William pov

The last time when she saved me from the chandelier! It was an accident planned by myself. So, I could force the snakes hiding in the dark to come out to try to find their allies. But today\'s accident was not that simple one. 

Others would think that it was an attack on the royal family. But if looked carefully, Abigail was the only one that was standing beneath the chandelier. If it would have fallen, only she would have lost her life. We would have only got some injuries here and there.

I would have taken it as a coincidence if it would have been the first time, but the attacks of wolves and the falling of the ferris wheel were other incidents that happened recently and I did not believe in so many coincidences at once.

"Don\'t tell me you didn\'t even notice?" I asked incredulously at her. She was so sharp normally when it comes to keeping an eye on or sparring. I would not doubt that she would be able to win against Kirian or Theodore too.

"I never thought that someone would want to hurt me. Since I have nothing worth jealousy or I did not have a feud against anyone." she replied with surety. But I knew there was someone behind her.

But I knew she was telling the truth. Rather than practicing all day, she spent her rest of the time in the library. She only came out when it was dinner time. There she also just eats and leaves. Though she was gone for two days. She did not meet anyone or did something that offend others.

"I think you are thinking too much about it, your highness. Maybe it is just a coincidence. Now if you allow me, my father must be looking for me." she replied standing up. Her eyes were flustered and I tilted my head.

Only then did I notice the proximity we were sharing. And the way I was looking at her, I even forgot to follow my pretense for a while.

"You may go. By the way, tomorrow is your entrance exam, right?" she nodded looking at me as i stood up lazily and passed her a seductive smile that i have practiced ages.

"Make sure to pass it, little bird. Or you would not be able to follow me. By the way, the academy starts two days after the entrance exam, so you need not live here. You can start serving me as a knight from that day only.`` I replied and she looked at me with a frown.

"Your highness, the academy always started with the start of spring, one month after the entrance exam" I nodded at her remark.

"Yes. but this year, they are opening the academy early due to some personal reason. I do not ask things that have nothing to do with me. All I know is you have to do well in the exams to serve me after two days." tough she nodded and bowed, she was still looking confused as she left the room.

"Your highness" I looked at Kirian who was looking at me with widened eyes.

"Your highness, why did I not hear the notice that the academy is starting early?" he asked with bewilderment when I smirked.

"It is because you have still not notified that old man that I want the academy to be opened in two days." my reply made him dumbfounded as he kept looking at me. 

He opened his mouth to protest but shut it looking at my dark face.

"But my lord, how could we force the principal to do that?" said Theodore when he realized Kirian was at loss of words.

"If I could think all this by myself then why would I need you?" I asked nonchalantly and this time not only Kirian but Theodore were dumbfounded too.

I rolled my eyes and added.

"We need to find the person who is attacking her since the attacks started only when she decided to serve me. These incidents are not as simple as they look. So you better get the notice of the academy opening in two days. I am going to the brothel to meet others. I need further planning.\'\' With that I moved without waiting for their reply. 

The moment I came out of the chamber I heard the sound of cursing and I shook my head.

I walked straight towards my stable when I found Josephine standing there.

To say that I was surprised would be an understatement. After the death of Carlise, we both have stopped spending time with each other and seldom cross paths.

Though I would not deny it, I miss her. I miss the way she used to cry holding my hand that Carlise had bullied her. Now she had been strong enough to bully others. But I knew somewhere the little girl was still hidden. 

"Ah.. don\'t tell me that you are here to serve me as knight after your oath taking ceremony??" I asked with a smirk and she turned to look at me.

"Ha! There must be a limit to being delusional. If given a chance, I would be the first to stab you with my own dagger." she snarled as she looked at me with those sharp eyes. The eyes used to be affectionate at a point of time.

A lump formed in my throat, when I heard her words. So I just moved and ignored her, afraid that she would see the love in my eyes that was still there for her.

"Wait, I am not done with you yet." she shouted and i turned to look at her.

"I am here for Abigail," she added when I did not say anything.

"What about her, Jose? she had nothing to do with you or the incident." I replied , getting agitated.

"Oh. so finally my scumbag brother had protected someone. Don\'t tell me she is special to you."
