Olive was still in the kingdom of Aurant to get used to it. Although he insists that he does not like the King of the Aurant, but he still has to obey here because the King has paid attention to him.
"Shut up and obey, son. You're the candidate!" His mother finally said firmly. Saw his son's behavior a few moments ago. Olive did not warmly welcome the King. It makes the behavior of his mother who was originally gentle should start giving firmness to his second daughter.
"I don't want to. I never will." insisted Olive. The grumbling continued until someone knocked on the door of their room.
Geck! Tok!!
Both look at the door. Someone Butler came in with a respectful bow. It was Frederich, Olive was looking at him. "Yes what's wrong?"
"Your Excellency Olive. You are called to accompany His Majesty the King on horseback." Frederich. Olive turned her back, she was about to protest and refuse with what the Ox king had asked her. But her mother's face looked angry. Makes Olive not dare to speak.
"You have to want Olive. Remember Ox is just trying to get close to you. This isn't a matchmaking darling, and remember she's already asked Dad for permission. Father has already agreed to it, if you refuse is your father not ashamed later hm? for playing another king."
Olive sighed hearing her mother's words. He finally walked after Frederich to the King.
.........
Aushhh!
Olive was glued to the super beautiful scenery there. Beautiful backyard with someone dashing is riding a dark horse. That was so cool for him. He stared at the man for a long time. That wise face..
The King looked at him. He suddenly smiled happily. Olive looked the other way. Redden hue. The man finally met him. Getting close to his horse. He looked at Olive warmly. "Hey. Good morning sweet, wanna ride with me?"
Olive blushing. He did not want to look at the man in front of him. He nodded slowly. "Eum all right."
Huup!
From up here Olive realized that this horse was very tall, stocky and strong. He was shocked and almost fell because he lost his balance, but the King's hand slowly embraced him. "Calm down."
The King drove the Horse by simultaneously holding it. Olive was frightened because the dark horse turned out to be very tall. He hugged her tightly. His face reddened in hue as his hands clung to His Majesty's robe. He's looking embarrassed. " M-sorry."
"It's okay."
I don't know why his heart is beating. His face flushed with a hue by continuing to bow down. He's very wrong now.
There was no conversation between the two. They are cool looking at the view of the hills and a vast expanse of green rumout. Ox sighed.
"You knew.. My parents are all gone. I'm the only child of them."
Ox said in silence. Olive looked up at him. The reason Ox was elevated to the throne was not just because he deserved to be king.
Father abandoned him. And finally the kingdom of Aurant had a new king successor. The Ox Darriant. Silent with guilt, Olive tried to hear what Ox was talking about. About family.
The man watched the road. He sighed. "Yes, it feels lonely."
ox seemed to smile afterwards, leaving Olive confused. Ox chuckles. Then say something surprising to him.
"And from that, marry me. Then the royal family will be bustling with your son Olive." Said the joking Ox King.
Olive turned and flushed as red as a boiled tomato now. He was not willing to reply to Ox. Because if he retaliated he could not respect the Ox King who was really lonely at this time.
'If that's your goal. I-I'll wait for the day I'll melt you, sir.'
