The Marrying The Prince

63

"You don't have to be that hard as Ana"

Anastasia only glanced at the look on Ferdinand's face that was looking at her tiredly. Already Anastasia said, if she didn't care. He could not care anymore about Ferdinand's tired face, he could not care anymore when Ferdinand said that tonight he wanted to talk without pulling each other's neck veins.

"He's sassy"

Ferdinand took a deep breath. He knew that if Elsa had indeed been presumptuous when she dared to go there because obviously, herself had also reminded Kenna and Elsa not to carelessly roam again, especially wandering in Anastasia's favorite places.

"She said she was unintentional. She's immature and has a high curiosity Ana"

"He touched the items Princess Francesca gave him"

This time, Ferdinand snorted violently and was annoyed

"You've been very careful about Frances's giving, but you've ruined my giving"

Back, Anastasia glanced at Ferdinand for a moment

"Autumn is coming, and the flowers are on sa-"

"I know you only reasoned Ana" Anastasia's mouth shut, unable to continue her words as Ferdinand had already cut off and forwarded the words properly. Ferdinand who saw the inertia of Anastasia spoke again. "You're upset and angry with me. That's why you ruined my gift"

Back, Anastasia was silent. His gaze had already returned to look at the ceiling of Ferdinand's room. Ferdinand who again saw the inertia of Anastasia looked at Anastasia gently, himself again opened his voice with no less soft.

"If I apologize, you're definitely not going to take it for granted. Because it's Ana, tell me what I have to do to get your forgiveness"

The direction of Anastasia's gaze moved back to look at Ferdinand, staring fixedly and in the two dark beads in both eyes as green as the unlucky leaves, still the most beautiful eye color for Anastasia. A gentle smile of Anastasia rose.

Ferdinand, who could finally look back at that smile, a smile that he had never had again for a few days, felt that he had gotten the green light.

"Say Ana. What should I do to forgive you"

"Give them a lot of money, then throw them away from your life"

But Ferdinand was wrong, Anastasia's gentle smile was not a green light but a last chance Anastasia gave. Anastasia gave Ferdinand one last chance, although Ferdinand did not know that now all the rest of their relationship would sail. Whether in the direction of repair, or in the direction of destruction.

Silence still enveloped them, their directions of view still colliding, their beads of eyes still dabbling into each other. Anastasia locked her mouth tightly as Ferdinand looked at her deeply, and Ferdinand opened his mouth as Anastasia's gaze began to shake her promises

"I can't Ana. They're my responsibility, especially Kenna. I've known him for a long time and we've been through a lot to be together. I knew her long before I knew you even though you're my wife now. Honestly, I love you Ana, I~~~"

Ferdinand's long speech continued to soften in Anastasia's ears, flowing without being digested again in Anastasia's brain. Anastasia just kept silent as she continued to look at Ferdinand who kept opening his mouth, I don't know what Ferdinand kept saying but, Anastasia already got the answer. He already did not need Ferdinand's words or nonsense anymore.

Upon seeing Ferdinand's mouth clench again and the sound that kept crashing into his ears stopped. Anastasia again smiled gently, straightened her legs, sliding her body out the table, crossing her legs while pulling both sides of her dress.

Ferdinand who saw the sudden motion of Anastasia immediately rose from his chair, his feelings were really very uncomfortable, a sense that was not understood

"Ana?"

"Good night, Your Highness"

"Yes!!"

As wide as his legs were able, as fast as his feet were able, Anastasia immediately headed for the connecting door without wanting to turn her head again.

Ferdinand held onto his chest which felt squeezed and very uncomfortable. An uneasy feeling he did not know, a feeling and a feeling that inexplicably frightened Ferdinand.

When Anastasia had closed and locked the door of her room, Anastasia pulled the key and stepped towards the window, opening the window wide and throwing away the connecting key of their room without hesitation. Anastasia's direction of vision was still staring far out, a grain, two clear crystal grains were rapidly sliding from both eyes.

"Alright Ferdinand"

After a sigh, Anastasia closed the window again and headed for her closet. Looking for a box he's been keeping for half his life. Anastasia landed her butt on the floor, then opened her memory storage box.

With tears back in her eyes, Anastasia stared at the dull, torn, elongated handkerchief that was inedible with age. A handkerchief that means a lot to her. With a bitter smile, Anastasia opened her mouth

"I've known you for a long time, I lost my mind when your father betrayed and deceived me, I dared to look back at you when your father gave me hope, I again dare to try to knit a dream that I only want to be quiet when I see your laughter, I am willing to let go of my kingdom willingly in order to be with you. Is that all the less, Ferdinand?"

Warm clear liquid spilled back, melted from both eyes Anastasia

"Why does loving you feel this cruel? Why does loving you feel this hot? Why Ferdinand?"

And tonight... Anastasia is at her decision. He has made his decision. His decision that he would fight for even if he had to keep running and was covered in blood. Running, hiding, and disappearing with a whole body full of cuts and blood dripping was nothing new for Anastasia. Because the girl was covered in wounds, she no longer cared about anything.

--000--

After ushering in the departure of the aunty, Aanstasia took a deep breath while staring at the castle's bang. After this, he will return to living life as it has been, and of course after this also the two troublemakers will be able to return to roam, free from their cages. There was no longer any reason to lock them up, no more thing that made Ferdinand to hold them back.

Just as Anastasia was thinking about the source of her household damage, two people she desperately wanted showed up. Appeared while smiling at Anastasia

"Good day, Your Highness"

Anastasia just kept quiet and started taking her steps to get in but, her steps came to a halt as Kenna closed her way, her path that was going towards the entrance. While continuing to smile kindly, Kenna stared fixedly at Anastasia's pitiful face while saying

"So they are Her Majesty's sister-in-law and Her Majesty's sister who came from Albany?"

"What do you want?"

Waw! Kenna chuckled amusedly as her friendly speech was coldly countered by Anastasia. He knew that Anastasia now hated him so much, but Anastasia should know his position right? She was indeed Ferdinand's wife, but Kenna was the mother of Ferdinand's child-to-be and most importantly, Kenna was the woman Ferdinand loved dearly

"You're too unfriendly Your Highness"

"It doesn't take much to talk miss. Tell me what you want"

Kenna's ticklishness slid back from her lips. He stared at Anastasia who kept staring at him flatly

"I just want us to be friends, Your Highness. Let's start by calling each other names?"

This time, an amused firmness slid from Anastasia's lips. Amazing shameless!

"You're too confident, miss. Anyway, I don't like being friends with whores"

Anastasia's words almost made Elsa who was always loyal to accompany her brother forward, and wanted to avenge Anastasia with a strong impulse but, Kenna immediately pulled her sister's arm.

"Be careful with your mouth Your Highness"

The smooth and graceful raveness returned gliding from Anastasia's lips

"Is there something wrong with my words?"

Patiently, Kenna again put on her gentle smile, the smile that followed Anastasia's smile. Anastasia knew that, because she always realized that Kenna was too blatantly studying it and then immediately applied what she learned, again, blatantly

"This child I bear is the Son of His Highness Prince Ferdinand of Francia, therefore I remind you to be careful in speaking. The fetus in my stomach is a descendant of a Castalarox"

And that was when, the faint sound of laughter restrained, the sound of laughter that did not want to hold back rang out and blew carried away by the wind that landed on Kenna's auditory senses. The voices came from the servants, guards and also Carl. It was Carl who was hiding behind the tree who let out the most powerful laughter, O God.... The contents of Carl's stomach feel like jumping out when Kenna's words make a whole body tickled amused.

"Carl"

"Sorry Your Highness. But.. It's so funny"

And Carl, back to the strong

Anastasia shook her head while smiling in amusement because of Carl's behavior, then reminded Carl again

"Don't laugh at Carl, a woman like this obviously doesn't understand anything"

"Good Your Highness. I'm sorry"

Not only did Carl end up suppressing his laughter and gel taste, all the servants and guards around them also instantly shut their mouths shut.

While Kenna, clutching firmly in her dress, her jaw firmly clenched, streaks of anger were evident on every line of her face. Anastasia who saw the burning anger Kenna smiled understandably but also amusedly, then returned to her voice

"Do you know why they're all laughing Miss Kenna?"

Kenna's smile rose, her chin raised high while looking at Anatasia sharply.

"I don't know, but I know what you all don't know"

"Ohh what is that, Miss Kenna?"

Culas Kenna's smile turned into a grin.

"Things you won't get, Your Highness... Didn't-" Kenna dissected, and followed Anastasia who was linking hands in front of her belly gracefully. "Aren't you never touched by Your Highness?"

Anastasia stiffened, her hands clinging to each other. No, not because what Kenna said was entirely true, but about why Kenna could know? who told him? where and when exactly did he know?

Surprised and full of questions, Anastasia put on her best smile

"Well... Is that your only advantage Miss Kenna?" Anastasia searched, looked at Kenna who was looking at her with a waiting face, then spoke again. "Very appropriate, your superiority greatly pounces at you-" Back Anastasia searched, then chuckled softly as she spoke. "A prostitute?"

"Kenna's not a whore! he's Dinand's girlfriend! Kenna and Dinand were lovers before being forced to marry you! Dinand has also proposed"

"You always mentioned 'Dinand' and 'Dinand' miss Elsa" Elsa was silent, and Anastasia changed her point of view on Kenna. "Why do you always call him Dinand, or do you not know what his name is?"

"Ferdinand Castalarox!"

Elsa answered strongly with a shrill voice annoying her. Anastasia's smile rises

"Aahhhhhhhhhh... Don't miss Kenna all this time, as long as being the lover of His Highness to the hamili do not know the name of the man who impregnated you, your lover right?"

Obviously Kenna could only shut up, Anastasia knew that. The full name of a son and daughter will be very rarely introduced and mentioned in public. Outsiders would not be able to hear their long names other than the King, Queen, or his own person mentioning his name in public, and when the person mentioned his own name, it was the King, that must be the time of her wedding vows.

Anastasia was convinced that the King and Queen had mentioned Ferdinand's long name in public but, although Kenna heard it, she was convinced that Kenna would not remember it. The names of the members of the royal nuclear family must be more than three names along with the family name, and it is quite difficult to remember especially because it is very rarely mentioned. Anastasia, who saw the silence of Kenna and Elsa, got the truth from her calculations.

"Miss Kenna, if I were you, I should know first the name of my new lover I would be willing to sleep with, my max..." Anastasia searched as she began to move towards the entrance. "When I heard my girlfriend say her name on the wedding vows" Anastasia changed her gaze to look at Elsa "And you, never forget to put down 'His Highness' politely at all times in public, since you are no more than or equal to your status, if you don't, it's the same as insulting and degrading"

While continuing to step up, Anastasia recalled something, then stopped her steps for a moment to speak

"Oh. I almost forgot Miss Kenna. One more thing, the most important thing. Your son can only become a Castalarox if he exists because of marriage, it is the absolute law of a royal family. So, if you're not married to His Majesty King Fredrick" Seringai Anastasia rose while staring at Kenna's already red face. "The child forever, until his death, will only be an illegitimate child. That's why everyone here is laughing at you, Miss Kenna"

Anastasia no longer needed to play soft, play gracefully, and play elegant. Anastasia did and just say what was in her mind, Anastasia just let out all her feelings when facing Kenna. Because from any angle, point, length, elbow, section, diameter, multiple, Kenna will still look and sound more despicable. That was the message of the aunty when they had just arrived from Albany, and Anastasia, would carry out obediently the requests of her aunty from now on.

--000--

Kenna continued to fidget and could not sleep because she kept thinking about Anastasia's words. At first he was very sure if everything would go well, but Anastasia's remarks last afternoon made him need a certainty, just to make sure. Because of that, now Kenna was already in front of Ferdinand's room door. He kept glancing around, afraid someone was passing by, because Kenna remembered Ferdinand's message not to approach his room. Until Kenna felt safe, her hands began to knock on the door

TOK TOK TOK

Ferdinand who had just finished tidying the papers on his desk waited for the sound from behind the door to be knocked, and since there was no sound, excitedly his feet immediately stepped towards the door, he thought it was Anastasia. Because obviously only Anastasia man in her castle who does not need to notify the arrival when going to visit her room.

But alas, Ferdinand's hope was missed because Kenna was the one who appeared when he had returned the door.

"Why Kenna?"

Kenna bit her lips while looking at Ferdinand doubtfully

"Can we talk Dinand?"

Ferdinand's brows furrowed in confusion, but still nodded, as there seemed to be something important that Kenna would say.

"Come in"

After entering the room, Kenna noticed all the shapes, furniture, equipment, cabinets, chairs, carpets, and all the luxurious things nuanced red in the room. The room was clearly more luxurious than his room.

"What's wrong?"

Kenna's assessment came to a halt as Ferdinand already made a sound while looking at her. Kenna glanced at the chair that was there

"May I sit down?"

Ferdinand lazily pulled out a chair, and returned to his voice

"Sit Kenna. What's up?"

After Kenna's butt landed on the chair, Kenna took a deep breath for a moment, then began to vent to clarify her anger

"I heard if our son can only be a Castalarox, when we get married?"

Ferdinand's gaze looked at Kenna in full detail

"Who told you?"

Kenna's hands were clenched, who told her? means it could be true? and that thought made Kenna even more eager to make things clear.

"Jawab Dinand"

Ferdinand's head nodded confidently

"really"

Ahhe... It turned out that Ferdinand had never told him this, or was it intentional? If so, he must do something. Kenna looked at Ferdinand while putting on her gentle smile, she had to clarify her son's future even more than herself

"So, when are we going to marry Dinand?"
