Buttercup's POV

He looked really scary, as he was glaring at us. He helped the Fauna up, who gasped and bowed, "Your Majesty. I'm sorry...I didn't prepare your bouquet today."

Your Majesty...that must mean...

He just shyly smiled and looked down at the ground, but then he looked quickly back up, "That is quite alright, Mr. Bone. I would like to know if everyone is ok." He smiled at me especially.

Danny stood up, "Your Majesty, I'm sorry for you to have seen that. But see you...this Fauna attacked me-"

"THAT IS LIE!" I yelled and he looked at me with those light purple eyes, and I forgot what kind of situation I was in...I think Belle knew him...I saw him...on the way to her place after I lost the twins. He was a Prince...oh no...if Danny calls me a serf or if he recognizes me...

"And this-" Danny was silence when the Prince held up his hand.

"Excuse me, Lord Daniel," The Prince took a deep breath, he looked like for a second he could shrink in size, he had to be the third Brother, the Fauna in the family. I heard a little but about him, he was extremely shy...and Princess was right, he was pretty...in a way...like a girl...He was just as pretty as Belle and Brianna but I could see that fierceness underneath.

"Your Majesty?" The Fauna asked and that's when I heard the stomach grumbling.

"I must apologize, I am a bit hungry, but Lord Daniel, are you speaking the truth?"

"Yes your majesty." Danny bowed but for once the Prince frown and he looked quite scary.

"Lord Daniel, I beg that you reconsider your answer."

"Your Majesty?"

"I saw everything...I go to this Vendor for two weeks now to get out more and to the wonderful advice of someone...I believe he has the best flowers in the kingdom. But that is besides the point, yesterday I asked him to make a special bouquet for me by 2. I have a very bad habit of not being noticed...So...I saw everything...I saw as this young lady being harassed and then you hit this Young man for pulling you off of her."

"Your Majesty?" Danny was pale, "But she hit me."

He ignored him and said, "I believe, Lord Daniel, that apologies are in order, do you not agree." He smiled a bit, "I believe...to this young lady and this gentlemen." He held me up but looked away, blushing so beet red.

"I'm sorry, to both of you." Danny started to walk away but the silver hair Prince had claws extended out as he grabbed his shoulder.

"Excuse me...I was not going to say this...but..." He looked away again but cleared his throat as Danny turned around, "I did not like your actions...I find it..distasteful, now...If I am not mistaken...this is not the first time that you has bothered this poor lady, " He looked shaken up a bit, like a cautious creature who just discover that there was no where to hide, "My Big Brother shall here about this-"

"No!" I shouted, he looked at me surprised, I still had to know how did he know about me...but...I'm worried, if Butch gets anywhere near Danny, he could expose me, "I'm sorry, you're highness, but I'm ok...if he's ok...I believe Lord Daniel has learned his lesson." I smiled but glared at him, one thing I'll admit about Danny, he can read me...my facial expressions at least. But honestly I wasn't trying to save him, mostly me. If Butch came after Danny, him and his snobby brat of a father could reveal my secret...and I rather wear a thousand dresses than deal with that jerk being angry with me or even disappointed. I don't know why?

"Oh yes...I'm really sorry." I'm guessing Danny got it, that should cool him off for a while. Danny just left and so was the Silver Hair Prince.

"I feel so awful, he had his heart dead set on that bouquet, it was a weird request too: lavender, forget-me-nots, and asylums."

My eyes widened, this could be just a coincidence...but those were all purple...and Belle's favorite flowers, this might be suicide but I waved and went after him.

"Your highness! Please wait," I bowed right in front of him.

He was blushing again but he smiled, "Oh Countess Black Rose, it is a pleasure to finally meet you."

Oh Black Rose...that's me

"Oh yeah thanks, how do you know me?"

"Well...I've seen His painting of you-" He covered his mouth, his blushed intensified, "I apologize, you really did not need to know that."

"He painted me?" I don't know if I should find that creepy or sweet.

"Oh yes...you look just as pretty as your painting..." He smiled but then he was continuing to walk on but I followed him...Ok I know Butch...Brick...I heard from the Princess endless chatter is a hot head...Boomer is super sensitive...or something...and the third...what was his name...Animal...animal name...oh right!

"Now Mr. Bone...I was wondering how long it could take for the flowers." Beast asked.

"I'm sorry if I failed you your majesty but asylums aren't in bloom yet."

"Oh...you must be Beast...I mean Prince Beast...Your Highness...I might be able to help. I just need some flowers...that's all."

He gave me a look and then just nodded. The vendor have me some flowers and I lifted up my hand..."Changus Flores purpl."

Instantly the flowers turned to lavender, asylums and forget-me-nots, this Bone fauna wrapped and created this bouquet. It was pretty...cool...I'll admit...only to myself. Beast just bowed and paid him and walked off, but then he looked back and had his arm out. The Fauna gave me a bouquet of the buttercups.

"Are you not coming Countess? Will you not see big brother? There are a lot of women and it is out my way but...It would be nice for him to see you...no wonder he calls you enchantress...you are an Earth Fairy...and quite talent as well ."

There it goes again, my face burning up, "Oh no no, I kinda have to go."

"Then would you like me to escort you then-"

I didn't mean to shout, "NO...I mean...no...I'm fine, I'll be fine, besides you have to give some lucky lady those...nice flowers...and stuff...I'm sure the lucky lady...I'll just shut up now."

Beast started smiling, really smiling, "Oh my Countess...do you think so? I hope so...she told me herself her favorite flowers and somehow...that she loves pumpkins...and bunnies are the evil demonic cotton tails...who made a pact with the devil to destroy her garden..are something. It was funny because all I said was hi."

"Oh yeah...that sounds like Belle." I mumbled under my breath, I didn't think he could hear me.

Beast looked really stunned, "That is her name, Countess...do you know her?"

Oh shit, I'm about to give myself away.

"No...no...my cousin's maid...she knows her and we are friends...I mean servants...she's a great cook." I was stumbling all over the place but Beast just smiled and was blushing pink now, "Oh...look at the time...I really should get going. But look I'm totally in your debt your Highness...I mean it."

"Wait, You say you are in my debt...normally I would not do this but I have a favor to ask, well...I invited you and your friends to the circus, dearest Countess,"He pulled off a gold ring, not the royal one, just a plain gold ring.

"Your Highness, no."

"Please Countess, I am not ashamed to say that you make big brother happy again, for once since he was 13 and chosen to be The Crown Prince-" He stopped himself and that beet red blush came back, "Countess...I know people...think of it as animal intuition...I believe you to be an honest person."

I gulped at that, if only he knew, "Your Highness, I don't-"

"Please excuse me, but I do know what I am talking about...show this to the guard and you are in, I shall explain to him myself. I was wondering if you could give this...to-"

"Yeah, sure." I should to spare him and myself that blush and nervous gulp of him, "I'll give it to her...and invite Mistress Belle to the circus as well."

"Yeah...ok."

"Thank you, Countess Buttercup-"Beast blushed again, my heart just stopped, "I apologize...but seeing you with those flowers...I do not know why but I can see you as that...But I apologize and thank you...I hope we shall meet at the Circus and dazzle Big Brother." He grabbed my hand and put his forehead to it, and went his way.


Belle screamed so loud as she held the bouquet in her hands, I covered my ears as Belle was dancing around the Kitchen...

"He gave me Flowers...you know Blossy got flowers too...Pink Roses, her fave...and you got flowers too."

"Actually a vendor gave me these. But Belle, you know he's a Prince right?"

"Oh c'mon, I'm not stupid unless,"Belle was looking around, when she came up close and whispered," Unless...the man in the blue shirt said something...it's a lie. And now Countess Black Rose De la Quell, are you ready to meet your beloved Prince again."

My heart was thumping again...and my face was on fire, and I tried so hard to fight it but my smile came as I covered Belle's mouth.

"Don't be stupid, I just own him one ok. I would have been in Danny's Manor by now."

"Isn't he precious...he's so cute...he won a pie eating contest...and he's adorably shy...he's a precious pumpkin...Precious...Pumpkin...Pumpkin..Pumpkin...Pie... Damn, I just had an idea Cupie." Belle grabbed my arm, "But like at my flowers..."

Lady Morbucks came into the Kitchen, seeing the flowers...but she only grunted and gave me this icy cold look, "So nice of you to finally return. Cinderella, I believemy husband's books need dusting.

I sighed as Belle put both of our bouquets in a vase with water. I grabbed a rag and walked into the study...It was pretty big...Like a Library at a monastery that I heard about, the shelves weren't that tall. I begin to start dusting as I saw some of the books that I recognizes: The Sports of other countries or an old secret favorite: Fairy Tales...there was even scary stories...some on science and philosophy, nothing I cared about really. Except maybe the fairy tales and sports.

"Whoa...Kansai is known for Wrestling...of course. Asheia is known for Jousting-"

"I didn't know you could read."

I turned to see Lord Morbucks right there...how long has he been there? I put the book back and bowed my head.

"I'm sorry, I didn't-"

"Oh no...please don't apologize, I'm just stunned, I suddenly be...I bet your mother taught you. Oh yes," He was looking at me so strange, as he touched my cheek, "So lovely. How is Brianna?"

"She ok. I'm sorry, I'll get back to work."

"No please stay." He touched my shoulders, "Really I don't mind."
