Sleeping Beauty Wants The Throne
46. Feelings that Cannot Be Understood

And the long-awaited event has finally arrived. Within three days of staying at the palace, Luz avoided the main road that Evandre and his men often traveled. This method proved to be quite effective. Given the bustling Evandre that is getting denser every day, there is no gap for the man to be able to find Luz in this super-large palace.

Now the work is done. Luz managed to make the royal family amazed because of the greatness of his skill in the field of makeup. Each of them gives a lot of tips, maybe if collected Luz can buy several stores and their contents.

Envied? Yes, Luz deserves that because of his skills.

Feeling so satisfied with his reflection in the mirror, Luz once again confirmed his appearance. Ok, nothing is lacking, he then pulled the doorknob and out of his room.

Hearing the echoes of the meeting of the shoes with the marble floor, one of the bodyguards standing between the giant pillars unintentionally glanced at Luz who was standing in the doorway. As if hypnotizing, the bodyguard did not lower his gaze from Luz. How not, in a sleeveless pink dress, covered by a translucent white glass cloth that dangled visibly wrapped around her pure white shoulders, it was impossible for one to see it in a single glance. The woman was too conspicuous among the other nobles. On his head Luz wears a tiara of a similar color. It was very opposite to her amethyst-colored eyes, but it was precisely that thing that further enhanced her beauty.

"Crystal Lady!"

Hearing someone call him, Luz turned around. But after knowing who it was, he snorted and then refocused on his steps.

"Lady, wait a minute."

Given his status as Crown Prince, Luz's heavy heart turned his head over his shoulder. The man, Evandre in luxurious clothes decorated with gold came over followed by another man behind him. Ah, ja. Luz remembered that the man behind him was Cornelius.

"Let me talk alone with Crystal Lady."

Hearing the orders of his master who wanted privacy, Cornelius bowed obediently and moved away. Decided to pay attention to the interaction of his master and Luz from afar.

"I know you've been avoiding me lately, haven't you?"

"Just your feelings, Crown Prince. Don't exaggerate."

Evandre sighed tiredly. "Tell me honestly."

Luz was silent and replied, "If the answer is 'yes', what would you do?"

Luz looked at him bravely. After all, that's how it is. He was lazy to meet Evandre, seeing that his face was already sultry. Luz's swearing at the man in front of him is already a lot, lest Luz break it at the wrong time.

The man growled, violently grabbing Luz's arm and looking into her eyes deeply. "Never do anything like that to me again."

Luz tried to let go of his hand. "What are your rights?" challenge without fear. "My life is not to please you."

"Lady de Cera ...."

"Sorry, Your Highness. I have other needs." Luz lifted a little the end of her dress then lowered her head gracefully. "It's nice talking to you. Then, excuse me. The show will start soon."

Without listening to Evandre's reply, Luz immediately moved on from there. No matter how the response of the bodyguards who witnessed his actions was far from polite, the most important thing now was that Luz managed to save himself.

"Crystal Lady."

Luz was upset. Why does he always call her.

"I just wanted to tell you to get ready."

Luz looked at him silently. Although their distance was quite far, Evandre understood that from his purple bead, Luz was asking.

"Prepare for soon, this palace will be your home too."

After saying this, Evandre had a slanted smile and then turned away followed by Cornelius behind him.

Luz blinked, what the—

Luz understood what he meant. If Evandre says the palace will soon be his home too, he will propose to him soon.

Can't, Luz has to move faster.

But before that, Luz had to finish tonight's show first. The white-blossomed woman accelerated her steps towards the main hall of the palace. The doors that stand in every corner of the room are wide open, likewise with luxury chandeliers who enliven the event plus a neatly arranged music group in the corner of the room is busy playing one of the classical music.

"Lady Brietta Odyssey de Cera of Crystal Lady of Thompsville!"

After the guards announced his arrival, inevitably an existence as if it was sucked into him. Reflexes turned their heads towards the door, then chuckled in awe as they looked at Luz in a wide-length gown that matched her slender body. Plus her hair, who could not believe that she was truly the legendary Crystal Lady?

Luz saw the event starting to crowded form several circles of people who looked familiar already talking. During this time Luz admitted himself including less sociable. Instead of remaining silent like a fool, Luz decided to sit in one of the seats of the wallflower.

"Crystal Lady."

Again, Luz turned his head and smiled faintly. A woman in a cream dress seemed to show off a smile towards him.

"Yes?"

"Here is the wallflower chair."

Luz fell silent. Luz knows here the wallflower chair then what's wrong? She also did not want to find a husband. "Yes, I know. Is there a problem?"

"What?!"

Patience Luz, patience. Strengthen your shame. Do not get on a beautiful and special night this happens baku hantam which might be able to tarnish his good name.

Hearing Luz's screech, two women who were talking came straight over. From the very beginning of entering the hall, Luz knew that the two women were always watching him and chatting. I don't know, between them praising or just the opposite.

One of the two who wore a blue dress chimed in, "What do you mean say so rudely to Crystal Lady?!"

Oh, turns out these two guys are on Luz's side.

"I'm telling the truth. Isn't a wallflower chair specifically for unsellable women?"

"This woman is really.." hissed the other woman, wearing a maroon dress with a low cleavage.

Mouth sores are inevitable. Luz was confused, the attention of the people started to be directed towards the four of them.

"Stop or I'll go."

Hearing the resolute speech slid from Luz's lips, the three women instantly remained silent without a sound.

"I don't have a problem with you, Lady. You who suddenly come over and say the wrong thing. Can I just call your actions a form of social climbing?"

The woman in the cream dress was wide-eyed, "I'm not ...."

The two women who had defended Luz were satisfied with their chins raised. From his gaze as if speaking triumphantly See, that is the result if you dare to look for trouble with the Crystal Lady!

"You better leave now before I'm interested in knowing where you're from." Luz threw a cynical smile. "You don't want the Thompsville family to step on your family just because of your rotten mouth, do you?"

He shook fast. Raise the end of the dress slightly and then lower your head. "I'll excuse you, My Lady. Enjoy debutante tonight."

After that he actually turned around. Leaving Luz with two women who had defended him.

"She comes from the Carter family, My Lady" said the woman in a maroon dress and then blinked innocently as her —woman in blue— dress looked at her as if she wanted to swallow her alive. "What?"

"I was just threatening him. There's no time to take care of people like that." Luz shook his hand. "Ah, by the way, what's your name?"

"I'm Esme Whitney" replied the woman in a fast maroon, and she nudged her friend's arm. "And this is Debora Carter."

"Carter?"

"This woman was my half-sister, My Lady." Deborah grimaced, "She is indeed the dumbest woman in our family, even in the aristocratic exam alone does not pass."

Ah, it's appropriate that Debora had glared at Esme. But Deborah and her half-sister look hostile to each other. Well, it's natural to happen to fellow brothers let alone step-status.

"I told you, I'm just kidding, don't think too much."

"Thank you, My Lady. You are indeed generous," praised Deborah who had feared for the fate of her family.

"Lady, the woman in the capital is always talking about your twin sister" Esme said with sparkling eyes. "Can I dance with him? Just one song, huh?"

"You can persuade him yourself." Luz was a bit of a doubt that Ochonner would dance with just any woman. The man will usually only dance with his fiance or at least with the woman he needs to build relationships between families. "So he was on the dance floor. Wait a minute, let me find ...."

Luz closed his eyes to everyone on the dance floor. There was Sean Travis dancing with a red-haired woman, then Luz was so surprised when his gaze turned to the Grand Duke who was paired with Princess Giselle.

They look close. Even sometimes the Grand Duke who looked so enthusiastic threw questions, while the woman in his arms was always answering with a sweet smile that was never absent. Looks like a matching couple.

But Luz was upset.

"Damn ...." Luz quickly picked up the wine. Oh, what's up.

"My Lady, did something happen?"

"none. You can find Lord de Cera, I want to be alone."

Both look confused.

"What else is it?"

"B-well!" the two stammered and lifted their legs before Luz pulled out her fangs.

After the two men left, Luz secretly directed his gaze once again at the main hall. Feeling something broken inside the recesses of the heart, then heaved a heavy sigh.

Alastair, I don't understand myself. That how much you have influenced me?
