Chapter 7:
A villainess grievous wish
stop saying sister your brother might hear you"catherine sigh as she weakly smiled
"you were my sis long before you were his fiance and i knew you before him even he cannot object to that"
'' thats why he lets it go pretending he didnt hear be more careful luca''
'' don't want to''prince luca stubnornly.ansered but catherine didnt respond
''so thats prince luca?''i thought to myself
aw what an awkward conversation come one you good thing they didn't notice me yet.
''i heard clementine acting weird ever since she woke up from droning
''after she hurt her head,she really became a different person
''although she lost her memory,she seems to be nicer" she said as she rested her head on Prince Luca's shoulder.''before she had an accident .we had a huge fight..but i don't think it wold be necessary for her to know.. now that she lost all her memrory.i want her to be able to start again''
''even im surprised, though her manners and intelligence seems deteriorate ''luca said
''but she...reminds me of you luca''
''hey thats harsh''luca responded
'"No boundaries, speaking her mind, a free soul who loves having fun but hates losing," Catherine said with a soft and gentle smile. "She always stands for what is right and has a strong sense of justice"
“please take care of her when I'm gone luca”
Don’t say that!you already know how I feel about you”luca sigh
"catherine...."i whispered
"Clementine, what did you do?!"
I jumped startled, my attention immediately drawn away from Luca and Catherine's conversation. "Raphael," I mumbled, as I recognized his voice.
"queen Guinevere has summoned you. Please come with me," Raphael said before grabbing my hand and pulling me away from the scene. We continued walking until we reached a large door, and he stopped and looked at me. I quickly protested, "What? I didn't do anything!"
Raphael gave me a stern look, "I know, but the queen still wishes to speak with you."
I may not be around but you will be fine I promise”
“less talk less mistake. Always remember that”he added and I had no choice but to enter the room
"youre late" said the beautiful fairskinned woman
''so this is queen Guinevere? The 1st wife?''
''so it was you who pulled the childish fight against my son rigel?''she asked and i nodded
"do you even know what possible consequences you might take from your unreasonable action?''
''im completly aware and I'm willing to take responsibility for what i did"
'wait?whats with this formality?im just going to kill myself sooner or later anyways
''i heard from the other maids you've been acting weird lately.and as i can see you lost your manner and you act ridiculously stupid as well" the queen smiled at me as if waiting for my response
''what do you think the consequences would be? Lady clementine?''
I understand what I did and I'm ready to accept whatever punishment you deem appropriate but what would be the appropriate punishment for the prince who allowed someone to disrespect him?"
"That brat need some beating "
The queen chuckled and responded, "That's true. My husband has been rather lenient with our son, so it's no surprise he's gotten into trouble
The queen said cheerfully "this is not about rigel, I just want to have a conversation with you. Especially I've heard that you've tried to drown yourself again. I want to hear your side of the story, as Eriol believes that your engagement to him is the reason behind your attempt to take your own life."
"I know it may seem illogical," I began, "but I have no desire to marry. I cannot picture myself becoming eriols wife , let alone being chained to him for the rest of my life."
"Things would be easy for you once Eriol agrees to the breakup," the queen spoke, "and you won't have to go back to the Lagrenes mansion. You're free to stay here in the palace for as long as you like."
There was a beat of silence before the queen continued, "The Clementine I knew is obsessed with Eriol so much that I never imagined her breaking off the engagement I suppose what Raphael must have been true."
the queen smiled..a genuine one''
''you can leave now"
i sigh as i nooded ''thank you for having me''you seem to be a different person"
She's sharp
'' you became kinder and foolish''as if youre a different person''
last thing she said before I walked out from the room
"oh look whos waiting for me" I heard Someone said and I turned around to see the red hair jerk
.is he stupid or what?"im not waiting for you moron
"I'm so pissed off "i said to him
''the queen was furious. After she saw the bruise"he said pointing at his bruise i make in his forehead ignoring what i have said.i jist literally called him a moron
"she said to give you a lashing"rigel added as he fix his hair with his hand
"why me?you're the one that prompted it"i said as i marched down to the direction of the nearest balcony
as i expected, the brat followed me
"i guess you Left out the part where you were in the wrong"
"you wouldn't Believe how i asked for your forgiveness"he said in an proud exaggerated tone
"what do you think??he smirked "you should thank me"he added as he crossed his arms and smiled proudly
"well...i Don't know where you found that kind of generosity"i said as i sigh''but yes thank you so much",
I walked away but he followed me anyways
i knew it"i said as i ruffled my hair and started to march again until i reached the balcony and leaned to it
"Anyways I've never fought someone like that before...you see people fear me and don't fight back no matter how hard I try "prince rady said as he leaned on the balcony as well"ive never had a real fight"he added as he glanced at me"it was really fun!"
"stop by often we can really fight some more"i said as i looked at him and smiled widely
are you saying you want to see me more often
i sat down the balustrade while trying to maintain balance as u stared at space ignoring rigel
what are you worried about
whatever your worries is.youll forget them once you play.i didn't know what you like so i brought you everything"he said as he took off something from his pocket
this is something i really like"he said as he showed me his palms with beautiful marbles
"is he really that stupid or what?i thought to myself
"how old are you that you play with these things?"
"then what do you like?"
gosh im already frustrated
"Take all of this and play over there okay?"I said as I pushed the marbles away
"Why would I play with these bombs?"he asked confusedly
"is it something i can help you with?i am a prince"
"'can you fill a lake with water?"i asked and laugh a bit “just kidding"
he did not respond and just kept staring at me.i sigh
“are you engaged?"i asked. Despite his confusion he shook his head off "not yet"
"if your fiance suddenly began sick and would be very ill,would you bring another woman?"
the prince didn't answer "well,i don't want to deal with the problem of having many wives,i will find someone i will vow to marry and would love her for the rest of my life"
''it would be nice if everyone were like you prince shin''i said staring blankly to space''youre unexpectedly pure ''i step down from the balustrade where i was sitting and silently walk away from prince randy leaving him around
it seems like the 5th prince is inlove with catherine...i wonder
i laugh sarcastically “why do i feel this way towards Catherine?"
was it because i know she will die soon??i dont want to lose her"i said to myself “why am i even crying?shes not even my real cousin
But , If Catherine dies, will Raphael forget about her and love someone else?
