Chapter 64 - I Am The Knight



She didn\'t even join the academy. And her brother is the crown prince. Though he joined the academy every year he was mostly absent or resticated by the head.

That was why I never liked him in the past.

"My lady" my train of thoughts were broken when Beth called me once again.

"Lady Sophie would not be happy with so much waiting," she reminded me as she shivered.

Poor girl was afraid that she would be the target of all the abuse from both sides.

Ah, those days, though I was a prick and bitch. I had my own terror and they all used to be afraid of me. Those were my glorious days. I had to get them back, but this time in the right way!!

"Aah, yes. Send her in and prepare our usual snacks." 

"You want me to send lady Sophie here? In the library!" she asked me, surprised, and I nodded back.

"Since she is the one who wanted to meet me, shouldn\'t she come here and meet me where I am?" I asked back, making her dumbfounded. 

Everyone knew me as the bootlicker of Sophie since she was a higher noble than me and the sister of the love of my life. But this was not the case now. I did not even care about Josephine, much less Sophie, who was nothing but a small pawn in the whole game.

"Yes, my lady" she bowed her head and left the library. I tapped my hands on the table as I hummed a song and continued reading the book

It was so boring from the start but suddenly it started looking interesting to me. I started enjoying the great deeds the previous emperor had done and even the list of kingdoms that were part of the empire sounds readable now.

I heard the clicking of heels in the silent room but I ignored them. Sophie moved and sat in the chair that was in front of me unceremoniously as if the place belonged to her.

Her dark brown eyes glaring at me. She was wearing a heavy gown as if there is a party here. Her golden-brown hair was arranged in a bun with jewels adorned on it. Her oval face and pointed nose were red with anger.

"What are you doing here in the library and why did you not come to welcome me personally?" she asked in a haughty tone once she had seated herself comfortably. 

If I would not have known any better i would have felt that i was her servant that was bound to follow her orders.

"I was a busy lady Sophie. And I am sure Beth has shown you the way just right. I would have taken some time from my busy schedule to meet you in the parlor room if you had informed me before coming just like other nobles do. ``I replied with a sweet smile. 

Why should i make myself angry over this punny when she did not even know anything. She was just a spoiled brat by her father and brother.

She looked at me stunned as if she was having difficulty in understanding my words.

"Anyways, why are you here?" I asked again and the girl gave a wicked smile.

"My brother told me that you are preparing for the knighthood course. And you even took part in the annual knight competition. Could you believe that? I told him that he was getting confused but he said that he was sure." she said, shaking her head as if she had heard the biggest joke of the century.

"So, you are here to confirm that it was not me?" I asked, tilting my head.

Beth entered and put hibiscus tea and cookies on the table. There was a fruit platter and cupcakes too. I took one brownie and ate it without waiting for her to take anything first, which once again flared her.

"I can see that you are forgetting all your manners, Abigail. You did not even offer the guest that is also higher in ranking than you to eat and yet you are eating so brazenly." she remarked as she looked at my blissful face. Only a moan was left to show how satisfied I was with the taste of the brownie.

"Oh, I would have offered you, lady Sophie, but I know that you are on a diet. You always are. After all, you have to maintain that beautiful figure of yours. This much sugar could harm your routine. So it is better that you do not eat any.`` I said with an innocent face.

She narrowed her eyes on me, but then she smiled brightly. "Oh yes, in that case, you continue eating. I would have fruits only.`` I smiled as I passed her the fruit platter. It had the collection of all the sour fruits that I had left a few hours ago and I continued to eat all the cakes and cookies.

She continued to look at me salivating as she hardly nibbled on grapes as I moaned. It was a heavenly expression as if I was having the words best cookies. Though I would not deny I was exaggerating a bit, the way she was licking her lips was worth the effort.

"So, tell me who Abigail was from the first order of knights? She must be close to your family" she asked, starting the conversation again.

"Your brother did not have any misunderstanding, lady Sophie. It was me who had participated in the annual knight\'s competition and even came second in that." if not for the signboard going wrong i would have come first too. I still had to find out who was the one that had changed the signs and had sent me in the liar of wolves.

She smiled covering her face with her handkerchief like the pure blue blood she was. 

"That was quite funny, lady Abigail. But I would rather like to know the truth." she said, getting serious.

"I am telling the truth, lady sophie. If you do not believe me, you can try sparring with me." a frown formed on her face when I did not change my statement.
