I Became the Prisoner of the Tyrant
Chapter 23 Marriage request


Leticia was convinced that Alexander was jealous.


" Your Majesty are you jealous?" ask Leticia heartily


" What? jealous? I jealous? you're not wrong?" alexander asked in disbelief


" His Majesty told me not to think of any other man while in front of you, and told me to think of you alone. Isn't that jealous?" ask Leticia plain


" I'm not ! where there are !"


" Just admit that you're jealous when I think of someone else. Because you feel lonely, right? so that's why I should always think of you?" ask Leticia confidently


" A.. WHWHAT? what kind of shit are you talking about?" alexander did not understand


" Look down, I'll always think of you from now on. Your Excellency there is my top priority at the moment" Leticia said with a relaxed smile


" I'm going to focus on you now, because I'm going to turn you into a human being. So get ready for "inner Leticia


" What was that stupid thought in his head? it feels like I want to dissect him "inner Alexander is upset


" I'm going back to the room, so don't worry about who I'm thinking about. Your Majesty knows that I have been bound by a promise with your majesty" said Leticia sure


" Haa.. " Alexander sighed


" I go first your majesty, good night "Leticia smiled kindly.


" It's obvious that she's jealous of me because she's bored. Yeah, he's like a kid whose attention is taken away by another kid. Think of it like "inner Leticia


The woman came out of the king's room. Apparently he was really insensitive to the word jealousy that was meant, that jealousy in the sense of the King had a different meaning to what he thought.


But did the king also realize that he was jealous? is he aware that his possessiveness leads to other feelings? like he didn't..


They both did not realize that they were in their hearts...


" As his was not his sore leg but his brain, he was completely insensitive" murmured Alexander annoyed


Wait, am I really jealous? but why am I jealous? just because he was thinking of another man? it's like I'm not, if I'm jealous, then what does this feeling mean?

Hoaamm..


The sun shone on Leticia's room, its rays through her bedroom window waking the sleeping woman. The woman was shocked as she woke up, the wound on her leg just disappeared.


" Uh? isn't my leg still hurt? why did the wound suddenly disappear? there is no sign either !" mumbling Leticia was shocked


" Maybe it's a miracle, ah come. I have to get ready to go to the kitchen and cook "the girl muttered again.


The woman stood up and saw a bright light coming from the window of her room. Interested in the light, he looked out the window and was stunned to see the backyard filled with sunflowers.


" woah. Since when are there many sunflowers, my feelings.I only planted 3 sunflowers..why so many?" ask Leticia happy


TOK TOK TOK


" Who ?"


" It's my Carol, your honor." replied Carol.


" Come in "


CLAMPS


Carol bowed respectfully and she brought the tray to her room. Leticia and Carol eat together.


" Carol, have you seen the garden in the backyard?" ask Leticia


" No, what's going on in there, Your Majesty?" ask Carol


" Sunflowers are so many, now it's like a garden. And you know what else happened? both my legs suddenly healed and left no scars ! " answe Leticia enthusiastically


" Is that really what you are?" carol asked as she looked at Leticia's feet that had healed as usual, and like they had never been hurt.


" It turns out to be true.it's very strange huh" Carol said in amazement.


" Yes right, I also don't know what happened why it arrived so "Leticia is confused

That morning Alexander was already angry and broke into the furniture on his desk after reading a file that made him emotional.

" Her Majesty the King, please calm yourself !" daniel said he was trying to calm down


" I wish it was a good day, why should there be a letter? the nobles are looking to die apparently ! want to take me down from my position? who them?!! how dare they make this useless request??!!! " Alexander looks angry


" His highness had always refused if any noble had asked her to marry, but this time it was different. They risked and threatened his majesty with his office. What noble can still refuse when it is like this? " the inner Daniel is confused


" Tell me Daniel ! is marriage important? is it really important?!!" ask Alexander


" Sa.I have to answer honestly or lie, your honor?" ask Daniel plain


" of course be honest ! you stupid fool !" said the king who was still angry


" Wedding is important to your majesty. Moreover, the noble is a king, and the king needs a companion, the Queen, to lead the country for the better. " Daniel explained


" If that's what I know, you idiot !"


" Well you know why you still ask?" daniel's mind is upset


" Do I really have to get married to calm them down?" murmured Alexander thought


Married huh? I never thought I would get married someday. Marriage is not important to me. I always close my eyes and ears when those annoying nobles talk about marriage with me. Even though it was a political marriage, I didn't think I would marry and build a family with someone I would call my wife. I never thought about having children like family in general, it's because I have never felt the warmth of family for a long time, besides if I have a family or people I love, that would be my weakness as a king.I have many enemies out there who want my death and destruction.. A wedding? the families? there's no way I can do that...


Should I get married? just because of the request of these nobles and elders in the kingdom of Fostiarus? What is clear is that their request this time cannot be ignored. They're threatening me firmly and this isn't playing..."


" Your Majesty, what should we do? we can't ignore them " said Daniel worriedly


" Right, we can't ignore it. Let's just follow their game. Have a meeting in the hall this afternoon too !" alexander said firmly


" Well, I will announce his glorious "said Daniel obediently


" oh yeah, what's that little cat doing?"


" What do you mean, princess?"


" Yes, who else "


" The princess was in the back garden, as she was pleased with the flowers that the king had grown last night" Daniel said


" Thank God that he's happy "inside Alexander is happy


" It's good, don't tell him I did it" Alexander said coldly


" I understand your majesty" Daniel said with a smile


" His majesty is smiling like that, meaning her mood has already started to improve, isn't it?" daniel's mind is pleased


Alexander intends to go to the park to see Leticia, but a waiter accidentally bumps into her and spills hot soup into her hands.


PRANGS


" Aish !"


" Her Majesty the King, forgive my life" said Jean, kneeling for mercy.


Leticia heard the noise and she approached Alexander and Jean.


" You're looking to die, aren't you?" alexander was angry


" Pardon me, my majesty, I did not intentionally.."


" Woe, I will surely die.Her majesty the king would not like a careless person "inner Jean fear.


" Geez, why isn't he careful? even though I don't like her, for the sake of humanity, I will help her "inner Leticia.


The king was ready to cast his magic to punish Jean who was already trembling in fear of death. In the middle of it, Leticia came and called out to Alexander. So the king returned to his normal mode, and his anger subsided a little.


" What?"


" A.ayo we walk the street "Leticia smiled widely


" This is the first time he's invited me down the street. Why am I feeling happy? " inner Alexander wonder


" I'd like to show you flowers in the back garden. Come on, your majesty !" leticia


" I'll go with you after taking care of this stupid waitress" Alexander said flatly


" No, your majesty ! we should see the flowers right now. Go !" leticia said cooking


" Jean, go.." whispered Leticia to Jean. Jean nodded and felt relieved that she had survived.


" He was very good, and I was always evil to him "the inner Jean felt guilty.


" Well, " replied the King flatly


" Is it good that he wants to help people who have harmed him, or maybe he's stupid?" inner King Alexander was astonished


Alexander followed Leticia and saw the sunflowers that were behind the castle of Fostiarus. Looking beautiful and cool to the eye, Leticia was very happy to see that beauty.


" How? isn't it a good idea to plant sunflowers here?" asked Leticia expecting a good answer from the King


" It's up to "answer Alexander coldly


" Basic has no feelings, he should be able to praise just a little! the cold psychopathic tyrant "inner Leticia cursed the man in front of her. Unknowingly the girl put on a veiled expression in front of the King.


" Don't curse me in your heart, just say it directly in front of me" Alexander said


" I'm not cursing you. And how does your majesty know that I curse the noble in the heart?" ask Leticia


" because you're not good at lying, your expression is always obvious" Alexander replied


" Oh, what's a compliment?" ask Leticia


" Not really, I think you're stupid" Alexander said flatly


" What??!! huuha.. " Leticia clenched her hands in annoyance and growled


" How could he ridicule people so blatantly?!! with her face flat again?!! I want to feel like I hit him with my judo ! but . I have to be patient.. Leticia let's be patient, you have to be nice to her to make this tyrant change.be patient and calm.." Leticia's mind calms itself.


" It was clear from his face that he was cursing at me in his heart. Then why is he quiet?" inner Alexander wonder


The woman was running around among the flowers, Alexander saw her from a distance and smiled faintly. Daniel was pleased to see the expression of the king he had never seen before.


" This will go into history, the noble king smiled today "inner Daniel pleased


" Your highness, the princess is like a prisoner, but she's like she's used to it and thinks of it like her own home" Daniel said


" So do you think he'll be comfortable and not try to run away from me again?" ask Alexander


" It's like the princess is comfortable here." replied Daniel


" Is that what you think?" ask Alexander


" Yes, your majesty" replied Daniel


" Your Majesty, you may not have realized your true feelings. Your hatred for princess Leticia has faded because of another feeling, LOVE.may that love can change you into a better person, may that hatred not hinder your feelings. " daniel is hoping


I don't know why every look at her smile like it makes me calm. Being around you, I feel comfortable. Though you are the son of a man who killed my family, I should not have this comfort when I am with you. Would my family up there be sad to see me feel at ease with a murderous daughter? Surprisingly, why does my hatred seem to diminish because of this comfort. I could've let you go or killed you but I couldn't. Unknowingly, I was protecting you and getting more comfortable around you, I was trying to make you comfortable around me.. What's wrong with me? what's the matter with you, actually? what do you have that can make me crazy like this? and what does this feeling mean?"


" Mister Daniel ! your majesty the king ! come on over here ! here the air was very comfortable "Leticia waved her hand at King Alexander and Daniel, with a cheerful and happy face


" I came the princess .." said Daniel eagerly


Daniel runs to Carol and Leticia who are running in the garden behind the palace. Alexander was ignorant, walking slowly.


Daniel, Carol and Leticia seemed to joke around in a relaxed and happy manner. Seeing that Alexander looked pleased. From a distance the servants also saw the scene, and began to gather more precisely gossip!


" You guys see that? princess Brilla can make the king's majesty obey him." said waiter 1 gossiped.


" Will the princess become the queen of the future?" ask the waiter 2


" Does that make sense? isn't Brilla's daughter the son of the one who killed the king's noble adoptive family?" ask Laura


" Your words are true also Laura, where perhaps the king's majesty will marry the son of his enemy" said the servant 3


" But, seeing his majesty the king was obedient to him. Could it be that the noble king fell in love with her?" ask the waiter 2


" If Brilla's daughter becomes the queen of the future, I don't mind. She was a good woman" Rita said


" Yes right, he always helps us. He is not arrogant, instead he is very humble " said Mira praising


The servants nodded their nods, a sign that they agreed with Mira and Rita's words praising Leticia.


While the servants were gossiping, Mistress Anne approached them.


" What are you guys doing there? come ! there is still a lot of work !" anne was firm


" Well mistress" said the obedient servants


***


The nobles gathered in the royal hall, they were seen chatting before the king came to the hall.


" this time we must stress to the King to get married !"


" Right ! this kingdom must have a successor, otherwise this kingdom will be taken over by the prince Gustaf" said one of the nobles


" Our king was a tyrant, but he succeeded in advancing our country. Let not our country fall into the hands of the prince of Gustaf, otherwise our country will be destroyed "


" Her Majesty the king HAS ARRIVED !!" said one of the guards outside the door of the royal hall


The uproar suddenly turned into silence when King Alexander arrived in the hall. The nobles bowed respectfully to him then sat obediently in their seats.


" Alright, I've heard your complaints about marriage. I can't ignore that request either. But, please tell me the obvious reason why I should get married?" asked Alexander sharply


" I represent all the ministers and nobles who are here. Would you say a strong reason why your highness should marry? this is because.the first of these is the obligation, the necessity of a leader of a country who must have an escort, secondly, this is for the sake of the successor of the kingdom of Fostiarus, thirdly, this is the main reason.. we do not want this kingdom to fall into the hands of the Gustaf prince who is currently planning a rebellion. Prince Gustaf made it a noble excuse to have no successor, to overthrow the noble power" Marquez Randell explained.


" Why do I remember my stupid uncle now? he always wanted to usurp my throne, the third reason it was the most reasonable reason for me to do marriage. "the inner Alexander thought


" What will your majesty refuse again?" one of the nobles


" This reason is already strong enough, the king's majesty will not refuse "


" why is the king silent?" marquez Randell's inner wonder


" What do you think I should do?" asked Alexander sharply


" Married your majesty of course !" said the nobles kompak


" Who will be my wife?" alexander was confused


" We have prepared the best candidates from this country as well as from abroad, for the future queen" replied Duke Varant


" Alright, I agree "said Alexander flatly


The nobles were astonished by Alexander's words saying that he agreed easily. Though all this time they had difficulty making the king agree about marriage.


" Your Majesty, are you serious?" ask Count Miles


" Do I look like I'm kidding? should I take my word back?" asked Alexander cynically


" No, your majesty, thank you !" the nobles were pleased with Alexander's decision.


" It's just a political marriage, it's nothing. For the sake of this kingdom, I will do anything. I will not let this kingdom fall into the hands of my foolish uncle "inner Alexander


***


The news was heard by Leticia who accidentally heard the servants gossiping about the marriage of the King and King who would look for a candidate for the queen.


" His Majesty will the king marry?" muttered Leticia


" why am I not happy? inner Leticia
