Chapter 6: The three bodyguards and tradition.

"I'll only serve, Aonaran." I look at him, amused.

But when he saw me looking at him, he suddenly smirk smugly. That's when I knew that he was not serious at all!

This guy can never be trusted!  

I snorted and smirk at him. "Let's see how long you'll last." My brother claps in happiness and he loots at Domenicus full of arrogance.

"Sure."

Me and my brother talk some things while Domenicus is just standing at the corner, guarding the door.

It's been a while since he came home so we really have a lot to catch up on. But because he is tired I told him to talk with me tomorrow and rest for now.

So, the night ended just like that and when I woke up, I called Butler Warren to help me get in the bathroom and told him to get Riana to help me get dressed.

"Young Miss." Riana greeted me as soon as she entered my wardrobe.

I nodded.

"I heard what happened last night. I hope you'd be more careful in the future." I just sat there in my bathrobe while looking at her picking clothes I should wear.

She picked a simple white dress under the knee and white doll shoes.

"From now on, you should refrain wearing dark colors it only makes you look too strong and independent. You need to look approachable and delicate, in this way maybe the Prince would not be wary of you anymore and revealed himself." I pouted as she help me put my dress on.

"But old Riana, why not marry the Princess? Why it should be me? I don't have any royal blood." I've been willing to ask that question since last night but I know I should not with a lot of untrusted people around us.

"Just listen to your father because I don't know either." I nodded and we went out from my wardrobe and went to my vanity table.

She help me do my make-up and designed my hair before she called Butler Warren.

Butler Warren brought a wheelchair and help me sit there. He is pushing the wheelchair when he leaned and whispered "I heard that your three bodyguards are here already." I nodded.

The door of my room opened and I was greeted with a man in casual wear, a black t-shirt with his black rip jeans and black sneakers. At just first glance, I knew it was branded no matter how simple it looks!

"Good morning, Young Miss." My lips parted. He actually called me Young Miss!

I look at him, shocked but I recovered quickly and nodded. I think my cheeks turned red as I started to feel hot.

Ok.

I did not expect that!

Our mansion has four levels. So, every floor has an elevator. The elevator is pretty far from my room, so it takes a minute before we got there.

"Old Riana, can I eat a lot of desserts today? Consider it as my cheat day! I can't practice anyway, right? It's fine, right?" I look at him with my pleading eyes, I refrain from pouting because Domenicus is around.

It's shameful to do that.

Old Riana stared at me. So, I clasped my hands together, look at her with my shining, expectant eyes and smile expectantly.

She looks away and sighed heavily. "Fine."

Butler Warren and I cheered together and clap our hands.

"Thank you, Old Riana! You're the best in the world!" Butler Warren stop in his tracks and went in front of me.

"Young Miss, how about me?" I blink rapidly then smiled wickedly.

"Are you jealous, Butler Warren?" I teased him.

"No, Young Miss! What are you talking about? Me? Jealous? That's impossible!" He said in a defensive tone.

I chuckled softly and nodded.

"Old Warren, how dare act like that in front of Young Miss? How ridiculous!" Old Riana scolded him and slap his shoulder.

He look at her in shock and snorted.

"It's ok. Let's go, they are waiting for us."

Butler Warren pushes the wheelchair again and proceeds to the elevator. Domenicus stayed silent the whole time that gave us both a peaceful morning.

When we got there, I greeted my father and brother by kissing them on their cheeks. I sat on the right side of my brother since he is seating on the left side of my father.

"Where're the other three bodyguards?" I ask as I sat down on my chair.

My father looks at his secretary. Mark nodded at my father before gesturing to the bodyguard at the door.

They opened the door and to my shock, three familiar faces appeared, smiling like an idiot.

I look at my father accusing. "Father, are you making fun of me? Are you telling me that one of them is the prince? Ridiculous!" I shouted angrily and grab my glass and throw it on the wall.

All the maids shrink in fear.

My brother look at me worried and grab my hand to calm me down.

But I can't.

My father shook his head.

"Princess, listen it is not like that, ok?" Butler Warren gestured the maids to leave the dining room.

I snorted.

"Butler Warren, I'm full! Let's go!" I shouted angrily and help myself to sit in my wheelchair.

As Butler Warren was about to push the wheelchair, soft, warm hands grab my hands stopping us from moving.

My hands grip tightly on the wheelchair and push his hands away.

"Domenicus, don't forget your status in this house! You are just a bodyguard and you don't have the right to touch me! If you don't get that then you can quit." I coldly said and look all of them angrily.

Butler Warren bowed down before pushing me towards the elevator.

"Young Miss, calm down. Master must have a reason." Butler Warren tried to comfort me but I knew myself that I can't.

"I could not just understand why he does he need to lie for that Prince! I could understand that but the fact that he invited all the guys who hurt me before to guard me is just a ridiculous thing!" I coldly said as my grip became tighter.

I feel so betrayed right now!

My father has always been spoiling and supporting me so I could not believe that he brings closer the people who hurt me in the past.

"Young Miss, we don't know what's happening for now. Don't worry, I'll investigate things and try to get to the bottom of this." Butler Warren tried to coax so I did not make it hard for him.

I stared at the butterfly barrette on my vanity table. I started to analyze things as Butler Warren grab my barrette and put it in my hair.

"I'll just grab you some food, Young Miss." He said and left me there while thinking.

Could it be that it was all a lie? There's no prince at all! Could it be that this is one of the tests that every princess in the royal family needs to undergo?

There's a tradition in our family that every Princesses should undergo some challenges too and be trained like a Prince so that if something happened to the firstborn or Prince the Princess can take over.

But if this is the test... it is too easy and simple.

As far from what I heard it was very hard and very dangerous that a lot of the Princesses gave up before.

Maybe it is not as simple as I think.
