Encounter with the Male lead and Second Male lead

Chapter 5

Reina goes straight in the buffet table wherein a lot of delicious food was served. Although there are many delicious food in the Duke's Mansion it's different here in the palace. There are foods that are rare that you can only see in the palace.

"Instead of being bitter of what other say about me I'll just enjoy myself here. Competing for attention to the female lead would only lead me to my demise. So I will just mind my own business here and watch in the side lines as the story unfold. According to the novel, this is one of the significant event between the male lead and the female lead together with the second male lead. I will not interfere on their affairs for my own safety" while she was planning on what she is going to do, she wasn't aware of the attention she had just attained.

"Oh! Hello there Lady", a man came from nowhere greeted her.

Reina almost choke on the food she is eating when she heard it.

"I'm sorry to startle you. Here drink this" the man gave her a fruit juice.

After she drink the water "Thank you…." She almost choke again when she saw the man in front of her.

He is the most beautiful man she had ever seen as of now, although her brother Richard and his father the Duke are all beautiful and even his knight Sir Alabaster is also good looking. This man's beauty can't be compared to any of them. The man has Silver long hair and sparkling blue eyes. Seductive looking face and a well-built body. A man oozing with sexiness. The only man who possessed that kind of beauty is the male lead in this novel, Hellery Ecclaire. She feels her nose almost bleed to his attractiveness. "Bro, I will give you five star for your sexiness" she almost felt herself drooling. "What a delicious looking man".

"Hello there my lady" he took her hands and kiss it.

Reina almost past out with what he did.

"Ermmm…. Hello there your highness" she greeted him anxiously.

"So, you know me hugh!" he said with amusement in his eyes.

Because of anxiousness Reina wasn't aware of the cookie crumbs on her mouth. She looks like a five year old kid eating her favorite food clumsily. She was shocked with the Prince next movement. He wipe left side of her mouth with his bare hands. She blushed uncontrollably "What the…..w-what a-are you doing your highness. Forgive me for facing you messily" she bowed her head and seems like being scalded by his touched.

"Oh! No need to apologize, by the way I will properly introduce myself to you. I am the Seventh Prince, Hellery Ecclaire, son of the current Emperor, Hellsin Ecclaire to one of his concubine named Ellery, a dancer".

"Nice to meet you Seventh Prince, by the way I am the daughter of Duke Ricardo Von Helios and the former Duchess Regina Von Helios, I am their second child Reina Von Helios" she bowed again.

"Can I call you, Reina?" asked the seventh Prince.

"Yes, your highness it's my pleasure" What the heck, why are you bothering me. The female lead is over there, why are you even here?"

"By the way I will be more direct with you, I have a proposition to you" Prince Hellery lean on her "I want you to work with me if it's ok with you meet me at the address I will pass to you later with my assistant but if not then just don't show up!" he said sofly to her ear. The last part carried a threat to her if she refused she knows that something not good is going to happen to her.

"Ok, your highness I will think about that" she respond respectful although deep inside she was in panic. "To hell with your threat, I didn't even bother you why are you bothering me".

The Prince know that she was afraid of him for some unspeakable reason.

"Hello Lady Reina, I'm glad to see you here" said the man behind the seventh Prince.

Reina was shocked again when he saw a man with silver short hair and brown eyes. He has a resemblance to the seventh Prince. He is also dignified looking but she know he was a scum. He was the original body's fiancée, first Prince Helsion Ecclaire, first born son of the current Emperor and the Empress, he is also the crown Prince of the Ecclaire Kingdom.

"See you later my lady" the seveth Prince kissed her hands again.

Reina was stunned she knows the kind of person Prince Hellery is, he is a scheming man. The saying that the more beautiful things are the more they are poisonous is real. In the novel Prince Hellery is actually powerful and influential. He was just betrayed by the female lead and choose his brother Helsion over him, that's why he was captured by the enemy country and become the king's slave. In that place he was being tortured day and night by the Emperor of the said Kingdom.

But compared to Prince Helsion, Prince Hellery is much more pitiful because Prince Hellery is kinder than him. He is more loyal to those who belonged to him unlike Prince Helsion, who just only value his own self.

"Why are you with my brother?" asked Prince Helsion angrily.

Reina's brow twitch because of unmasked irritation.

"Good day! Prince Helsion" Reina greeted the first Prince formally.

"I am asking you, why are you with my brother?"

"Is there any problem with that?" Reina asked curiously.

"You know that you are my fiancée and you still dare talk to another man" Prince Helsion angrily said to Reina.

"Really? But your highness didn't you say that you don't like me? You also said that you want to annul our engagement?" asked Reina as if he was talking about ordinary topic.

Prince Helsion was shocked on her words.

"How come this stupid woman becomes smart now?" Prince Helsion said to himself.
