"Are you saying that all this time I was feeling guilty for no reason?!" Yura uttered in surprise

"You were feeling guilty?, why?" Hikaru curiously asked

"I thought I was the reason you transferred schools, I even thought that you were kidnapped by one of the members of the Aikawa clan because you saved me back then" Yura stated

"Every night I was worried of what might they did to you because of me, you left without a word and how was I supposed to know you're actually from the Aikawa clan?!" she stated with anger

Yura was so furious because all the time she was blaming herself was actually for nothing

Unknowingly, her tears started falling down in Hikaru's arm

"I even blamed myself back then, I thought they were going to kill you because I heard some people saying that if you go against the Aikawa clan you will either be punished severely or get killed" Yura stated while wiping her tears away

Just then, Hikaru suddenly hugged her tightly as he said "I'm sorry for not telling you back then"

Yura pushed away from his embrace and wipe her tears then she looked back at him

"But I'm alright now and since Kei is just fine I'm free from those guilt already" Yura uttered as she happily smiled at him

Hikaru gently smiled as he said "You still remained the same"

"Hmm?" Yura uttered as she curiously gaze at him

"You still had that bright smile on your face" Hikaru stated

Yura lightly laughed as she said "And you still had that clumsiness and lively side of yours"

Hikaru just laughed as he gazed at Yura

"I should probably call you Prince Hikaru from now on, why did you even change your name back then?" Yura curiously asked

"Well I ran away from school since they forced me here to study at books all the time but they eventually found me there, that is why I didn't even had the time to say goodbye to you or my classmates" Hikaru replied with a grin

Yura sighed as she said "For a Prince, you're quite troublesome and irresponsible"

Hikaru laughed and flicked Yura's forehead as he said "Hey!, I've changed okay"

Yura smiled as she thought ‘I once fell in love with his carefree and cheerful side but look where I am now, loving a calm and serious looking man’

"But for some reason, you're turning very lady-like now" Hikaru stated

Yura glared at him as she said "Hey!, is that even a compliment?!"

Hikaru ruffled her hair as he said "Of course, back then you were super adorable especially when your face turned red all of a sudden but now it's already a balance, you're adorable at the same time beautiful"

Yura looked at him suspiciously as she said "What has gotten into you?, did you finally learned to appreciate things in life"

Hikaru laughed as he said "I have already appreciated it before, I was just not brave enough to say it"

"Of course you did" Yura sarcastically uttered

Just then, a familiar voice suddenly spoke from behind her

"Yura!" Kaname called out

Yura turned around and Kaname was walking towards them

"Kaname" Yura uttered

Kaname gazed at her then at Hikaru who was standing close to her

"Lady Yoshino is looking for you" Kaname stated

Yura nodded her head as she said "I understand"

Yura looked at Hikaru then bowed her head as she said "I will be going now Your Highness"

Hikaru smiled as he said "Okay, take care of yourself"

Yura nodded her head and immediately went away with Kaname

"Why were you with him?" Kaname asked

"As I was walking he suddenly fell from a tree, I helped him out somehow" Yura replied

Kaname remained silent as they were walking together

‘Should I tell him about Hikaru being Kei?’ Yura thought to herself

"Don't get too close with him" Kaname stated

Yura looked at him as she said "There's something I should tell you"

"What is it?" he asked

Before Yura could tell him about Hikaru, Lady Yoshino suddenly spoke from afar

"There you are, the king must be there already so we have to go now" Yoshino stated

Yura immediately bowed her head as she said "I'm sorry for making you wait Lady Yoshino"

"Let us depart" Yoshino stated then walked away

Kaname gazed at Yura as he said "Tell me about it later"

Yura nodded her head in response

At the archery field, Yura was standing at a sheltered spot which is a distance away from Yoshino

‘This is the first time I have seen the king in person, he is sitting in the center while Lady Yoshino is sitting at his right side’ Yura thought

"Is Lady Yoshino perhaps one of the king's concubine or it could be that they're siblings?" Yura mumbled under her breath

‘The woman sitting on the king's left side must also be his concubine, somehow I felt a resemblance between her and Hikaru’ Yura thought to herself

"Why are you staring at concubine Ayumi?" Kaname asked

"So she really is a concubine, then is she the biological mother of Prince Hikaru?" Yura asked

Kaname just gave her a simple nod in response

‘Somehow I feel like he is annoyed at something, am I just seeing it?’ Yura thought to herself

"Is Lady Yoshino also one of the king's concubines?" Yura asked

Hikaru suddenly showed up beside her as he said "How could you serve someone you don't even know, you're still dense as ever"

Yura was startled at the sudden response beside her then she turned to looked at Hikaru who had a grin on his face

Yura immediately bowed at him as she said "Your Highness"

Hikaru extended his hand and patted her head as he said "No need to be so polite towards me"

Yura looked up to him then she got back to her original position

‘Why do I have this sudden feeling of danger?’ Yura thought to herself

"Lady Yoshino is the king's wife, that means she's not just a lady of the household but she is also a queen" Hikaru stated

Yura was stunned at the sudden information that she was left speechless

Hikaru suddenly waved his hand in front of her face then chuckled upon seeing her expression

Hikaru laughed as he said "Do you seriously don't know that?"

Yura turned to look at Kaname but he just maintained a straight face while looking ahead

‘If Lady Yoshino is a queen and if the king is Kaname's father, doesn't that mean that Kaname is a prince?’ she thought

‘Didn't he tell me that he had brothers from different mothers also he is the eldest, that only means he is the next in line for the throne’ Yura thought with shock written all over her face

Just then, Hikaru's voice woke her up from all the analyzing she made

"I should get going now, you're going to watch me play right?" Hikaru stated

Yura smiled as she said "I will be watching the game Your Highness"

"Fair enough" Hikaru replied with a smile

Before the game started, the king stood up and convey a few words

"It is nice to see my sons playing together, whoever won this game can ask me for anything, then let the game begin" the king stated

The game started and somehow Prince Hikaru kept winning

‘He's quite good at this although I think Kaname is way more better seeing Kaname has the most well-built body among all of his brothers’ Yura thought to herself

Yura turned to look at Kaname but he still maintained a straight face while coldly looking at the game

‘Why do I feel like he is angry at something?, is he perhaps mad that he was not able to play with his brothers?’ Yura thought to herself

‘Seriously though I shouldn't be thinking about this, Kaname is actually a prince and I had the nerve to treat him so casually, I should really reflect on this’ she thought in despair

Yura gazed at him as she thought ‘Kaname has that dominant nature in him and if he was to be compared to this princes, they are not even near half of how great he is, it may be skills or looks Kaname has it all’

Yura giggled as she thought ‘Oh God you are so good to me, thank you so much for giving me such a great man’

In the end, Prince Hikaru won the archery game and he was greeted with a smile from the king

"Then Your Highness, can I ask for my prize now?" Hikaru stated as he kneeled before him

The king happily smiled as he said "Sure, what is it that you want?"

"Can I have Queen Yoshino's new servant Yura Izumi transferred as my servant?" Hikaru stated

"Huh?" Yura uttered as she looked at him in shock upon hearing the sudden words that came out

‘Did I heard it wrong?, I must probably have some hearing problems right?’ Yura thought to herself

"Why do you need my servant?" Yoshino asked

Hikaru smiled as he said "Your servant actually helped me when I fell at a tree so I wanted to repay her by letting her become my personal servant"

‘I didn't even helped you at all, I just asked if you were okay that time!’ Yura thought

Yura looked at Kaname and somehow she have finally confirmed that she was really not seeing things

‘The look in his eyes that are glaring at Hikaru tells me that he is going to kill him, he really is mad at something!’ Yura worriedly thought

‘He was even jealous at my own brother, how much more if he learned that Hikaru is Kei?!’ she thought with a sigh

"I suppose that would be an easy request, so why not?" the king stated

‘Alright, I'm doomed’ Yura thought to herself

"Your Majesty" Yoshino uttered

"What is it?" the king asked

"I needed this servant because she is the only one who could make a special herbal tea that can cure my headache" Yoshino stated

‘Yes My Queen, help this poor servant of yours’ Yura thought as she gazed at Yoshino as if she was her hope

"We can just let her teach your other servants on how to make it, then that wouldn't be a problem" the king stated

Yura immediately turned to look at Kaname who had a cold look on his face as she thought ‘I feel like crying, why is my luck so bad?’
