Chapter 26: She Knows Nothing

Allynna lay on her bed while staring at the chandelier on the ceiling. Her mind is busy digesting Leon's explanations about her birth parents and why she ended up on this island.

She is upset because, at this time, she has not been able to meet them yet. However, hearing that her parents are still alive and have never abandoned her makes her heart delighted. Even now, they are still looking for her. And it is healing the sorrowful feeling that has lingered in her heart for so long. 

Now, Allynna would follow Leon's advice. She will focus on school while practicing her superpower once it appears.

Talking about her superpower, Leon promised to be her mentor to cultivate her power to the fullest.

She was excited to know what abilities she would acquire.

Can she read minds like Leon?

How many skills will she magically develop? Is it just one, or could it be more than one?

From the history books she read, the purer the royal blood that flows in the body of the chosen one, the greater the chance that they have more than one ability. Like the emperor, it is said that he has three or even more. 

'How about Leon? How many abilities does he have?' She wonders. 

Allynna believed Leon could read minds because he could correctly guess what was going through her mind almost all the time.

Knowing this, Allynna tried not to think about anything specific when she was in front of or around him. However, it was arduous because her confidence immediately perished every time she looked into his golden eyes.

...

A knock on the door alerts Allynna.

She wakes up and straightens her clothes before she asks who it is.

"My Lady, This is Lella..."

Allynna was relieved when she heard Lella's voice.

"What is it, Lella..?" She tries hard to act like a true, noble lady. 

"My Lady, dinner is ready. I'll take you to the dining room," Lella said while bowing her head.

When Allyna arrived at the dining room, she saw Leon seated at the end of the long table. She immediately went to the chair Geoffrey had prepared and sat on Leon's left side.

She greeted Leon politely before taking her seat. And as usual, he just nodded with his deadpan expression. 

"Miss Allynna, you must remember. Breakfast is always at 7 AM and dinner at 7 PM. It would be pleasant if you could be on time." Leon said, then started to eat. 

"Yes, Sir. I will remember," Allynna answered him softly.

They are eating in silence.

Allynna tries to enjoy dinner with a dish she has never seen before. She also focuses her thoughts only on the foods in front of her. The grilled meat looks delicious, and when she tastes it, it is rich in flavor and makes her mouth-watering for more. She began to guess the spices used by the chef while chewing her food slowly.

She excitedly wanted to make these dishes. But she became cheerless when she realized she couldn't cook at Leon's mansion.

But deep in her heart, Allynna still hopes she has another chance to cook because every time she cooks, she feels her mind and spirit become at ease, remembering her mom.

'Sir Leon, I hope you allow me to cook in your house. I promise to make a delicious meal for you,' Allynna wondered, knowing that Leon could hear her mind, so she purposely thought that way.

...

Before long, their dinner finished. 

"Would you like to walk on the beach, Miss Allynna? It looks amazing even at night." Leon's offer made Allynna raise her head and look at him before she nodded.

She's been wanting to go to the beach ever since. But this noon, she was so absorbed in her thoughts that she forgot to go outside. She just spent her day shutting herself in her room, so she missed the opportunity to enjoy the beauty of the beach before sunset.

They walked side by side on a dark beach, with only the moonlight shining on the sky.

Allynna enjoys the moment when the night breeze hits her gently. Leon purposely let her walk before him without speaking to her. She enjoyed it. This is the first time she can stroll on the beach after her parents die.

"It would be nice to swim here," Allynna says to herself. She wouldn't waste her energy talking to Leon because she knew the man rarely responded if she asked. 

After they walked for a while, Allynna stopped and looked ahead to the moonlit and calm sea. In her mind, she suddenly thinks about a list of questions that she wants to ask him. She glanced at him.

Leon also stopped his step and now stood not too far from her.

"Sir Leon, may I ask you something?"

He glanced at her without saying a word, but he nodded. 

"How old are you?"

Leon raises his eyebrow as if confused by this girl's question. How could she ask such an unimportant thing? For immortals like them, age was not something to think about. Because they will live forever, so no one will ever question it.

"Did you read your historical book, Miss Allynna?" Leon didn't answer her curiosity but asked her instead.

Allynna was taken aback.

"What's wrong? Shouldn't I also ask about age?"

Leon turned his face away from hers and looked back at the dark sea before him. He thought this girl needed a tutor to teach her about the royal family and the chosen one. She knows nothing.

Allynna tongue ties again, facing Leon's muted state. She set aside her intention to ask him and followed him to stare at the sea far ahead. They stood side by side in silence until Allynna felt a coat landed on her.

She immediately looked at him, who was now staring at her in the eyes.

"S-Sir Leon—" Allynna felt the sound of her heartbeat increase when their eyes met.

Chapter 27: Her Feeling

"Let's go back. Tomorrow, you have to wake up early for the exam," Leon said. He didn't give her time to respond; he walked toward the house. 

Allynna, who was speechless in her place in a hurry, chased after him, but Leon's wide steps made her fall behind. She walked quickly after him and walked in silence until they arrived on the second floor.

She, staring at Leon's back, disappeared behind his bedroom door. After his bedroom door closed, she also walked into her room with mixed feelings.

Standing frozen behind the bedroom door, she places her hands on her chest, trying to feel her heartbeat. She felt like there was a war drum inside her heart — this was something she had never felt before. 

"What is this? Why do I feel like this?" Allynna asks herself.

Allynna couldn't recognize this nameless feeling, but she could feel her heart beating fast whenever she imagined his face.

She touched her forehead, trying to feel her body temperature. She was shocked; her body temperature felt so hot. 

Allynna was afraid she had a fever because tomorrow she had the final exam.

"Dear God, please don't make me sick. I have to be healthy," Allynna prayed. She blames herself for standing by the sea for too long.

Allynna immediately went to the bathroom to clean up, but her step stopped by the mirror when she saw her reflection.

She gasped in suprised when she saw Leon's coat still hanging on her body.

A faint smile graced her lips as she touched the coach gently. She tightened the coat to envelop her tiny body. But what she did made her mind chaotic once more. She could feel Leon hugging her with his coat and smell Leon's familiar scent. 

'Gosh, Allynna!!' She couldn't hide how happy she was, but when he saw her cheek had turned red, blushing. Instantly, she took off his coat and threw it away on the table.

After a few minutes in the bathroom, Allynna feels fresher after drying her wet hair. In her white nightgown, she walked into the bedroom.

She tried to divert her mind, which was filled with images of Leon, but it was difficult to distract her until her gaze landed on the historical book on the desk.

For the last time, she will try to read the book before tomorrow's first exam starts. Two subjects, History and Science, will be tested on the first day. Math will be held on the last day.

For Science and Math, she is not worried. The subject was so easy for her. But for History, she's not confident. Only in the last few weeks had she felt interested in learning it.

Allynna lay on her bed while reading the book.

After some time,

"My Lady...My Lady..."

Allynna was surprised to hear Lella's voice near her. She slowly opened her eyes, but a second later, she closed her eyes again because the bright light suddenly blinded her eyes.

She tried to open her eyes again while trying to think, but her mind was still not working clearly.

Allynna remembered that she had been reading a history book the previous night, and only the bedside lamp was turned on. But now, the room was brightly lit while Lella stood worriedly at the side of her bed.

'Am I dreaming, or is it already daytime?' Allynna thought confusedly.

It didn't take long for Allynna to realize. 

"Oh my god, did I oversleep?" Allynna quickly got up and looked at the clock. She was relieved she wasn't late. But she didn't have much time either. She ran to the bathroom.

A few minutes later, with her body wrapped in a bathrobe, she exited the bathroom and found her school uniform neatly folded on a neat bed.

Lella approached Allynna and tried to help her put on her uniform. Allynna refuses, but Lella insists on helping because it is her job.

Allynna felt shy because it was the first time someone had seen her nearly naked body other than her mother. Because she didn't have much time, so she just gave in and stood still while Lella put the uniform on her.

After making sure her clothes were neat, she took her bag from the table, but Lella had already picked it up before she touched the bag.

"After you, my lady—" Lella said, allowing Allynna to walk first.

Allynna could only smile. This little girl is so handy and takes good care of her so well that she is starting to like her. 

Leon was already waiting for her when Allynna arrived at the dining room. 

"Miss Allynna, if you just stare at me without starting to eat, I can assure you that you won't be able to take your final exam."

Last night, he gave her a breakfast warning at precisely 7 AM, but this girl was 20 minutes late.

"You have 10 minutes left—" Leon's voice sounded calm, but in Allynna's ears, she seemed to hear Leon scolding her.

"Leon, I don't need to take my breakfast. I have to leave now," Allynna wanted to go to school immediately. And right now, she wasn't hungry either.

But, looking at the look in Leon's eyes, it seemed like he was saying — there was no compromise on that matter. You have to have breakfast.

Allynna immediately sat down at her place. She takes her breakfast quickly.

It only took her 5 minutes to finish her breakfast. She immediately stood up. After she said goodbye to Leon, she rushed outside.

As Allynna passed the main door, she heard Leon calling her. She stopped while looking at him.

"Yes, what is it?" Allynna asked Leon, who was now standing before her. But he didn't say anything.

She saw him raise his hand and place his thumb on her forehead. Surprised by his action, she stood in her place and did not dare move a single inch. And, the moment Leon touches her skin, she feels her mind become calm, like a wave of light imparted in her brain.

Allynna stared into his eyes in shock.

"S-Sir Leon, what are you doing to me?"
