Why Did I Become the Villainess?-Chapter 204 - A Night With Him

I sigh, but I remain on my back. "I apologize, your highness. I just want to check if you're okay. Don't worry. I'll be leaving immediately."

I didn't wait for him to respond, and I just immediately fled away. But Prince Fraser immediately stops me.

"Csille, wait. Since you're here. Why don't you come insides first."

I looked back, and I almost ran to him when I saw his eyes.

It's been days. It's been days when I saw him, and I dearly miss him. If not because I knew he wouldn't like it, I would have run towards him and hug him tightly.

I shake my head at Prince Fraser. Although I really want to have a conversation with him, I cannot take the risk. I'm afraid that if I stay with him, I won't stop myself from having feelings for him.

"Your highness, I'm sorry, but I guess I'll just have to decline. I'm just checking on you, and now I see that you're doing okay. I need to go. It's also late already."

Prince Fraser looks outside and frowns. "It's already late, and you're still outside? Come inside first."

I tried to decline him again, but he was insistent. He drags me inside his room without waiting for me to respond to him.

And now I am inside his room, covered in his blankets because he sees me trembling because of cold.

"Do you want some drink? Tea or milk?"

I look at him and shake my head. What the heck is happening? Why am I inside Prince Fraser's room?

I only want to check on him and leave immediately, but why am I inside his room? And now he is offering me drinks? I don't understand. Isn't he supposed to distance himself from me? He should be mad at me for sneakily coming here. But why isn't he mad?

"Uhm, your highness, I think it's best for me to leave your room now. I don't think it's a good idea to be here."

Prince Fraser stares at me for a couple of seconds before he shakes his head. "It's already late. Sir Farren is the only one who holds the key to this building aside from Principal Germund."

I frown. What does he mean?

"It means the whole building was locked already. So, there's no way you can get out of this place tonight."

My eyes immediately widened when I heard what he said. I was locked inside a building with Prince Fraser?

No! It cannot be!

I immediately leave his room and rush towards the entrance. My jaw dropped when I realized that I was really locked up in this building.

I shook my head and tried to shake the gate to get people's attention, but someone caught my arms.

"Don't. You'll be in trouble if someone realizes that you sneak in here. Sir Farren was given permission by Principal Germund to check on me. But aside from him and the people who brought me food, everyone else is prohibited from coming here. If people find out you sneak here, you will be in trouble. That is against the rules of the school. What do you think will happen to you after?"

I shivered when I realized what would happen after. If Principal Germund found out about this, I'm sure he'll kick me out of the school.

The Alderrdeen School of Knowledge is very strict with its rules. Anyone who finds out disobeying it will be punished. And because Prince Fraser's confinement is a serious issue, I bet my punishment will be severe too.

I put my hand down and looked at Prince Fraser. "What will I do?"

"You have no other choice but to come with me, or do you want to risk getting kicked out here? Worst, people might say something about you sneaking out my room."

Getting kicked out is already a terrible idea. However, being labeled as someone who is eager to see her lover is quite inappropriate in this world. Especially, women are expected to be reserved and aloof around guys.

I sigh. "I'll come with you."

I would rather spend a night here than risk getting kicked out of School. I cannot get kicked out from Alderrdeen because it will greatly affect the storyline.

Just deal with it for tonight, Ysavel.

The two of us walk back to his room in silence. He then offered me some drink again, which I gladly accepted.

I pretended that I was busy drinking just to avoid him. However, it seems like Prince Fraser took the wrong medicine today because he's been staring at me for a couple of minutes now.

"I heard from Sir Farren what happened."

I almost choke on my drink at his sudden words. I wipe my mouth and look at him. "What did he tell you?"

"He told me that you ask for help from Ruler Laird, and you also enticed the public to turn to Brandr. Why did you do that, Csille?"

I put the glass of milk down before I look at him. Why does it sound like he doesn't appreciate what we did for him? He sounds like he is reprimanding me for what we did.

"Why did I do what?"

Prince Fraser shakes his head. "You shouldn't have involved yourself or Ruler Laird. I believe Principal Germund would let the truth out."

I scoff at his words. I couldn't believe this. After all, we did for him, all we got is this? Doesn't he even appreciate everything we did for him?

"You expect Principal Germund to be fair? Your highness, we already talked to Principal Germund, and he told us that his hand is tied. Do you know that the Ingvar family is already on their way to Alderrdeen? Do you know what will happen if they arrive here? They will pressure Principal Germund to pass the case to the Persecutor Department. Do I need to tell you what will happen next if they do that?"

He just shook his head at me. "Do you think Principal Germund would let anyone pressure him? The Ingvar family is only a small noble family from the Ouqeaseon Kingdom. Do you think he will be threatened with them?"

I sigh. "Fraser, have you forgotten how much power the people have? Most students here are criticizing you before because of false rumors. If the Ingvar family used that as their advantage. Do you think Principal Germund can do something about it? Without people, he doesn't have power. You should know that better than I."

Prince Fraser stares at me before he sighs. "I was just worried about you. You have gone against Brandr and his friends. I'm just afraid they will do something to harm you."

I was about to refute, but the words got stuck in my throat when I heard what he said.

"Please don't misunderstand Csille. I really appreciate what you did for me. However, I don't wish for you to risk your safety just for my sake." He then stands up from his seat. "It's late. You better rest already."

He then walked towards the bed and took a pillow. "There's only one bed here. I'll just sleep on the couch. You sleep on the bed."

I also stand up and stare at his back. "Fraser, why?"

He paused and looked back at me. "What do you mean why, Csille?"

I look straight into his eyes. "Why did you do that? You could just let him go. You could just pretend that you didn't hear anything. So, why? Why did you knock him off?"

Prince Fraser smiled at me. "You are my fiancée, Csille. You are my future Queen. How can I bear to hear other people insult you like that?"

My eyes widened when I heard his words. That! Isn't that the same words he told me in my dream?

"Don't be sorry. I never regretted what I did. I still believe that I did the right thing, and if I turn back in time, I will do it again. I will never let anyone insult you like that. You are my fiancée, my future Queen. How can I bear to hear other people insult you like that?"

"Do you feel guilty?" He shakes his head. "Don't be. I never regretted what I did. I still believe that I did the right thing, and if I turn back in time, I will do it again. I will never let anyone insult you like that."

It's the same. He said the words he told me in my dreams. I feel a tear roll down my cheeks. I immediately turn my back and wipe it.

I can feel my heart beating wildly because of what he said.

This is bad. I knew it! Being with him as his nineteen year old self is too much for my heart to take.

I didn't respond to his words and just rushed to his bed and covered myself with his blanket. I almost groan in satisfaction when I smell his scent on his blanket.

Dayum! Even his scent makes my heart beats wildly. How can I resist his charms?

It's a good thing Prince Fraser didn't mind when I didn't respond to his words. He just turned off the lights and walked to the couch.

"Good night, Csille."

I bite my lower lip and stop the smile that is starting to show on my face.

This is really bad. I'm really in trouble.

________________________________

I didn't realize I had fallen asleep after forcing the giddy feeling inside of me. I woke up hearing Prince Fraser's voice.

I opened my eyes and found him staring at me. He is sitting on the edge of the bed and staring intently at me. "It's a good thing you're awake. The personnel of Principal Germund will arrive any moment now. I suggest you hide inside the bathroom first."

I immediately take my things with me and hide inside his bathroom. A few minutes had passed when I heard the door open, and I heard Prince Fraser is talking to someone.

I lean my head on the wall of his bathroom and close my eyes. Why does this scene look awfully familiar?

It's like in the movies when the male lead is almost caught by the female lead cheating, and the third party is hiding in his room. Afraid that the female lead will see her.

The only difference is that I am not his female lead. Also, it's not the female lead who arrived.

After a few minutes, I heard the door of his room closed, and Prince Fraser opened the door of his bathroom.

"He already left. You can now get out of the bathroom. They just gave me my breakfast. Come here, let's have some breakfast." He gently said to me.

Right at that moment, I feel the whole world suddenly turn slow-mo. He even has shining background behind him.

I just look at Prince Fraser with a confused look. What is happening? Why did it suddenly look like those typical romance series where the female lead falls in love with the male lead?

"Csille?"

I gently shake my head and walk out of the bathroom.

It was probably because I'm still not in the right mind. I just woke up. That's why I probably see things.

I look at the table where his breakfast is prepared. I look at him and frown. How can we have breakfast if it's only for one person? Even the utensils are for one person only.

Prince Fraser sat on the chair and pulled another chair for me to sit. "Come here, let's eat breakfast. Sir Farren will also arrive here probably half an hour after." He gestured his hand on the vacant chair.

I shake my head at him. "Your highness, you can go again and eat that. I can eat in the cafeteria. Don't mind me."

Prince Fraser stands up and drags me to sit beside him. He took the fork and the knife and started to swirl the pasta on the fork. He then offered the fork to me. "Eat."

I look at his face and sigh. I'm sure he wouldn't let me off even if I refused to eat. So, I just eat the pasta.

We finished the breakfast in a slow manner. He fed me his breakfast, and he even helped me drink his juice.

I feel like we are some newlywed couple who just had their first breakfast after their wedding.

I was about to say something when I suddenly heard someone knock on the door.. I didn't have enough time to hide because the door suddenly opened.
