Morning Dew's

79

Yuki's words came to a halt when Prince Sera kissed her. Yuki looked at Prince Sera in disbelief. He took one step back. 

"If you throw me out, I won't leave you. You are mine Yuki, long before we met each other You are mine" Prince Sera said seriously making Yuki speechless helpless. 

Any woman would be happy if she heard the expression of Prince Sera's feelings right now. But not with Yuki. He felt sad when he heard it.

Yuki realizes Prince Sera is as stubborn as Prince Riana. The two Princes both claimed Yuki as his rightful possession.

If this continues, Yuki fears war between the two countries will ensue. 

Yuki kept thinking what was pulling from her, so Prince Riana and Prince Sera were so stubborn as to get it. 

She's just an ordinary girl. Not having the manners and elegance like a respectable Princess. Yuki's academic achievements are good, but not the ones that stand out. If their reason was Yuki's beauty, Yuki felt that around those Princes there were many mature women who were much more beautiful and attractive than her.

Yuki did not understand what the two Princes were thinking.

The air is starting to feel cold. The day began to change with the night. Prince Sera invites Yuki to see the theater. He has prepared everything. 

Prince Sera and Yuki were seated on a special bench, which was not particularly conspicuous. Prince Sera deliberately ordered to avoid others recognizing them.

Yuki really enjoyed the show. He laughed a few times, when he saw the humor scene brought by the players.

Maybe because it is too tired to play all day, plus the air that supports and melodious music that is being played. Yuki subconsciously fell asleep in the middle of the show.

Prince Sera only realized Yuki was asleep, as Yuki's head was leaning on her shoulders. He turned his head and found Yuki asleep. Suddenly, the Prince wrapped his hands around Yuki's neck and pulled the girl to sleep on his shoulder.

Time feels long gone. Prince Sera ignored the show. She would rather spend some time staring at Yuki. 

Slowly, Prince Sera brought her face closer and kissed Yuki's soft lips.

Meanwhile, in her dream, Yuki felt a hand gently stroking her hair. It feels warm and pleasant. Yuki felt safe.

He allowed himself to fall deeper and deeper into his sleep. Enjoy the comfort. 

The black horse riding Prince Riana split the streets that are still crowded with residents around. Behind him the Nobility of Voldermont deftly followed him.

It's been three hours that they've been combing half the capital's territory in search of Yuki. But until now they haven't found it.

When they return from outside the city to the palace, the Soldiers come and report that Yuki disappeared from inside the carriage amid the crowd. There are witnesses who say, a man who covered his face and hair with a cloth, took him away when there was a commotion in the middle of the road.

They all fell silent. Hope nothing happens to Yuki. The troops followed Prince Riana in the back. No one dared to speak. 

"Prince" a voice broke the silence as Prince Riana's entourage reached the edge of the river that split the capital in two. Two soldiers from the other direction came by horse. They rushed down to report.

"We've been investigating, Prince Sera hasn't returned to the inn since morning, and just a waiter at Prime Minister Olwrendho's residence reported that someone had been sent by Princess Yuki to deliver the jewelry and clothes that were worn before to the house"

Prince Riana clutched the rope until her knuckle was visible.

Yuki wasn't kidnapped by the Black Magic. He was sure that Sera planned all of this to bring Yuki.

"We must not be rash" said the Noble Voldermont reminded Riana. 

"I'll go to Sera's place" Riana said coldly ignoring the warnings of Nobles Voldermont.

He had already driven his horse before the Noble Voldermont had time to retaliate. 

The nobleman Voldermont sighed. Riana was furious this time. The little cat will get into trouble.

Yuki felt her shoulders on the soft pat. Lazily, Yuki opened her eyes slowly. 

Prince Sera sat down beside Yuki, looking at Yuki with an affectionate attitude. "I've woken up my sleeping daughter"

Yuki blinked in surprise. He looked around and found only those who were inside the theater room. All the spectators and players are gone. 

He did not know how long he had been asleep. But it has been a long time, since those dreams he can only sleep soundly like now.

Reverend Naru was standing near Prince Sera. Her face was tense, making Yuki realize something bad had happened.

"What's up ?" Yuki asked directly after his consciousness had recovered sufficiently.

"The Kingdom of Garduete forcibly stormed the inn we were staying at. If they find out the Prince is now with the Princess, I'm worried..."

"Quite Naru" Prince Sera's orders were firm, with a dislike face.

Reverend Naru instantly fell silent.

"The prince must not be seen with me, Go Prince" pinta Yuki mediated the tense atmosphere.

"Yuki.." call Prince Sera to protest.

"I beg you, Prince, I don't want any trouble with you. Please go.." 

"Prince please think carefully, if the kingdom of Garduete finds you together. They could have had a reason to imprison the Prince. Moreover, Prince Riana could use this matter as an excuse to touch Princess Yuki"

Yuki immediately shuddered at Naru's words. A truth that Yuki is deeply afraid of.

Prince Sera looked at Yuki worriedly. He doesn't care if he gets a punishment from Garduete. But Yuki...He is not willing if his fiancee is touched by someone else even if only the end of his hair.

"Prince listen to me this time, go..I beg of you" Yuki said again in a persuasive tone. "Don't let them find us together"

"I understand" said Prince Sera finally in a tone of surrender, making Yuki and Reverend Naru instantly feel relieved. "Yuki be careful, I will order the guards to watch over you from afar. You'll be safe on your way back"

Yuki nodded her head. He did not dispute Prince Sera. 

Prince Sera stood up, still looking worried. Yuki smiled strengthening Prince Sera. 

Prince Sera rubbed Yuki's cheek gently and kissed her. Then He turned around leaving Yuki followed by Reverend Naru behind him. Prince Sera looked back. Yuki continued to put on a warm smile so that Prince Sera would not change her decision.

Yuki just took off her smile when Prince Sera had already left the room. Disappear behind closed doors.

Yuki waited for a while until she was sure that Prince Sera was far enough away before he left his place.

It was night when He was on the road. No more crowds. Only one or two people passed through the city streets. Yuki walked alone down the street. If He's lucky, he'll get a chariot rental two blocks from where he is now.

Yuki looked up at the sky, this night was so quiet and cold. The moon is not doing its job well. Its light was covered by the clouds hanging in the sky.

Behind Yuki, a pair of feet walked quickly closer to him. Because he is too focused on his mind. Yuki was unaware of the person's presence until her body was forcefully turned around by the person behind her.
