The Bloom At Royal Harem's
23. A Fact
The Vio POV
BRACKET!
My pillow at the door is innocent. My mood is not good, especially for the man who is currently sitting on his bed. I saw the man flinch a little in shock, before returning to his cool fashion that did not fit me at all.
"Hey, you. Can you knock on the door first?" The man's protest.
I rolled my eyeballs lazily. True, my foster sister Nachella said, dealing with him is far more sickening than having to listen to a debate in the boardroom.
"I don't really care, prince"
"You don't because Nachella thinks you're a brother and Leon thinks you're a sister then you can do it. Remember this is my palace"
"Sorry, Prince Alaskar is not your palace. Except for the palace of King Alexander, your father" I clearly justified his slightly wrong remarks.
Alaskar, the man who is currently fighting with me. I don't know since when, when I saw or accidentally met him made me feel upset. Especially at this time, when I had to let out my frustration at seeing her attitude towards Nachella.
Just imagine, how can Nachella wear 4 dresses at once with different accessories? Did he think Nachella had 4 twins?
"Yes, it's up to you. So what's the matter with you here?" Ask Alaskar.
"I want to protest"
"At whom?"
"YOU" I explained as I pointed at him.
I saw him frowning in wonder, looking at me with a questionable face.
"What do you mean, prince by sending my sister Nachella 4 dresses at once?"
"Hey, since when did Nachella become your sister?"
"Since 5 years ago"
"There" he said in a mocking tone.
If only, there was a flower vase near me. I'd love to throw her in that vase, just let her face look ugly.
Wait, handsome?, wonder me in the heart.
Nook. He was ugly, very ugly, I continued.
"It's the prince, don't divert the conversation. Answer my question! What do you mean by sending Nachella that much dress and asking her to wear it tomorrow?" Ask me again who is trying to straighten out the topic of conversation.
"Nothing and you can get out! The waiter kicked this shitty woman out and didn't let her into my room again without permission" Alaskar said.
Before long, two pulpit women came into his room, holding my hand, forcing me out at Alaskar's behest.
"See you" he said, waving his hands.
I reluctantly let these servants take me out of Alaskar's room, which slowly closed the door from the inside.
"SISTER!" Shouted someone I knew very well.
"Chella"
"Take off, Brother Vio!" nachella's orders were immediately supported by the servants who had now bowed to greet him.
"Greetings to Princess Nachella"
"Yes, stand! Why did my brother take you like that?"
"For instance, Princess. The second prince asked us to throw Miss Vio out of his room" explained one of the women who had taken me.
"Ah, sister. What are you doing to Kak Alaskar's room for?" Nachella asked in full search looking at me.
"I wanted to scold her for giving you a pretty much full dress while you had to wear it at one time" I explained.
"Because of that? Really?"
"Yes, what is your brother really lying to?"
"alright. For the dress, sister, take it easy, I've thought about it" she said with a hard-to-understand smile. Before finally taking me with him down the palace garden.

A day has passed. Tonight it was so cold, the wind blew fiercely along with the fall of thousands of drops of snow that fell to the earth. The cold, clean white street welcomed anyone who came out of his residence, making the person have to use a thick coat on his body.
In the other corner of the Kingdom of Courlage, a young woman was standing facing several pairs of colorful dresses that hung perfectly.
Her tiny fingers slowly picked up a blue dress which she then wore. His eyes closed while memorizing the spell.
"Mergerast" he said.
Instantly when he opened his eyes a bright white light filled the room. The room was now empty, only a few objects were seen there.3 pieces of hanging dresses, a large mirror, and several neatly arranged crowns on the dressing table. Besides, there was a young woman who was mengawum beautiful smile featuring a sweet niche on her cheek.
Her hand took the 3 dresses, clenched and hugged her tightly before a bright light shone back from her body that floated in the air while spinning. Before long his feet rested again, along with the light that began to disappear from his body.
He slowly stepped up, approaching a large mirror that hung without any refutation. He saw the reflection of himself wrapped in a blue A-Line velvet dress with a thick robe accent on his back, a small silver ribbon line and a brown constellation motif on the front.
Now his gaze turned to the crown. He held both crowns with his right and left hands and then his eyes closed again until a bright light came out of the crown which slowly turned into a fused light that rotated above his head. Her blue iris opened again, her eyes staring at the astonishment of her magic results. A black-colored crown wrapped in hibiscus flowers and blue crystals glowed the same as the iris of his eyes.
No!
Flick his finger, as soon as the atmosphere returns to how it was. No more white light filled the room that now has displayed a series of furniture.
Slowly but surely, his steps were fixed on the large door with the opening of the door featuring rows of servants and a woman who was ready to welcome him with a big smile.

Cold air mixed with cold and gripping atmosphere filled the room filled with several pairs of families who were sitting on several round tables arranged to fill the room.
Right at the end of the room, the highest position there is a family with shining clothes signifying its social status at the top. Besides there is another table that looks empty yet occupied by no one there. Until an announcement reverberated along with the opening of a large door featuring the family who became the mastermind of the event today.
In the front row, a pulabaya man, Alexander who looked neat in a red suit, with a black dragon accent and a large crown made of gold attached to his head. Behind him stood Leon wrapped in a white and gold suit with a crown on his head indicating himself as the crown prince. Beside him Alaskar with his dazzling smile, his body was wrapped in a blue suit in matching color with the woman behind him who was the main character tonight.
The young lady with a sweet smile on her face, her slender body wrapped in a blue A-Line dress. His long brown hair was left untouched, up to the waist. Beside him stood a woman with a difference of 10 centimeters. The woman looked beautiful in an aqua-colored ballgown. His long silver hair was strung together and glued together with an iris-shaped dangling decoration with a few accents of blue crystals around him.
All eyes were on them. Unceasingly several pairs of eyes clucked in awe at the appearance of the family that looks like a painting from a fairy tale. But there are also those who ask in their hearts about the woman who coincided with the main character, Nachella.
"Stand" said Alexander who immediately supported the guests.
Now Alexander and his children walked to the table they had prepared. Yet their steps came to a halt right in a family with a glowing aura.
"Greetings Your Majesty Emperor Andreas, Greetings Empress Rovalatus, Greetings Crown Prince of the Felixious Empire. May Goddess Anocia protect you" the Courlage family said at the same time. They look down 90 degrees, with the same position as when entering the room.
"Stand Alexander" Andreas said as he held Alexander's shoulder which immediately returned to his upright position.
"You don't want to stand?" Rova asked with a stifled laugh as she looked at the still loyal Courlage brothers in a bent position.
"Izin replied to the empress, You have not allowed us to stand up and so we do not dare" Nachella said in the same position with her three brothers, Leon, Alaskar, and Vio.
"stand. Are you the famous Princess Nachella?" Rova asked shortly after the Courlage brothers returned to their standing position.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Your Majesty, I am Princess Nachella. But your flattery is too much because I am not that famous" Nachella said.
"really? But I've heard you a lot from Felix. He's been talking about you since his return from the Academy. Aren't you, Felix?" Rova asked with a gaze that was now fixed on her son who was still standing with an expressionless straight look looking at Nachella.
"Felix?" Call Rova to wake Felix.
"I.. Yes, ma'am" Felix surprised.
"Just let Felix do what you said?"
"Really, uh. Right what?" Ask back Felix who was still in a daze after his silence.
"Are you talking about my sister, Nachella?" Asked Leon with a sharp look.
On the other hand, Nachella and Vio were frowning at the reaction of Leon and Alaskar who were ready with clenched hands that they hid behind his suit. Leon's sharp gaze on Felix also did not escape the attention of Nachella who slightly boasted a smile featuring a niche on her cheek.
"Who? Me?" Ask Felix.
"Yes, who else if not you, Crown Prince Felix?" Said Alaskar who began to run out of patience.
Felix frowned, trying to digest the question that came suddenly to him.
"I never talked about it. Who said that?" Elak Felix's.
"Mother" said Rova with a wide smile without her sin.
She saw Felix's smile being forcibly drawn, with a questionable look at her mother.
"Mother, when did I say that?"
"Every day"
"No!"
"Yes"
"No!"
"That's enough, you guys everywhere always have your own world. We are guests here, so be quiet" said Andreas trying to break up the debate of the mother and child that seemed endless.
Andreas' gaze turned to the figure of the silver-bladed young lady standing beside Nachella, especially with the same silver mane as hers and all her descendants. Green eyes were soothing, and a dazzling sweet smile that seemed familiar to him.
"Alexander, who is the woman next to Princess Nachella? Don't you just have a daughter?" Ask Andreas full of questions.
Instantly all pairs of eyes were on the woman who was none other than Vio. Surprised Vio unknowingly clasped his grip on Nachella, causing Nachella to turn to him.
"Izin replied, Your Majesty, he is my adoptive brother who I found in the forest, his name is Vionnary Roosevelt Embrige" said Nachella who was aware of Vio's nervousness.
Vio immediately bowed a sign of respect, then introduced himself with his bated smile.
"Greetings Your Majesty, I am Vionnary Roosevelt Embrige. For the good of Princess Nachella, I was raised to be her foster sister and treated like a princess from the Kingdom of Courlage" Vio said.
Andreas immediately nodded, a sign of understanding. But his mind was back on the last name attached to Vio's name. The same name as the woman he missed. The figure that had left him for a dozen years.
Anne, inner Andreas.
"Embrige? Your Embrige? From your father's family or your mother's name came from?" Ask Andrew again.
"Izin replied, Your Majesty. From my mother's clan. I only lived alone with my mother in a residence guarded by several people, while my father never came back to see us since the age of 3 years" explained Vio.
Andreas slowly walked over to Vio who was now looking down, staring at the floor of the banquet hall.
"Anneline Desvre Embrige" Andreas said.
Instantly Vio looked up, looking at Andreas with a face of disbelief. Because there was no one he told about his mother's name, including Nachella. Vio always kept the secret tight, letting it be stored together with his heart wound that was slowly healing. But the wound opened again, just as the number one imperial person said three words that made tears flow from his eyes.
"Baa.. How do you know, Your Majesty?" Ask Vio who still does not believe.
Alexander, who understood the situation, apologized to the guests by saying that the banquet had been completed which immediately made the hall seem desolate there were only the Courlage Family and the Eiderlands Family.
"Vio, forgive me" said Andreas who tried to hold Vio's shoulder directly.
"Dad, what do you mean, Your Majesty?" Vio asked with a quivering voice holding back his sob.
"Your mother, Anne is my concubine. She is a cheerful, loving and beautiful woman. It has eyes as clear as a full moon with tiny, thin lips as red as a cherry" Andreas explained with a blank look.
In his imagination, he saw the memory of his past while with Consort Anne who was running down the palace garden. Until Andreas' steps stopped, his hand moved to pluck the frangipani then tucked it in the ear of Consort Anne who was smiling shyly displaying a reddish tinge on her cheek.
"Consort? Then why did you leave me and my mother? What's our fault that you threw away something that's no longer useful?" Vio asked in anger as he recalled his mother's blank stare at the family painting featuring him, 3-year-old Vio, and a man with a torn head.
"I'm sorry, my son. I never intended to leave you and your mother"
"really? Where have you been all this time? Busy with imperial duties, until my mother died you don't know? And you never even found out about my whereabouts? Enough, if having me is a burden. Then I will leave my name without your peerage. Let me be a commoner" explained Vio who immediately left with a face filled with tears.
On the other hand, Andreas stared at Vio's departure. The figure of the princess he had been looking for and longing for. But it seems like fate has no intention of uniting them or maybe destiny brings them together at a less appropriate time.
"Your Majesty, I have permission to resign" said Nachella who immediately got a nod to Andreas' head.
Soon after Nachella ran, chasing after Vio who went out of nowhere.
"Your Majesty, it's best that you, the Empress and the Crown Prince go home first. Let Princess Vio calm herself down. Later my daughter, Nachella will try to explain it" said Alexander who tried to calm Andreas who is now rubbed back by Rova who tried to calm him.
"Alright, Alexander. I wait for the good news and thank you for taking care of my daughter" said Andreas who immediately went out of the room with a limped step.
