"Hu ... human? hu ... human flesh?" she said haltingly. Nathania was suddenly limp, even the spoon in her hand slipped out of her grip.
"Hoeeek ..." without thinking, the food that had entered her mouth immediately she vomited.
Her face was pale, knowing that the piece of meat that had entered her stomach was human flesh. Her mind immediately drifted away, thinking back to the people who had been victims of Aiden's cruelty.
Nathania got up from her place and rushed out of the kitchen door to get some fresh air, after an intense nausea filled her stomach.
"Damn! I should have predicted it. No wonder I have never eaten meat like that before. The texture is different from what I usually eat. Does that taste like human flesh? how disgusting! he's really crazy!" she thought.
Under the tree house, a long torch was stuck in the ground to illuminate the surroundings. Beside the torch, Nathania could see a tree trunk on which there was a deer's head which had be
Queen Alexandra seemed busy checking the pile of letters sent by the princesses and noble girls who fell in love with Prince Nathan, or rather Princess Nathania in disguise.She couldn't believe there were so many girls trying to get her daughter's attention. Not to mention the matchmaking proposal aimed at Prince Nathan even though he is only 15 years old."Recently the letters have been coming in more and more, Your Majesty!" said Diana as she put a cup of tea on the table."It seems like there have been so many girls who have fallen in love with her since the meeting of the three kingdoms at that time. If it were Nathan, I wouldn't be bothered by this!""Calm down, Your Majesty! isn't Prince Nathan's condition getting better since he routinely consumed the potion that the palace maid's daughter had given him ?""Yes, you're right! looks like we have to give her a gift, at first I had doubts about such a potion. That's why I really can't believe that
"Welcome to our palace! I hope you feel comfortable here!" Queen Liana greeted when Evangelia's royal family arrived at the palace.Everyone seemed busy making small talk, as if there was a signal that the two families would soon be united. Prince Keith who was beside his mother, barely even said anything.He stood tall like a hero statue on display in the palace courtyard, staring at others with his arrogant gaze. For Prince Keith, the royal family of a small country was nothing, no different from the Edafos aristocrats who he considered useless and only wasted state taxes.He didn't care, didn't care at all. Even though sometimes he tries to think of other things besides himself and his ambition to become the strongest, in the end it will all come back to him."Prince Keith, how are you? do you still remember me?" asked Princess Rosalia with a smile.Prince Keith frowned, trying to recognize the face of the woman standing before him."Do I know
Everyone fell silent to hear her statement, including Prince Keith who actually felt even more insulted because the party who canceled it was Princess Sofia, not himself. This insulted his male pride."Princess Sofia, what are you saying? you must be kidding, right?" asked Queen Erika who was panicked by her daughter's refusal. Meanwhile, King Julian was silent and could not say anything."No, Mother! I'm not kidding, because it seems His Majesty Prince Keith also has objections to this matchmaking. Of course it would be unfair for him to be forced to marry someone he doesn't love. Isn't that right, Prince Keith?" she said throwing a question at Prince Keith who was frozen in place at a woman's words.He felt very angry, coupled with the way Princess Sofia looked at him, it was clear that she underestimated him. His hands were clenched into fists, holding back his annoyance at the clever and calculating action of his opponent whom he thought was just a weak woman.
"I've talked to Princess Sofia, it seems she is afraid of Prince Keith because she saw how Prince Keith attacked Crown Prince Lithonia a while ago. It made her a little worried!" said Queen Erika, explaining the reason why her daughter refused an arranged marriage with Prince Keith. Even though that was said, it was not the only reason, because it was impossible to tell them that Princess Sofia had already fallen in love with the Crown Prince of Lithonia."I understand, it is not easy for a woman to accompany a man who has great power. There is a feeling of lingering worry, I have also experienced it before. Right, dear?" said Empress Liana as she glanced at her husband, King Jacob who was standing beside her."That's right, a very reasonable reason why she rejected our son. Keith was a little harsh and stubborn. But the truth, he is a very responsible man. Therefore we shouldn't rush to force them into marriage, let them be close and talk to each other!""I agree,
Princess Sofia sat on a garden bench by herself, trying to calm herself who had become increasingly depressed lately. It seems that now the situation is reversed, she can no longer make up her own mind.Now her parents expect a reply from her, because all this time she has been spoiled with a comfortable luxury life in the palace. Even she thought that this was very unfair to her, she was still forced to think about everyone including the people of Evangelia who still lived in poverty line."Don't think all kinds of things? how could Mother think like that? isn't that strange? she blatantly insulted me and showed his hatred. So, there was no way he could ...""Looks like you're alone? do you want me to accompany you?"A blonde-haired young man appeared from behind a large tree in the middle of the dark garden. He smirked after showing himself in front of a beautiful girl he met for the first time."Who are you?" asked Princess Sofia who felt that s
"What? you are really too much, huh? you accepted the match and told me that I should be happy? listen, Your Majesty! I really don't want to marry you and I really don't like you!""Wow ... wow ... you've made me hurt, Princess! listen, I really don't care if you hate me or whatever! because all I want is to teach an arrogant woman like you! your father and mother have been begging for us to accept this match, so you should thank me! that way, your small and poor country will be helped thanks to my kindness!" he said as he walked away after giving an ultimatum to Princess Sofia."Wait! don't you have someone you love?" asked Princess Sofia with teary eyes. Prince Keith stopped walking and turned his face back."Love is not important! love will only make people weak!""Being weak? then, do you always think that everyone is weak because they have love in their hearts?""Then, why don't you just ask yourself because it looks like you are being weakene
"Again?" asked Nathania who was dumbfounded by the gifts she had received. Jia and Helena laughed at the funny look on her face. They know why Nathania looks unhappy with the gifts she received, because these gifts were actually for Nathan, not for her.She felt sad because it seemed that people knew, two days from now was Prince Nathan's birthday, they had completely forgotten the figure of Princess Nathania."Looks like you are feeling sad, Your Majesty! what's wrong? you don't like the present?" asked Jia. Even though she actually expected Nathania's reason for showing a gloomy face, she still wanted to hear it directly from her beloved princess."Isn't there a present for me?" she asked sadly. As Jia and Helena guessed, they looked at each other and it seemed that they were the only ones who understood her feelings the best."We have prepared a special gift for the princess!" said Helena while touching Nathania's shoulder."Really? have you prepared
Aiden led Nathania on a different path than they were used to. Along the way, Aiden said nothing and told them where they were going.All around her, Nathania saw thousands of fireflies flying, making this forest even brighter. Come to think of it, Nathania just realized that every time she was with Aiden, the situation around her became clear. It's different if she walk in the forest alone, it feels like Aiden is in control of this forest.They arrived at the door of a very large cave, it made Nathania afraid because in her life, she had never been into the cave."We ... we're going to the cave?" asked Nathania with a trembling body looking at the dark mouth of the cave, as if there was a terrible monster in it. She even forgot that this young man who was holding her hand was the king of all monsters."Come on!" Aiden grabbed Nathania's hand to keep following him."Bu ... but ...""It's okay! I'm with you!" whether he realized it or not, what he
