My New Life

CHAPTER 7

AMMELIAS POV

After the dance, I helped myself with some sweets to lessen my stress. I have been overthinking my future. At least the first capture target didn't seem to hate me and I don't think brother will kill me. So all that's left is the second capture target and the heroine but I have no idea what they look like.

'Oh yeah, there were still the hidden capture target. Hooray!' note the sarcasm.

If I remember correctly, I was supposed to have an adopted brother but I don't know when he'll arrive and the other one is the Crown Princes little brother who I see is coming to the sweets table.

'Wait he's looking directly at my direction. I don't remember doing something to earn his interest.'

"Are you, brothers fiancée?" The second prince asked once he as sitting in front of me.

"That is what I was told but it have not been declared official yet." I answered, moving on from my shock from this straightforward boy.

"Do you love my brother?"

'Eh? What's with his questions?'

"No I do not." I said after thinking of the better option to say.

"Okay, good. I would hate it if brother was engaged to a girl who's head over heels for him even though they just met recently."

Oh, this boy makes me nervous. Is he interrogating me for his brother? He's too mature and he is 3-year old! The kids in this world are just abnormal. They would put the kids in my past life to shame.

Sure, I guess I can match up with them since I am 18-year old mentally but this boy is intimidating and his eyes aren't really helping.

His eyes are really pretty and unique. I want to exchange it with my eyes. I was upset when my eyes only has a single color when brother has two but I reasoned with myself that it matches with my hair but his eyes are too mesmerizing. Its like he can see things that only he can see.

"What pretty eyes." I muttered unconsciously while still looking at his eyes.

"Wha" The second prince blushed and lost his composure.

'Oh, did I say that out loud.'

"Forgive me. I didnt mean to offend Your Highness but your eyes are really unique." I tried to smile innocently because I forgot that even if he is just a hidden capture target, he is still a capture target. He could kill me anytime.

"No, it is alright. No one ever said my eyes were unique." The prince replied once he got his composure back but his ears are still red. "People, usually say it is unusual, weird or disgusting since they have never seen light blue eyes with purple since purple was a rare color and only mother have it." He said while smiling brightly at me.

Hes face is cute. I though he was supposed to be the stoic kind of prince but his eyes, oh his eyes are shining brightly and he has a wide smile on his face. He looks like a 3-year old now.

Before we could continue talking, the door opened and a flushed girl rushed in.

"Estella Nicholls, daughter of the Baron Johanson Nicholls and step-daughter of the Baroness Nicholette Nicholls."

'Do they really have to announce that? Or were they ordered to, that is too humiliating.' I thought when the guards announce that she was the step-daughter of the first wife of the baron.

Looking around, many nobles giggled with a sinister looks in their eyes while judgingly looking at her.

"G... Greeting Your Majesty of the Imperial Palace." The girl greeted while breathing heavily in front of the king and queen.
