Chapter 34 – Danger, Danger (3)

Tired of Jad’s illusions and misunderstandings, Sienna ended the picnic.

“Shushu. How do I make Jad know my feelings?”

– I don’t think he’ll ever know for the rest of his life?

“You see it too, right?”

-Yes. He doesn’t have a clue like that. He’s an amazing person.

“I’m not the kind of person to watch anyone.”

At this point, even if she insisted on breaking up the marriage, he would have believed she was putting on a show to get his attention.

If she meets another man, he’ll think it’s to make him jealous.

“Does he think I’m a substitute dog? What made him be so sure about that?”

As she walked, pulling her hair out again, someone called Sienna.

“Princess!”

Arthur and Anna were waiting at the entrance to the garden.

“Is anyone injured?”

“No, fortunately. But the room…”

Anna hesitated to speak as if in a bit of trouble.

It seems that Pierre had a blast today.

Still, they might have finished tidying up her room before she came back, and the room was cleaner than she anticipated.

Of course, one of the chair legs was broken.

Sienna stared blankly at one of the broken legs.

She kept her eyes on it because it seemed like it was damaged on her behalf.

She skipped dinner and went to bed.

It was a night with a lot of thoughts for her.

After all, Sienna couldn’t sleep easily and she was only able to close her eyes at dawn.

There was no one to say anything to her, so she wanted to sleep in, but someone interrupted her sleep.

“Greetings, Princess.”

The day is ripe.

It was the young official she gave the plan to yesterday.

He introduced himself as Raffel.

Sienna asked with tightly knit eyebrows.

“What happened so far?”

“I’m here to see the Princess.”

“Me? I must have told you not to look for me!”

If it was regarding her plan, she had written it in great detail so that they wouldn’t have to ask her anything else.

[“Never look for me.”]

So she left a comment like that.

There were a lot of people who didn’t like her in the first place, so she thought they would like it more if she left them on their own.

However, Raffel, ruthlessly stuck in Sienna’s plan, fluttered his nostrils with excitement.

“This Raffel admired the wonderful ideas and designs of the Princess. How new and fantastic! It was a wonderful and beautiful project, just like the Princess.”

“Really?”

“Of course!”

His dark green eyes shimmered excessively, making her uncomfortable.

Tilting her back slightly, Sienna asked.

“If it’s such a great project, shouldn’t the officials take care of it? Why did you come to me?”

“It’s so new, but I’m here to meet you with the intention of having the Princess personally conduct a mid-term inspection while meeting with the officials.”

Raffel put his hands together and looked at Sienna. He was very much looking forward to it.

“Please lead us.”

“What if I don’t want to?”

“Yes?”

Raffel’s voice grew louder, perhaps because such an answer was not expected.

“I’m, I’m sorry.”

“It’s fine.”

“Can I ask why?”

“No.”

Again, at the cold reply, Raffel drooped like a dog in the rain.

However, he was a good official with strong tenacity and a strong professional spirit.

After a brief moment of disappointment, Raffel adjusted his slipping glasses and asked again.

“But, isn’t this what His Majesty has commanded the Princess?”

It was a timid rebellion with the King as the excuse.

“Hmm.”

Sienna looked at the energetic new official in front of her.

‘He’s quite good at dealing with power.’

He was so passionate that her heart was shaken a little.

It was also not bad news that the project she thought would be ignored and ridiculed went on as it was.

‘It would be really cool if it was made as it is.’

When Sienna got over 80 percent, Raffel pulled out his trump card.

“Today, I wanted to check the cotton candy artisan first.”

“…·cotton candy?”

“Yes. That’s what the princess drew five stars at!”

Confidence was oozing from his open palms.

“Hmm.”

At Raffel’s seduction, she eventually nodded her head.

***

Lured by ‘cotton candy’ in the past, Sienna accompanied Raffel and took the bait, ‘Band of Handsome Poets’, and then ‘Bough of the Melonne Forest’, also called the Forest of Temptation.

Sienna spent her next days frantically demonstrating in person, revising the plans, and admiring each one.

‘Is this really possible?’

She asked so many times, but remembering what this world was like, knowing almost nothing was impossible.

Sienna admired herself as she watched her envisioned painting come to life before her eyes.

As she was so busy, time flew by quickly and the festival was already approaching tomorrow.

Tired of being dragged by Raffel, she immersed her head in the warm water.

– Shushu. Please.

The abilities of the self-proclaimed great spirit, Shushu, were candle lighting and extinguishing, ambient sensing, and oxygen breathing apparatus.

With Shushu, it was possible to breathe freely even in the water.

Sienna would often do this for herself after she found out about it.

The bathtub was large enough and the water was pleasantly warm.

Being in the water like this, she felt comfortable as if she was lying on a cloud.

Of course, Shushu looked very proud, though.

Sienna glanced at it secretly and raised her thumb.

– Shushu is the best.

– Only with things like this?

-But it’s much more useful than lighting a candle.

– Shushu wants to do more cool things than trivial things like this.

– That later.

– Tsk.

Of course, she had no intention of promising anything like that in the future.

This is usually what Shushu wanted.

Create a gust of wind, change the weather, or conquer a country.

‘Why are you doing that? Useless.’

As she’d guessed from the time she signed the contract, there was a huge gap between Shushu and Sienna’s ambitions.

Leaving the bathroom, she prepared her bed and lay in it.

“Ah! Refreshing.”

After taking a bath, end the day with a breath of fresh air created by Shushu.

That’s exactly what Sienna wanted from Shushu.

Sienna lay down and she looked out the window for a long time.

Perhaps because of the clouds, it was a particularly dim night with moonlight.

“It should be sunny tomorrow.”

With such concern, she turned her head again.

“Good job. Good job.”

Shushu was doing a forward roll.

Sienna fell asleep while watching Shushu’s tricks.

At the time she thought it was the end of her day, like any other, when someone broke into her bedroom.

Click.

-Master!

At the same time as Shushu’s urgent cry, the cold night air hit her.

-Who’s there!

The sound of the footsteps suffocated her, and the sleep quickly fell away.

– Shushu. how many people

– Five!

She carefully reached her hand out of the blanket.

Just grab the bell on the side table and Winter Brown outside the door would run straight to her.

She could feel the cold iron on her fingertips.

‘Got it.’

Now she just has to move a little, a little bit.

But the fleeting hope was shattered in an instant.

“Shh.”

A man with a husky voice intercepted the servant bell from her.

“Stop it, if you want to live.”

Suddenly, a blade touched her neck.

The fluff hairs stood up against the cool touch.

The intruders skillfully subdued Sienna and covered her mouth with a handkerchief.

“Ooph!”

Instinctively, Sienna struggled to find that the handkerchief had drugs on it.

Even in her rapidly fading consciousness, she caught the intruder’s face.

– Shush….

The last time she called Shushu, she completely lost consciousness.

The next morning, the Princess Palace was turned upside down.

Anna and the maids, who had brought the toiletries, were astonished to see the empty bed.

They looked around the bathroom and dressing room, but Sienna wasn’t there.

“Kyaaaaaak!”

The sound of the always calm Anna’s screams filled the palace with tension.

What happened? So few people gathered one by one.

“The, the Princess is not here! The Princess is gone!”

Winter Brown and Arthur McKenzie’s faces turned white when they were just taking turns.

Winter, who doesn’t normally speak first, grabbed Anna and asked.

“What are you talking about! Clearly, no one came out the door!”

In response, his gaze naturally turned to the terrace and window.

If not the door……

It was the moment Winter was about to move forward, staring fiercely at the curtains that were blowing.

“I can’t see those deployed on the garden side!”

“What?”

Breathing heavily, the escort who had delivered the news rushed to his feet and grabbed his knee.

“What the hell is this…”

Anna and Arthur exchanged glances.

Everyone looked at them without a word.

No one dared to speak, but everyone guessed.

The Princess was kidnapped.

But who the hell? Why?

Due to the unexpected circumstances everyone stopped, their feet stuck to the floor.At that moment, someone pierced through the silence, pointing out the improbability.

“But at night, a barrier is working around the castle! It is impossible for most people to break in.”

“Then, did the Princess just leave? Skipping over the door and jumping down to the second floor terrace? It’s ridiculous.”

“How do you explain the disappearance of the garden escort?”

The servants raised their voices among themselves.

One of the maids, who was looking for any clues, raised her hand.

“I·….”

“Helen?”

“There’s a note like this.”

Helen handed Anna the note that was on the dressing table.

“This, this!”

Anna’s hand trembled as she grabbed the note.

Seeing her subtle expression, Arthur could not overcome the frustration and took the paper.

*… This, this is nonsense! There’s no way the Princess could have left something like this!”

Arthur strongly objected, but everyone hoped the message to be true.

Winter took the paper again and left the room.

“First of all, I have to report to His Majesty.”

[I’m sorry for disappearing so suddenly.His Majesty has entrusted me with an important task, but in the end, I was not able to stand the pressure.I’m still afraid to go out in front of people.I cannot undermine the dignity of the royal family because I am so lacking.I will receive the punishment sweetly later.Please, please don’t look for this ugly daughter.”]

Reading the brief note, Aden touched his forehead.

“Oh my God. Sienna’s handwriting is clear. Winter, what do you think?”

“It’s definitely strange looking at the recent behavior of the Princess. But people don’t change very well. Above all, I hope the contents are true.”

“Is there any possibility of kidnapping?”

“There’s something suspicious about it.”

“Something suspicious?”

“The people guarding the garden are gone.”

“Disappeared? No body found?”

“Yes.”

“Obviously strange.”

Aden pounded the desk quickly without realizing it.

“So, where is Sienna now?”

“Forgive me. We haven’t been able to find her yet. We’re checking to see if there’s anything wrong with the barrier. We’ll report it as soon as we get any news.”

“Whether it’s a runaway or kidnapping, set up a search party right away.”

“I’ll take the orders.”

“However, this should be handled secretly.”

“Yes, I know.”

The Princess of a country has disappeared.

From a castle with a tight barrier.

Whether she had been kidnapped or ran away, it was difficult to know either way.
