Fiancée

"I'm Forik Aetos, your grandfather"(Forik)

My grandfather introduced himself. He's a tall slender man with grey hair and brown eyes. You could feel a formal aura exuding from him.

"You're such a handsome man, just like your father. I'm Vera Aetos, you can call me MayMay Vera"(Vera)

My apparently grandmother walked to me and caressed my cheek as if reminiscing my old man. Looking at her it seems like she's an elegant and warmth old lady with black hair and green eyes but for some reason the aura coming from her is cold and merciless.

"I'm Alef Aetos, a pleasure tu meet you"(Alef)

"Don't need to be so formal dear, after all we are family"(Vera)

When my grandmother said the word family mom made a complicated expression.

"Umm, MayMay Vera, who's her?"(Alef)

"How rude of me, I forgot to introduce you to your fiancée, Daniela Coldrake"(Vera)

"Whaaaaaaat!?"(Jessica, Master, Alef)

Grandmother just said the most crazy thing I have heard in a while as she pointed at the brown haired girl with azure eyes. I must be unconscious in the forest, yeah, that's it. There's no way this could happen, this is just a dream. Now, I just have to wait until master awakes me.

"Oh god, now he's trying to escape reality"(master)

Master facepalmed before punching me in the stomach.

"Better?"(master)

"Yeah, thank you. I really needed that"(Alef)

"No problem"(master)

Suddenly, Rosa entered the living room running while wearing a worried expression.

"Is something wrong!?"(Rosa)

"It's nothing dear Rosa. Go back to the lab, please"(Jessica)

"Um, okay"(Rosa)

After Rosa walked out of the room, mom turned at my grandparents and glared at them.

"You most have gone senile if you think I'll allow you to drag my sweetheart into the mess that is noble society"(Jessica)

Mom yelled at them furiously. I have never seen her so enraged, it looks like she's going to kill someone at any moment.

"Oh please Jessica, obviously you don't have a saying in all this. This is a matter of Aetos family"(Vera)

"He's my son, not your puppet"(Jessica)

While mom and my grandparents were arguing, I turned around to ask for help to my master only to see that she have already escaped.

Just my luck, well I suppose I'll get comfy, I should serve me some tea. Mmm, delicious. I don't think they'll finished some time soon. Oh, I think this tea will go great with these cookies.

Uff, that was delicious. Oh, I think the discussion is close to ending.

"This is why Orlando run away from home. You're so rigid that you asphyxiate everyone"(Jessica)

"We just see for the interests of Alef!!"(Vera)

"I don't care, you can go back from where you came"(Jessica)

"I'm sorry Jessica, but we won't back down. After all, Alef is Aetos family heir"(Forik)

"Wait, did something happen to Vania?"(Jessica)

"Don't worry, nothing happened to her. She's marrying into the royal family, that's why the only heir of Aetos family is Alef.

And, this is for Alef to decide, Jessica. By the way Alef, once you say yes, we'll go back to the Aetos' state. There you'll train under the best knights from the kingdom."(Forik)

And that is how my grandfather tried to bribe me.

"Objection!!!"(master)

Master shout while munching a cookie.

"When did you get back?"(Alef)

"I was hungry and you have cookies, so"(master)

"And who may you be?"(Forik)

"I'm the most beautiful woman in the world, Freya is my name and bullying Alef is my game!"(master)

Master introduced herself while saying a cheeky phrase and making a weird pose. Everybody aside for me was standing still with their mouths opened. I think I developed resistance to master's antics, which is a bad thing.

"I thought you would keep the collected persona in front of them"(Alef)

"It's a pain acting like that. It's better if they know how I am from the first meeting"(master)

"Cough. And Miss Freya, what right you have to object to Alef's decision, if I may know?"(Forik)

"Every right, of course. I'm his master, and just so you know I'm not handing my cute little apprentice to anyone"(master)

"Hohoho. I don't remind asking for your opinion, Miss Freya"(Forik)

"Hehehe. That was an statement, not an opinion, old man"(master)

Suddenly, my mom clapped her hands with a bright smile.

"How about this Forik. Let's make Alef and Daniela have a match. If my sweetheart wins, he'll stay with me until he finishes his training, on the other hand if Daniela wins he'll go with you"(Jessica)

"On what basis you suggest this?"(Forik)

"Well, If Alef's fiancée comes from a knight family like Aetos family, she had to have the bests instructors. So, if my sweetheart wins, it'll prove that Miss Freya is a better instructor than those that you could pay"(Jessica)

"We accept, there's no way that someone like Miss Freya is better than a knight from the capital"(Vera)

And... They fall right into mom's trap. That's why mom is so scary.

Of course, now everyone's gazes where directed to the girl that was drinking tea trying her best to be invisible.
