It's In The Stars ( Yandere Prince x Reader )

Chapter 29: Money's Worth

As the carriage stopped you and Aileen jumped out and grabbed your bags. You both were excited to see Elina and see what her life was like. When the carriage started moving away you both ran to the front doors of the palace and waited to be let in. It was nice outside so the two of you didn't mind waiting, but it didn't take long for someone to come to the doors. A butler, who was smiling, opened the door for you.

   " Hello! You two must be Queen Aileen and Y/n from Madrathia. "

   " Yes, we are! We are here to see Elina. "

   " Please come in. She will meet you both in the dining room. "

   " Thank you. " Aileen said. 

The butler opened the door wider for us and we walked inside. The palace wasn't as big as Aileen's but it was a perfect size. The both of you stood in the dining room and waited for someone to come. You were excited to see Elina and glad to be away from Quinn. 

   " Aileen, Y/n! "

The doors were pushed open and Elina stood in the doorway, smiling at your two figures. Instead of a maid's dress, she was wearing a beautiful gown with jewelry wrapped around her neck and wrists. 

   " Elina! "

You ran to hug her and she welcomed the hug. Aileen joined in on the hug and it was warm. You were happy to be with Elina again, you had missed her company at the palace. 

   " I'm so glad you guys could come! I was worried you two wouldn't accept my invitation. "

   " Why wouldn't we, Elina? " You said, pulling away from her hug.

   " I just...I heard how King Francis was acting and I feared you two wouldn't be able to make it due to him not allowing you. "

   " We were able to thankfully. Let's not talk about it right now, let's go and spend some time together before we leave tomorrow. " Aileen said.

   " Tomorrow? I thought you two would stay for the rest of the week. "

   " Francis doesn't like the idea of me being away for so long. We are to return tomorrow. "

   " I see...well, let's go get you both settled into your rooms! "

( Back at Madrathia )

   ' Why is she so annoying?'

Quinn rubbed his temples as the girl in his office kept touching and messing with his stuff. He didn't like how she touched everything. He knew at one point she would break something and he didn't enjoy it when she finally did break one of his statues.

   " Oops. "

   " Princess Larissa, please sit down. You're touching everything and you have just broken one of my statues. "

   " I'm sorry! I didn't mean to! I can buy you a new one! "

   " That's not the point Lady Larissa. You must realize that the statue you just broke costs a lot of money. And it was very valuable. "

   " So? I can just buy another one for you. "

   " You don't understand the price of money, do you? "

   " What are you talking about? I know what prices are and how much coins are. "

   " Alright, let me ask you this. That statue was 275,905 yen. What do you think of that price? "

   " That's a small price! I don't see what the big deal is about that much money. That's basically nothing. "

   " It's nothing to sneeze at. It was an antique statue. There were only ten made in the region. "

   " And? "

   ' I'm already tired of this woman. But I promised myself I wouldn't hit her. And I'm not going to hit her. '

Quinn set his pencil down and excused himself from the room. Larissa started following him and she was commenting on the castle as a whole. She continued to mention how she didn't like the constant gold and red colors because they were worn out colors, and how she would change them. 

   " And all of these roses, they need to go. We should put some different flowers in the castle like sunflowers or tulips. We should also get some shades for the windows, all of this light can give me a headache-"

   " Princess Larissa. " Quinn said in a stern tone.

Quinn turned around and grabbed her arms. He grabbed them, but not to the point he would leave a bruise. He was tired and annoyed of hearing her complain about his home. He himself wanted to change it but it wasn't the most important thing on his list. 

   " I understand your concerns about the castles...decorations but if you will please excuse me, I have some personal matters to attend to. I must go alone. "

Larissa only blushed at the fact that his hands were on her arms. She thought she had finally made progress. Larissa nodded her head and Quinn let out a sigh of relief and let go of her. He walked away from her blushing form and started walking to the doctors. There was something he needed, and he had finally read enough on it to be able to make it.

   ' I've finally got somewhere with him! And it's only the first day! ' Larissa cheered in her head.
