“Don’t worry about , Your Highness. I will be...” I said before a loud sound disturbed the peaceful atmosphere around us.
What was that just now?
I could tell that the prince was as surprised as I was at the sudden sound that ca from above us. The sharp sound of glass breaking echoed loudly from above us. My eyes instantly followed the direction of the sound as I tilted my face upwards to see what was going on.
“Shit...” Prince Florian muttered darkly from close to .
I gasped as my mouth dropped wide open when a part of the glass ceiling above us shattered and then a blurry movent of sothing falling down caused the water in the large pool to splash loudly at the impact of its entrance.
“What...” I murmured in complete disbelief.
The blurry mix of red, white, and gold just now that I saw falling in through the ceiling turned out to be a man. Slowly, I watched as the figure stood up from the water. What appeared to be his full-rank uniform of white, red, and gold was completely drenched along with his blond hair. His blue eyes were a nacing stare as they seed to glower at Prince Florian and .
He didn’t just...enter through the ceiling now...did he?
We’re going to be killed...
“Oh, good evening to you, Leo...” Prince Florian said with an amused chuckle.
His words and his attitude are going to get us both killed...
“Florian!” Prince Leonard yelled so loudly that it felt like he had just roared.
“Why are you so mad? I should be the moody one. You just literally jumped in to disturb my bath with Mila...” Prince Florian complained as he pushed roughly behind him.
Prince Florian is completely naked, and Prince Leonard is completely furious. That was the only thought that ran through my head as I stood behind a very-naked Prince Florian.
“Get away from her!” Prince Florian yelled loudly.
The authoritative command of his voice echoed as it bounced off the walls of the bathhouse. Prince Florian didn’t seem bothered by his brother’s rage at all. It was surprising how calm he was as Prince Leonard waded through the water toward us.
“Prince Leonard...” I murmured his na as fear gripped .
Please, don’t let this turn into a fight. Although I wished for him to co and rescue , I didn’t think that things would turn out like this. Plus, Prince Florian had already agreed to let go and had stopped all his playful teasing.
“Get out of the water now!” Prince Leonard shouted at .
“Y-Yes...” I mumbled as I backed away from Prince Florian towards the edge of the pool.
Suddenly, there was a slamming sound from behind . I whirled around to see that soone had opened the door with a loud bang. The door was unlocked, and I was shocked once again to see the identity of the person who had proudly and calmly stridden inside the bathhouse.
“Let help you...” Prince Darius said in a gentle voice as he quickly ca to the side of the pool.
His grey eyes were calm and the gentle smile that he offered made feel that everything was going to be just fine. He reached out a hand towards to offer assistance in getting out of the pool. Hesitantly, I placed my hand into his and let him help lift out of the pool.
“Can you stand? It’s fine now. I’m sure you were so scared. Florian can be an sotis, but he usually doesn’t an any real harm...” Prince Darius said as he supported up on my feet.
“Right...” I murmured.
I doubted his words because I felt like Prince Florian was an and he does an real harm. Although, he was kind enough to back away when I felt sick...
“I told you to wait until I got the keys to the front door. Why won’t you listen?” Prince Darius yelled toward Prince Leonard.
The two brothers were still staring at each other as if they were about to tear out each other’s throats in the bath. Prince Darius, who seed to be the most well-composed out of all of them, stood by my side and shook his head.
“You should co with , Mila. Let’s leave those two to sort out their issues...” Prince Darius suggested.
I knew that he might be right; however, I couldn’t stop myself from glancing over at Prince Leonard. He didn’t et my gaze and his attention and anger were purely directed at Prince Florian.
“Darius! Why didn’t you stop him? Now there are shards of glass everywhere in the water!” Prince Florian complained loudly with his back still turned towards us.
“I tried...” Prince Darius replied without much care.
“You both know that I use this bath most often. Why did you have to ruin it?!” Prince Florian continued complaining.
“I honestly don’t think you should be worried about that right now...” Prince Darius muttered coldly.
“Leo, I don’t know why you’re so angry when you don’t have the right to be,” Prince Florian said casually.
I couldn’t move from where I stood. My attention was wholly captivated by the two brothers as they conversed with each other. The atmosphere was tense, and I was scared that violence could break out. Prince Darius waited next to my side as he also looked on at his brothers’ quarrel.
“Stay away from her, Florian...” Prince Leonard ordered coldly.
“Rules are rules. As long as she isn’t yours, she is just a maid, and I can play with her whenever and wherever I want. Isn’t that right, Darius?” Prince Florian spoke up loudly and confidently.
Rules. What rules?
“Florian is right. Leonard, Florian has not broken any rules. I’m going to take Mila back first...” Darius said solemnly.
“I told you so. I didn’t do anything wrong. She’s not yours and she doesn’t even have your scent on her...” Prince Florian said as he lifted his hands up and shrugged carelessly.
The two brothers continued staring at each other and I had no idea what they managed to communicate to one another through that pressure-filled silence.
