ꕥThe Way to Protect the Female Lead's Older Brother

"Of course! I think he has been getting bored, stuck in there for such a long time and seeing only one face practically everyday," she laughed.

You gasped. "But you're so beautiful! You could never get boring. It would make me the happiest person in the entire world if I could be with you for just one minute each day! Though I would prefer to spend much more than that... but that isn't my point," you preached passionately. A moment later, "... Ah, sorry for talking so much."

Roxana turned back to the door in an attempt to hide her smile and opened it. 

"I'll bring him out," she said as she strolled inside. You also heard her say, " Come on Cassis. We're going to give you some sunlight. (Y/N) tells me it's good for your health. " Roxana walked out with her toy on "its" leash.

Roxana brought him out and,*cough hack hack* "It's so bright!!!"🌻🌞☀ His already shiny silver hair was shining even brighter now that there were more lights, and his eyes were like stars. Roxana and Cassis had stood next to each other many times, so you knew that their beauty was unmatched. The tea cups and hallways paled in comparison! They are heavenly. (Even more so with Cassis in a collar! 😌) "I feel like a wet, muddy rat next to them."

Your understanding friend, Roxana, must have felt your self consciousness. And because she also knew that lying was not and acceptable way to comfort someone, she didn't say anything. She just handed you the leash that was attached to the breathtaking male. This cheered you up immediately. Feeling like you could control something was great. You skipped your way to the garden, forcing Cassis to walk faster so he wouldn't choke. 

You bounced into the garden with your two best friends behind you. Ahh. So peaceful and sunny. The scary bees were buzzing and collecting their nectar. The wind blew your (h/l) (h/c) hair all over your face, but you still felt better than ever. Was that someone singing? Yes, such melodic screeching and screaming- What?? 

"Maria," Roxana confirmed. It's the crazy woman who's obsessed with torturing Lady Sierra. Luckily(?) Maria quite likes you. She treats you well, although that just might be because she wants to hurt Lady Sierra by getting close to something she(Sierra) cares about. At least Maria invites you to her tea parties. Who doesn't like free food? 

"Let's go see what she's up to," you tugged Cassis's leash, wanting to witness the drama with your own eyes. 

"Wait-" Cassis reached out in an attempt to stop you. You pulled harder. The other two had no choice but to follow you. One because you wouldn't let go, and the other because she cared. You got there in time to see Maria stab a maid in the chest with her super sharp umbrella. 

The caramel haired woman turned around as if she had sensed you there and grinned. "(N/N), Xana! Sorry you had to see that. My maids were being rebellious. They've been talking back to me too many times these days. I had to teach them a lesson," Maria shook her umbrella to get the blood off. It splattered all over the flowers. " My goodness, why do these maids always choose to be annoying in the gardens? At this rate, the only flowers we're going to have are red ones!" 

"You should find a new hobby, Maria. Doesn't this ever get old?" Roxana held in her grimace. 

Ignoring her question, Maria finally noticed Cassis. "My! Is this the new toy everyone has been talking about?" She looked excited. "He's so pretty! Is he obedient? If you don't like the way he acts, I can always fix him up for you!"

"No need for that. I can do it myself," Roxana answered. "We're going to continue with our walk, if you don't mind."

"Well then, goodbye," Maria sighed, disappointed. "And (N/N), do come visit more! I'm going to have another tea party soon. I'll introduce someone I've been preparing for a long time." She walked away, leaving the dead maids on the ground.
