Chapter 23 - Entering The Ronstine’s Household Part Two

As soon as the gate opened and the three of us walked through, a horse carriage was already waiting for us. The carriage itself was rather large compared to what I had expected. The interior was just as big as the living room I had back in Japan. Although small for a living room, for a carriage, it was definitely large and spacious. Able got in first and then helped Emily in before reaching out his hand to me and helping me up. But for some reason when Alissa went to get on he ignored her and sat down. I was kind of confused as to why he was acting this way. But me being me I went forward and helped Alissa up which brought a smile to her scowling face.

"Rei, I must warn you to watch out for my cousin..." Able suddenly said.

"Oh? I am guessing the issue at the gate was due to her?" I asked. I mean this was a given since his cousin was one of the villianess in Magical Love who caused a lot of trouble for Alissa. Able's cousin, Sara was a purebred spoiled rich girl. She was Able's second cousin. In Magical Love she had fallen in love with Able when they were young at first sight and from then on, she would try to attach herself to Able always saying she would marry him when they got older.

Able, of course, wanted nothing to do with this and rejected outright not holding anything back. But she still believed that Able would look her way and ask for her hand in marriage. But when she saw Able flirting with Alissa, her anger boiled and made her want to kill Alissa. She tried many schemes only to have Alissa saved right in the nick of time by Able. Thinking of this I felt my new life at the Ronstine estate may be threatened at every turn…

Able blushed and nodded his head. "Yes, it was her. She has it in her head that I belong to her. I have no idea why this is since I have never done anything to bring such a reaction on. But I promise you can live in this house at ease. If anyone causes you trouble you can show them this."

Able pulled out a golden emblem. It had the Ronstine family crest engraved into it. This was no ordinary emblem, it represented the master of the house, the main family. I was startled and couldn't help but ask: "Able, are you sure?"

"Yes, Rei, I want you to know that I am serious about our engagement. I know you have other feelings, but I am willing to wait..."

"Ahem! Did you forget I am here Sir Able?" Alissa cut Able off so he couldn't finish his words. In a way, I was thankful she did otherwise my poor little heart might have exploded. His tone of voice, the way he looked at me, every action he did just now was sucking me in and making my heart thump nonstop.

To be honest I probably should tell him that I am now willing to give us a try. But at the same time, I am afraid of the what if. So I guess I can only go with the flow and hope that my little love life that had just started to bloom will not wither and die before it even has a chance to see the sun.

Able blushed when Alissa spoke up which I found rather cute. The funny thing was that Emily who was sitting next to me was completely red in the face more so than myself. But as I was revealing in the peaceful atmosphere a thought came to my mind. "Able… If your cousin does not back down am I allowed too..."

"Roast her!" Able cut me off and said seriously, without any hesitation. "If she tries to do anything to you after I warn her, you can do as you please. Besides my father, my words are law within this estate. So Rei, judge the situation and act as you wish. I will back you up. In my house, you are free to do as you please. I only ask that you do not blow the place up since it would take a while to rebuild."

At Able's words, I couldn't help but chuckle. "I promise to not take the house down with me."

The journey from the main gate to the front entrance of the mansion took almost fifteen minutes. The scenery outside the window was mainly a wooded area. I could hear the clashing of swords and drill calls off in the distance. This allowed me to know that there was a training ground somewhere within the grounds. The front of the mansion spread out across a large area. It was three stories high and each floor was filled with windows stretching many meters in both directions. It had a large overhang over the front door that was high enough to allow even this large carriage to pull right up underneath it. Large white pillars held this overhang up giving it more of a castle-like feel than a mansion.

When the carriage stopped, and the door opened, I was met with a long line of maids, butlers, and a middle aged couple holding hands waiting by the front of the door. One old man with a short, clean-cut hairstyle and a grey mustache came forward and bowed. "Young Master, the Madam and Master are waiting." He raised his head and looked up at the open door and was startled to see not just one young lady but three in total. I could tell he was trying to figure out which one was the new Young Miss of the house.

Able pushed past Alissa almost knocking her out of the carriage causing her to snort out in anger. "Grandpa Lutz! Ignore the brutish girl in the front. Rei, come meet Grandpa Lutz, he has been working for my family since my grandfather's time. You can also call him Grandpa Lutz."

"Able you bastard if you treat me this way how are you going to treat Rei in the future!? You do realize I am a lady too, right?" Alissa roared out in anger.

"Hmm? When did a second lady show up? All I see is a snake trying to steal my future wife."
