Chapter 3

It's almost two months when I got reborn again, or I can say send back to my past, I don't know how! I took over the main position of the family and made my father to stay in his room locked as I was in my second life.

The only biggest problem I have at this time is crown prince. "I AM DAMN ENGAGED WITH HIM AND I DON'T KNOW HOW TO BREAK THE ENGAGEMENT! " I shouted in anger.

Not so very familiar voice I heard from the behind and I looked back. "Are you enjoying the tea, my lady? " Isn't this Duke of Maryland? I thought.

"Why are you looking at me like this, lady Alina? " He said while sitting on the chair. I still remember my second life, when he asked me to get married to him, but I rejected because he belongs from shadow family!

A family which is loyal to the Royal Family from last 40 years! And as much as I know about shadow family, they just know how to kill and nothing!

"I know what are you thinking of about, lady Alina. But we are humans too... we do a lot of work except killing too! And I never killed anyone! " He said with a stir voice.

"Huh? " The only voice which comes out from my mouth at that time, as I was busy with my thoughts. "Ahem! I wasn't thinking anything like this! " I said hastily.

"I believe You're not allowed here after what you did last time, right? " I said with an angelic smile. He laughed "Well… This smile doesn't look good on you! Your cold nature is more beautiful than this fake angelic smile and about how I came here look at the main entrance! "

As soon as I looked at the main entrance I feel like killing this Duke of Maryland! Like how actually he dared to come here with this jerk! "You came with crown prince? " My voice suddenly changed.

"Yeah! I do come with Crown prince, Crown Princess! " He gave a wide smile and tries to hold my hand. I just took my hand back before he can touch "I'm engaged! Don't touch me! " I told.

He smiled and said "I heard what you shouted at that time! I'm damn engaged with him and I don't know how to break this engagement! "

"I can help you with this! " He was saying everything very calmly which made me more interested in how he can help me.

"Tell me! How can you help me? By killing Crown prince? " I just mocked him. "I can't kill him, as our Shadow family always are loyal to the Royal Family! But I can help you to break this marriage! " He smiled.

"How? " I asked without letting him say anything! "Affair! " He replied.

"Affair? " I looked at him blankly. " You really can think, someone will dare to have affair with me when I'm no one else then the Crown Princess? " I said in a low voice.

"I will! " He replied! I know from the experience of my last life he is crazy but did he know what he is saying?

"Are you telling me, you will break the loyalty of last 40 years? " I smiled while asking. He just smirked while leaning towards me" I can kill the whole Royal Family, because it's my parents and ancestors who take oath to be loyal not me! "

I laughed a little as I knew something new about him this time. In my last lifetime, he never expressed this thought of his in front of me! "What are you thinking, Lady Alina?" He was just looking at me.

I sighed and asked him" Even if I agree with this, how will you make crown prince believe in it? " His smile suddenly gets wide "You just have to act along with me, lady Alina! "

I nodded "Okay! Duke! " He tucks my hair behind my ears and whispers "No need of formality, just call me from my name! " And smiled.

And that was the time I realized..." What the hell! I don't even know his name! From which name should I call him now? " I was talking with myself in my mind and I didn't notice that he noticed my expression. "It's alright! If you don't know my name, Lady Alina. I can introduce myself to you! "

As soon as he told it I found him as sweet as sugar, but sweet things gives diabetes will he also going to give one?

"Get ready! I will come tomorrow to pick you up! " And he starts walking back towards the carriage. I was looking at him as this jerk Duke went out without telling his name after saying he will tell! "What a jerk you're! " I mumble.

And then I saw the crown prince coming out from the Mansion and looked at me and gave his creepy smile. "Alright! Despite being how much handsome he is, I never can say his smile is good! " I thought and just smiles awkwardly.

A sudden realization hits me at that time. "This jerk Duke went off from here because, he already noticed his presence? " I sighed. "No doubt! Shadow family is one of the craziest family ever existed! " I started laughing, and one maid suddenly approach me asked "What happened, Lady Alina? ".

" Nothing! Just realized how idiot I was back then!". I was talking about my second life, when I can see at all these things and can have fun, but I decided to run away! What an idiot I was!

Meanwhile, on the other side when Crown Prince and Duke of Maryland were heading towards the Palace, Duke started conversation. "Are you sure about marring, Lady Alina? "

"Well... sometimes I am not able to understand her, but I believe she and I will look great together! " Crown prince replied!

"What if she is having affair instead being getting engaged? " Duke asked while looking directly in eyes. "I will make sure to kill that person and throwing her in prison, throughout her life! " Replied with a deep voice!

"I don't know when you and Lady Alina got this much close, that you were having tea with her! But remember she is the crown princess of this kingdom! " Said coldly. Duke just laughed and looked out of the carriage.
