The villainess aims for a peaceful life 23 Banquet 1

Dressed with the blue mermaid hair, my hair is done in a messy braid with a few blue gemstones along it. Because my hair is white like Fathers and Lucius, the blue gemstones make a nice contrast. As for the make up I opted for a more natural look since my dress already had to many details.

Because stupid Niisama went to the border and I reaally don't want to associate with the Harem, Leo is the one who is going to be today's companion. So, from our house will leave three carriages:

The Dubois carriage, with my parents.

The Alby Carriage, with Leo's parents.

And the IP carriage, with me and Leo.

All of us will be dressed from head to toe from IP

*toc toc*

"Are you ready little bunny? Leo is already waiting for you downstairs"

"Yes Father. Just a second"

As I open the door I see a god in front of me called father. With his dark blue suit and silver tie, Father right now is just to hot.

"Bunny, or else you change your dress? Is to exposed"

Wait for him to see what his wife chose for me. Thank god I chose this one.

"Nonsense. We don't have time, let's go."

As we descend the stars I see other god called Leo. Everybody is so handsome today, maybe I won't be able to get to the end of the night.

"Good Night Leo"

"..."

"Leo?"

"..."

"Leo!"

"Ah!"

Leo start to blush really fast.

"Good night, should we go?"

"G-g-Good night Miss Cecile, you are beautiful today, a mean you always were but t-today you are..."

Haha is so cute when Leo is flustered.

"Thank you for your compliment you are also very handsome today"

"Thank you Miss"

'What is this cute creature??'

"When we are out of work you can call me Cecis"

"How could I?"

"I insist. Call once for me to hear"

"C-Cecis-sama"

"Without the sama or else I will need to punish you"

I finally understand the overbearing president routine! Is so funny to tease cute creatures

*cough cough*

Father you are still here? Go to your wife.

"Well Father we are leaving. We will meet you there."

Ignoring my Father's displeased eyes, Leo and I made our way to the palace.

...

"Lady Cecile Dubois and Sir Leon Alby"

I could hear that the murmurs became louder.

Linking my arms to Leo I remembered him to straighten his back and pretend that he owns the world. Although he is shy, once order to do something he will be 1000% committed to finish the ask. His task now is to be someone with high self esteem and poise. As we descend the stairs the murmurs were getting less and less until we got to the last step and there was a pin drop silence.

Feeling the stiffness of my poor companion I lightly pinch his arm to signalize that everything was going to be fine. Gradually, as we made our way through the crowd that opened as if we were Moisés, Leo relaxed and open a noble-like smile.

As we finally found a place and murmurs came back some of my friends came to talk with us

"Cecile, how are you? I went to Temone but you weren't there"

"Hello Irene, I'm fine, I was occupied with the other stores these days and couldn't pass by"

"Hey aren't you one of the top 10 of our class, I didn't know you were acquainted"

"Good evening Ladies, My name is Leon Alby, pleases to make your acquaintance. Cecile and I now work together"

Ho, very good. No stuttering.

"It is so? Nice to meet you Leon-kun. I am Irene and She is Martha."

"Nice to meet you Leon"

"And where did you bought this dress? Even Leon-kun suit is nice. I'm jealous ~"

"Well, both of us are using from head to toe the exclusive line of our the department store, which will open next week~"

"Hee, I feel that in the future all my allowance will be pocketed by you"

"We are such pitiful souls you should at least send a dress or two for free. We can help advertise the brand"

"I will think on your case~"

"The Crown Prince Albert and Lady Julia Hartmann"

Everybody stopped to see the couple of dogs.

His Highness is dressing white military ceremonial uniform (just like mangas) with a cape and Lady Julia is with a light green princess dress.

I heard many people complimenting how beautiful they were together or how their union must truly be blessed by heaven.

I wanted to yell that I can hear them, but I must maintain my indifference facade and show them I'm above all this to care about them.

Leo also heard the comments and hugged my waist and pulled me close to him. Are you trying to pretend to be a couple to protect me? How considerate of you Leo.

"Truly disgusting, is good that you got rid of him Cecile"

"Yes. He's undeserving of you"

"Thank you guys"

As the Crown Prince and Julia descended, many nobles run to curry favor with them. This is one of the many think I will not miss from being the Crown Princess.

"Leo, lets go to the dessert table I'm a bit hungry"

"Okay"

Without letting me loose, Leo walk me to the dessert table.

Hmm... although not it can't compare with our chefs they are not bad.

"Bunny-Chan you are here"

As we heard this sexy voice, the grip around my waist tightened.

"Lukas-niisama, you are here"

"And who is this?"

"My friend and colleague Leon Alby"

"Nice to meet you Lukas-sama"

"Lil bunny, if Louis knows you are close to other guys beside me he'll be drive nuts."

"You are the one that brother must warn me about though"

"Haha is true. But bunny today you are like a nymph that came out of my dreams, you are mesmerizing"

As he look at me as if he wanted trap my soul, I felt my cheeks starting to burn.

Get a grip of yourself Cecile!

"She always beautiful Lukas-sama"

"Yes, yes"

"Thank you for your praise Niisan and Leo, but please stop or you gonna make me blush"

At that moment a sweet voice came from behind us

"Lukas you are here!"
