Chapter 5: I'll only serve, Aonaran
"Who is it?" I asked but no one replies.
Did someone break the system in our mansion? How could the guards did not notice any strange person?
"Butler Warren?" I asked but no one answered instead, it knocked on my door again.
Ok, that's it!
I stood up and grab my bat under my bed. I always have things like this hidden in my room for protection.
I slowly walk towards the door with the bat in my hand, ready to swing it to whoever it is.
I'm gripping the bat so tightly, I've been practicing fencing with my brother. I'm an expert on it! I don't have to worry that I can't defend myself. I will be too shameful to the royal family and my ancestors!
But all my courage was gone when another knock happened on my door. But this is louder and scary. It is like it's hurrying me to open the door.
I was so stunned and scared to open the door. I just stared at it waiting for the person on a ghost or whatever it is to open the door!
I wanted to cry and ask for help but I knew I can't! I need to save my face.
Again, another impatient knock came, and as time passed by it became louder and louder, scarier and scarier. Different scary scenarios keep appearing on my mind that made me more scared.
Tears start to form at the corner of my eyes.
Where are the bodyguards? The maids?
Why did Butler Warren leave me here alone?
Fuck.
This time, I really can't stop my tears and flowed down my cheeks. I was shaking so hard while staring at the door being banged loudly.
And to my horror, the bat fell and it landed on my feet. I scream that I think it reached the other side of the mansion.
The door opened harshly and because only the lampshade is open, I did not recognize the tall figure who is approaching me, thinking it was the scary guy who is knocking at my door.
Out of fear, I shouted again.
"Butler Warren! Help!" I'm crying so hard when a warm embrace envelops me.
The familiar smell of perfume quickly claimed my sense of smell. I felt so relieved and cried in his arms.
He patted my head and calmed me down.
"Why are you crying?" He asked when I calmed down.
I look around and notice that people from our mansion are gathered around. It was so silent but their eyes are full of questioning but it was shifted when we heard heavy and in hurry footsteps.
Seconds later my father and brother are standing in front of me.
Diomenicus let go of me and give space for them. Butler Warren was also inside my room, gesturing the maids to go away.
"What happened, Princess? Why are you crying? Hmm? Tell brother and I'll fix it." My brother said softly while caressing my cheeks.
"N-nothing," I said but I saw them glance at the bat on the floor. "Nightmares," I added.
"Are you sleepwalking again?" I did not answer and look at my father.
"Father, brother, I'm fine you can rest," I said and stood up but I stumbled and flinch in pain.
Luckily, Diomenicus was able to catch me.
I glance at him and murmured "Thanks."
But my brother felt different. "Let go of my sister." He glared at him and look at my father.
"Father, I told you I'll take part in choosing her bodyguards! I don't want to see my sister get hurt again because of stupid reasons." He once again glared at Diomenicus.
"You both are the same! I'm your father, do you guys think I don't know what you are thinking? Huh! Dream on!" My father snorted which made me chuckle.
"Ok, ok, you guys should go and rest. Have a goodnight. Butler Warren, help my father." Butler Warren came closer. So I kissed my father's cheeks and waved goodbye. That's the cue for Butler Warren to help my father and hold my father's arm and guided him.
My Father is not that old but he just came out from the hospital month ago. The doctor said he needs to be careful and maintain his health.
"Brother, don't worry it's just really a nightmare. I'll call you if I need help. Hmm?" He glance at my feet and he suddenly carried me towards my bed.
"Be careful next time, ok? See, you've hurt your foot! No practice until it's healed." I pouted but I instantly changed my expression and nodded when he was staring at me with his dagger eyes.
"But I can still watch you, right?"
"Yes. Wait here, I'll just the medicine kit and let me help you with your feet." He stood up and was about to go out when he saw Domenicus still inside my room.
"You! Come with me!" I winced at what I saw but laugh when Domenicus look at him unbothered and followed him without a question.
My brother did not like it. So, he glared at him again but did not do anything anymore.
I breathe out of relief when they finally left.
Now that I'm calm, things became clear to me that I wished I never did.
That was embarrassing!
I cried because I was so scared! I should not watch horror and drink coffee anymore.
Yes, blame it on the coffee and horror movies.
They are not a perfect combination at all.
And that Domenicus! How dare he scare me like that!
I freaking ask who it is but he did not answer! If only he did then there shouldn't be any trouble like this.
He freaking scared the sh*t out of me!
He must have still remembered that I love watching horror but was scared of it! He purposely did that to scare me!
Heh!
Does he think that only he can play? No! I'm still willing to play with him. Domenicus, I'll never back out in any game that you'll start. I'll make sure that this time, I will win!
You'll regret playing with me, again.
I was planning to ignore you but you started this, of course, I'll fight back.
My brother came back with Domenicus holding a lot of things but his face remain cold and arrogant. It is like he is telling that 'bully me, I don't care.'
It was annoying seeing him like that. I want to tear apart that arrogant face of it. I will rip it apart from that there are no other girls are willing to be with him.
"Let me look at your feet." I lifted it without a thought and I know at this moment, I really fucked up.
Tears instantly formed in corner of my eyes and I bit my lip to hide the pain I feel.
"You! Hayst! You don't even know how to take care of yourself but your father wants you to get married to that unknown prince!" He started complaining as he put a cold compress on my feet.
"And what? He doesn't want us to see his face? Who does he think he is? He must be ugly! Beauty and the beast! Tsk!" I chuckled and patted his cheeks.
"Brother, I will not marry him if he is ugly. Don't worry, I have planned things already. Father can't force me to marry someone I don't love." My brother nodded proudly and glance at Domenicus.
"You did not hear anything! Since you decided to be one of our boys, then you have to follow what I said!" He just stared at my brother blankly.
"I'll only serve, Aonaran."
