Duke's Daughter Margarita Frost Reporting for Duty

What I can Do 2

Prince Diego is drunk. He is swaying as he walks.
It's been weighing him for too long.
He loves Emely and want to marry her. But his parents doesn't want to agree.

Alan frowns seeing Diego.
"Do your head works? This is not your room!"

"Emely! I love you." Diego forcefully hugs Alan and kisses his hair.

Alan is so horrified he kicked Diego's precious area.

Diego angrily collapse as he hold the hurt place.

"Why did you do that?"
Diego glares at him.

Alan was so scared.
"......What are you thinking? Diego! You stupid bastard!"

"I will make you mine tonight." He said as he takes his clothes off.

"This fool!!!" He is so mad he gets a chair and  hit Diego.
Diego fell down unconscious in the ground and his pants are already down.

Alan is breathing so heavily as he called a knight.
The palace strictly told everyone never to let the rumor spread.
But it still spreads.
Only, the rumor is about Prince Diego forcing Emely in his bed.

The people are a bit unsatisfied.
They know that the Prince and Lady Emely is an item but to do it before marriage is not a appropriate as a future King.
Also the royal ball is days away.
They aren't official couple.
There are rumors that this kind of prince doesn't deserve to be a King.
There are who is saying that Prince Diego is not that good.
There are factions that still choose the first prince as the next ruler.

The King is mad.
He is so mad he hits Diego's face for the first time in his life. He hits one of his sons.
And this is the one he favored the most.

"Fool! You want to rape your own brother!"

Diego is kneeling as he endure the pain in his cheek.

The Queen is hugging Diego.

"Dear, please don't get mad."

"Don't get mad?! Are you a fool? This bastard tries to bed his own brother! Your own blood and flesh!"

"I am drunk father. I am drunk."

"Go away. You should go before I hit you again!"

Diego and the Queen left hurriedly.

The King called Alan.
This son has his golden hair.
The one who resembles him the most.
But he is too wise.
When he choose Diego, he didn't think his youngest son will easily surpass him.
Not only is his appearance. He is more fast learner than Diego.
So he made a lot of effort to slow down his learning.
But a gold will still be gold even if you covered it with mud.

"What happen to you? Are you alright?"

Alan nods without much expression.

"Your brother is just drunk. You will not lwt this be a big deal right?"

"Yes father."

"Good. You really am an obedient son."

Walking away from the throne room.
Diego walks to Alan.

Alan steps back.

"Alan, I am really sorry. I am just drunk."

Alan snorts.
"I understand so leave."

"Can you clarify the rumor?"

"What rumor? You know I can't leave the palace."

Diego frowns.
"Yes. And they said it is Lady Emely."

"If you have nothing to say I will leave."

"Thank you Alan."

"Thank me?"

"Cause you easily forgive me."
Diego smiles.

Alan frowns.
"Hate you? Am I stupid? A swordsman killed people and earned their hatred but no one hated his sword. Because that is stupid to do."
He said and walks away.

Diego's face slowly become dark.
"Are you saying I am a sword?"

"In this context, yes." Alan walks away angrily.

Dwayn smiles.
"Yo."

"Did you spread the rumor about Diego and Emely?"

"Huh? What are you saying?" Dwayn says he is hurt.

Alan snorts.
"Why don't you spread another rumor that she is actually pregnant?"

Dwayn smiles.
"Oh. I am~"

"Asshole."

"Yours almost get rob, last night." Dwayn laughs.

Alan angrily try to kick him but Dwayn escape.
"Oh, don't use me as your stress reliever. Miguelito sends you a letter." He said and hand over a white envelope.
"Can you read?"

"I can."

"Oh? Who taught you?" Dwayn asks.

Alan hugs the letter and glance at Dwayn.
"I'll tell you if you promise to drop dead this instant."

Dwayn smiles.
"I promise."

Alan glares at him.
"I am so stupid to asks a demon to make promises." He walks away.

Dwayn chuckles and then walk to Diego's location.

"Diego! I heard the rumor. Are yoh alright?" He said full of concern and anxiety.
