First Fourteen

The imperial knights are divided into two main groups . One is the white knights squad and the other is the black knight squad . The white knights are directly connected to the temple and some of them are even related to the temple and the Pope . While the black knights are solely for the imperial family to manage . The knight examination is also different for two squad .

Derek was already chosen by the princess so he didn't join either squad . But the second male lead Sir Millar is the captain of the black knights .

The training grounds are also different . I usually need not to go to the training areas . But I have to take a look at the second male lead though . I watched from the bushes though .

"Princess?"

"Whoa you scared me Derek."

"What are you doing there princess?"

"Shh.. I am watching."

"You could from the grounds though . Should I inform the captain."

"No no don't . I.. I wanted to watch from far."

"Why?"

"Well you know none of the knights like me enough to welcome me right."

Derek showed a mix expression .

I waited there until lunch but I didn't see Sir Millar once in training . Maybe he is on an errand . Well bad luck today I guess .

After I returned in my room a servant from the prince's palace told me that Mathew wanted to meet me .

Well it's very rude to ask a royal to go meet them unless you are emperor or empress . But I suppose he is sick again so he can't come .

When I reached Mat was already waiting for me in his room with a table full of snacks .

"How are you feeling today Mat?"

"I'm fine sis . Actually I wanted to apologise to you."

"Why apologise?"

"Well at the ball I was really excited to see father so I left early that day , hope you didn't mind me leaving you alone like that sis."

Well well looks like he is also a royal blood huh! I thought wrong if him .

"Not at all . I'm sure you were sick so you wanted to rest . And besides Derek was accompanying me so I wasn't alone though."

"O..oh I see . Did you enjoy the party then ?"

"Well I organized it so it was rather boring."

He smiled brightly just like before , but now I can see the awkwardness in that smile and the feeling of unsatisfied soul .

Guess I am adapting well to this world then .
