The Princess Licorice
Chapter 13

Licorice quickly headed for her room, and it was almost night. He opened the door to his room, and Christopher was sitting on his bed, Licorice was surprised to see this, Christopher glanced at the flash of Licorice who had just come.

"Sorry prince." Licorice looked down and saluted, knowing the mistake she had made. Christopher gets out of bed, he gets tired of waiting in the room for a girl he doesn't love.

"You should know more about princess time.... lest my patience run out, it's almost into dinner, why do you always do your best in my kingdom?." Angry Christopher, if he sees Licorice's face somehow makes him lose control, and he can't say more gently.

"I don't mean so prince..... " Licorice could not say anything more, although being late was not her will.

"Very confiscating once princess...is with archduke Wiliam more fun than waiting quietly in the room? basic lady doesn't know herself." If it wasn't for king Philip telling her to, maybe Licorice would have spent her time in the room reading all sorts of books.

"Your words have been too harsh on the prince.I'm not that low." his voice began to rise slightly, Licorice did not accept Christopher's words.

"Rude? heh whereas you enjoyed it so much, that you forgot the time, if this were to happen again father would know about our relationship which actually means nothing at all." Licorice was silent, again and again the words of prince Christopher hurt her heart.

"I'm still holding on to this relationship solely because of my father, and I don't expect anything in this relationship either, let alone to have children... cihhhh I would not be willing to have children with a woman who does not know yourself like you." his words really torment her inner, this is only a week she became the wife of a prince who is now a general.

"I wish the same prince.now you better prepare for dinner." said Licorice with a calm face and flat impression, though her heart felt a deep pain, and she felt a deep pain, maybe because the prince will never be able to forget Isabelle. Christopher looked out of Licorice's room, entering his room not far from his wife's.

Truly a relationship filled with sheer falsity, everything is just wishful thinking that will not come true, an unexpected presence is one that is very heartbreaking, Licorice tries to hold back her anger, she said, if it wasn't her husband, Licorice would have been carried away in anger. He was also preparing for dinner together as usual, only now that he saw Isabelle sitting sweetly beside Elizabeth who was his seat.

"Good night, glorious king and queen.and also the great royal family of Federick, and Miss Isabelle" Licorice saluted, walking side by side with the prince, making Isabelle's heart boil, not accepting of their closeness, though Isabelle knew that it was just a pretense.

"Greetings my daughter.... " Licorice and Christopher sat next to each other, but faced Isabelle.

"Sorry princess.I have been presumptuous to occupy your place, if you object I will move place" he said very gently, he even put on his guilty face.

"No need for Miss Isabelle, sit quietly, and enjoy dinner at this time." King Philip did not expect what his son-in-law did, what good manners.

"Ah thank you for your generosity princess.". "please, but not with her heart, when she intends to trap Licorice, because usually the royal son-in-law will be jealous of what others do to him, but this is exactly the opposite.

They ate their food, occasionally Licorice looked at the prince, who was consciously staring at Isabelle without blinking, there was a taste that Licorice could not explain, a taste she had never felt before, a taste she had never felt before, like envy wanted to be noticed by the prince, because the more entitled to all of it is he who has been legally his wife.

"How was the guidance of archduke Wiliam this afternoon Licorice?" asked king Philip in the middle of dinner. Licorice put down her knife and fork, she answered very gracefully, indeed worthy of being called a princess.

"Thank you for your noble generosity, the king.he is very experienced in guiding, I am very happy to be able to study together with archduke Wiliam" said Licorice happily, that beautiful smile was engraved clearly on her beautiful face, adding to the more charming.

Prince Christopher was stunned to see his wife's beautiful smile, this was the first time he saw that sincere smile, a smile that Licorice never seemed to be with him. For a second Christopher could not turn away from Licorice, a very natural beauty, it made Isabelle did not accept Isabelle did not want Christopher to turn his eyes to another girl. He deliberately spilled a drink onto his dress.

"Ahh.... geez.n... "christopher's gaze was immediately fixed on Isabelle, she looked very worried.

"Isabelle... Are you okay?." Christopher immediately helps Isabelle, and quickly calls the ministry to help get her done.

"Servant please help Isabelle to change her dress." the maid immediately responded, knowing that Isabelle was also a royal person.

Although they knew that Isabelle was only the daughter of a marquez, but she had a close relationship with the first empress, Queen Sharon, because Isabelle's father still had a blood relationship with queen Sharon, yes, you could say it is still a distant relative, while Isabelle and Christopher have been together since childhood, and all the inhabitants of the kingdom know very well about it, and they also know the love story of both.

Christopher is so considerate with Isabelle, even quick to respond if it's about Isabelle, it's lucky to be loved by someone we love, they both have the same feeling, they both have the same feeling, the small attention did not escape from the view of Licorice who was clearly his wife.

"Am I jealous of Miss Isabelle? can love grow out of pain? why do I even envy the attention of the prince.ah already Licorice, do not expect more with the uncertain." maybe one day will grow love in Licorice's heart to her husband, although there was currently only a difficult taste for Licorice to explain, but this was absolute from within her little heart.

Queen Karina also saw how close the prince was to Isabelle, and the prince lightly performed this before Licorice, but she could only remain silent, because after all Christopher would never want to listen to anything Karina said, even if it was for his good.

While Elizabeth can only remain silent, as she knows the closeness between her brother and Isabelle, they are difficult to separate, but even so Prince Christopher should be able to understand the situation. While Prince Albert and Mikhail, they were busy with their activities, so they were not here at the moment.

"Have let the servants who helped Isabelle, let's continue this dinner." King Philip opened his voice, Christopher returned to his seat, they continued their dinner.

"I'm done, dad...." Christopher got up from his seat, he left the place to eat just like that, regardless of Licorice. Licorice knew where the prince was going, yes she would definitely want to meet his idol.

"Have your dinner first Licorice, it's not good to leave food on the plate." Karina immediately invited her daughter-in-law to talk, Elizabeth also spent her dinner together.

After dinner Licorice also returned to her room, but before that she, as usual, looked at the night sky, this evening looked very beautiful, the new crescent moon, and was still there, in addition, stars fill the night sky. Maybe he'll be a little longer in the palace garden, because he won't bother the two. Licorice walked through the garden that many planted with various flowers, the fragrance was so fragrant.

"That fragrant sweet flower of the night." Licorice sat herself in the garden chair, feeling the silence that began to approach her. The feeling that began to dissolve in the beauty of the night, Licorice still continued to stare at the stars.

From the upper window Licorice unwittingly looked at her, but she quickly closed the curtains of her room, as if she was reluctant to see them.

"Don't be careless again Isabelle, I'm very worried about your safety" Christopher said in an anxious tone.

"Yes prince I'll be careful." Now they're both talking in Christopher's room, just the two of them.

"You must not worry too much about my relationship with Licorice, it is nothing more than status, and only for formality, and this heart is only for you an Isabelle." Christopher knew that Isabelle must have been worried about the prince's relationship with Licorice, especially now that they were married, and their status was clear in the eyes of the law.

"Yes I understand the prince... I'm just afraid your heart will turn to Princess Licorice, she is very authoritative, let alone she is the daughter of a king, I will definitely lose a lot to princess Licorice." Christopher cupped both of Isabelle's cheeks gently, staring at her teary-eyed bead.

"I will not turn away from you Isabelle, the most important thing is that I can continue with you." Christopher hugged Isabelle tightly, to calm her heart.

"You promised the prince?...."

"Yes I promise Isabelle."
