince Sera.

Prince Riana stood up, staring directly at Prince Sera ready to fight. While Prince Sera was still acting indifferent, his chin was raised with a triumphant smile on his lips. The guests present became restless, worried about a dispute that actually exacerbated the problem.

"All, please return to their respective places" King Bardana's orders were firm, making the tense atmosphere start to melt away.

Yuki drew Prince Riana's hand, telling her to sit down. Prince Sera himself had already walked quietly, returning to his place.

Yuki sighed in relief. He thanked His Majesty King Bardana for separating the two Princes at the right time.

Yuki no longer had any taste for food. The tension that had occurred made his appetite disappear. He put the dinner rag to the table and looked politely at King Bardana.

"I'm sorry Your Majesty, Am I allowed to go to the balcony to take care of my wounds" Yuki pinta pleaded.

Yuki knew, Prince Riana would not let him go home alone or leave from before him as long as Prince Sera was here. So He chose the balcony of the hall which he could see at any time.

"Yes go, wait for Us there until it's done" the King's order approves Yuki's request.

Yuki looked pleased, at least He didn't need to be in the gripping atmosphere he was in right now. He immediately stood up before His Majesty King Bardana changed his mind, and rushed towards the balcony of the hall.

Yuki sat on the balcony, watching the scene in front of him with a feeling of amazement. Lights are shining all over the city. No one believes there has been a brutal murder in the Capital if you look at all the beauty that is plastered from where Yuki is. 

Even from her position, Yuki could see the main Hall, the place where for the first time Yuki set foot into the palace. Time seemed to pass quickly, as if everything that had ever happened was like a dream.

The banquet that King Bardana held to welcome his arrival, With Prime Minister Olwrendho's companions, Yuki entered the hall. Yuki still remembers how Prime Minister Olwrendho laughed off his back and was proud when introducing Yuki to his friends. 

Tears trickled down Yuki's cheeks, recalling every precious moment she had passed with Prime Minister Olwrendho and the maids at home. He misses the atmosphere of his home.

Not wanting to dissolve in sadness, Yuki turned her gaze away. He looked towards the balcony, the place where the Dalto Nobles found him who was hiding from the Nobles' dance invitations. The Dalto nobility brought a large bunch of very beautiful red roses. They dance. Enjoy the music together.

Yuki again asked himself if the Dalto Nobles wanted to kiss him back then ?. Would Yuki have received that kiss if it was true that Duke Dalto tried to kiss her ?. Various questions kept coming to Yuki's head.

Yuki sighed. He also greatly missed being with the Dalto Nobles. It feels very strange to see the situation The two of them are in now. Separate as if not knowing each other. If she can choose, Yuki is willing to change her current position only to return to enjoy her former life.

Suddenly from the corner of her eye, Yuki saw something move from the direction of the balcony where He once danced together with the Dalto Nobles. Yuki turned her face to see more clearly. He's choked.

Yuki's heart rate is increasing rapidly. He was barely able to breathe and was just fixated on staring at the figure across. 

The figure moved, his robe fluttering in the wind. He saw a bow and arrow in his hand. She unhesitatingly raised her bow to aim at Yuki who was still silent in her place. 

The bow is released.

Run Yuki..Run..

The screams inside his head sounded loud. But Yuki was unable to move, She felt limp and helpless. His mind and body are not working as they should. 

Sssyuuuuuttt 

The arrow that was released, shot out quickly. Stuck right on the wall right next to Yuki. His voice sounded quite loud and terrifying.

Yuki wanted to scream, but the voice rested in her throat. 

It was as if there was a lump of cloth clogging his mouth. 

The second arrow is launched. Just as the arrow shot powerfully across the wall, right above Yuki's head, Yuki was finally able to let out a shout.

Yuki's shout made an instant atmosphere of silence within the hall. Prince Riana noticed it first. He immediately jumped up quickly, running towards Yuki's place.

Yuki looked up and looked at the arrow above his head, Late down just a little bit, the arrow will stick in his skull.

Another arrow shot back, right Prince Riana came. The arrow grazed Yuki's arm, before finally sticking it into the wall. Yuki leaned back, blood seeping from his arm.

"Yuki what's wrong ?" Prince Riana's question made Yuki almost faint so easy to see the presence of Prince Riana.

Yuki looked at Prince Riana in fear, unable to make a sound. His body felt weak and not powered. His teeth were terrified.

Prince Riana immediately responded to Yuki's fear. He immediately realized there was a danger near them.

"Attack!!, There was an attack !!" Shouted Nobles Xasfir giving his marker. The Guards put on a standby stance. The guests stood watchfully. "Protect Your Majesty, Protect the Prince and Princess Yuki. Close all windows now !!"

Prince Riana managed to reach Yuki and pull him into his embrace, when the arrow shot back, scratching Yuki's back. Yuki shouted in pain. His skin feels hot. He was dragged into the room. All doors and windows are closed. Curtains are lowered to block the view from the outside. 

Prince Riana grabbed Yuki tightly, while Yuki was still shivering in fear.

"You come with me to the main hall now, block all access in and out of the main Hall. Arrest all suspicious" Noble Xasfir ordered his troops. They had already pulled out their swords and directly walked out to catch the culprit.

"Daughter Yuki, are you okay ?"  King Bardana asked worriedly as he approached Yuki.

Yuki nodded his head answering King Bardana's question. But his body looked so fragile and pitiful.
