MY BELOVED KNIGHT'S
TRUST YOU COMPLETELY
Tira who was initially still looking at the digital key of his apartment immediately turned to look at Ernest who never reached out to him.
"Ernest... Come on. Where's your hand?" Tira again asked Ernest to give his hand to him after seeing Ernest remain silent not moving his hand.
In fact, Tira could have pulled Ernest's hand and registered his handprints onto the digital key, but Tira who since childhood was strictly educated as a princess with all the manners and manners that she had to obey, made her unwilling to be so disrespectful.
"Eh. but Princess...." With an awkward attitude Ernest said slowly.
The handsome man did not not not not know the intent of Tira who asked him to give his hand, that is to register his fingerprints so that in the future he has access to be able to enter the apartment Tira whenever he wants without having Tira opening the door for him.
But Ernest, who knew how to live in a country with an absolute monarchy, knew with certainty that his status differences with Tira could cause him to be considered a presumptuous person if he simply complied with the request Tira, moreover, they were men and women, not fellow men or women.
"Why Ernest? I'm gonna register your handprints. Is there a problem with that?" Tira asked in a relaxed manner, as if it was no big deal for the two of them, whereas for Ernest, with Tira asking him to do that, meaning Tira indirectly gave up life completely to Ernest.
And of course, it made Ernest's chest start to beat fast, thinking of the things he knew he should actually avoid.
"That's not so Princess..is it a wise decision? Me and the others were always ready within twenty-four hours in the next apartment. We always stand guard alternately and ready whenever the Princess needs and calls us. It would be too much if a bodyguard like me could have access to the Princess' apartment." Ernest replied to Tira's question with another question.
"Why about that? It should be that from the beginning as my personal bodyguard, you can also enter my apartment. Have you not been able to enter Alvero's room even though you have to ask permission first? Since adolescence you also often sleep in the room brother Alvero accompanied him as his personal bodyguard." The next question from Tira made Ernest speechless while holding his breath.
Jeez Princess.... Of course that's a very different thing to the case today. How to explain to Princess Tira that being the personal bodyguard of noble Alvero is certainly far different from being the personal bodyguard of princess Tira. Gender alone is clearly different. Of course it would never be a problem if I was in the room of the noble Alvero the entire time if necessary, even accompanying and guarding him while sleeping before his majesty married the consort Deanda. Ever since they married, it may be said that I have hardly ever entered the noble room of Alvero alone, except when it comes to concealing the glorious reality of Alveereo and the consort Deanda who was perplexing and secretly left the palace.
Ernest said inwardly in a clumsy manner, making Tira raise one end of her eyebrows with a face full of question marks.
"But Princess...."
"There's no buts. What if the intruder suddenly told a hit man or a criminal to kidnap me, enter through the window of my apartment. Are you willing to accept punishment from my brother Alvero and my papa because you can't protect me well?" Tira's words made Ernest's eyes widen slightly in shock.
"If you can't get in through the front door of my apartment? Do you want to come late and regret your whole life?”
“Of course not Princess...” Ernest immediately responded to Tira's words.
“For me, the safety and security of the Princess is the number one that I must guard and protect even with my life.” Ernest's words made Tira slightly averted her eyes because she was embarrassed and happy with Ernest Baruean's words which placed her as the number one person for Ernest at this time.
“Then, there is no reason for you to refuse my order at this time.” With a slight look down to avoid Ernest's gaze, Tira said as she finally pulled Ernest's hand, and actually registered him as one of the owners of the entrance into her apartment.
The movement of Tira's hand which not only touched a glance, but held his hand, inevitably made Ernest's chest more and more jump in there, even a cold sweat dripped on his forehead.
Facing a great enemy like Eliana or the others, would not make an Ernest break out in cold sweat and a great thumping chest, but at this moment, it was, Ernest had to completely die a flea with what Tira did to him.
Tira's actions really made him not wart and his chest felt tight because of happiness, shame, flowers mingled into one, without him being able to control.
“It's done. From now on you can go straight into my apartment without having me open the door for you.” Tira said with a satisfied smile after successfully registering Ernest's fingerprint in his digital key security system, unknowingly, Ernest's face appeared flushed and more than once tried to swallow his own saliva with great difficulty.
“Come Ernest. Now try to open the door with your fingerprint.” Without looking at Ernest who was still busy calming down the pounding on his chest, Tira said as she looked towards the digital key of his apartment door waiting for Ernest to make his request just now, so inevitably, she said, Ernest reached out his hand and tried to open the door with his fingerprints.
