Her Royal Average (Relentlezz41 Original)

Ch 9 - Hermit

Prince Ryluscious has another blind date meet up but the next day is bringing June home. Well, more like give her the honor of having her walk around the castle with you. But one thing at a time. Rylus and June both have things to get in order.

Enjoy.

~~~~~

Rylus in actuality really wanted to go to bed and skip to tomorrow to have his day one with June. Rather in the castle with her to put in the proper terms. Instead, another bouquet for a girl his age he had never met before due to his father's agreement. The other wanted to be pampered. What would this one be? All body and no brain? Another snob? Maybe a "nice girl" as one would say. Sure, as if no is ever prude around royalty. 

"William?" Called Rylus. 

"Yes M, Rylus?" He stopped himself and made good.

"Who is this girl? I got my real date for tomorrow. If she shows guess what you are forced to do by command treaty agreement of the Prince?"

The butler wiped the sweat off his forehead. "Sweet heavens have an angel help me."

"I hope that the Lord brings this red haired beauty home and meets the King and blows him away. Truly I hope all goes according to plan."

"And if not sire?"

"Well, Hmmm..." His eyes grew wide. "Then I will be in need of your sweet heavens to cover my livelihood and pray a tramp or bad woman doesn't come into my life."

William walked over to the counter. "A glass of water to cool down Rylus? I say you should no have to panic. Two generations ago your great grandfather married five times."

"Well that shall not be me my good man. As Captain of the S.S. Taiown I cannot have a tart or some whore on my ship. Are we clear."

He nodded. "Yes sir. Sorry sir." 

Nothing better at the moment than to find one of the many fine and comfortable chairs in the giant estate to gather thoughts. Prince Rylus was having a hard time thinking. His mind overflowing with all the thoughts that have been pounding into his ears the last minute or two alone. "Well, who is next?"

William made sure his attire and posture were in top shape and Rylus waiting for you is Miss. Rose. Do apologize for lacking the information needed."

Rylus chuckled. "It's okay. I hope this is the last one. Afterwards if it is anything like I dream than she is the last one. But I am a fair man." 

"Hope this is a no contest. I gave her the bouquet and she quietly nodded."

"Any words?"

"None... suspicion?"

"Could be William. I suspect a case of hermit. I'm going in I guess. Quicker the better and much easier. Carry on like ammunition at war." He took and breath and walked with pride in every step to the guest chambers. He opened the door and saw someone not his type but seemed to mean well. A pale girl with long black hair and brown eyes. She held the bouquet and blushed at first sight. "Hello there. I'm Prince Ryluscious Robin Taiown." He bowed.

She was in awe. "Hello your majesty. I'm, thankful."

"Pleasure is mine. What's your name?" He asked while taking a seat.

She hid behind the bouquet. "Rose."

I seemed rightfully so. Hermit. "I come in peace. Don't treat me as someone special. I'm just Ryluscious."

"Sorry." She squeaked. "Just, a little shy."

This was an awkward start but easier to deal with than a girl assuming she's better and deserves all of this. Quiet wasn't horrible. Not forward nor insulting. Limited frustration and less panic on using correct vocabulary. Though a difficult situation to approach. "So Rose can you tell me a bit about yourself?"

She poked her head out from the side. "Well, my father is a silversmith and I clean his shop everyday. If I'm not there I'm at my house making sure the house is in perfect shape."

I really wouldn't know too much. I mean look at all the staff here at the castle. I clean up after myself. I wonder how they're going to adjust and spend their time. I don't want to think that I am spoiled but why would a Princess or anyone royalty clean the whole estate? "What do you do outside of it?"

"I, sorry if it's different." She blushed. "I really enjoy horses."

He smiled. "Me too. What color?"

"Light brown. And thank your highness. Thanks for making this easy. It feels like I don't have to impress you."

Rylus chucked. "Just call me Ryluscious. I like it better." Which is alchemy but moving on.

"O-kay, Ryluscious." Shaken a little addressing a royal figure in blatant terms. "Tell me more about you. You're the exciting one."

She wants to talk about me. Got to give credit there. "Well Rose I have the ability to read and write due to my future position. Sometimes before I head to bed I read myself some good novels. Some about war, sometimes fairy tales, and a few are about strength. The ability to never withdraw. But I like to be active and learn. Love to play sports and see what's out there. See economic tragedy and solve problems within itself. One day I want to be the best ruler I can be. And it starts when I'm young."

"Oh wow. I could never dream."

Imagination lacks. "What do you dream about Rose?"

"A handsome Knight returning home to a town giving an ovation?"

"Did he slay a beast or a soldier?"

"A massive bear. Good hunting?" Pondering trying to finish her thoughts.

"Almost. Yet not quite. Let your mind wonder. The wonderland of things even not possible."

"Not sure if I follow." Now just confused.

Well a hermit and unimaginative. If it's not in front of her does she not understand? I feel bad. She's actually a very nice girl. Just, she does not have the connection.

~~~~~
I hate to say it but some dates are like that. Quiet and one leads the conversation. Not the best experience. For Rylus just not his type.

As always I hope all enjoyed, vote for more, comment freely, and as always have an awesome day because you guys are the best and make this happen. Any questions or concerns are welcome. Love you all.
