The Lady Gangster’s Mission For The Prince

4. Queen’s Clothes



Adira woke up early the next day, but her flight time was noon. She also realized that she hadn’t showered yet.

As she was walking down the hall, she saw the prince staring into the distance. “Do they also wake up early in the morning?”

She came up behind the prince. “Good morning, Prince Dylan!”

He was shocked and slightly surprised when his forehead suddenly wrinkled. “Why are you still here? Shouldn’t you have left my palace?”

“Your father’s palace. You’re just a prince, not a king yet, so you don’t own King Stephen’s palace for now.”

He just turned his back on her and didn’t say anything because she thought he was a little bit hurt by what she said. She looked at his shoes, which were smoother than hers. The shoes she’s wearing still have mud stuck to them. His pants looked like they had been ironed several times. His top was princely clothing, with some hanging on the shoulders and in the front with fabric sewn right on the way he’s wearing the top. She looked up at his head with a stiff hat fit for a prince, but he suddenly turned, and she raised an eyebrow at him.

“Can you get away from me? We are not friends for you to stand there for a long time!”

She frowned. “Who said we were friends? You’re the only one who’s assuming for the two of us.”

He faced her angrily. “Why is your speech so different from how people speak here? Don’t you know that what you say is disrespectful?”

She walked and got a little closer to his face. Both of them are only a few inches apart in height. He was shocked by what she did. “You said we were different, so you have no right to demand that I change the behavior I brought from my country because you are a prince. Remember, I am the one who will follow us during training, so you will not get special treatment from me. ” He took a few steps back.

“I don’t know why my father chose you. From what you said earlier about the gangster, it sounds like you can’t be trusted.”

She grinned. “Trust me, I’ll be your ally more than anyone in this world, even though I’m from the gangster world. The moment I see you have a behavior I like, I might even serve you all my life.”

“No thanks; even if the arrow isn’t for me, I’ll block my body; just don’t be with you for long.”

She was shaken in her head by the prince’s behavior. “You’re so lucky if I do that. Then you refused to grab that opportunity. Don’t you know that in my country they’re willing to pay a lot for my services, but you, if I see that you have the attitude that I like from you, I am ready to die just to save you from the one who wants you to die.” Dylan didn’t answer. “I have a question. You’re making a lot of noise, so I just remembered it now.”

In Dylan’s mind, “This woman’s thinking is not good anymore. I’m the one to blame when she’s the one who’s saying so much.”

“Do you have any clothes that I can wear? Before I leave, I’m going to take a shower.”

“What kind of clothes?”

“T-shirts, pants like that.”

“I don’t have the clothes you said.”

She frowned.  “Don’t say you always wear that.” I pointed to what he was wearing now.

“You’re right I always wear this kind of clothing. ”

She slapped her forehead. “You’re still wearing that, even sleeping like that?”

“I have other clothes before I sleep. Why?”

She shook her head. “I think you’ll have a hard time training if you’re always wearing that. You need to wear light clothes first so you can move freely for a while.”

He looked at her as if judging. “Why do you want to know about my clothes too? Do you want to be my princess too?” Prince Dylan was stunned by what he said.

“I don’t want to wear a gown and put lipstick on my lips, so thank you for your offer, but that’s not going to happen.” The prince just closed his eyes.

“From your maid here at the palace, maybe I can borrow?”

“It’s not possible; they only brought a few clothes to the palace, and then you’ll try to borrow from them.”

“I can replace it or I will buy it to exchange.”

Dylan seems to have had enough patience with her. “Come with me, and don’t bother me anymore.” He walked and she followed, but he just went into his father’s office and she was left outside.

Later, he came out again. “Follow me.”

He walked again, and she followed him. They stopped at a big red door. Dylan also opened the door because no soldier was guarding that door. When they entered the room, it turned out to be a dressing room full of women’s clothes.

“You’re the only child, aren’t you? Why are there clothes like this here? Do you use them too?” He gave me a bad look.

“These are my mother’s clothes. I informed the king that maybe you could wear one of the queen’s clothes, and he agreed.”

“By the way, where is your mother? I didn’t see her inside the palace, even on my first day here. ”

Dylan was silent for a few seconds. “She’s gone, so hurry and choose what you want to wear!” He was irritated.

She didn’t even try to ask more because it seemed like she already knew what he meant, so she just chose simple clothes, but everything was gorgeous even without the design. “This dress is so social; even in everyday use, it’s like going to a party,” she whispered.

She saw a long black coat, and the clothes she wore inside the coat couldn’t be called a T-shirt and black pants. “I finally found something simple.” She took it and showed it to Dylan. “This is my choice.”

He just looked at the clothes she chose and nodded. Then they went out. He didn’t say anything anymore, so she said goodbye. She went straight to the room reserved for her and took a shower.

Adira did not come out of the room for almost two hours, and when she came out, she was already dressed and on her way to the king’s office to get her passport.

As soon as she opened the door, Dylan’s forehead was already wrinkled. “You are not in your country. Why did you suddenly enter here without permission?”

“I’m sorry, dear prince, the plane will leave me if I do that.” She smiled at the same time, but he spoke again.

“Your hair is still wet. Why is it already tied up?”Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

She looked at King Stephen, who was also wondering about his son. “You see a lot, prince, but my answer is that I don’t let my hair down, even when it’s wet. I tie it up. Did I answer your question properly?”

He looked away in disgust because of her answer. She asked the king. “Can I get my passport? My flight is almost here; I have to be there before noon, and I only have 1 hour and 30 minutes. ”

“This is your passport. Be careful on your trip. When you leave the palace, someone will wait for you outside in a car to take you to the airport. Don’t worry, it only takes about an hour to get there. ”

She took the passport off the table. “And before you leave, when will you be back here?” asked King Stephen.

“I’m not sure, but it’s easy to book a flight here, so I won’t have any trouble.”

“Then you can leave.” She was about to walk when she looked at the prince. His annoyance with her still hadn’t disappeared. “Dear prince!” He turned and looked at her. “By the time I come back, you should be ready because what you saw in my behavior now was different from what I will show when I come back here, so you are lucky and you have seen this side of me, and if it does come out, it won’t be often.” She smiled big before leaving that room, and when she saw the car, she immediately got in it.

Meanwhile, Prince Dylan remains stunned at the location where Adira was earlier.

“Dylan, are you okay?” asked King Stephen.

He returned to the present. “I’m fine, Father,” he answered in a low tone.

“I didn’t think I had taken a beautiful young lady. Her smile is beautiful, isn’t it? I’ve only seen Adira smile today, in the few days she’s been here. ”

Dylan’s frown returned. “That’s not true, Father. Her smile was just a fake. ”

His father laughed loudly. “It’s hard to fake a smile, my son. You can tell if a smile is fake because it’s hard, forced, and there’s sadness behind it, so I think what she showed was sincere. ”

He nodded. “By the way, Father, I need loose clothes for training.”

King Stephen frowned. “Why?”

“Because that young lady said that I needed to wear loose clothes so that I could move easily.”

He nodded. “Then I’ll just order one of our maids to buy ordinary clothes as well as your pants.”

He nodded and stood up. “Do you have anything else to say, Father?”

“No more, you can go back to your room.”

“Then I can leave you.” He walked out of the room and continued to his room.

Meanwhile, Adira quickly boarded the plane, and indeed, the passport that the king had made was valid because she had no problems or was stopped by the staff inside the airport. She will wait five hours before she lands in her country.

Five hours later, the plane she was on landed safely, so she immediately looked for a ride home. She traveled for two hours again before the taxi stopped in front of Simon’s house because she didn’t have any money to pay the taxi driver.

She got down and told the driver to wait a moment. She knocked on Simon’s door a few times before he opened it. “Pay the taxi driver first. I don’t have any money here, so pay the driver for now,” she said immediately.

He just stopped for a moment, left her outside the house, and paid the taxi driver. When he came back, he looked at me from head to toe. “I didn’t know you were wearing something like that, Adira.”

She just sighed. “I have no choice. I have to change my clothes and take a shower. This is the only simple clothing there is.”

He smiled. “Even simple seems to be expensive.”

“It’s really expensive because the owner of these clothes is a queen, but by the way, when will my mission to Mrs. Torres’s husband be?”

He scratched his head. “Later, at eight o’clock, at a bar where Mr. Torres is always there.”

She sighed. “I won’t be able to rest, but I’m going. The clothes I chose to get in there are also useful. ”

Simon sat on a chair in front of his house. “How was your conversation with the king? Did you agree to what he wanted?”

She looked at the sky. “Yes.”

“The blow by wind has changed, accepting that kind of mission, huh,” he chuckled.

“I have a reason. I accepted even if my rules were not followed in that kind of mission. ”

He nodded. “I’m sure it’s good because you accepted it. Have you eaten yet? I cooked something. You want to eat first.” He stood up and went inside his house. She was stunned for a moment before following Simon inside the house.

The time for Adira’s mission came, and she was ready to finish it immediately because she was going back to Stalwart Castle after her mission. She took her motorbike to the bar. She read the written address provided by Mrs. Torres for information. She knew it was inappropriate for her to ride her motorbike because of her clothes, but she didn’t care.

A few moments later, she was already in front of the bar. She stopped her motorbike in a parking lot, fixed her clothes, and put on the mask that covered half of her face from nose to mouth. She didn’t even bring her two wooden sticks because if Mr. Torres fights, she will use her fist.

“Today is the last day of your betrayal, Mr. Torres, because the moment I go inside, you won’t be able to come here again or meet the woman you always bring inside this bar.” She smirked behind her mask and started walking to go inside the bar.
