Damaged dignity

After a night full of horrible nightmares, I found the strategy of avoiding Ronald to best deal with the situation.

Of course I run into him before the first hour… Not like when I searched for him in heaven and earth…

"Ah!"

I bumped into Christian's chest. I was looking for the red-haired Ronald with my gaze so much that I didn't even notice him coming out in the hallway opposite me.

"Ashley, are you okay?"

He caught me bouncing back 2 steps from his rock hard chest.

"Oh, Christian, I'm fine, thank you. Forgive me, I wasn't looking ahead. "

"I noticed that. Everything is alright? I haven't seen you since the school year started… I was planning to visit… "

It was then that I remembered that Christian could not go to the Kerrington estate.

"Oh! I'm not going home just during the break, so please don't bother going to our mansion for your usual tea. Here, within the walls of the school, we can see each other anyway, we can even forget that silly little tradition! "

I laughed waving foolishly.

"Silly little tradition? So far, you've been begging .. mpf. "

That's when I saw Ronald approach, and before Christian talks about how much the original Ashley insisted on spending time together, I put my hands on his mouth involuntarily. Of course, Ronald wasn't kind enough, to try to not roast me right away either, since it was clear to him who I was - I was on his list of top 5 people to be killed… and so he was the main villain.

"Oh, Miss Kerrington! So good to see you, I hope you brought a change of clothes… mpf.! "

My hand migrated over Ronald's mouth.

I could feel my head glowing.

"Christian, have a nice day… I'm going with Ronald… now because he's showing me something…"

"Do you… know each other?"

I saw a complete confusion sit on my fiancé's face. The image of me in his head slowly crashes completely… but I didn't care. I had to save what I could save.

I grabbed Ronald's hand and pulled him to a bench under a linden tree in the yard.

"Hahaha…"

Ronald laughed to tears as I fought for my life.

"What's so funny? That you wanted to roast me, because of an unpleasant situation caused by a serious health problem, or that I missed my literature class because of you? "

I puffed, now reddened from the run.

"You..haha … you're a really..interesting girl."

He wiped the emerald green eyes.

"Rather unfortunate."

"Either way I look - you can't be Ashley Kerrington."

The change was pretty clear.

"Well my genetics haven't changed… and you can believe there's no one in this world who would want to trade with me."

"Ashley, who was obsessed to be with Christian, is such a shy and mentally shaky girl who wouldn't even dare touch her fiancé, let alone… "

A devilish grin sat on his face.

"Let alone?"

I waited for the sentence to end… maybe I did screw something up?

"Do you know we ran across the school holding hands?"

"And whats about it?"

"You just threw your honor out through the window … like this …"

He stepped closer. The main villain here or there… this half-length red hair, bright green eyes… snow-white skin… he is a damn good looking guy too.

"You could have even kissed me."

I felt my ears hot, I think I blushed.

"Why would I have done that?"

"Because with your action just now, you almost signaled that there were plenty more between us than just being students in the same school."

"Haha… do you think your purity got questionined?"

'Fuck… I forgot I shouldn't even stay here alone with a male… I've really fucked up that now.'

"Well… yes… so in 2 days the lady quite hurt me. Starting with physical abuse… "

'Because it's so bad for a knight to fall off from a bed.'

He walked around smiling gently.

"Not to mention the trauma I could owe to the bloody sight…"

'You are a fucking butcher, man! What trauma ?! '

"And it is thanks to me that you got help in time… and then now, even among the noble ladies, it makes it harder for me to get married… .tsktsktsk…"

He shook his head in disapproval.

"Ha! If I have done so much damage, don't be mad, my dear Lord… I will take responsibility and then I will get married to you! "

I put my hand on my hip. I saw his eyes widen.

"But… you already have a fiancé, or was my handsomeness so enchanting that you forgot that too?"

'I think he was sure i have gone insane.'

"I don't understand why everyone thinks I have a fiancé - there really is an agreement between the Mcrowan and the Kerrington house, but nowhere is my name written - even my sister can marry Christian."

I shrugged.

"So there's nothing to worry about young lord."

And with that, I left him there. I don't know what face he had… I don't know if he understood my hint… I just hope he looks for me after this… otherwise I was done for.
