Saving The Abandoned Empress

31 “The Reason Of His Hatred”

That day, Little crown prince with a chubby face and round red eyes had run away from the bush and he was hoping to meet the little baby again.

For many days, he kept thinking about how he can meet her again.

But what he didn’t expected was to meet her again at his fifth birthday banquet, only after four months of their previous encounter.

The ducal couple greet him and the duke hold a little girl in his arms, who had silver hair and blue eyes just like her father.

The same little girl whom he meet before was the same exact girl whom everyone praised and said he was lucky to have her as a partner.

She was no other then that same little baby, who saved him that day.

The same little girl, whom he didn’t liked even without seeing her.

Originally, people get their magic attributes after they pass their fifth birthday.

But his potential partner, Eleanora La Dalton, could use her powers since she started to crawl, where he awaken his powers just today, on his fifth birthday.

.....

She had awakened her powers unknowingly, when she saw the little crown prince falling down from the tree.

But this was unknown to everyone, including herself as she didn’t understand anything properly at that time.

The five year old little crown prince was angry at the little one old Eleanora.

Because, it was clearly his birthday banquet but everyone was focusing on her!

Even his father, who was always strict with him was smiling and playing with her.

He was making a little flames with his magic power to astonish her as she clapped happily because of the entertainment she was receiving.

When he awaken his fire attribute powers, everyone just congratulated him for a brief moment.

Before they started to focus on the little girl who could create a snowflake if someone she liked asked to make one.

The emperor teached her how to do this and she immediately learnt it.

How she laughed, how she miss pronounced words even if she did something uncultured, everyone praised how beautiful and talented she is!

When Little Eleanora suddenly saw the little gloomy crown prince at the middle of the banquet hall, she waved at him, calling him ‘Ice Man’ as she previously remembered him like that.

Eleanora wanted the crown prince to hold and play with her like he did before at the garden but when he refused, she started crying.

The little Cathain was just flustered for a moment but he didn’t realized his action would be looked in a different way to the other people.

‘Why is the crown prince so cold blooded? She is just a little child. He should be honoured to have her as his future partner.’

This was what everyone murmur openly infront of the little crown prince that day. He also become a laughing stock because of that.

People laughed at how, even a one year old tiny girl knows he is cold! His own future partner called him that!

From that day, Cathain never meet Eleanora face to face again.

And it seemed like Eleanora, who was very little at that time didn’t remember about this too.

She spent her happy time with her family, where Cathain was filled up with annoyance as wherever he went, he would only hear her name.

‘The crown princess also knows this... she did this months ago, where the crown prince is only passable at this.’

Cathain started to hate even hearing his partners name as time passed by.

He avoided her in every occasion but he was more pissed off when he noticed how unbothered she was about that!

She seem to not even have the slightest awareness of his ignoring.

Without his knowing, he would spent most of his time, looking at her. But she never noticed as she was always surrounded by the crowd.

This just seem to him like, she was being ignorant.

Looking down on him. Enjoying the attention which was supposed to be his!

Everything only changed after Eleanora’s mother, duchess Eunicelia died on the attack.

Eleanora’s once happy family picture shattered into pieces.

Father become distance and other started to criticism her because she survived alone.

Her mother sacrificed herself for her. Both of their story become the same, which only remained unknown to the other one.

Eleanora become more and more cold as she grew up. The people feared to even approach her anymore because of her chilly aura.

The same people who used to create crowd just to talk with her. They started to talking behind her back.

She started to sulked back her training and started to follow her father everywhere to stay with him.

And Cathain knew all of this as, he was also following her, whenever he got the chance.

He just thought, he should keep an eye on his enemy. But he never expected to bump into her accidentally that day and fall into the lake.

He saved her and now he thinks she doesn’t even know that it was him who saved her!

The duke just sent him a high grade magic stone, which he had a eyes on as a token of appreciation for his help!

‘I want to get closer to her... But how?’

Cathain was tossing around the bed with a pillow in his embrace. Just how can he approach her, without her being terrified of him.

‘Only if she didn’t recognised me....’

Then a sudden realization came to his mind and he got up from his bed and approached the bedside drawer, where he put the magic stone, that was given by the duke.

He took the pentagon shaped red magic stone in his hands as he closed his eyes to absorb the magic stone’s power inside him.

If what he thought worked out, then he might be able to approach her, without having to worry about her collapsing.

Or at least he can try to see if it works outs or not.

His only hope was now this magic stone.
