Dangerous loyalty『Tartaglia x MR』

LVII

ᴍᴇᴇᴛɪɴɢ ᴘɪᴇʀʀᴏ

Not long after finding Dainsleif, the group returned home from the unexpectedly easy trip, however...There was one thing M/n didn't account for when he returned with his current member of the Harem. Dainsleif followed him just as much as Tartaglia once did.
"Uhh, Dain?"

"Yes, your majesty?"

"You don't have to follow me, you know that right? Get to know the lay of the palace, and make nice with the other members you haven't met yet. I'm sure you'll get along nicely with Hibiki and Baizhu since they're very calm. Tread carefully when it comes to Dottore, I may have a leash on him but he's still unpredictable."M/n warns gently assuming that would get the tall blondie to venture off but instead Dain stands his ground, saying that he could wander around later but now was his duty to protect.
This man is just as stubborn as Tartaglia!! Is this why they started to get along last week!?
M/n sighs heavily, this could explain why Dainsleif has practically taken over the guard ship from Tartaglia.
"Ugh, fine but don't–Oof!"M/n, while talking runs into something, effectively biting his tongue and nearly falling back. Dainsleif was quick enough to keep M/n from falling and quickly turns his attention to the person the prince bumped into.

His eyes widen at the man in front of them, M/n was too busy whining over his now injured tongue but takes notice of the shift in the mood of the area. He too looks up to be faced with the person he was planning on meeting after Capitano.

"I greet the first snow of Snezhnaya. Sorry for bumping into you my prince. Are you alright–"

"Keep your filthy hands away from his Majesty!"Dainsleif angrily yells while slapping the butler's hand away and placing himself in front of M/n.
Did this docile wolf just bare his teeth? Ooh~ interesting..So that means this man was the traitor Dainsleif told me all about.
"You need to be educated in the ways of Snezhnaya–"

"You dare stand at level with me, Pierro? You're quick to educate others and yet you forget yourself, Kneel dog."Pierro immediately drops to his knee as M/n demands.
"Did you forget that traitors of their nation must fully kneel to their new masters? Tsk and you dare to speak of education! Don't make me laugh. Anyway, Dainsleif–"M/n holds out his hand for the blondie to take, it didn't even take a second before Dainsleif took the hand held out to him.
"Escort me to my room, Pierro follow behind quickly."

❄️❄️❄️

M/n sat down on his lounge couch sipping tea as Pierro stood across from him. Tartaglia was confused and looked to Dainsleif for an answer but not even the twilight sword knew what the prince had in mind for the Khaenrian mage.
"So is it true that you came here right after Khaenri'ah's fall?"

"...."

"Pierro I asked a question and I don't fancy repeating myself..."The room slowly starts to freeze, M/n was quick with losing his temper with the older butler.
"Yes, your majesty."

"See, that wasn't so hard! Hehe, for the strongest Harbinger you're weak... truly weak. You abandoned your home and for what? A stupid cunt? That's what I thought at first but it wasn't for the Tsaritsa, then who?"Pierro clenches his jaw while listening to M/n.
"My father was a very handsome man, but a lowly mage turned butler could never be in such a position to gain his attention."M/n taunted, his tone snarky as possible while he spoke. The prince wanted to push the old man to a limit.
"So silly, a man that betrayed his nation thought he could lay with the king~"M/n stood from his seat and strides over to the butler with his teacup in hand.
"My father probably loathes you."

"Your majesty–"M/n pushes onto the tips of his toes and pours the rest of the tea over Pierro's head, smirking as the tea drops down his face.
"Pathetic. Even I know when something or someone is out of my league...Now get the fuck out of my room mutt. The sight of you gives me indigestion."There was a dangerous glare in M/n's beautiful eyes that not even Pierro could deny. The look in M/n's eyes was that of a madman on a mission and that scared Pierro more than anything...
