Chapter 74 Selecting a Crown Princess 1 (1/2)

”I am looking forward to spending this week with you princess.” Prince Regaleon gave me a very familiar smile that I so much love. My eyes went wide.

The smile that prince Regaleon just gave me was so similar to Leon's bright smile I so much love.

'Can it be?' I thought to myself.

Prince Regaleon's deep blue eyes are looking at me with such passion. It was like he was sending me a message with them.

”L-Leon? Rega-leon?” I murmured. You don't need to be a genius to put two-and-two together to get such an obvious hint.

Prince Regaleon's smile change to a mischievous one. He blinked one eye to me and gestured with his forefinger touching his perfect lips to be silent.

I closed my mouth abruptly but I can feel that my surprise is still evident in my face.

'How can that be? The crown prince of Grandcrest became my personal knight. He stayed with me for two years. And to top it off, we are in a relationship.' I thought to myself.

With that realization, I felt so embarrassed. I can feel a blush creep on my cheeks. I suddenly felt like I want to dig a hole and hide inside it. I put my hands over my face with embarrassment.

”Why are you hiding your face. You look so beautiful blushing.” Prince Regaleon said and chuckled.

”I-It's because...I...I didn't know.” I stuttered with my words, not knowing what to say.

Prince Regaleon gently held the hands that are hiding my face and pulled them down. I was so embarrassed that I held my head low and looked down. He gently cupped my chin and pulled it up so that we are looking at each other. My silver eyes met his dark blue eyes.

”Do you know why I came here officially as the crown prince of Grandcrest?” Prince Regaleon asked.

I remembered instantly the meeting that father held with the family.

”Y-You are searching for a bride.” I answered truthfully.

”Not just a bride. A crown princess of Grandcrest.” Prince Regaleon said.

”A crown princess!” I was shocked.

I know that the men of the royal family of Grandcrest practices concubinage to father any potential heirs to the throne.

For the crown prince of Grandcrest to search for a crown princess only means one thing. The one who is going to be selected would be the future queen of the kingdom of Grandcrest.

”Y-You mean...” I dare not finish my sentence. I am not sure if it is okay to have my hopes up.

”I know what you are thinking.” Prince Regaleon said with a serious tone. ”I will not take any bride and crown princess but you.”
