Chapter 10
To sum up all the reviews: “I finally get it!”
Because of our conversation during the day, I felt gloomy .
I shook my head, ‘I can’t be like this . ’
The day had already ended, and Maria wasn’t in the room anymore . A night, all by myself . No nuisances .
Since that’s the case, I decided that there was only one thing I could do .
“Let’s see, I’ll go look for a hidden door to snap myself out of this!”
I know the location of this room within the castle . It’s only natural since I wasn’t blindfolded when I was brought here .
And I roughly knew the structure of the castle . Sorry to disappoint, but the Royal Family has no secret places . Coincidentally, it seems that this room is a secret room, and nowhere on the map did it indicate what type of room this was . It was just disguised as storage .
But the room beside this one is different . The room next door should have a secret door that leads to this storeroom .
In other words, if the other side has a secret door, I should be able to enter it from here as well .
“Hehehehe, don’t look down on me!”
Being confined next to such a room, it’s like you’re asking me to escape .
Now, beloved door-chan, I wonder where you are .
Despite wandering and searching for it aimlessly, I couldn’t find it . That’s to be expected . It is a secret door .
Let’s first try to crawl on the floor to examine it .
“Oh!”
I found a small door on the floor!
It’s a little heavy, but with a little bit of elbow grease, I managed to open it .
“…It’s just an underground storage . ”
Don’t make something so convenient in the room I’m confined in!
I closed the door as I lamented .
“After that is…”
I looked around restlessly . If we’re talking about things that’re suspicious…
“That’d be the bookshelves, huh?”
I went towards the bookshelves as I murmured that .
Bookshelves by the wall should have a secret door . Looking at it, it looks suspicious .
And the books on the bookshelves look very suspicious as well .
“Though it’s only beautiful, love stories . ”
Is this because of the prince? I don’t like romance novels . Does he want me to read this and study hard? To have me awaken to feelings of love?
Clearly understanding his intentions, I was frustrated with them, and I didn’t read any of the books here, not even once . I’m never going to read one after this either .

Just like that, I thought that the bookshelves would move, but they didn’t . That’s to be expected .
“It probably has a mechanism to it . ”
I examined the bookshelves, looking for the mechanism . Though from the titles of the books, there was nothing here except romance .
I felt unpleasant, but I have to check .
I confirmed the titles, one by one .
“Hmm?”
There’s one book that’s different from the rest . Without thinking about it, I said the title of that book .
“Prince Clark’s Diary…”
Ah, it’s probably that dangerous guy’s .
Despite thinking that I should ignore it, it hatefully caught my eye .
Should I take a peek, a little bit, just a tiny bit…?
I picked up the book, thinking it might have weakly caught onto something .
Click .
“Eh?”

When I unconsciously spoke, the bookshelf moved to the side for a moment . And just like that, what came into view was the next room .
What is this, such a cool mechanism!
I threw the book I had in hand towards the next room while feeling slightly amazed .
The pressure lifted from my chest as I dived into the next room .
“Finally!”
Feeling like the protagonist of an adventure story is fun . Me, you’re so amazing to find a secret door!
While I was celebrating, I looked towards the room’s door to quickly leave and froze .
“C-Clark-sama…?”
The prince smiled as he stood in front of the door .
“Hey there, Letty . Took you longer than I expected . ”
Clark-sama stepped towards me .
I moved back for every step closer that Clark-sama took .
“Isn’t it too mean of you to throw away my diary?”
He picked up the book I had thrown away as he moved towards me .
“Wh-why is Clark-sama here?”

“Isn’t it obvious? It’s cause I know that Leticia would definitely think of using this secret door . ”
Ahhhhhhhhh, scary, scary!
I felt fear as Clark-sama gradually came closer .
“Isn’t it the best when my cute Leticia comes to me of her own will? That’s why I specifically moved to this room . ”
Looking at the room, I could definitely see a bed and a table .
And then finally, with a bam, I was cornered into the wall .
As Clark-sama cornered me into the wall, he took one of the books from the bookshelves from this side .
The bookshelf closed quietly .
He cut off my retreat!
Clark-sama whispered into my ears as my face turned ghastly .
“Come, Letty, the night is long, right?”
Right now is probably the biggest crisis in Leticia’s, the Duke’s daughter, life!
LMAO . That’s all I’m gonna say .
Also, schedule for this series has changed . It’s now every Thursday and Sunday @ 11AM PST .
E/N: In hindsight, the trap was kind of obvious when she conveniently found Clark’s diary of all things on a bookshelf of romance novels . You would think Leticia would figure out most of her escape attempts would be failures by this point .
