Chapter 35 - Princess Lyn P7 (2/2)

”Kazuya!” Lyn exclaimed surprised. She genuinely didn't expect to see him so soon. She unknowingly became giddy and stood up excitedly.

Kazuya laughed, ”Slow down, you'll trip.”

Oh, Lyn realized half way and changed her footsteps to much slower ones.

”Hey, mind taking a walk with me?”

”A walk?” Lyn said puzzled.

Kazuya nodded, ”Outside.”

Outside the castle? Though Kazuya took her to the market a few times since then. She was still suspicious about the whole affair. Surely there's a catch to all this? During their little outings, she always expected her Eldest Brothers guard crew to appear and drag her back.

”In town?”

”No, outside.”

Ehhhh? Lyn looked at him with wide eyes, ”Kazuya, I'm flattered. But you know I don't think they'll let you this time.” Whatever bargain he struck with her Mother. There's no way she would allow him. Wait not Mother but her brother.

Kazuya's lips curve to a smile, ”Hmm? Then what do you call these?” he dove into his pocket and took something out.

It was two golden card passes out of the main town gates. Her eyes widened, ”Wh--?”

Kazuya laughed at her reaction, ”See?”

She took them from her hands and scanned the validity. When she saw the signature, she frowned, ”My sister?”

”Yeah, she owed me a favor so..”

Kazuya he knew her sister? Since when? He hasn't been here for long?

”I met her before I came here.”

At that comment, Lyn felt something heavy weigh down in her heart. Kazuya knew her Eldest sister Lethia before he came here? The more she repeated those words, the heavier the feeling in her heart. Kazuya pulled her to his arms, ”Are you jealous?”

Lyn's cheeks puffed into a pout, ”Not funny.”

”Relax it was only a short encounter. Your sister was under ignito and caused some trouble with some thugs with her haughty attitude. I was passing by and helped her out.”

Why would he help a stranger, no that shouldn't surprise her? This person is a kind and gentle person after all. Lyn tightened her hold, but it still bothered her. She liked the idea that she net Kazuya first. But now... Lyn shook her head, stop being so petty.

Kazuya suddenly drew her away from him surprising her, ”Kazuya?”

He smiled brightly as he held her hand up, ”The ring.”

Ah.

”Thank you.”

Lyn looked at him confused. Why is he thanking her? Isn't it normal to wear things you receive from people? However, Kazuya didn't get a chance to let her explain.

”Do you need to get dressed? Should I leave and come back later?”

Lyn shook her head, ”Ah, no it's okay. I can wear these clothes out.”

Today she picked out a rather western off shoulder yellow and white dress that went past her shoulders. She does not wear such clothing often. But considering how nobody was around, Lyn thought she might as well. Her thoughts broke off when Kazuya wrapped his cloak around her, and she blinked in surprise.

”It's chilly today, so wear that.”

But it's sunny today? Lyn knew because she spent more time loitering around in the balcony than study. Odd person. Still, her gaze fell on the cloak around her shoulders. She doesn't dislike wearing the clothes he gives her.
