I Swear, I Am Not A Cinderella |Book 2- The Fairytale Academy|

Chapter 4: |Still Haven't Given Him An Answer|

The moment I looked up, I was immediately locked into the fathom asure eyes of the young lad in elegant clothing. A fresh minty addictive scent came from his entire body at our close contact.

His eyes were deep like the dark mysterious underwater treasure hubs and exclusively accessing that if Maid Maria hadn't rushed to attend the door after me, I would have really gotten lost inside them.

"Prince Zenon Charming! You are finally here! "

Maria ignorantly interuppted the moment but, the minute she saw that I was still on Zeno's arm, she immediately quietened down with a chuckle.

A gesture which made both of us to pull away awkwardly, with flushed cheeks.

I looked at the young man with long, slender legs standing before the door looking like a blazing ray of a sun, casual and elegant as always.

He was dressed in white attire with a big blue jewel frilly neck tie. 

An overflowing thick cape modelled overcoat with vibrant gold borderlines was carelessly laid on his shoulders and they dragged right above his calves. Underneath laid tightly fiting rich white tunic embroided with golden patterns that perfectly revealed all his light muscles.

Even the fine silvery on his collor was perfectly exclipsed by his handsome face.

The morning glow of the sun filtered on his golden hair and the blue sky on the background perfectly complimented his blue irises that sparkled with interest as he gazed at me.

"Hi Zeno-kun.." I squeaked excitedly in a mushy voice.

"Hi, Anastasia-chan.."

Were the first words that came from his lips. And, they were deep, pleasant and magnetic, like the notes played on a violin string causing my heart to almost tremble at it's tenderness.

"It's great to-" He wanted to continue but for some reason, he stopped abruptly and he looked at me startled. "What happen to your hair?! "

I sighed. "You meet me after a long time and this is the first thing you say? "

Another silver haired young teenager with handsome armored solider clothing abruptly popped behind the prince.

"Nice to meet you Madame Rot- Aaaaaaaaaaaah! You cropped your hair! " Kuro-kun, Zeno's personal assistant and body guard commented as he tried reaching out his hand to greet me but, ended up responding just like his master.

"Ah, Yes. I am very very disappointed with my mistress, your highness.. Yes, you ask her..! How could she jus-"

Maid Maria continued rambling to Zeno and by the time he ordered Kuro to wait for him at the carriage, he had stepped into my house and sat on the giant sofas.

I sat in another corner looking guilty like a disobedient school kid getting complained by her teacher to the parents and meddled with my short crop hair as Maria puts forward more complains.

I clicked my tougue and blew my front bangs that hid my vision with a pout.

This is very unfair.

Why am I getting complained to him when I am clearly the elder one..??!
