Here's the next chapter.......
For now onward consent between the Crown Prince and the female lead will be important to the Crown Prince......
============================================================

I still sat on the bed by the Crown Prince's side, watching him, and the antidote was already given to him, and I was waiting for him to wake up.
He wasn't having a fever though, yet when he was poisoned he had a fever, but now he don't have a fever, but I was using a rag to wipe away the leftover sweat he did have on him from having a fever earlier, and Bochan returned inside the room, him asking me.
"Has he woken up yet?"

I shook my head, biting my lip.
"No."

"The royal doctor said it would take awhile, so do not worry."
Bochan pats my shoulder.

I saw the Crown Prince's long dark eyelashes flutter, and soon he slowly opens his red eyes, and looked immediately to me, and I then hug him immediately, making him grunt.
"Your Majesty!
Thank the gods you are alright!"

I felt his arms wrap around my body, one hand in my golden hair, his nose dipping into it.
"Shush; I am fine now."
He murmurs into my long blonde hair, and I was trembling, me ever so worried over him, since he's my savior from my hellish life with the Yuun household, and I don't want to ever lose him.
"You are trembling so much.
Were you that worried?"
I pull away from him and nod, looking into his red eyes.

Bochan cleared his throat and the Crown Prince looked towards Bochan.
"Your Majesty; your father is coming to visit, him hearing the rumors you favor this girl."

The Crown Prince tugged me by force to where I'm straddling his lap, my knees on the bed, on each side by his hips, and he had his hand on my lower back, sliding it down to clench my right round bubbly ass cheek, him giving Bochan a possessive look.
"Why should I care about him visiting?"
He sassed Bochan.

"If he finds out this servant on your lap had been in your bed countless times, he shall show no remorse in trying to cause her death himself.
He may even force you to marry Princess Meorang."
Bochan says to the Crown Prince.

"He may try, yet will not succeed."
The Crown Prince glared his red eyes at Bochan.

"Your Majesty; I suggest you distance yourself from her whilst your father, the Emperor is here, but General Yami can make sure she is safe in secret.
Your father will harm her if you do not distance yourself from her, whilst he is here.
I am sure of it."
Bochan kneeled on his knees, kowtowing to the Crown Prince.

"I understand your urgency Bochan, and we both know how my father is, yet if he harms what is mine.
I shall slaughter him without mercy, and he knows I can.
After I killed grandfather; the old man is afraid of my unrelenting horrid wrath, so he would not dare anger me.
Thus is why he cast me aside to this palace out of fear, so you need not worry Bochan."
The Crown Prince sneered at Bochan in a deviant way, as if he's eager to slaughter his own blood relative, which gave me chicken skin at knowing that, causing cold chills to skitter up my spine, making me wonder what I got myself into, but at the same time I don't care at the moment, because I truly cared for the Crown Prince, and I realized it was because I loved him, known awhile I did.

"Your Majesty; you should know, a letter was sent here by your father, that you should read."
Bochan then walked over, him handing the Crown Prince a rolled up scroll, which His Majesty unfurled, reading the contents, but sadly I don't know how to read and write, so I don't know what it says to be honest, so I stared at the page, at the markings in awe, and yet he noticed, his red eyes looking to me.
"Can you read?"
He asked me.
I shook my head nope.
"I see.
I can teach you."
I go wide eyed at what he says.

"You will?"
I ask him.

"Indeed I can."
He tells me, smiling a warm smile at me, then looked at the scroll.
"After my father visits."
I watch him scowl.
"You cannot visit me unless you serve me in normal ways, whilst he is here, for your safety alright."
I nod to him, me worried about the serious scowl upon his face, which meant whatever the letter says cannot be good in the least.
He looked at me.
"Your name."

"Ohana.
My name means family."
I tell him.
"Don't you remember I told you of it?"

"Ohana.
I shall remember it for now on, since I forgot it."
He says to me, and then tugged me to sit my round ass on his groin, and he hugged me to his chest, his nose in my hair.
"I shall keep you close afterwards."
His hand trailed lower to cup my slight pot belly, giving it a gentle squeeze, making me shiver, yet feel loved all at once, and Bochan looked away, as if to give us privacy.
"Bochan call General Yami in here."
He looked to Bochan.

Bochan bows slightly, saying to his master.
"Yes your Majesty."
Bochan then left the room, and the Crown Prince sighs in a sad manner.

"Ohana, you must go on with serving me in a normal way, and General Yami will make sure you are safe in the shadows.
For now I must keep my distance.
My father has leverage dangling before me, that if I do not have you stay away awhile, he could harm that leverage, which is my mother."
The Crown Prince says to me, and I nod, me looking at his trembling hand that's gently squeezing my slight pot belly.

I put my hand on his, that was trembling upon my slight pot belly, and say warmly to him.
"I can do that, stay away awhile, and only tending to you normally.
Your mother's safety comes before me anyways, since I'm of low ranking birth, and not worthy of your lingering affections, so don't worry about me so much."
I told him how I truly felt to be honest.

"Ohana; to me you are just as important as my mother."
He mutters in my right ear, making it ache weird.
"You are worthy of my gaze upon you.
Of my touch.
Of me loving your plump body."

I blink in shock at his words, and I felt special by him saying that, and I bit my lip, holding in the urge to want to sob at how kind his words were to me, because once again he is showing me kindness I never had in life.
"T.....thank you, but I don't deserve you doing that stuff.
I'm dirty blood."
I tell him honestly.

"Dirty blood?!
Who spoke such nonsense?!"
He asked me, his voice hinting anger when he asked me this.

"My father and sister."
I tell him honestly.

Bochan then walked into the room with General Yami, and the Crown Prince says to General Yami.
"General Yami; you will watch over her, to keep her safe in secret, when my father visits, and until he leaves, continue doing so."

General Yami kneeled on one knee and replied.
"Yes your Majesty."

The Crown Prince then motioned both to leave, and then he looked down at me.
"I relieve you Ohana of your duties today, so go rest."
I nod, and slip out of his bed, and turn to face him.
He waved me away.
"I will bathe later, which I will call you for.
For now I will rest."

"Yes your Majesty."
I nod to him, then I left his bedroom, and General Yami then escorted me to my own bedroom in the servants quarters.

"Rest."
General Yami says to me, and I nod, smiling warmly at him, then I go into my bedroom, and head for bed.
