Reborn princess: I will change my ill-fate - 185 Chapter

Peter let out a sigh in dejection. He know, he can’t convince the princess and now that she already included many pleas’ in her request, he really can’t bare to disappoint her. After all, it’s not like she isn’t being mindful of her words and acting selfishly, instead, selflessly worried about his best friend’s life.

No matter how risky is the situation at the east, the emperor made it mandatory for Evan to spread Evan’s presence there, outside the capital. The whole capital has already accepted Evan as their future emperor, however, the capital isn’t everything, they need to make sure to speak louder, all around the empire and stake their claim.

This is a show made to watch, especially, to those people, who still have false assumptions of not letting Evan to become an emperor in future. So this riot in east is actually a good opportunity to let their foolish thoughts to perish and get good grasp on the situation and take the crown prince Evan’s grace side already, if they still wish to hold any power within their grasp.

Henceforth, no matter what happens, Evan should stay there and appease the people to make his path clear in future.

But he can’t seem to fathom with the point that he should hide a big fact like this to Evan. Yes, the princess told she would handle if he questions him, but his conscience won’t let him live this down and Evan, who trusts him blindly would surely be disappointed in him. And, Peter can’t even think of it even in his dreams.

” Peter, it’s not like I am asking you to lie to Evan. It’s just a matter of time. What will happen if he gets the whiff of the incident now or later?, ” She peeked at Peter, wondering what might be going inside his brain, however, just as she assumed, there is his signature emotionless face, not allowing her to atleast guess anything.

“I hope you very well know the answer to my question. You have been with Evan more than me. More than as a master and an aide, I know you two are great friends, so I think you choose your decision wisely and think which is in better interests of Evan, ” Saying that, she literally didn’t even wait for another second to listen to his reply, as she hurriedly made her way towards her room, leaving a confused Peter all by himself.

She didn’t want to stay and argue more with Peter. The more she talks about her requests, the more Peter may unconsciously assume bad about her. Aeinshia doesn’t know what was in Peter’s mind, so the best escape is to put her request and some valid points and leave the thinking and contemplation on Peter.

Peter shook his head in an attempt of denial.

‘No~ that can’t be done. Aeinshia is right. It’s for both of their best interests. It’s only right for Evan to stay in East. Aish~ I should have known this better.Would that idiot will be angry at me for hiding the trut— ‘ he shook his head, as it seemed not the right way to form the sentence.

‘ No, no it’s not hiding, it’s called acting accordingly with the situation. He will surely know about everything after he is back, and he is the one who told me to follow every command of his soon to be wife, so he needs to be responsible for his own words and I am nowhere at fault. Yes, that’ it, let’s face it in future, ‘ thinking as such Peter tried to cool down the turbulent waves inside his heart, he know, that’s not how it is going to be, but he need to calm himself atleast for now and there’s still a lot of time left for him to gather all the courage to face his dearest friend’s wrath in future.

However, that’s not his main concern for now. He need to give daily updates to his dearest friend, and he need to figure out what should be in his letter for Evan.

…

At an official house, east part of seazle empire:

The night began, yet there is someone, who is standing in the balcony, watching the moon. Do you think he is in the mood to appreciate the beautiful art in front of his eyes? Nope, he is there because he couldn’t fall asleep from all the thoughts rolling in his mind for his dearest Aeinshia.

Holding the stone, which she passed onto him, he is trying to cheer himself up.

Probably its because it’s been long since he felt the same feeling of missing someone, it is making him feel uneasy all day long and he couldn’t stop his mind from wandering. And on top of them, no matter what, he couldn’t forget the absence of Peter, his best friend beside him, the place next to him is feeling all empty.

Since they were children, both of them sticked together and this is their first time to stay far away from each other, making him feel the empty presence, which he is not accustomed to.

‘ Is it because I am really missing him or could it be because I am so used to his presence, and now that I sent him away from me, making me think about him? But, that fool should have atleast sent me a letter. Usually he is so good at talk and sending updates, then why is he slow now? ‘ saying that, he looked into the dark sky which is shining brightly with the little moon light over his top.

He is checking what time it is and still waiting for a word either from his best friend or from his lover.

Tightening the grip of the stone, he continued his monologue, ‘ I was expecting atleast few words from Aeinshia, what are you doing right now? Did she go to city Sylter? If it weren’t because of this riot, then I would have been enjoying a holiday with my love, but, everything has to come at the right moment and disrupt the plan, ‘

‘ tsk~ I didn’t even become an emperor yet, and I already couldn’t spend the time with my loved ones and began to break my promises. It can’t continue like this, next time I need to make sure to keep my word, ‘ Evan decided it within his heart.

However, after everything, he couldn’t still find answer to one question. Didn’t he make it clear to her, his intentions were written all over his face and he made sure to know, that he is clearly chasing her, then why didn’t she speak any word to him or atleast send a letter, after staying nearly two days away from him? He was unsure, whether he is the one, who in this state or whether she is also thinking about him like he did.

( Nope~ you are a lovelorn teenager. Its ok, soon you will get a word from your love) ~ author

Facing the moon, he opened his mouth to pass few words.

‘ It is said that, the moon will pass the message to our loved ones if we earnestly sent the message with our whole heart. I hope you could hear it my love. Are you doing well? I hope you are eating well and sleeping well, of course, do add me in your dreams. I am trying to resolve the riot, but it doesn’t seem as an easy task and doesn’t look like it will end anytime now. So hope, you don’t miss me too much and take care of yourself. Wait for me, ‘ finishing his last sentence, he blankly stared into the sky, but nothing really going through his mind, except his eyes taking down the wonderful sky ahead of himself.

Knock~ knock~

Suddenly, a knock came from the main door. His spirit raised up, wishing any news might have been here to be delivered. Wearing a lovely smile on his face, he turned around to order the servants.
