Mikan's POV
I went to the kitchen with my friends. Before I reached the sink, I fainted.
Natsume's POV
All of the princes were bothered because of a loud thud. We all went to the kitchen to see Mikan lying on the ground surrounded by the 4. Luna pushes us and pulled Mikan that made woke her up. I was about to follow her when Ruka's maid pulled my arm. "This has nothing to do with you," she said looking on the floor. "Please eat your lunch", the 4 of them said in unison. We all followed but with pity in our faces.
Mikan's POV
I'm being pulled by Luna to the guest room she always uses to hit us. "Do you think this is funny?! You have humiliated me in front of all the royals!", she said while slapping me. I felt silent.I don't want to talk to her. "Answer me!". "N-n-no ma'am", i said while whipping the blood near my mouth. "Tonight you will come here after Prince Natsume's asleep. This is just the beginning of my punishment. We will continue it later. Got that?!", she said then left the room.
Natsume's POV
As I as walking towards my room, I heard someone shouting in a guest room next to Ruka's. "Tonight you will come here after Prince Natsume's asleep. This is just the beginning of my punishment. We will continue it later. Got that?!". I heard a familiar voice. It was Luna's voice. She came out of the room not noticing me at the left of the door. A brunette behind still not noticing me.
Time Skip
At My Room
"Good night your highness", Mikan said while turning of the light. "Good night", I said as I faked my sleeping. After a few minutes she left the room and I followed quietly behind. She went inside the guest room and the door was slightly open. I took a peek and saw what Luna is doing to her.
Mikan's POV
She pushed me to a glass. I had new cuts everywhere. The mirror was shattered into pieces. She slapped and punched me. I had blood everywhere. She threw glasses to me and it hit my neck. Blood was dripping from my neck to my clothes. She pushed me into a wall again but this time I had a wound on my head. There was blood everywhere. Luna's face was covered in blood. "Look at what you did to my pretty face!", she slapped me once agin and left the room leaving me to one corner of the room. I can't move my legs at all. My old bruises was opened again. I see glass anywhere my body.
Natsume's POV
Before Luna went out of the room I went back to my room and prepared clothes for me because I knew I would be covered in blood. I went back to see that Luna already left Mikan. I went inside the room to see Mikan sitting on one side of the corner. I saw shattered glass on her body. I lifted her fragile body not caring that my pajamas will be covered in blood. I lift her to my room passing the rooms of Ruka, Kitsu, Koko and Yuu's. There maids was outside their rooms crying because of what she did to Mikan.
I slowly put Mikan on my bed then she sat up slowly. "Your highness, please let me handle this", she said while bowing and walking to her room. I quickly held her arm. "No, just let me handle this", I said then she followed. She sat on my bed and I grabbed the nearest towel and washed it. I started wiping the towel startng from bottom to top. I saw the scar on her neck and quickly kissed it. She blushed then hid her neck with her hands. "You're so cute", I said while kissing her forehead. I didn't know what I had said. Both of us were shocked and were blushing. I cleaned all her scars and let her change clothes.
She went out of the bathroom wearing an orange short and a simple pink shirt. "Sleep here with me tonight", I said while tapping the space near me. She blushed then nodded. She smelled like strawberries, my favorite. "Thank you, your highness" she said while closing her eyes then drifted to sleep. "You're welcome", I said before I hugged her and kissed her forehead before I drifted off to sleep.
