Chapter 5: I Can’t Escape
I was brought back .
Moreover, I was brought back to the Royal Palace since the preparations were pretty much done .
As I softly cried in despair, Clark-sama sat beside me and caressed my knee . Hey, don’t s.e.xually hara.s.s me in the middle of all this confusion!
“Letty, you’ll ruin your cute face if you cry so much . ”
It’s your actions that made me cry, you know!
“I wanna go home…”
“That’s impossible . ”
He stroked my head while saying, “Sorry . ” It shouldn’t be ‘Sorry,’ but, ‘I’ll let you go back . ’
Clark-sama pulled on my hand as I wept and started walking . Where are you taking me? Don’t tell me, an early wedding?
Even as I resisted, he easily pulled me along .
“Letty, look up . ”
I reluctantly looked up as I was told to .
“There’s…”
“Yeah . ”
“There’s a river…”
In the castle courtyard was a small, flowing river . You could even see fishes swimming in it .
“I made one . ”
You mean you made it with money…!
‘As expected of the most powerful royalty!’ I thought, but it’s not like I hate it .
“You like rivers, right? You’ll be able to fish here as well . ”
It’s true that I do like rivers . I also like to fish . I love it .
“Hey, it’s fine to do the things you like whenever you want from here on out . Although you’ll have to do diplomatic stuff, you won’t have to do it as much . There’s no more princess training as well . ”
He compromised so much . But will the queen allow me to do that much?
“It’ll be fine, I won’t let anyone say otherwise . Since I properly got permission . ”
“From who?”
“His Majesty the King . ”
“Hieee!”
I unconsciously let out an idiotic voice .
“If I told everyone, ‘Since I’m not going to marry anyone else aside from Letty, if she were to run away, I might not want to have kids,’ they’ll easily agree . ”
People call that a threat .
“So let’s get married . It’s not a bad idea, right? You can peacefully live a carefree life instead of becoming a n.o.ble’s wife . Anyways, since you’ll get married to someone someday, just marry this fine specimen right here . ”
He’s the cause of my bad debt .
I look at his face as he came closer . Beautiful, serene eyes . Looking at his hair rustling in the breeze, without knowing why, I agreed, thinking, ‘I see, he’s definitely like a prince . ’
“But it’s not because I’m moved by your kindness!”
I covered his approaching lips an inch away . He makes a spiteful face for some unknown reason . Rather, I’m the one who wants to make that face instead .
“…What are you dissatisfied with?”
He removed the hand that covered his lips .
“Marrying into royalty . ”
“You’ll have to bear with that one . ”
“No . ”
Without giving up, I shake my head, and Clark-sama lets out a sigh .
“Leticia, I’m sorry . ”
As he said that, Clark-sama held me up in his arms and brought me inside the castle .
I have a bad feeling about this .
“Let me down!”
I struggled in his arms as much as I could, but I was no match for him . This is so frustrating!
Like that, I was taken to a room deep inside the castle .
“Letty, you’ll be staying here until the wedding preparations are completely finished . ”
Clark-sama grinned with his beautiful face and heartlessly closed the door .
I immediately tried opening the door .
“I-It won’t open…!”
Leticia, a duke’s daughter, 17 years old . For the first time in my life, I’m under house arrest .
LOL HOUSE ARREST . But wow, he made her a river just so she’d get married to him . d.a.m.n . I want a guy like that . But also, you’ll see it in future chapters but Clark is really in love with Letty, hence why there’s a yandere? tag for this story on syosetu .
E/N: Hi again . I’ll be helping out a bit here too .
I do have to admire Clark’s devotion to Letty, but I wonder… how’d he get the time and the workforce just to build a river in the time since he last met her?
