Personal Guard. ¦ Claude × Felix ¦

Chapter 3

Felix Pov:

Poor thing.

That was the first thought in my head while looking at this situation.

Cakes, Pudding, muffins and all kinds of sweets placed in front of the girl while the emperor completely ignored the fact that she was avoiding his gaze.

Seems like i have to act as the peacemaker here.

"I didn't know you couldn't talk, this is boring" His majesty says while heaving a sigh.

Is this gorgeous man processing his own words right now?

"I think she is a little scared, your majesty" I stated the obvious as he tends ignore the details.

"Is she now? That wasn't the case when she was biting random things and wandering around, Felix?"

He never lets go of something, does he?

"Athy can talk. "

Probably not liking how his majesty is treating her, she speaks up.

"Athy? Is that a pet name?" i ask as she nods.

"Now this is better." his majesty says as he looks down on her with slight smirk on face.

Agh, why does he have to look good even when he is bullying his own daughter?

This looks like a showdown between a dragon and a rabbit.

"Your majesty, please, her highness is still a little kid." I said as i really don't want to see a frown on her cute face.

"Her Highness? Felix, did i say you can call her that? " he looks at me with a glare.

Oh no, what is going on in his majesty's head right now?

"Since you seem to like her so much, go and sit there. "

"Pardon? Your majesty! how could I-"

"Felix." He cuts me off, again, as he glares at me. Sighing, i went and sat near the princess in a stiff manner.

Why do i feel like both of us are in trouble? I think i feel like a rabbit too now.

His majesty is really just -

I look at the princess and she looks at me. Both of us nod in silent aggreement that we are in trouble.

Claude, who was watching them, laughs lightly as he just finds Felix so cute.

Talking to a little kid like she is his age, that is just like him.

Meanwhile Felix and athy who is scared :  OoO

Scared of why is this man laughing...It was never for good anyway.

Thought felix and athy alike.

"You're not in trouble. " He seemed to sense our fear as he raised an eyebrow, amused at our reactions.

Felix maintained a smile while athy visibly relaxed. 'Guess my head is safe' athy reassured herself.

This stiff but somehow harmonious(?) atmosphere lasted for a while before the small girl looked tired.

"I think it's time for her nap, your majesty." The small girl was picked up by felix as he carefully placed her in his arms with all the gentlemess in the world, careful to control his strength.

Claude hummed in response as the red head walked out of the room, athy in his arms.

The blond man sitting in the plush couch was deep in thoughts, gazing fixedly at the fading back of the red head.
