Unexpected (Ren Kouen x OC) Magi

||Chapter 2||

"Princess Lijuan, the prince of Kou have summoned you for the meeting," the maid of Kou said while slightly bowing her head afraid to look into my eyes. "Please, don't be afraid of me. I won't do anything to people who have not done anything wrong to me or my people," the maid got slightly taken back by my words, finally looking at me. "Your going to be in charge with me while I stay in Kou right? So, may I please know your name?" The maid stared with great confusion. "Please stop staring at me like that plus I wouldn't know your name without you speaking," she finally realized the situation and stuttered trying to say her name, "A-Ai-Aiko, is my name!"

"Aiko, huh? Aiko means child of love right? I think that name fits you well, Aiko-san."

"Princess, your name fits you very well too!" After she finished her sentence I stared at her with be wilderness. I slightly giggled at her behavior, looking back at her, seeing her shocked by my action. "Sorry Aiko, its just people like you are rare because the people at Xin always say that mine name is the total opposite of my personalities," I continued my laughing until Aiko called out to me again, "Princess?" "Ah, sorry its okay, don't worry you're dismissed. I'll go to the meeting as soon as I am ready."

If I were to describe my sleep last it would be dreadful. The aura of this country is horrible. Every since I was small, I had a great sense of sensing auras. I walked out of my room asking Aiko to lead me to the meeting room with the first prince of Kou. I don't really remember how did the prince looked because the place where we met had little lighting except for the moon's light. Thinking back to my meeting with the first prince brought chills down on my spin, I just made the worst impression in front of the person where I am suppose to negotiate and act nice but the truth is I have a feeling that I am going to hate this man name, Ren Kouen.

"Princess Lijuan, were here at the meeting room, please enter before Kouen-sama gets mad for your tardiness."

"Mad? Let's how he is going to do that?"

Entering the meeting room, I first looked around to check if the princes is hiding anyone to assassinate me. I closed my eyes taking a deep breath and stood in front of the princes making a loud sigh. "Are you really planning to kill me, Princes of Kou?" I looked up at the first prince of Kou with a little annoyance. Kouen looked at me with amusement. "So, you can detect your surrounding with ease. Interesting. Koumei, dismiss the assassinates," he said without taking his gaze out of me.

"Alright, lets introduce our selves properly this time," hearing that I took a few steps back from his throne and slightly bowed down while my hand is clasped together. "The first princess of Xin Empire, Hong Lijuan," straiten up my back at looked up at the three princes in front of me.

"The first prince of Kou Empire, Ren Kouen."

"The second prince of Kou Empire, Ren Koumei."

"The third prince of Kou Empire, Ren Kouha."

"Going back to our main objective, Lijuan, your request is to let the people of Xin to immigrant to Kou to practice agricultures and to trade things between our countries?"

"Yes, prince Kouen."

"Alright, however if I were to agree to the requests I would like to ask a few things to trade too but I will be stating my request later. It seems that you have other things to ask me."

"Yes prince Kouen, I do have another thing that I had to add into my agenda."

"State your request."

"Lately in my country there have been a few unpleasant people roaming around and I was thinking that your country is partly the reason for the cause."

"Was that reason why you were running around last night?"

"Running around? Hah! Prince Kouen aren't you planning to become the king of the world? Then why don't you start to protecting your own country?"

"Don't you dare talk to my brother like that you bitch!" the third prince yelled, running to me with his sword. Getting ready to summon his djinn. Grabbing his wrist twisting it back and pinned him on to the floor making his face meeting the ground. "Prince Kouha, don't let your feeling run wild. It will ruin you, one day." I said that with the past memories running past my mind. Letting go of the weak prince, he stood up glaring at me while Koumei came and helped him.

"As what I was saying, Prince Kouen please take action and stop those bastard running around freely. Like what I said last night your country will be in danger. If your not going to take action, then I will start myself!" I stated looking at Kouen's eyes without any doubt of my own words. I know that father will be furious with my decision without his concern but I need to stop those aura from spreading any further than it has. Getting ready to leave the room, I took a few steps toward the door but soon stopped by Kouen's words. "Lijuan, come to my room later tonight."

Looking back at him without saying anything, taking my leave again but I stop in front of the door opening it half way. I looked back at the three princes again. "Prince Kouen, can you please stop your subordinates from hiding in the shadow? Their seriously annoying! Plus, if you really want me to die then kill me yourself. Don't let innocent people to dirty their hands for an arrogant prince like you."

"YOU BITCH!" the short third prince screamed, fling himself toward me with his sword on his side getting ready to end my life. I dodged his attack by bending down grasped his ankle and throw him on the ground. Making his back meeting the ground with great force. He coughed out a little blood. I walked toward the door again but looked back at the poor prince laying on his side coughing. "Prince Kouha your attack is too weak, you need more training. Just having a djinn doesn't make you stronger, what are so afraid of? Breaking a bone or getting your hair messed up?"

The third prince stared at me with his eyes wide, shock, and confusion. Probably wondering how I knew his weakness. I sighed and crouched down where I can level my eyes to Kouha and gave a sly grin. "You're to easy to read, Mr. Bad Attitude!" I emphasized his new name, clearly seeing his annoyance on his face. "Don't think you can beat me just because I a girl. When you want to kill someone you got to forget about everything and only think about that one person! I HATE people who isn't ready of the consequences when they take actions!" Giving him a glare and I can clearly see that he is developing a hate toward me already. I sighed, knowing why people always hating me. I really need to change my attitude. I stood up from my previous position and gave Kouha a weak smile.

"Prince Kouha, please don't underestimate me.... I will be taking my leave now."

||Kouen's POV||

"What was with that smile?" Kouha asked sitting up from the place where Lijuan had thrown him on. "Looks like that Lijuan has a interesting past," Koumei and Kouha looked at me confuse by my words. I stood up from my throne and walked to Kouha using my djinn to heal his bruises and a few cuts.

"Onii-sama may I ask what is the request that you want to make for the trade with princess Lijuan?"

"Oh that, I think Lijuan is going to be shocked my request for her or maybe she is going to hate me for it. Isn't she interesting Koumei, Kouha?" They stared at me for a few second before speaking again. "En-nii, I don't know about you but I don't like her," Kouha said looking back at the door where Lijuan had went through earlier. "Kouha, Onii-sama's words will always have affect for the country's future. Let's just trust Onii-sama."

"Okay, okay, I got. BUT I still don't like her!"

"Onii-sama, we still have a few meeting with the other nobles. Plus you have a meeting with Lijuan later too."

"Let's go, I going to have to clear my schedule for Lijuan."

"En-nii, why are so interested in her?"

"You'll see, Kouha"
