Chapter 2
“Rinaldo! Can you please listen to me!?”
After everything was done, it was already evening, when I returned to the royal palace, where I immediately visited Rinaldo after the inspection.
I rushed into Rinaldo’s boudoir and started scolding him, as he sits on his knees uncomfortably.
This guy didn‘t participate in his duties, which has lead me to experience that strange atmosphere with His Highness Lauro!
By the way, when I was in the carriage on my way back the palace, his Highness was just looking at me without talking and I couln‘t bear it, he was acting suspicious.
Maybe it was just a oddity, so it‘s okay?
“Rinaldo, how many times have you skipped it? Is there no good public affairs activity for you? Men, everyone was preparing for the visit!”
“I’m sorry, but I knew my older brother would go in mystead?”
“That’s not the problem! Do I have to pull your butt again!?”
When I leaned over to Rinaldo, who was sitting next to the sofa, he was holding his butt protectively.
I did that once long ago and he’s wary because I really held my words.
Even though he is in a miserable pose, his face is still good.
Don’t get angry…
Everyone forgives him, when he lowers his eyebrows, along with that face, while he apologizing with a “I’m sorry”.
I’m knocked down!
“Where did you go today?”
While sighing, I look at him with the aura, that I have not forgiven him yet.
“Well, Marian came to invite me to play in a park in the suburbs.”
My eyebrows jerk.
I wish the boat had sunk.
“I invited you before Marian’s invitation, did you think about that?”
“But it seemed more fun to go boating.”
――I had a big smile on my face.
I really want to hit it.
I want to hit him to goo.
I held my right hand (which is already a clenched fist), trying to reign in my rampage, but Rinaldo continues to talk fearlessly.
“Well, I had a very good feeling with Marian today, but can I try with you Esther?”
“What?”
I was pushed down on the sofa the moment I thought he was replying to me like a sharp knife.
Above me, you can see the familiar beauty laughing at me.
“What do you mean?”
“Eh? But Esther will become my wife? So then, I’d like to try it with Esther.”
…….
My thoughts cannot catch up.
Ah, what was that.
Today, Rinaldo had made a mess with a girl named Marian (probably a Countess daughter).
So he wants to see how I am, as we are getting married soon.
Such a thing?!
And I’m wondering if he is old enough… I made a mistake.
Rinaldo doesn’t really love me.
Well, I’ve liked him since I was a kid, but it wasn’t romantic.
I still don’t want “him”.
“Please stop.”
I said it with the lowest possible voice.
I lived thinking that I would marry Rinaldo like Esther in the novel.
But I don’t want to follow the same route as the novel.
If I lived as a serious princess, and eventually became the queen, Rinaldo would remain to be a shameful son of foolishness.
I believe that His Highness Lauro, as a King, would be happier without any remorse.
I’m still a stupid child, that I kept thinking about this.
How does Rinaldo think about me?
The novel Esther will accept this situation.
A beautiful doll that is easily washed away and doesn’t think about anything.
But “I” am different!
I’m not that Esther!
Nobody can do it.
You have to be with someone you love and who loves me…
“I” can forgive such things…that black hair…
And that person isn’t exactly like in the novel either.
He’s a honest person who thinks about the country.
I, that person and Rinaldo are now living in this world.
Ah.
It comes to my mind clearly and makes me want to laugh.
I thought I shouldn’t get involved with him in that way.
I’m no longer not aware of it.
When he does his duty in a sincere manner, he recognizes his mistakes, shows his gratitude profundly and above all, he properly confronts me.
“Isn’t it okay?”
“It’s no good. I’ll kick you, into the key point.”
Rinaldo flew away.
Because I’m trained in self-defense, I have acquired some physical skills.
The teacher once praised me for my good kicks.
Fortunately, Rinaldo did not seem to try in forcing me any further.
“It feels good, though.”
“Rinaldo, let’s not meet until the wedding.”
I don’t feel like doing that, but I declared to postpone it.
“Good.”
Rinaldo agrees lightly.
I was thinking about the time when I left the room and returned to my house.
“So, I have to do it at the wedding again…”
I can’t shake my marriage with Rinaldo anymore.
There are political issues, I’ve been educated as a candidate for the Crown Princess and I know I’m cheeky, but I feel that I am responsible for the people.
Which is also rewarding.
But above everything else, I can’t confess my feelings to that person anymore.
What would he say?
Even if he accepts my wishes, we have no future.
It’s an unlikely event to happen.
In the novel, there was the existence of the evil princess Esther and the country was in a terrible situation, so the rebels were generally accepted favorably.
But now there is no such element.
If that happens, I don’t even know if he will succeed in a rebellion now.
It is unacceptable to succeed with the stigmatization as a man who eliminated his brother and robbed the throne, let alone the currently nonexisting failure of the country.
As I was preparing for the wedding, I could only reach one conclusion.
Let’s seal ul love and marry Rinaldo. I don’t hate Rinaldo after all.
As a younger brother who takes care of me (he is younger than me), I can do well as a family.
I’m sorry, but I can’t live up to expectations of the old man.
Let’s try to educate the child born within a side room.
While staying as close as possible to that person.
I’ve come so far, so I’m sure I can do it.
I worked hard to seal up my feelings and then welcomed the wedding day.
While I was keeping doing a deep sigh, that was not at all like a bride, the big door opened from both sides.
On the left and right are the noble people of the high rank, as the king and groom are waiting for me to walk to the end of the red carpet.
I walked step by step towards a groom, who was dressed like me.
The wedding costume is all white.
Both men and women wear full hooded cloaks from top to bottom to hide their faces.
After signing the marriage pledge, they take off their cloaks as they reincarnated anew as husband and wife.
My name…I wrote it…
I signed my name down in a smooth position and faced the groom.
From now on, let’s take off the cloak and exchange the kiss of oath at the end.
Rinaldo and Kiss…
It’s light so don’t worry about it.
When I raised my face to reach for the clasp of the cloak, I noticed something strange.
The angle when looking up at the face is… subtly different…
Rinaldo, did you grow taller during this short time?
My cloak was removed when I finished removing his, while struggling with the restricted movements of wearing gloves.
“……Lie……”
It was His Highness Lauro who was smiling in front of me, I’m the one who was surprised.
What?
Is it an illusion, that my desire shows?
No, Rinaldo does not have such a sharp face.
Rinaldo has brown hair, but the person in front of me has black hair.
Perhaps with special make-up and hair dye?
Somehow my love for him was discovered and it was a bit of a side show.
Rinaldo loves to have fun, so he’s likely to ride along with it, if suggested.
No no no no.
Is there someone who makes such a suggestion?
It’s a national event!?
If you do something like this for a wedding ceremony or a ceremony to nominate a successor to the throne, you will be eradicated until the last generation.
I was able to restore my expression perfectly as a candidate for the Crown Prince, so after I was surprised, I immediately returned the expression to a mysterious one, but I was in a big panic in my heart and my mind is in blur and the tsukkomi did not stop.
“Kiss, to seal the oath.”
His Majesty told me solemnly.
I was able to restore my facial expressions, but my body did not react well.
Their hands, who were still facing each other as she stiffened, made him gently take hers and pulled her toward him.
When he covers my cheek with his other hand, a beautiful face approaches.
“I caught you.”
“What?”
His Highness Lauro’s lips overlapped my lips hindering my foolish voice.
The tongue intrudes into the mouth, which was opened as the words were spoken immediately.
“Hmm?”
I was surprised to let go of his body, but the hand of his Highness, who had taken my hand before I knew it, was swung firmly around my waist, while the other one also moved from the cheek to the back of the head and I could not escape at all.
Although I tried to turn it back with my tongue alone, I was entangled by the opposite, sometimes sucked and after being surprised and withdrawn, I was completely eaten up in my mouth.
This is not a kiss of oath!
It seems that I cannot escape his at the back of my cheek.
Every time his tongue crawls there, my body seems to tremble.
It’s embarrassing, but I’m so comfortable, that I can’t breathe and I can’t stand up with the lack of oxygen.
“Really, this is the end of the marriage. From now on, we will move to the appointment of the throne.”
This kiss wouldn’t have ended without His Majesty’s call.
Because he must have heard it.
The Prince, who was finally letting me free, has left flirting with a small tongue flick as he no longer continues disturbing me.
After this, the ceremony was held without fail, as His Highness Lauro became the Crown Prince and I became the Crown Princess.
Yeah.
During the ceremony, there was no problem except that your Highness was in close contact with me!
“Please explain, from one to a thousand, so that I can be dumbfounded enough to understand what just happened.”
Facing each other on the bed, I sat down besides His Highness Lauro.
I couldn’t wait to hear the details at the feast after the ceremony.
I greeted them with a smile on the face, as the princes and the princesses who visited us one after another.
Actually, I just wanted to grab and squeeze the lapel of His Highness, Lauro, who was receiving the same greetings next door.
On the way, Rinaldo also came to say hello, so I sneak in and asked what it was.
The answer was…
“Uh… I don’t know it too well. But for the time being, my brother will be the crown prince, isn’t it better for the country? I can’t do that.”
He gave me some useless words.
I wanted to hit him.
Thus, in the middle of the banquet, we, the leading characters, exited, prepared for sleep and were now in the couple’s bedroom like this.
“One to one thousand is very detailed.”
His Majesty Lauro picks up a little of my damp hair again and smiles.
I want to get angry at him.
And I am angry at myself, who is a little lost in that glossy gesture of his.
Because, I’m a clown too.
I was conscious of my love, but I desperately sealed it and he decided to open it as if I had a heartbreaking decision to do as a princess of Rinaldo.
I want to shout.
Dakoya!
I’m angry.
You should be angry.
Love and this are different issues.
“You were the “perfect princess candidate”.
“I agree.”
“Then I can only be a prince to marry you.”
“Yes?”
”I can’t do it otherwise, isn’t that easy?
That’s right, His Highness says.
Being confused, I ask questions a lot.
“Well, but there’s a political problem…I know that Her Highness the Queen, her son Rinaldo, couldn’t succeed to the throne…”
“Everything that has been solved.”
……What a smile.
It’s black.
I’m scared.
Why do you emphasize “everything”?
How did you solve “everything”?
I’m so scared I can’t listen.
“Now…”
I had a cramped face and I was pushed down to the bed.
“What?”
The beautiful face is right above me.
Both wrists are also restrained and I cannot move with a click.
“Wait a minute, please wait. The explanation has not yet been completed. You have not explained it yet. It is about one to three.”
I’m afraid to ask how he solved it, but there are a lot of things that I have to ask about that, the thoughts of the Queen and what kind of position Rinaldo will be in the future.
His Majesty Lauro frowned a little, sharpened his eyes and stared at me.
After all… scary.
“The remaining 997 shall be explained to the body with the body.”
“No, that…”
“The bottom line is that you will never miss him.”
I felt that the eyes of His Highness, Lauro, shone fiercely.
