HE/HEROINE AND MY VILLAINESS

(CHARINESS)

-Astrod Kingdom-

*Prince Adam chamber*

Knock

"Your highness?" The butler calls for him, but he's not responding,

Knock

The butler knocks on the door again, but he's still not responding.

"Your highness is Dev. I'm getting in," Dev mention and went inside his chamber in silence.

Dev Walras twenty-five years old, Prince Adam's servant. He has been serving Prince Adam and the royal family for thirty years now. Dev went over to the window curtain and opened it. The light of the sun then gives color inside the room.

"Erm... is too bright," Prince Adam complains, still sleepy.

"Your highness is time to get up. Your breakfast is ready at the dining room," Dev mentions, and Prince Adam sits up and stretches all over his body.

"What about my father?" Prince Adam ask,

"King Phanthrel already went to his conference room to meet with all the ministers," Dev responds,

"What are they gathering for?" Prince Adam ask,

"The minister of north and south is the one who requests for an urgent conference this morning," Dev answered,

"Why? Is there something wrong?" Prince Adam worried,

"I think so because the king rush inside the conference room this morning, without having breakfast," Dev responds,

"What could have happened?" Prince Adam wonders, concerned. Because his father didn't act and behave rush before, but today. His father seemed anxious.

"I don't have a clue either, your highness," Dev responded, as he helps him get to change into decent cloth.

"Did the summit already start?" Prince Adam ask,

"Yes, they started already," Dev answer, and Prince Adam nod,

"Bring my breakfast inside my room. I won't eat in the dining room," Prince Adam demands. He's already well dressed.

"Right away, your highness," Dev reply bowing, then leave the room.

"Haaa, I am worried, but I still have to go to Cathlen because I want to confirm something," He mentions,

'I wonder what happened to me, the other. I'm supposed to visit Cathlen the other day, but how come I am back home. Also, my body feels heavy and unwell,' He thought bothered,

Knock

"Yes, come in," He answered the knock, and Dev then gets inside his room carrying his breakfast.

"Enjoy your meal, Your highness," Dev mentions,

"Thank you, I will," He answers while munching his food.

"Do you need anything from me, your highness?" Dev asks,

"Oh, yes. Deliver this letter to the Duke residence is for Lady Cathlen," He answers while munching away his food.

"As you wish, your highness, is that all?" Dev responds,

"Yes, that's all. You can leave now," Prince Adam reply, and Dev bowed, then leave his room.

Knock

"Who is it?" He asks,

"Is Ken, your highness," Sir Ken respond,

"Come in," Prince Adam replies, as Sir Ken then gets inside his room wearing a knight attire.

"Is good that you came early today," Prince Adam mentions,

"What's wrong, your highness?" Sir Ken asks, wondering.

"I will visit Lady Cathlen today," He answered,

"I see,"

"Don't you feel strange?"

"Yes?" Sir Ken looks at him, confused.

"I supposed to visit her late at night the other day, but I am back at home,"

"I'm..." Sir Ken can't answer because he is also doesn't know what is going on. Prince Adam looks at him and deep sighs.

"Sorry, I-your neck," Prince Adam mentions pointing at the left side of Sir Ken's neck.

"What is on my neck?" Sir Ken asks, worried.

"It has a bruise," Prince Adam mentions, as Sir Ken touches his neck and he feels a sting of pain. He hisses, Prince Adam frown then a sudden peculiar memory flash through him.

"Please, your highness spares my life," Angela pleads as she trembles and cry while kneeling to the ground. Then a sudden kicks push their sword away with them. Prince Adam was unaware of who hurt them with such strength. But when he stood up from the ground, he then saw it was his fiance Lady Cathlen.

"What is this, Cathlen!" He shouts in anger as confusion eats him.

"Cathlen, who are those people? And what are you doing? How come you know how to fight?" Prince Adam asks, surprised. But Cathlen only smiles at him.

"Come closer. I will tell you," Cathlen respond, then Prince Adam went close to her. And she then takes this chance to hit the pressure point of his neck using her right hand. Then Prince Adam loses consciousness.

GASP

"CATHLEN!" Prince Adam mentions as he stood out to the chair.

"Your highness?" Sir Ken got startled by his sudden change of mood.

"FOLLOW ME!" He demands with force as he passes through his guard with a dangerous aura. Sir Ken shivers in fear for no reason.

"Y-yes, your highness," He responds, stuttering because of fear as he saw his friend the Prince's face full of anger and despised.

Prince Adam strides fast to the hallway with Sir Ken following behind him. Every person he passes looks at him in fear because of the powerful aura he releases from anger.

"Dev!" Prince Adam shout as he saw him talking to the coachman outside the palace.

"Your highness, why are yo-" Dev couldn't finish his sentence because Prince Adam snatches away the letter out of his hand in a hostile manner.

"I will deliver my letter myself. You can go back to your work now," Prince Adam demanded with a potent force of anger showed on his face. Dev saw it and didn't ask any further questions.

"As you wish, your highness," He replies, as he bowed and left, in silence.

"Get my horse, Sir Ken," Prince Adam demand,

"Right away, your highness," Sir Ken pace reply, as he runs to fetch Prince Adam's horse. When they already have their horses to them, they then drove fast to go to the Duke residence.

-Duke Residence-

*Cathlen Chamber*

"Achoo! *sniff*" Cathlen sneeze out of the blue.

'Aiyo... is someone talking about me right now?' She thought,

"Miss, are you okay?" Angle asks, worried while she braids Cathlen hair,

"Angela, I'm fine. I only sneeze because of the Dust. I inhaled some a minute ago," Cathlen reasoned,

"Dust? There's still Dust inside your room?" Angela asks with concern showed on her face.

'Ahh... there she goes again, overreacting. Ha...,' Cathlen thought, exhausted as she smiles.

"Don't worry. I will inform the chambermaid that some servants are slacking off again with their jobs,"

"Okay, do as you wish," Cathlen reply not minding Angela.

Knock

"Who is it?" Angela asks as she went over to the door and opens it.

"Prince Adam is waiting for Lady Cathlen inside the guest room," Butler Dren delivered, and Cathlen heard it.

'So, he remembered. Oh, well, let's get rid of him today, shall we?' Cathlen thought, smirking as she watches herself inside the mirror.

"Miss," Angela called out to her as she wears an anxious look on her face.

"Angela..." She replies, still sitting in front of the mirror watching herself.

"Yes, Miss?" Angela respond as she went back to her,

"Do I look pretty today?" She mentions, and Angela got confused.

"Yes, you are, Miss. You are always pretty," Angela responds, and Cathlen laughs.

"You are such a comedian person, Angela," Cathlen mentions as she stood up and walked over to the door passing through her.

"Miss, wait," Angela holds her left wrist. Cathlen halt and look at her, smiling.

"Angela, they're in our territory," She mentions,

"But..." Angela still has fear and doubts about the situation.

"Angela, don't overthink. I will be fine, okay?" Cathlen mentions and Angela nod then let go of Cathlen wrist.

"Yes, Miss," Angela responded,

"Wait for me here. I'll be back within a minute," Cathlen demand,

"Yes, Miss," Angela responded,

"Good, let us go," Cathlen pointed at butler Dren as they then stride towards the guest room.

Knock

"Come in," Prince Adam replies to the knock.

"Your highness," Cathlen greets him with a bow as respect.

"Leave us alone for a minute," Prince Adam demand to Sir Ken,

"As you wish, your highness," Sir Ken reply bowing as he then leaves the room. When he's gone, Prince Adam then gets close to Cathlen and holds her left wrist tight with an angry look engraved on his face.

"What?" Cathlen asks, not affected by Prince Adam's powerful hold on her wrist.

"You... who are you, where's CATHLEN!" Prince Adam asks in anger, but Cathlen only looks at him with no interest.

"What do you want me to say," Cathlen replied,

"You are not Cathlen because if you are Cathlen. You already trembled by now," Prince speculates, and Cathlen laughs.

'Ho ho ho, he is a witted man after all. Well, then let's give him an irrational lesson for today, shall we?' She thought, sinister.
