The Princess Who Was Married Off To The Prince of Slaughter In Place of Her Sister. While She Was Growing Fairies and Potatoes in The Garden of The Detached Palace, His Highness's Infatuation Began - Episode 26

“I heard that you gave the seeds of plants used for healing potions and antidote potions, as well as the seeds of a cabbage-like plant that grows quickly even in poor soil, to the crown prince of the neighboring country.”

“Excuse me. I did something without consulting you, Leonis-sama.”

“That plant is something you found. What you do with it is up to you.”

Today was perfect weather for farming, and I was busy harvesting potatoes with Lord Leonis since the morning.

Since I’ve finished my work for now, I’ve set up a makeshift table in the corner of the field and am having some tea.

It’s strange that drinking in a place like this tastes better than drinking in the dining room or living room.

Lord Leonis’s work attire has also become quite fitting.

“Besides, from the very beginning, I never thought you would abandon your homeland.”

It seems that Lord Leonis saw right through everything.

“I’ve been constantly causing trouble for Lord Leonis…”

“Are you still worried about when Charlotte threatened you?”

“Yes, I ended up saying a lot of terrible things to Lord Leonis as well…”

“If it’s about me, you don’t have to worry.”

“However… is it fair that only I am not being reprimanded?”

“If you’re going to say that, I’ll punish you.”

“Yes, I will accept any punishment without complaint.”

“Come here and sit here.”

I was beckoned by Lord Leonis and placed on his lap.

“I’m going to punish you now.”

“Yes, anything you need.”

“One thing is that from today, you will call me ‘Leo’ as a nickname.”

“Yes, huh…?”

“I’ll tell you this, you have no right to refuse. This is a punishment. From today on, I’ll also call you ‘Ally.’ Make sure to respond properly when called, understood? Ally?”

“Yes.”

Every time Lord Leonis calls me “Ali,” my heart races.

“The second thing is to always be by my side. And… um… to bear my heir…”

“Yes. ……Wait, what! An heir!?”

When it comes to heirs, it’s children; when it comes to children, it’s childbirth; before childbirth, it’s making children…!

Making a baby…?! Like, doing this, doing that, doing it like this…! Fwa fwa fwa…!!

“I, I think it would be nice to have three children if possible.”

When I looked up, I made eye contact with Lord Leonis, whose face was bright red.

“I’ll wait for your heart to be ready, but you have no right to refuse…!”

“Huh, yes!”

Making a child with Lord Leonis… it’s not that I dislike it, but…! Whoa…!!

My brain felt like it was about to boil over, with all the heat gathering in my head.

“I’m sorry for saying that making a baby is a punishment. No matter what happens, I have no intention of letting you go, and I wanted to convey that… I love you, Ally.”

I was gazed at with a handsome face by Leonis-sama, whispered sweet nothings, and my heart was beating so loudly it was almost deafening.

“Lord Leonis, I…”

“It’s ‘Leo,’ right? I told you to call me that, didn’t I?”

“Le, Leo-sama…! I, I too…! I… I admire you, Leo-sama!”

When I conveyed my feelings, Leo-sama broke into a smile.

It was the cutest smile I’ve ever seen.

When did it start? When did I begin to be interested in him?

When you were told “I love you” in the meeting room?

When you were gathering herbs in the forest?

When riding a horse with two people…?

No… maybe it was when I first met him, when the maid called him a “monster,” and he had those sad eyes.

“Thank you, I’m so happy, Ali!”

Lord Leo’s beautiful face is getting closer…!

Unable to withstand his gaze, I gently closed my eyes.

Immediately after, there was a soft sensation on my lips.

“I’ve always wanted to do this with you.”

After a long kiss, I was embraced by Leo-sama.

“Can I do it one more time?”

“Wait, please! Fer and Claire will be back soon from getting their snacks, so please don’t do any more…!”

Despite my resistance, I was kissed a second time by Leo-sama.

When Fel and Claire came back, they saw me kissing Leo, and Fer got all sulky out of jealousy, while Claire looked at me with a warm gaze… It was quite a hassle.

I wish this lively and peaceful life could continue forever.

――The End――
