Chapter 24: Chapter 021 ( The Forest Healer )
" But don't usually each of the Crown Prince and Princess have their own private room? In fact, sometimes there are those who are in different palaces, " said Monna, still not accepting the results of the verdict.
" Yes. But I chose to change the habit, " Belhart replied which successfully surprised Monna.
" What? " Monna stared at Belhart helplessly.
" I have a spacious room and more than enough for the two of us. Besides, I usually rarely stay in the room other than bedtime. Therefore, you will definitely feel comfortable and at ease with this condition. Isn't it natural for them to share their room together as a husband and wife? " Belhart reversed Monna's words very precisely. So that it made Monna stunned on the spot.
Comfortable and free? A room with a man who would kill his own wife? Monna gently massaged her forehead which suddenly felt heavy. Dan Belhart, returned to continue his argument.
" Besides, I won't touch you according to my promise. So you don't need to worry, " continued Belhart again as he went to his bed to sleep peacefully and turned his back to Cattarina without saying anything else.
Monna took that quite seriously.
What's with that attitude? Needless to say, Monna already knew that Belhart would never dare or intend to touch her. But the problem now, is definitely not that !!
Monna looked at Belhart's back in disbelief. She then gave up.
It seems, she has to start getting used to everything that started out of line with her dreams in the past. There was only one thing he could do at the moment. Accept this with an open mind. And anticipate what might happen.
Maybe this is only temporary. So be patient, Monna thought.
She stretched out on the bed, took the blanket, then went to sleep. Until the next morning, the news about the bodyguard that had been assigned to her and shocked her.
She looked at the man who had now become her bodyguard with a difficult expression.
" So... you will be my bodyguard starting today? " Cattarina asked Neil seriously, resolving her heart to remain calm.
Neil showed respect and said yes.
" Yes, Your Majesty. " Neil Reply.
Cattarina looked at him disinterestedly.
"Alright then. Since this has already been decided, I will only convey a few things for you to need to know. " Monna said calmly.
" Yes, I will try to undertake it,"
" First, you may escort me well as ordered. But when later you have things you need to do, you may immediately leave your job and go to do your other tasks, "
" Secondly, it doesn't matter what personal bodyguard rules the empire usually has. I want you to guarantee yourself more than enough rest time. What the hell with all the rules about 24 hour guard. You have to have the same amount of sleep and quite like everyone else. " Monna looked at Neil confidently.
And as long as Cattarina said, Neil continued to listen.
" And lastly, " Monna thought for a moment what she wanted to emphasize.
Then quickly he said, " Have you had breakfast? How about we have morning tea for a moment? " bargained Monna.
There was a hint of doubt in Neil's eyes. But he still gave a good response.
" Yes, Your Majesty. " Neil said.

And some time after.
" How? Is sweet enough? " Monna asked Neil during their tea time together in the palace garden.
In order to build a familiarity that might be useful in the future, of course, some small concerns are impossible to ignore.
Even so, Barron Neil remained as stiff as ever. But seeing the man sink into his drink comfortably, it made Monna see some progress.
To hell with the possibility of what will happen in the future, if the man later will make it difficult for him as in his dream. As long as Barron Neil was nice to her and didn't disturb her calm, Monna would still treat him well.
Including the Crown Prince of course.
Although now Monna doesn't know what future awaits her, Monna still hopes that her good efforts will make a little difference. Whether in the attitude of everyone or their actions for the whole family.
Anyway, as long as Monna made Cattarina behave well, wouldn't anyone definitely not bother her ?!

But when Monna thinks her life will be safe for the time being, an unexpected event awaits her.
An aide just reported a rather shocking thing.
" Princess, this is bad! His Highness the Crown Prince has just returned from hunting, and he was currently injured. We must meet him immediately, " exclaimed the aide in quite a panic and dismay.
Monna, who was braiding her hair with the lady, rushed out and met the aide.
" Your Majesty is injured? How can? " Monna asked in disbelief.
The strongest Warlord in the kingdom was injured by hunting, isn't this very hard to believe?
" I don't know, my lady. But reportedly, His Majesty was distracted while hunting, when suddenly a wild animal attacked him. Luckily, in the forest, there was a healer who helped. Otherwise, His Majesty will definitely be more serious than this. "
The aide explained in detail the information he got. While jogging together with Cattarina, they went to the Crown Prince's place followed by her maid and Neil who was on guard outside her room.
But when Monna heard her aide's last few sentences, something serious enough bothered her.
She stopped in her tracks and looked at her adjutant quite seriously. Ignoring Neil's series of confused looks, Monna asked the aide again.
" What did you say? A physician in the forest helping The Majesty? " Monna asked in a panic.
" Yes, Your Majesty ... "
There was a crowd of people heading towards them. And when Monna and all her maids and knights saw them, they stared at the crowd quickly.
" Princess, look! It is His Majesty the Crown Prince! " shouted one of the maids, mentioning what she saw.
" That's right, princess. His Majesty returned supported by someone. It looks like he was really injured quite seriously, " said others who also commented.
