The Princess Licorice
Chapter 15

"I won't expect too much, to you who don't know when to open your heart."

#Licorice

As usual in the morning, Prince Christopher was already in Licorice's room, as King Philip ordered them to sleep in one room, and Licorice was still in the bathroom, and he didn't know that Prince Christopher was in his room.

Christopher did this to avoid suspicion of the palace residents, especially against his father and other families, Christopher was sitting in a lounge chair while reading his book, he really likes books, and he likes books, just like Licorice, but not very acute.

"A long time she took a shower? Did he forget something? What if my father comes looking here?." - annoyed Christopher because since he came to Lico's room, he has not seen Licorice, which means he is bathing and preparing, so as not to look suspicious.

Tock.... Tock.... Tock....

The sound of a knock on the door surprised Christopher, it could have been the father, in fact king Philip would check the newlyweds' room every morning, because to make sure they did not separate rooms, because king Philip knew they were betrothed, he said, king Philip was also betrothed to his first wife, Sharon really did not want to sleep together at that time.

"Ah yes a moment...... " Christopher tried to be ordinary, and remained calm. He opened the door with a feeling of unworthiness, he was afraid of suspicion because of their marriage relationship.

"Ayahand..... Good morning. "welcome him with a faint smile, the king seems to be looking for someone.

"Where is your wife?" she asked directly, without further ado.

"Ah Licorice is still not finished, she is still preparing father" he said a little nervously, it made king Philip chuckle, the newlyweds.

"Oh okay.... I'll wait for you at the diner, but it looks like you'll be a long time, you'll be with the others." King Philip understood, his name is also the newlywed, it's okay not to have breakfast with other families.

Christopher is confused, he immediately goes to the bathroom to tell Licorice to speed up his morning bathing activities. He walked towards the bathroom, and confronted himself at his door, there was a doubt between knocking or not, it was confused and somehow there was nervousness he felt.

Just now that prince Christopher was about to knock on his door, suddenly from inside the open door featured Licorice wearing only a dryer white cloth, revealing her smooth white skin, as well as her wet hair, Christopher was shocked, as was Licorice, and he was shocked to see a prince in front of his bathroom.

Christopher did not blink to see the sighting of Licorice that he had never seen before, his heart suddenly beating faster, this was the first time he saw a woman who was only wrapped in cloth, making his desire awaken.

"P-prince...... " Licorice was shocked, it felt so embarrassed to look like this now, it felt like princess Licorice was screaming, but anyway in front of her now was her husband, her husband, his body was also fully owned by Christopher, only Licorice did not see any love in the eyes of the prince.

Christopher immediately turned his back on Licorice, and he could not help but look at the woman's body clearly, even though it was first for him, because the prince had never seen Isabelle before, Christopher will look after his woman until she actually marries him, but unfortunately the prince instead marries a woman he does not love.

"You get ready quickly, father is waiting for us at the dinner table with the others for breakfast." his voice is softer now, and Licorice is happy to hear that, as long as he had his legal wife just this time Christopher said in a gentle tone.

"Ah well prince." Licorice walked into the dressing room, also aware that the position was very awkward, as seen from how Christopher behaved.

The prince sat back down to wait for Licorice to prepare, not forgetting that she called Diana to help Licorice prepare. And now Christopher's mind is still clearly recording Licorice's beautiful body, and it's still being imagined.

"Akkhh shit why I even imagined it continues. "his murmur riled, even his naughty shadow began to gnaw on his brain.

About a few minutes Licorice was ready, she was wearing a maroon-colored dress, Licorice liked a long dress because of her status as a royal princess, so she rarely wore a knee-length dress, but indeed she was a perfect fit. Not to forget his trademark hairstyle, Licorice likes hair styled with a small-sized ribbon behind him, it makes him more graceful, not forgetting his crown of pride.

"Come on. "without further ado Christopher immediately grabbed Licorice's soft hand, it made Licorice startled by Christopher's sudden treatment.

"Well, be it. "they walked out of the room to the dining table, they went hand in hand, wanting it to feel like Licorice was always like that, but she had to come to her full consciousness, that somehow the prince would actually be able to accept it, and also forget Isabelle.

Arriving at the dining table, again Licorice saw Isabelle who had been sitting sweetly on Licorice's chair, quickly Christopher's hand was released, it was easy to take her off.

"Ahh I almost wish too high on you prince, I hope someday there is no pretense in this marriage of ours, I could be tired before that happens." inner again and again Licorice did not want to expect too high, because seeing the prince did not budge when he saw Isabelle.

"Heh I won't make your relationship both good."

Licorice relented again, as she was unwilling to argue before the king and queen, moreover there was the prince Mikhail who had already returned home from the imperial academy, huh Mikhail was her principal, he had developed an academy in the Federick kingdom, so he was now appointed headmaster.

Mikhail knew for sure what Licorice was feeling, should he be able to be more assertive and not naive, let alone let another woman occupy his seat, actually Mikhail was sick of seeing Isabelle's shameless behavior, she said, although it is still a brother, but still the status as a woman must be repaired.

Licorice went down the shelves that had been lined up neatly with a very large amount, she was still looking for the book she wanted, until she had unknowingly reached near Isabelle was sitting. Isabelle glanced at Licorice's flash, without Licorice knowing. Isabelle stood up from her seat and walked closer to Licorice, to their distance.

"How is Princess Licorice?." asked Isabelle suddenly with her cynical face, but Licorice tried not to rebuke.

"Ah Miss Isabelle... I am good... How about you?."

But faintly Isabelle heard the voice of the prince, this could be a good opportunity.

"I'm good too... " Having said that, Licorice was having a little trouble picking up her book, so this was a chance for Isabelle, she was a little closer to the shelf.

Bruckkk......

Akhhh....

Isabelle accidentally dropped several books that were quite thick and hit her body, until Isabelle sat down near Licorice's feet, along with the fact that Prince Christopher was already on the doorstep of the library, together with Liam they were shocked to hear the sound of falling objects and the screams of a woman. Licorice crouched down and was about to help Isabelle, but she refused.

"Your Lady Isabelle is okay?" he rudely brushed off Licorice's hand to help her, quickly getting Isabelle into action.

"Aww was very sick. "his screech, Christopher, who heard clearly that it belonged to Isabelle, rushed to the source of the voice.

"Isabella..." Christopher ran with his worried face, followed by Liam behind him, Licorice clearly saw the prince's face with a million of her worries, making Licorice shut up instantly.

"Prince." Christopher helps Isabelle stand up, as a result of the book, Isabelle gets a rash on her legs. Licorice also stood up, she looked at the two.

"Why don't you be careful Isabelle, it's a good thing it doesn't hit your head."

"No prince, it was Princess Licorice who accidentally dropped the book, I don't why she did it to me." Licorice was shocked by what Isabelle was saying, obviously she did not know about the book, but very shamelessly Isabelle was slandering Licorice.

"What?! so this is you Licorice? answer me?." Christopher began to ignite, not expecting his jolt so hard, Liam also did not expect the narration from Isabelle.

"I didn't do it prince. I was really picking up the book above me, and the book that fell was not me.... " Licorice was behind him, but Christopher didn't notice.

"Heh.... We lied apparently, look what we've done it's out of morale, do you want to kill Isabelle?."

"I'm not lying prince.... " Licorice is not listened to.

"Oh or don't you envy Isabelle, because she's the woman I love? because Isabelle always gets my attention? you just became Federick's royal princess, you've done your best." Licorice was silent, she was jealous of the woman loved by the man who is now her husband, but Licorice is not that bad, especially endangering others.

"Prince is already princess Licorice just being annoyed at me, so don't be extended either."

"I can't do it Isabelle, let me scold her, look at her because you're so in hurt, I don't want you to why." Christopher still defends Isabelle, even in front of Liam.

"What the fuck is this prince....? why are you so defending another woman in front of your wife, the account is not sure if Princess Licorice did it."

Liam couldn't stop what the prince said, because he also didn't know who was wrong, so he didn't want to interfere. But still the prince must be stopped, not to say any further.

"Never do you hurt Isabelle, especially before me, if you want your position not to be changed, do not do the princess, this is Federick's kingdom with fair law, not Zelda's kingdom, do we understand." licorice's eyes begin to heat up, she doesn't like Prince Christopher degrading the Zelda kingdom.

"Prince we better get Miss Isabelle right away, her face should be treated immediately, come on prince." Liam did not want the prince to say too far, he finally switched the conversation.

"Oh yeah come on Isabelle, you should get treatment right away...... " Christopher carried Isabelle's body, because her legs were still sore, and she couldn't walk.

Liam saluted Licorice before catching up with the prince, Licorice was still speechless, she could not say anything, until she realized with a tap of her hand on her shoulder.
