Not the Novel World
111. Feast of Party III

The atmosphere inside the hall was gripping, the gloomy aura Seint let out made the feathers on the invited guests shudder in horror. One side that people never wanted to see, if Seint had let out a gloomy aura from within him then it would affect the atmosphere around him.

No wonder the King clan was pinned on Seint. It was believed that any descendant of their Apollonia kingdom's successor would have a kingly aura that would suppress his opponent if he was angry. The aura that Seint had was very strong, for that moment on the battlefield his opponent always felt intimidated just by looking into Seint's eyes.

Since then Seint always stole the view of Lilian and Prince Erik collar. Initially Seint let the two greet each other because it would be rare for them to meet in person. But when Prince Erik openly wanted to approach Lilian, Seint could not just stand still. Moreover, Seint caught the look of dislike that Lilian pointed at Prince Erik making Seint even more unable to not approach the two.

Prince Erik halted his steps and looked towards Seint who was staring intently at him. "Don't misunderstand Prince Seint, I just want to help Princess Lilian."

"On what basis do you want to help him?" Ask Seint flatly.

"There's something in her hair, I just want to help Princess Lilian to clean it up." Prince Erik.

"Don't in your kingdom have a rule if a girl already has a partner then she can't be touched! Especially if she is a Crown Princess. Hitting your hand until it breaks will not be enough to make amends. But since Prince Erik is our guest then I forgive you." Said Seint as he walked pulling Lilian's waist to get close to her.

"I'm sorry Prince Seint for being so presumptuous. Next time I won't be reckless anymore in acting in front of the Crown Princess." Prince Erik said as he glanced at Lilian.

Seint was still staring at Prince Erik with his sharp gaze. "May there be no next time. There's nothing Prince Erik needs to discuss with him." His words then pulled Lilian away.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief after the departure of Seint and Lilian. What an atmosphere they never wanted to see was when Seint was angry. The man will do things beyond reason if in a state of anger.

Princess Meira who had been watching from afar walked up to Prince Erik who still did not let go of his gaze towards Seint and Lilian left.

"If the girl had known you first, the one next to her would be you." Princess Meira.

"What if he was with someone else now? The human heart no one knows when they will turn away ... All women want luxury ... I just need to give him something he doesn't get here." Prince Erik said with a cynical smile.

"I mean Brother? She has the position of Crown Princess of course she will get whatever she wants." Princess Meira was confused.

Prince Erik laughed softly. "Don't you see the dress and everything she's wearing today? Only the crown on his head looks shiny. All women want her whole body to sparkle so that everyone does not take their eyes off her. But look at her appearance earlier, even though she was indeed beautiful but it would be better if she wore something much better." His cynic.

Princess Meira smiled cynically. "I understand Brother ... You'll spoil her with luxury if she's willing to be by your side." Her speech.

Prince Erik smiled sinisterly while fixing Princess Meira's hair. "Not a single woman I met refused my gift." Her speech.

Princess Meira only smiled happily at her brother's words. Hearing all the achievements that Lilian had obtained made them very eager to meet Lilian. Every time the letter they sent to Lilian did not get a reply.

Until one day for the first time a letter from the kingdom of Apollonia came. They thought it was a reply letter sent by Lilian but they had to swallow the disappointment because the contents of the letter said officially the relationship between Seint and Lilian.

In the scroll of the letter was attached a painting of intimacy between Seint and Lilian. From that day on they decided to find another way to meet Lilian in person.

One day the news of the discovery of gold and diamonds from the kingdom of Apollonia again became a warm conversation. Moreover, Lilian's name was included in the list of names that found the two precious stones. After a few days of news of the discovery, the Apollonian kingdom again sent a dance invitation letter. After long negotiations with the higher-ups of Esther's kingdom, they finally decided to send Crown Prince Erik and Princess Meira to attend the event.

The tiredness of Prince Erik and Princess Meira's long journey paid off after they saw Lilian directly walking with Seint towards her seat of honor.

Prince Erik and Princess Meira continued to look for opportunities to meet Lilian during the party but always failed because the girl was always surrounded by many people. So Prince Erik waited until Lilian was completely alone so he could freely chat longer with her.

Seint pulled Lilian's hand towards the garden near the hall. There was a long chair that fit two people and a table there. Both of them occupied the seats but none of them made a sound.

After feeling his anger calm down, Seint then looked at Lilian with a cold look.

"What did you guys talk about?" Ask Seint flatly.

Lilian stared right at Seint's eyes which were still shrouded in anger. "He just asked me to meet." The answer.

"just that? You talked to him for so long. You sure it's just that?" Seint asked as he looked at Lilian sharply.

"He asked me to meet in person to discuss business." Lilian answered honestly.

Seint stiffened his jaw. "Keep it?" Ask.

Lilian looked resentfully at Seint. "Of course ..." His words paused because Seint kicked the table in front of him so hard.

"You're surprising me!! Can't you hear my explanation first and then you kick something around you!! I didn't accept his invitation and why should I accept it?" Annoyed Lilian.

Seint's breathing began to regrow. "You're not covering anything up for me, are you?" He looked at Lilian seriously.

"Why should I cover it up from you? Why should I accept Prince Erik's offer?" Ketus Lilian's.

"Don't say his name." Emotions Seint heard Lilian mention the name of Prince Erik.

Lilian closed her eyes to dampen the emotions that would burn with Seint's anger. After feeling calmer Lilian opened her eyes then looked seriously at Seint.

"Alright I won't say his name. Listen to my explanation ... I did not accept his invitation because of what I met him for! If he really wants to discuss business he should ask you or Brother Zheyan. I am the Crown Princess, the spouse of the Crown Prince of the kingdom of Apollonia. Accepting his invitation would only lead to ugly rumors for me and why I should position myself into things that would cause me trouble." Obviously Lilian long.

Seint sighed calmly. "It's good if you understand." Cuek.

Lilian looked resentfully at Seint. "Other times if you want to get angry first listen to my explanation. My daily schedule as the Crown Princess is numerous and I don't have much time meeting her just to discuss business. If I have free time I'd better spend it with you, because of each of us ..." Lilian's explanation came to a halt when she realized what words she was about to say.

"We what?" Seint asked with a smile.

"We ... We ... Ah already ... Why are you looking at me like that?" Lilian asked to divert the conversation.

"What-like?" Seint asked still smiling brightly.

"You ... You rarely smile like that. Why are you smiling so much today?" Said Lilian nervously.

Seint raised his shoulders indifferently. "Maybe because I'm happy again."

Lilian looked at Seint suspiciously. "Aren't you angry? Quickly change your mood. Don't you get sick anymore." Said Lilian while sticking the back of her hand on Seint's forehead.

"How's it?" Ask Seint.

"Your body temperature is a little warm. Because of the night air?" Ask Lilian.

Seint held Lilian's hand on his forehead and tightly grasped Lilian's. "I'm okay ... My mood keeps changing because of you. At first I was angry but you made me happy. Next time don't get close to another man." He looked at Lilian seriously.

"I cannot be close to Father, Brother Zheyan, Brother Asgar, Artem ..." Lilian mentioned the names of people she knew.

"Of course besides them. Keep your distance from other men, your position was too close. Next time you have to keep as far away from the guy who's trying to get close to you." Seint.

"Allah ... You should do the same as me." Said Lilian while squinting her eyes at Seint.

"Of course ... Is there any other girl close to me besides you?" Ask Seint seriously.

"Many, Miss Raina and the other girls who since the party opened are trying to get close to you." Lilian.

"Those who try to get close to me. I never responded or responded to them. I even kicked them out to be away from me." Obviously Seint.

Lilian grunted softly. "Remain ... Who knows, you might be tempted. Everywhere men would love to be surrounded by lots of girls. Especially those girls who voluntarily do anything for you."

"That's their difference with you ... I'd rather have a girl who's selling like you." Goda Seint's.

Lilian snorted in annoyance. "Whenever you talk to me, you always piss me off. Could it not be a day that you speak sweetly to me?" Ask.

Seint nodded slowly. "Ohh so all this time you've been wishing I had a sweet talk to you. All right next time I'll do it." Her speech.

Lilian was getting upset. "Basic sucks." Said Lilian while hitting Seint's chest.

Seint simply smiled and caught Lilian's hand. "I'm just kidding." He said with a smile then pulled the nape of Lilian's neck and kissed her soft lips.
