ii. DAISUKE: Gifts

As was expected of me, or of anyone in my situation I did follow the advice of keeping my enemy closer so I can guard her at all times.

But then it aggravates me because I can't seem to stop them from being close. Like what is unfolding before my eyes right now.

"Gifts from his royal highness came pouring in like it is rainfall," Cinderella's handmaidens were happy with what they deemed as my disposal underneath Cinderella's status.

I glared at them, but they didn't even mind it now. It is true, she got more gifts in a day from Daisuke than I ever had in a week.

Even the pesky guards are not around to protect me from these parasites any longer. The king has stopped commanding them to hover over me.

To be honest, he even granted my request to be alone in my chambers. He finally separated from me, and not even his shadow is something I rarely see.
