"Oh my dear, my love~" Prince Julius hummed as he played Eve's hair left free. "After we move to Brodsway, I'm sure you're the most beautiful girl."
"Thank you, prince." Eve moved slowly to give them some distance between them.
Because Prince Julius was busy seducing, their seats finally stuck and it really made Eve uncomfortable and ended up uncomfortable. Across them were the three Eve brothers who both noticed the imbalance of feelings. Each began to judge, although knowing their opinion of Prince Julius it will not affect anything on their youngest brother's wedding which will be held shortly after spring.
"Why is Lady Luvena the most beautiful, prince?" ask Beckett bluntly. Heed Ethan's elbow on his left side and Deheman slowly from Declan. "Aren't there many other women who might have managed to attract your attention rather than my quiet sister" he continued, glancing at Eve who always looked down.
Yes, a little quiet when there was Prince Julius nearby.
"At Brodsway very few beautiful women." Prince Julius chuckled. His eyes were not even separated from Eve who would soon become his fiancee. "No— even at Brodsway there may not be a beautiful woman. The winter there almost took eleven months each year, causing us all to have pale white skin and the same hair color. Therefore, the blonde hair and blue eyes of Lady Luvena will be a new color in Brodsway," he explained at length.
"Ah, I just found out about it."
"No problem. Therefore, do not hesitate to ask me, adik~" he said kindly with a wide smile.
Soon the entrance was opened. This time the Duke of Lumiere was seen still wearing his formal clothes along with the right hand, Baron O'Neil and several other guards. While on the left side of the duke there is also Prince Lucas who from the beginning did not release his gaze from Eve and Prince Julius who looked close even though he had first met. Like old acquaintances. And that makes Lucas sick.
All that there is the dining room suddenly stood no exception Prince Julius. After the Duke of Lumiere and Prince Lucas sat in their place, they sat back in their respective places.
"Sorry, I'm a little late, Prince Julius of Brodsway. And now is the first dinner of all of us, while I just can't go home in time" said Zachary open the conversation.
"It's not a problem. While waiting, I talked a lot with Lady Luvena as well as all the lords who were here. I think we know each other well enough."
"Is that so?" The Duke of Lumiere nodded slowly. His eyes then glanced to the left side. "Include His Royal Highness Prince Julius of Brodsway. Next to me is the next Sasanian crown prince, Prince Lucas. As the guest of honor, His Royal Highness is willing to take the time to welcome your arrival here."
"Well, I'm not feeling good." Prince Julius scratched his nape as Lucas' cold gaze pointed straight at him. "Must be a lot of your precious time wasted just because of this dinner alone, huh?"
"Not in vain. All done for Sasania."
Is it Julius' only feeling that Prince Lucas behaved to him like he was treating an enemy? I-it .. I hope it's not true.
Hearing that cold short answer, Ethan and Beckett looked at each other. The Duke of Lumiere pretended not to hear, while Declan was still as calm as before.
Prince Julius laughed dryly. "Yes, you're right. Demi Sasania .. and Brodsway," corrected her in a soft voice at the end of the speech.
"Thank you because young people of such an important status like you are willing to sit in my humble dining room." He smiled briefly. "Rather than waiting a long time, should we eat now?" Afterwards the Duke of Lumiere clapped his hands twice.
The door reopened. But unlike the previous door which was devoted only to the Lumiere Family and guests, this time the door on the west side carried several special food trolleys side by side accompanied by small chandeliers that lit elegantly. Various types of food in the bowl are placed on the second shelf with water pots. While on the top shelf there are foods such as giant lobster cooked with lemon juice and oyster sauce.
The aroma is very appetizing.
"Prince Julius, as Brodsway's representative, should we know what foods you can't eat?" ask the duke while the waiter deftly arranges all the food until it fills the dining table. "So I can ask the waiter to get rid of the food now."
"We ate everything, take it easy," Julius replied enthusiastically. "Even my grandfather, the previous king had eaten a human, and that doesn't matter."
"Ohuk!" Eve hastily picked up the sloki that was already filled with sweet orange juice and drank it in a hurry.
After taking a deep breath, he tried to reach for the bowl filled with scallop soup. In front of him. Feeling someone staring, Eve looked up. And sure enough, Lucas was staring at him sharply like he was staring at a criminal.
No, it's not really a look at criminals. Except the gaze .. jealousy.
It's just that Eve is insensitive.
Eve returned that sharp look with an innocent look. Indeed, he did something wrong?
"Don't be in a hurry, Lady Luvena. After all, the clams will not move from your bowl" said the duke trying to melt the atmosphere. He hoped this one Prince Brodsway wasn't an irritable man. "And prince, don't act too presumptuously. Think of my little castle as your second home after Brodsway's castle."
"Oh, how can I not hesitate? Listen-listen, the Duke of Lumiere is number three in Sasania?" His eyes glinted curiously. "That is to say if this new crown prince is not competent enough, then you will rise to be king?"
Declan's gonna be whirring. This time it was harder. "Sorry to interrupt, prince. But in Sasania, your words just indicated you were labeled as traitors."
"Eh, how horrible?" Prince Julius looked at Declan in disbelief. "Anda. I just said 'smell'. Was it in Sasania that treachery included?"
Beckett nodded firmly. "Such a remark is tantamount to belittling our crown prince."
"You calm down, Prince Julius is new here. I don't have a problem with what he says." Lucas spoke up at the end. Either way, his name was also involved in this small matter. Lucas, who had initially just held the spoon, finally released the silver bar back. "After all, I'm not hungry yet. Then please continue your dinner. I'm gonna take a walk around here to breathe some fresh air."
Lucas is not hungry. It's just, he's hot!
Heat saw how the less caressed Prince Julius approached his precious Eve.
"It looks like I have to have a one-on-one conversation with Prince Lucas" Julius said. "I'll excuse you, too, Your Grace. Sorry to bother you, please continue with dinner."
After the two guests left, Zachary sighed. Look at Eve who is still busy fighting jelly bean with Beckett at the end of the table there. Declan notices the two, while Ethan seems eagerly cheering Eve not to lose to Beckett.
Oh, comeon. Is it true that the woman who is fighting over jelly bean will soon get married? With that childish attitude?!
"The jelly bean you're fighting over is still a lot on the table." Zachary pointed towards the jelly bean that was full inside a glass bowl.
"Food is more delicious, Your Grace." After saying that, Beckett grinned wide.
Zachary shook his head. Oh my God, these kids. When will they grow up? Is until the next only Declan can be really serious in dealing with all the problems. Now, their dinner show ends up failing. Zachary could only massage his pulsating temple.
"Enough, go back to being formal. Tonight's guests are two important people in their respective kingdoms. I hope you can keep a good name and never show this kind of childish attitude in front of them."
"Well, Your Grace," Eve and Beckett replied weakly.
"Good." Zachary started his dinner with fruit pudding.
Suddenly the entrance was opened.
"Everyone, sorry to be late. My slow waiter was—" the newly arrived Britney finally realized where their guest was missing. "In the meantime, where are Prince Julius and Prince Lucas? Didn't you say they were already here, Your Grace?"
"You're a few minutes late, My Lady." Ethan crossed his hands in front of his chest. "The two princes are gone. It's not their fault, it's because you're late."
"B-but I look beautiful to them." Britney almost cried.
She was willing to dress up for about two hours in front of the mirror, but she felt her sacrifice was not appreciated at all here.
"Why do you have to dress up for them, lady?" Eve Sahut lazily. "Your husband, right, is also here. Why not dress up for her?"
"Little boy, don't be so admonishing!" Lady Britney in an instant turned into a dragon that was ready to spout fire. "Take a snack in front of you and be quiet. That's because I don't need any comment from you!"
"The sword" Eve murmured as she stuffed a pink jelly bean in her mouth. "Later your makeup results fail if you are always angry. Look." Eve pointed at Lady Britney's slightly folded forehead. "Your forehead is wrinkled. So, no matter how thick your makeup is, it can't cover your actual age."
Lady Britney was silent. His two sons were heard to hold back laughter while Declan quickly looked away. Worse yet, the Duke of Lumiere even mocked him who —according to him— is already amazingly beautiful.
"Shut up! You don't know what art is, so just shut up and enjoy your stupidity!" After saying this, Lady Britney took a deep breath and left with her frenzied ladies. Leaving the other Lumiere family members in an amused giggle.
"The words were very rude" Zachary said after laughing at Britney. "He'll get punished for what he said."
