My Fiancée Hates Me novel Chapter 16

I was waiting for either Garett or Charlotte to swing by the Library before I would begin eating.

It's quiet...

My life was surrounded by nothing but turmoil and noise. I thought I would get peace and quiet from a Library. It was all the same...

I soon felt a large tremor and the sound of multiple steps coming this way. I got up to see what the commotion was about. One lone boy with red spiky hair ran into the Library and closed the door behind him. He had clasped my mouth with his hand and pushed me onto the ground.

Ow...

The stampede went over.

"Sorry about that," the boy said as he turned towards me.

His sapphire-colored eyes reminded me of the boy I met in Exurbia Library before...

Wait! It was him! He was the Second Prince of Nariel...I had a difficulty in recognizing him. because he sprouted a whole twenty centimeters and added more muscle on him.

I covered my face.

"It's fine," I said as I quickly went to hide my face behind a book.

For some reason, he kept following me around. I began darting around the library, until he caught me at a dead end.

"You keep running away from me," he said as he pressed me against the wall and slammed his hand beside me.

"It is your imagination..."

He took he book out of my hands.

"I knew it was you, Miss Fairy. Did you change your habitat?"

"I happen to go here..."

"Even fairies need an education?"

"We are burdened by many responsibilities in Fairy Land," I said curtly as I averted my gaze and slipped underneath his arm.

"This game of chase is so fun," he said as he continued following me.

The chase continued on to the hallway. I thought that I would have to run forever, until I saw Garett. I felt the need to hide behind his back.

"Whoa!" Garett said as I clung to him from behind.

"...Just for now, could you stay still?" I asked him quietly.

"Who are you to Miss Fairy?" Second Prince Nariel asked Garett.

"Hah? Fairy?" Garett said questionably in an irritated tone.

"He means me," I whispered to him.

"This person is...It is just one after the other for you, isn't it?" Garett asked after a soft sigh.

"I'm sorry..." I said anxiously.

"...I am her Guardian," Garett answered.

"With such a mean look, you mean Guard Dog, right?" Second Prince Nariel said.

Garett seemed more irritated than usual.

"It seems that we have to settle this like men," Garett said as he seemed to drop his shoulders.

"Oho? It seems the doggy has more bite to it than I thought," Second Prince Nariel said as he geared up to fight.

They are not really going to fight, are they?

Garett grabbed my hand and pulled me towards the window.

There was a crowd of girls just waiting outside.

"Second Prince Nariel is alone outside of the Library!" Garett announced in a loud voice.

"You! I will remember this!" Second Prince Nariel shouted.

Second Prince Nariel began running as the girls began swarming in one after the other.

Garett pulled me to his side so that I would not be trampled by the fierce crowd.
