And until that time comes, I'll never let you off and away from me again. My greatest regret is to accept and be silent when his Excellency Alvero rejects my request of you. I should have insisted at that time on asking for his blessing, and ventured to question to his majesty Alvero the reason behind his refusal of my request of you. If only I could, my pending request would be to have His Majesty untie him and stop using you to save himself. But given your character, if I do that now it will definitely make you reject me. I will gladly help his Majesty eradicate all his enemies, keep him in a safe position, so that Alvero's glorious covenant with you is soon terminated. And I can make a request to his highness Alvero to release you, Deanda Federer.
Evan again said in his heart as his eyes looked in the direction where Deanda and Alvero had disappeared, before he turned his head, to answer the greeting someone had spoken for him just now, trying to take his mind off the only female figure that was only the first time was able to make his heart tremble violently because of his charm.
A gust of wind instantly greeted Deanda and Alvero's bodies and faces as soon as they set their feet on the stern of the ship, making Deanda's body slightly jerked and instantly narrowed her eyes.
“Wah, it turns out like you said earlier, here the wind feels very fresh my Al.” Deanda said softly while smilingly looking around, and it turned out that some people also appeared to be at the stern of the ship to enjoy the fresh air.
As soon as they saw the presence of Alvero and Deanda, they immediately nodded their heads in a respectful manner to Alvero and Deanda.
On one side of the stern, Deanda and Alvero could see Dion talking seriously with Desya. Although Desya has been out of the palace, but her status as a Gracetian princess makes her still get an invitation to Enzo's birthday party which has been sent even before Desya was expelled from the palace. And Desya felt that there was no reason for her not to attend today's party, to show that until this moment she was still a Gracetian princess, who was worthy of being present in this place.
Upon seeing the presence of the figures of Deanda and Alvero, Desya immediately turned her face, trying to avoid the eyes of Deanda and Alvero, even though in her heart, if to be honest, Desya was so eager to look at Alvero, he said, admiring the figure of his stepbrother who in dreams Desya always hoped to have the man. While Dion, immediately took a deep breath, without being able to hide his desire to get closer to Deanda in order to enjoy the beauty and charm of the woman up close, made several times his legs and hands move with movements that looked awkward and hesitant.
Brother Alvero, why you never considered me a woman who would do anything for you. I want to show you how I really love you, brother Alvero, much more in love with you than Deanda who, with no self-knowledge, has dared to take Brother Alvero from me. Even since we were little, do you not remember, if I knew you were getting a blow from your mother, I would immediately sneak up and look for a thousand and one reasons, trying to attract papa Vincent's attention to meet mama, so that mama does not torture you protracted. All that I did was because I wanted to protect you so much.
Desya said in her heart while holding herself back from tears from feeling sad and disappointed by what had happened to her. For her, being expelled from the palace was no better than the punishment of revoking her daughter's title. Because as soon as he walked out of the palace, his chances of seeing Alvero more and getting rid of Deanda would get smaller.
If only Brother Alvero had not always been by his side, I would not have wasted the opportunity to get close to you, even if I just wanted to talk to you, enjoy your voice and figure so enchanting. I wish that one day such an opportunity would come to me even if it was just for a moment. If that time comes, I will tell you what I have felt all along. Maybe people call me crazy, but my eyes and heart can no longer turn away from you.
Dion said inwardly as his hands touched his chest at a glance, trying to calm something rumbling inside there because he saw the beautiful and charming figure of Deanda with a bone-white dress that showed the curves of her beautiful body, makes the woman look so elegant and sexy.
Hold yourself well Dion. Now is not the time for you to take the opportunity to get close to Deanda. Be stronger to make Deanda's eyes turn to you. Deanda needs a strong man to accompany her and can be her protector.
Recalling that, Dion took a deep breath while forcing himself to take his eyes off of Deanda, as he saw that Hazel Alvero's eyes were already staring intently at him, it was as if through the sight of his eyes Alvero gave a warning to Dion to stop his amazed gaze towards his beloved empress.
“Come we'll get there!” Deanda who was unaware that Alvero had just attacked Dion with a sharp look from her eyes, pointed her forefinger at one of the stern corners where not many people were seen there.
Hearing Deanda's request, Alvero immediately grabbed Deanda's index finger which was pointing to where she wanted and grasped it with her fingers. Then Alvero stepped in that direction while pulling Deanda's fingertips tightly grasped, making the smile on Deanda's lips widen, feeling pleased that Alvero was following his wishes.
“Eh, Ernest?” Deanda immediately let out a word in an astonished tone looking at Ernest's figure who was seen crouching with his hands clinging tightly to the stern guardrail and head facing towards the ocean, in one of the stern corners he'll be working with Alvero.
Ernest who heard the voice call from Deanda immediately turned his head with his pale face and quivering lips, making Deanda instantly approach towards him with a worried face.
“What's wrong with you Ernest? What happened to you?” Deanda said in a tone of astonishment as well as panic, let alone Ernest's face that currently really looked so pale as no blood flowing to his face.
On the other hand, Alvero could only hold back his smile seeing how the punishment he had planned for Ernest went as he had expected, although after seeing Ernest's condition, Alvero felt quite a bit of regret for pity.
“Eh, Empress…. Alvero. Sorry, I never put up with the high seas…. I always seasick...if sailing, even just by smelling the sea water, instantly makes me nauseous and..” Not to mention Ernest finished his words, he said, with great difficulty Ernest got up from his crouching and regurgitated his entrails into the ocean below.
Seeing that quickly Deanda reached into the pocket of Alvero's suit, where Alvero usually kept his handkerchief there.
“Eh sweety...”
“I borrow ya, pity Ernest..” Deanda immediately interrupted Alvero's words before Alvero expressed his protest and Deanda quickly extended Alvero's handkerchief to Ernest, which makes Alvero can only hold his breath seeing how Deanda's attitude is always so concerned with others, anyone and whatever the position of the person.
