Okidoki everyone, here I am again. Yay! X3 And yes I know I'm late but I have a very good reason to, last week was very hectic and my teachers have given us loads of homework and not to mention all of us have to do independed schoolwork to wich is really difficult and so goddamn much! (grumbles under her breath and curses the teachers).

Okay then here's the third chappie of White Romance and hope you'll all enjoy it. X3 And OMG I can't believe how many people actually like this story!

Oh and I found out that Claude actually has purple eyes so I'm going to say he has purple eyes from now on okay, I will probably correct the mistakes in the other chapters soon, just so you all know. X3

Also someone asked me about the dresses: everyone please read the notice at the bottom it's the same one as in the first chapter and then you'll see that the menas don't wear the same dresses as women!! The dresses are made a bit different please read it again if you didn't know or are confused. I would draw a mena's dress but seeing as I suck at drawing I won't or you can review or PM me and ask about it and you'll get an explanation in full detail. Anyway...

Enjoy!


Chapter 3

Previously:

'Lord Miguel meet Kai Tserno.'

Now:

Kai was extremely nervous when Claude dragged him into the Lord's lounge to introduce him. His breath was caught in his throat when he saw who this Lord was. The Lord was a gorgeous young man not that much older than himself with unruly sandy blond hair, bronze skin and the most deepest sapphire blue eyes he had ever seen in a human being. But dressed in old white shirt with a deep V-neck that showed a bit of his muscled torso and loose brown pants and brown boots, one could easily mistake him for a nothing more then a commoner. Getting out of his stupor he bowed lightly and said: 'It's nice to meet you, Lord Miguel.'

When the young beauty spoke Miguel shook his head and walked up to him. He took the mena's hand in his and kissed it. 'It's my pleasure Kai.'he said while the bluenette looked at him and smiled lightly. Behind them Claude smirked, oh this was going to be good as he watched the two practically ogle each other. Miguel and Kai were still looking at each other when they heard a cough behind them and that made them come back to earth. Kai blushed slightly and looked away in embarassement while Miguel looked over at Enrique, who had coughed, sheepishly. The other blonde just shook his head in amusement. 'Oh this is Enrique Tornatore.'Miguel said as he introduced them. 'It's nice to meet you.'Kai said. Enrique took his hand and kissed it too before he looked up at the young mena. 'Likewise, now if you wil both excuse me I have to go to Oliver and surprise him.'the blonde said as he left the lounge and went to the main kitchen.

'Well then, I suppose that I will be cooking for you two seeing as Oliver and Enrique have plans tonight. I will leave you two for now to prepare diner.'Claude said as he left the room and closed the lounge door behind him. When Claude was gone Kai sighed a bit nervous, here he was all alone with the Lord of Paladina and he had no clue what to say! Licking his lips he looked back at the young Lord who was looking at the window, the glass of wine still in his hand.

'So ...' Miguel began as he put his glass of wine down on a small darkbrown coffee table behind him. Smiling he turned his gaze to Kai as the bluenette looked at him too, although a bit nervous 'Do you mind if I ask you a few questions?'the blonde asked. 'Oh ... no not at all.'Kai said although in his mind he was screaming 'Yes I do mind', he didn't want to lie again but he could not say that for that would just be suspicious and then more questions would come and then ... well Kai would rather not think about it. The young Lord sat down and asked Kai to do so aswell. When they were both seated the young Lord took the oppurtunity to study the mena.

The bluenette seated himself gracefully using the right hand movements and sat very straight, his head held a bit high, his hands folded on his lap and his legs a bit sideways with one foot sticking behind the other in an elegant, disciplined way. He must have had etiquette classes, no commoner would know the right way to sit in the prescence of a noble like he does, Miguel thought as he continued to study the young mena. 'You are not a commoner, are you?' he asked as soon as the mena was seated comfortably. A bit surprised at the sudden question Kai could only manage one answer. 'Eumh... no I am not, Milord.'Kai said remembering to adress the young Lord by his title as a sign of respect. Miguel waved his hand at the mention of his title. 'You can call me Miguel. I would rather you would not call me 'Milord' or anything alike.' the blonde said. 'Oh ... of course.' 'Now ... would you like to tell me where you are from?'Miguel asked with a friendly and reassuring smile on his face. He wanted to make the young mena feel atleast a bit more at ease in his prescence. 'I-I ... I'm from Drayne.'Kai said softly as he started fidgeting with his dress a bit.

There one lie less, Drayne was a very large kingdom so even if the young Lord had been there or knew people there, he would probably not be able to tell who he really was, wich was good. 'Drayne? Yes, I have been there before, a day before the king's oldest son Hiro married that lovely mena ... oh what is his name again? I cannot really remember but it has been a couple of years since I have set foot in that kingdom.'the young Lord chuckled. 'How come?'Kai asked a bit curious. Miguel smiled at the mena and took a sip of his wine. 'That I will tell you some other time for now we will focus on you.' Damn, Kai thought.

'So you are from Drayne and what does your father or your mother do? Or are they nobles?'the blonde asked. Kai bit his lip. 'My parents died when I was a small child, my grandfather raised me and to answer your question he is a diamond merchant.'Kai said, a stab of guilt hit him in the chest and he had to supress the wince that was in the back of his throat. But Miguel did not seem to notice as he just nodded. 'I am sorry.'the blonde said. Kai just nodded nervously and wringed his hands together in his lap. 'Eumh ... do you have any more questions to ask me?'he asked. 'Yes, I see you are wearing a ring, are you engaged?'Miguel asked. It was common knowledge that one who was engaged was to be brought back to their future husband so they could start creating a bond with each other before the actual marriage. Beautiful as he may be Miguel did not want Kai do bring trouble to his land if the young mena was indeed engaged and had run away. It would only bring trouble and he did not need trouble right now.

Kai swallowed a bit and looked at the blonde. 'No I'm not, it's a family heirloom.'he managed to say. Miguel smiled content about the answer. 'Ah ... well it's very beautiful.'he said. 'Thank you.' 'But do you mind me asking why my men found you unconsious in the forest miles away from Drayne, dressed as you were then.'the blonde asked. 'I would rather not answer your question milord, it is rather private.'Kai said softly, bowing his head a bit as he thought back about what Tyson had done. No he did not want to lie about it ... but neither did he want to tell anyone either. 'Fair enough. You have had quite a day. Do you want something to drink perhaps?'Miguel asked as he stood up. 'Yes if you please.' The young Lord nodded and retrieved another glass and filled it with red wine before giving it to the slender mena.

Taking a sip Kai found it was a really good wine, nothing like he had every tasted before. 'Hmm this is really good, what kind of wine is it?'he asked curiously. 'Strawberry of course.' 'I love strawberries.'Kai said suddenly. 'You do?' Miguel said smiling, his sapphire eyes twinkeling a bit. 'Yes,' Kai admitted but then frowned. 'Though I have not eaten any in years.' Miguel blinked in surprise. 'Why not?' Kai sighed as he stood up and went over to the window to look at the garden. 'My grandfather had me on a strict diet.' Miguel blinked again, but then frowned. It was unbelievable what some people made their children go through.

Truelly unbelievable.

When Miguel was about to speak the doors opened and Claude came in smiling at them. 'Diner is ready.'he said. Miguel nodded to the headmaid and turned to Kai. The blonde offered his hand to Kai who accepted it smiling a little. Miguel led him to a large dining room with darkbrown walls, two large windows with long red curtains wich were now closed and a large mahogany dining table that had a dozen chairs. A large golden chandelier was dangling from the ceiling and lit candles were sitting snugly in it between the beautiful oval crystals dangling from the chandelier itself.

Miguel led Kai to his seat and pulled the chair back so the mena could sit and then pushed it back a bit, like a true gentlemen. Kai thanked him for it as the young Lord sat down himself at the head of the table with Kai sitting on his right. Claude came in carrying a silver plate with a large pieces of cut pork on it and set it down on the table. On the table there were already sitting all kinds of plates and bowls filled with salades, soup, vegetables, mashed potatoes and fruit. There were also small bowls with delicious smelling sauces. To Kai's surprise Claude seated himself on Miguel's left and filled his plate.

As they all filled their plates Miguel and Claude immediatly started up a conversation well more like Claude was lecturing Miguel yet again on doing his Lord duties. 'Claude I have already told you I will do the paperwork tomorrow.' Miguel said sighing. Claude narrowed his eyes at him, 'That is what you always say but in the end you just sneak off behind my back to go help the others. Well tomorrow I will not let you out of my sight until you have done your job.'Claude lectured the blonde. Kai could not help but chuckle lightly at how the headmaid was lecturing the young Lord as though he was lecturing a young child that did not do his chores. It was quite amusing to watch.

After a while Claude turned to Kai and smiled at him. 'Now, Kai I hope you don't mind helping around a bit as you are staying here, unless you wish to leave home tomorrow.'the mena said. 'Oh ... no I would love to stay here if Miguel does not mind.'he said, like hell he would go back to Drayne! 'No I do not mind, but won't your grandfather worry? Do you want to write him and tell him you are fine?'the blonde asked. 'No!'Kai said quickly, surprising the two. Kai laughed nervously. 'Excuse me ... no I-I left him a note when I left so do not worry about that.'the mena said God if King heard me lying now he would wash my mouth with soap multiple times., he thought and almost grimaced at the mental image. Miguel and Claude looked at each other before nodding. 'Alright then, tomorrow you can help me around the house then.'Claude said. 'Okay.'Kai said. After that diner was filled with more conversation and Kai could honestly say he enjoyed himself immensly and after diner they all said their goodnights and went to bed.

The next morning...

'Good morning!'said a very hyper voice. Kai groaned and looked up to see Mystel hovering over him. 'Mystel?' Kai sat up in his bed and rubbed his eyes cutely. 'What is wrong?'he asked. 'Claude asked me to wake you up silly, it's time to get to work!'the blonde mena said as he bounced around the room. He pulled out a grey dress with long bell sleeves and white belt and also a pair of grey shoes out of Kai's wardrobe. 'Here, now get dressed and come in the main kitchen in ten minutes, bye bye!'Mystel said and he bounced out of the room. Kai blinked a few times before he smiled a bit and got out of bed, washed himself and got dressed.

Putting his hair in a ponytail with a thick grey ribbon he walked down the stairs just as Miguel along with a redheaded male dressed in armor and silver haired male also dressed in armor came up the stairs. Knights, Kai thought as he watched the two other males talk to Miguel. The blonde looked up and saw him, he smiled at Kai and Kai smiled back although a bit shyly as they passed in the middle of the stairs. 'Ah good morning Kai.'the blonde said. 'Good morning.' Kai said with a small bow of his head. Old habits die hard after all. Tala nudged Miguel in his ribs.

'Oh sorry ... Kai this is Tala and that is Bryan, my best knights and most trusted friends. They were also the ones that found you.'he said. 'Oh, nice to meet you and thank you for finding me.'Kai said politely. 'Eh it was our pleasure.'Tala purred, taking the mena's hand and kissing it before giving him a wolfish grin. Kai blushed a bit. Bryan did the same, but then there was a scream and Claude came out the door leading towards his personal kitchen. He had a broom in his hand and when he saw Tala and Bryan he glared at them. 'You two!'he shouted angrily. Kai watched with interest as Tala and Bryan just grinned at him while the fuming mena advanced on them. 'Ruining my soup, eating my pancakes, throwing around with eggs and flower. I will make you two pay!'he shouted. 'Claude please calm down.'Miguel said. But the headmaid turned his glare on him and Miguel sweatdropped as his two knights chuckled behind him, while all this was happening Kai just watched extremely amsued.

'And you! You should be in your study doing your paperwork, so you better get started mister or you will be very sorry.'Claude said strictly with his hands on his hips, one hand still holding that broom. Miguel sweatdropped and held up his hands in mock surrender while he laughed nervously. 'Yes, about that ... eumh ... Judy asked me to help her with one of her experiments ... so eumh ... heh heh.'Miguel said rather nervously. Claude's glare intensified and he growled lowly. 'Study. Now!'he shouted at the young Lord. Now normally Miguel would just ignore him and run for the door to go help Judy but Claude was extremely pissed off today so the blonde thought better off it and went to his study sighing and pouting.

Claude turned back to the two knights, who now, without the protection of Miguel to calm Claude down had realised they better get the hell away from the headmaid. 'Eumh ... love we are very sorry.'Tala said to his wife smiling sheepishly. Of course he wasn't truelly sorry but then again he and Bryan were never truelly sorry when they pulled pranks on everyone. Claude raised his broom menacingly. 'Tala. ' 'Yes?' 'Running sounds like a good idea now.'Bryan said. 'I agree.' The redhead said and the two pranksters looked at each other before they turned around and ran so fast you only saw two trails of smoke. 'Get back here!'Claude shouted waving his broom in the air. The headmaid sighed as he calmed down and noticed Kai was standingn on the stairs to, holding a hand to his mouth to stiffle his laughter.

When he noticed Claude looking at him Kai tried to keep his laughter under control but the occasional chuckle escaped him. 'I am sorry but that was really amusing.'Kai said. Claude smiled softly. 'It is alright, I guess it must be funny to watch.' Claude said as he chuckled a bit himself. Okay it had been a bit funny seeing how full grown men had cowered before a mena that was smaller and younger then themselves. 'Come and I'll explain what your chores are today.'Claude said. Kai nodded and followed himto the main kitchen where Oliver was already busy cooking lunch. The limegreen haired mena was humming softly to himself as he pulled out another pot and put it on the stove and then started chopping up some vegetables and putting it in the pot.

'Good morning Oliver.'Kai greeted the cook. Oliver turned around and smiled. 'Ah good morning Kai. Would you like some breakfast?'the mena asked. 'Oh yes please.'Kai said. A few moments later Oliver gave him a plate filled with eggs, toast, two pancakes, slices of different kinds of fruit and of course some orange juice. 'VoilĂ , eat up now, you do need some meat on those bones.'Oliver said. Kai laughed and nodded to the cook. Claude sat himself down next to the mena. 'Now Kai, what I want you to do today is help me do the laundry wich means washing and hanging it up and after that maybe you could help Mystel with chores around the house.'the headmaid said. Having a mouth full of food Kai could only nod but that was good enough for Claude. 'Good, now eat your breakfast and we can go to work.'the mena said.

After that they went into the basement where there was a large wooden tub and several maids were runing around there, some were bringing in clothes and others were putting them in the water. Claude taught him how to wash the clothes and how to remove any hard stains on them. Although he got wet and it was a bit hard for his back, Kai enjoyed doing it. Claude and him ended up talking about all kinds of things and some of the other maids would join the conversation. They laughed and had fun, one of the maids even started a water fight with the other washers and Kai could not help but think how wonderful this was, he was having so much fun, he also found out that Enrique was Oliver's husband! After washing the clothes he and Claude went outside and hung them up all the while talking and laughing and joking around. For the first time in his life Kai felt useful, he felt wanted, he felt ... home. A feeling he had not had since his parents had died but now he had again and it felt amazing. After hanging up the clothes Kai joined Mystel in cleaning the house a bit, the blonde mena was such great company, they had lots of fun hitting the dust out of the pillows wich ended in a pillow fight.

During lunch all of the maids had sat together in the dining room and chatted about everything and anything. Miguel, who was (surprisingly) still in his study, did not join them but went straight to Judy after his paperwork was done. It surprised Kai how easily he was accepted by the other maids and how they always tried to make him part of their conversation or their work and how they always seemed so happy to help him when he didn't know what to do. They were just like a big family and Kai liked it, no he loved it. After lunch he worked another two hours with Claude and after that he was free to do as he wished.

The first thing Kai did was go to the stables, Ian and Kevin were lazing about in the large haystack when he entered the stables and went over to them. 'Oh hey, Kai right.'Ian said smirking. 'Yes eumh... I wanted to ask you two something, is there somewhere you can ride, like a paddock.'he asked. 'Yeah there is one right behind the stables, do you want to ride now?'Kevin asked grinning, a small piece of hay in his mouth. 'Yes I would.'Kai said. Kevin went to the saddle room and retrieved Dranzer's bridle, sadle and sadle blanket. 'Here you go.'he said. 'Thank you.'Kai said. 'Have fun riding.'Ian said. 'I will.' Kai said smiling as he went to the back of the stables and was greeted by Dranzer's happy whinnies. 'Hey girl, c'mon we're going for a ride.'

Dranzer whinnied happily and scratched the ground with her hooves. Kai sadled her up and lead her out of her stable. They passed Dark Gargoyle's stable, the stallion however, wasn't in there. Miguel must have gone riding too, Kai thought as he led Dranzer towards the large paddock behind the stables, he mounted her and made her trot for a while. Doing a few dressage exercises warmed Dranzer up and Kai let her canter around in the middle there were a few logs put on wooden pilars, Kai lead Dranzer towards them and the mare jumped over them gracefully and without difficulty. Kai looked up when he head someone applause. It was Miguel and he was sitting on top of Dark Gargoyle, the black stallion was scraping his hoove on the ground impatiently, making his muscles ripple like tidal waves. His long straight manes flew up when the stallion shook his mighty head. 'Easy boy.'Miguel said soothingly as he petted the stallion's neck.

He put him in a trot and led him over to Kai, Dranzer snorted a bit. 'She's a beautiful creature and her jumps are amazing.' Miguel complimented. Kai smiled at him, 'Thank you.' Dranzer whinnied and snorted making Kai laugh while Miguel looked confused. 'She is flattered by your words.'he explained. Miguel chuckled. Dark Gargoyle snorted impatiently as he tried to turn but the blonde Lord would have none of that. 'He is a bit impatient is he not?'Kai said smiling. 'Oh he is always like this when he wants to run.'Miguel said. 'Dranzer does that too, she loves running in valleys and large meadows.'Kai said as he petted the red mare who whinnied as if agreeing with him.

'Well then would you like to join me on a run through the meadows?'Miguel asked charmingly. 'Of course.'Kai said, he turned to his mare. 'What do you say girl one run before we go back?' Dranzer reared a bit in excitement. Miguel laughed and Kai found it was pleasant to hear, he blushed as he thought that. Do not even go there, it will only bring trouble, he said to himself as he shook his head. 'I will take that as a yes then.'Miguel said as he steered Dark out of the paddock and Kai followed him on Dranzer. Miguel led them to a great meadow that oversaw a large part of the vegetable, wheat and grain fields. 'Ready?'Miguel asked. Kai gave him a sincere smile wich Miguel found absolutey stunning, he could not help but think that it made the mena even more beautiful and a desire to hold the mena in his arms and kiss him overwhelmed him. What am I thinking?, the blonde thought as he shook those thoughts away.

'Let's go.'

They both encouraged their horses into a gallop. Together they rode towards the setting sun feeling free as birds. Kai closed his eyes as he felt the wind caress his skin and the way his hair flew around. He felt so free, so alive and he wished this feeling would never end. Kai looked besides him seeing Miguel enjoying the run as much as he did, his smile was large and happy. Beneath them they could feel their horses work their muscles as they tried to best each other and they came out of the sadle to help them a bit. They didn't know how long they rode nor did they care for now they were free.

But as always all good things come to an end and they slowed the horses down, turned around and went back home in a slow step. During the ride they started talking to each other and found out they had a lot of things in common. Their love for animals, their love for freedom and their hate for their duties. Together they stepped into the stables took off their horses' gear and put it in the sadle room and then they continued to brush them until they shined. And during diner, wich was now in the company of Oliver, Mystel, Claude, Tala and Bryan, they all could see something more than friendship brewing between the two young adults. After diner Miguel, personally, brought Kai to his room.

The young mena turned around as he opened the door to his room. 'I really enjoyed today and I hope you really don't mind me staying here.'he said. Miguel smiled reassuringly at him. 'I enjoyed it too and I'm actually glad you decided to stay or otherwise I would not have known how great you are. You're a wonderful, honest person, Kai.'Miguel said. Kai felt that familiar arrow of guilt hit him in his heart as he thought about how he had come here and how he had lied to everyone, he was not a wonderful person nor was he honest. But he just smiled lightly at the blonde. 'Goodnight.'the mena said.

'Goodnight Kai, sweet dreams.'Miguel said as he watched Kai go into his room and close the door. He smiled to himself as he wandered into his own bedroom. And as the blonde fell asleep he unconciously thought of the mena sleeping just a few rooms away from him and how they both had shared their freedom in the meadow.

No one else, just the two of them.


Okidoki that's it for chapter 3 and hope you all enjoyed it! X3 X3 and here's the notice I promsied in the beginning. I just copied it from the first chappie so I hope no one gets confused anymore. X3 and please forgive for any spelling mistakes I am still learning to how to avoid them or simply not have them so baer with me, X3

Mena: is a submissive/uke male

Uke males get the female titling if they are of nobility.

And yes this is going to be mpreg and how they give birth and everything, much like a woman only from the backside, savvy? X3 X3

And the dress thing you know how those woman and girls wear those beautiful dresses in the middle ages? Well that's the same for uke males only that at the front there is a split so you can see a pants underneath it, it shows both their feminine as their manly side, following me so far? Good, X3.

Okay now I hope you'll all ...

Review! X3
