Chapter - 14

The next day, both Leo and Flora were nervous because of the question she asked him last night. Kings were in the royal meeting while She got up late and asked Mr. Blurry about when the meeting will be over. He told him that after the meeting officials will leave the royal palace and the kings asked her to join them for lunch. She went to her room to get ready. When she came down she saw officials leaving, Leo and Dark both greeted her, and she already decided to act like nothing happened last night and thought if Leo wants to give the answers then he will talk to her. 

Now they sat for lunch, Leo asked her if she slept well last night, and she nodded without looking at him. He further told her that after lunch he will give his answer, Flora purposely asked "Answer for what?" and he teases her saying if she doesn't remember it or if she wants to recall it again with actions. 

Dark interrupts them and told him to eat something as his mouth is running way too much, only then Mr. Blurry came and handed over a device to Flora. She asked about it,  Dark told her that it was a type of secret message, click the button on the bottom of the device and you can read the message. 

"How do you know it's a secret?", asked Flora, to which he replied because of its colour. If the device is white then it's supposed to be normal and if it's green then it's secret and a secret message can only be seen by the one to whom it is sent. 

"But who send this", Leo asked Mr. Blurry. He replied that King Dragon sent this from Drake Galaxy. Both the kings get shocked, she pressed the button and read the message. As soon as she read it, she laughed, making everyone confused. Leo and Dark were curious to know about the matter and asked her, she teased them "Maybe the elders are the rude ones, your younger brother is so sweet and respectful". Both of them got jealous seeing her complimenting him and out of curiosity, Dark asked her "Can I have the honour to know those sweet and respectful words?" 

She told them that they took her to their galaxies with force and even used their powers on her, but King Dragon invited me to his galaxy with such a respectful manner by saying "your highness, it's my pleasure to have you in my galaxy with the order of chief. You can take your time, but I am looking forward to your positive response". She further said that this is such a sweet invitation to refuse, so she is going to the Drake Galaxy.

"What!" Leo and Dark screamed together in surprise. Leo told her that she can't go like this as her powers are not fully developed, dark also agreed to it and told her that currently, she needs to stay in Dark Galaxy only.

 "I don't remember asking permission from you?" said Flora and told them that it is the chief's order, so she can't do anything, so be quiet and eat.

"By the way, how did you know that King Dragon is our younger brother?" asked Leo in suspicion. Now Flora gets tensed as they didn't tell her, and she can't tell them that she knew it all from the chief. She was thinking about how to get out of this and suddenly remembered something. She told him that he forgot, but he told her about his brothers in the adobe. 

Leo remembered it and teased her that she still remembered that day. She gets nervous and tells him to be quiet and have his food. After lunch, Flora was about to leave, but Leo held her hand and asked her to come with him. She refuses as she doesn't want the answer now, but he insists that he wants to tell the answer at any cost. Dark tried to interrupt and held her hand but suddenly heard a voice from back "King Dark!! I AM BACK". Everyone looked back except for him as he somehow recognized the voice and was standing in shock.

A girl with medium hair and a black short dress with a bold look runs towards Dark, first greets him and then hugs him, leaving everyone shocked. Mr. Blurry quickly pushed her away from Dark as he was about to blast with anger. She greeted King Leo and looked at Flora with suspicion, and before she could ask, Flora immediately answered her "Hi I'm the Highness of Andromeda Galaxy". 

"Hmm, I sort of heard about you. You are living in the Shadow Palace, right?", reacts the girl, "Greetings highness, I am Lucy, the princess of Bert Planet in Shadow Galaxy". 

Now Flora got an excuse to stay and avoid Leo's confession, so she grabbed Lucy's hand and told her they needed to talk and left. Dark goes after them, saying there is no need to talk, but they ignore him. When everyone was going, Leo couldn't stay, so he also followed them. Flora made her sit and asked her to tell something more about herself, Lucy told her that Bert planet is the 2nd biggest planet in Shadow Galaxy after Shadow Planet and most of the trade goes between both planets. In such a trade meeting she first saw King Dark and that was her love at first sight. "I think you should check your eyes", reacted Flora, Dark gave her a look and Lucy told her to not say this about his love and looked at Dark with eyes full of love.

"See I suggest you to not fall in love just by seeing the looks, you should also know their nature", said Flora. "I didn't love him just for his looks""Then how did you made this mistake?""That day he fought with my father and made me fall in love""See that's what I want to tell you, he always fights with others and even with your father. Then also you love him?" "You don't know, my father didn't listen to anyone and always did what he wanted, but that day I saw him following everything King Dark told him. Even when he forced me to get married to just anyone, then I told him that I will marry King Dark and that was the first time we both were on the same page. He told me to marry in the royal family one needs to complete compulsory research on Earth, so I directly went to King Dark, confessed to him, and told him to wait for me until I come back from Earth", explained Lucy.

Leo interrupted their conversation and asked her how she confessed to him, Flora gave him a look as  it was something he should not ask at that point because she might have been rejected by his cruel brother. But Lucy answered enthusiastically that she confessed to him in front of the whole palace.

"That is what you did wrong", told Flora.

"Why?", asked Lucy and Leo together.

 Flora clarifies that two things should not be done in public; 'Fight and Confess' because both of these are full of emotions that connects you with your partner, and showing it in public can make them uncomfortable. 

Leo said, but girls on earth like such confessions, and Lucy also put his point forward to which Flora nodded and said that confession is not entirely public it's just among their close friends or family but as Lucy did it in front of the whole palace makes it intolerable for Dark as he can't accept it nor reject it.

Lucy thinks about it and apologizes to Dark and assures him that her next confession will not be public. "No need", reacted Dark but Flora told her to ignore him. Leo asked Lucy about what type of confession she liked as Dark can prepare for it. Dark immediately reacts and tells him that he will do such things for only one person and that person is...., Leo interrupted him and said that person is Princess Lucy. To cover it he also told that she is the first one to confess to Dark.

Leo told her that she seems close to Dark and they might have to talk as well so he should leave and give them some quality time. Dark shook his head so hard to make him stay but Leo took Flora and left. 

He took Flora to his room and locked the room, she reacts to what he is doing and he make her sit and told her that now he will answer that question, she gets nervous and tries to leave by telling him that he can take his time but he pulled her closer and block her on the chair with his hands. He moves forward to her, she gets nervous with his every move and he whispers softly in her ears "You asked me if I like you, to be specific I love you" and looked directly into her eyes. It was a first-ever confession to her and her heart was about to explode and she nervously pushed him away and ran. She was struggling to open the lock, he comes from back and tries to unlock it and their fingers touch making her face redden, he smiles and says that she can take her time but gives him a reply before leaving for Drake Galaxy and opens the door for her. She runs away at full speed and he smiled looking at her.

On other hand, Dark was about to leave the room but Lucy held his hand and pulled him but his leg slipped and accidentally fell on her. When he tried to get up she pulled him closer and said "No need to get this impatience, wait for my confession. Then you will have many chances". He gets nervous and quickly gets up and leaves from the room. She blushed after he leaves and looked outside and feels that even nature is blushing!
