Ailwin looked at Mika's smiling face and couldn't help, but to laugh at himself. It seems he needs to watch himself around young girls now.
Shifting his attention towards his friend, Ailwin felt sorry for him.
Truthfully, Braeden wouldn't be facing Lord Mano if it weren't for him trying to get back at Mikaela.
Taking mercy on his friend, Ailwin uses one of Mika's tactics and causes a scene.
"General Gilwenys!..." Ailwin bangs on the side table, and his teacup goes crashing to the ground.
"I, as your Commander, am deeply ashamed to have to as my general. Betting with a young girl to enter Ash City, is unbecoming of someone of your status. Apologize immediately for your actions!.."
Ailwin abrupt turnaround caught everyone by surprise, including Braeden.
"... what...but...Ailwin..."
"Did you not hear what I said!? Apologize!" Ailwin gave a subtle wink to Braeden for him to play along.
"Oh!...yes, Lord Mano I am very sorry for my actions towards your daughter. If there is anything I can do to make up for it, please let me know." Bowing deep, Braeden waited for Lord Mano's answer.
With Braeden sincere apology and bowing, Mano was left in a predicament. He didn't really want to start something with the royal family, yet didn't want his Amara clan to be slighted by them. Caught off guard, Mano didn't know what to do?
"Lord Mano, allow me to make amends for my subordinate's mistakes."
"How?" Mano would allow this whole situation to come to an end as long as the apology fit the Amara clan's status.
"Lord Mano, what General Gilwenys did was insincere towards a fellow Kaia citizen. As Commander and Prince of Kaia Kingdom allow me to show you and your daughter my sincere feelings...."
Mika felt a shiver run down her back, she didn't know what Ailwin was going to say, but she knew she wasn't going to like it.
"by proposing marriage." Ailwin bowed to Lord Mano before standing up and smiling at Mika.
Since you like my cookies so much, you can have them all the time. Mika read the message on Ailwin's face.
*Tsk* Mika suck her teeth and rolled her eyes.
I don't want your cookies.
Ailwin chuckled.
Lair.
Everyone missed the little convo between the two with the bombshell Ailwin drop on them.
"Fifth Prince, w-what do you mean by this?" Mano tries to collect himself the best he could, but he was here to pick up his daughter not to entertain a marriage proposal.
"Actually what I said, Lord Mano. I want to marry your daughter."
"Why?..."Mano was confused.
"Daddy!" Mika snapped at her father.
"N-No...Mika, I didn't mean it that way...A-Anyone would be proud to have you as their wife..."
"Hmph!" Mika turned away from her flubbing father.
"Hahaha...Don't worry Lord Mano, I know what you meant."
"Then please, answer my question."
"Although your daughter is younger than me by six years, we were able to talk to each other pleasantly. I enjoy spending time with Miss Amara, and I believe we can be good to each other. Please, I ask for her hand in marriage." Finish saying his peace, Ailwin walked to his seat as he pulled Braeden behind him.
Braeden was so shocked by Ailwin's words that he was still in a ninety-degree bow. It wasn't until Ailwin grabbed his arm and dragged him away from the center of the meeting hall, did he realize how stupid he looked.
Mika watched as Ailwin sat in his seat before smirking at him.
You think my father is going to grant you marriage to me? Ha!
Ailwin could read Mika's scoff loud and clear from his seat.
Yes,... I'm a catch.
Mika rolled her eyes.
You may be a catch, but I'm his daughter. You should have learned this lesson already...
Ailwin shook his head at Mika's naivety.

Yes, you are his daughter, and wouldn't he want the best for you...And guess what Mika, I am the best.
Mano, who has been contemplating Ailwin's proposal for the past few minutes, was oblivious to their muted communication.
When finally did find his answer, Ailwin was already waiting for his reply.
"Prince Ailwin, I love my daughter..." Mika smiled brightly in Ailwin's face. "...her happiness brings me great joy in my life."
That's right you tell him, daddy! Mika smirked.
"I never thought a prince would propose to her..."
Daddy, you are dragging. Just reject him already!
"Though I am surprised, I am also quite happy..."
Uh...daddy? Mika looked at Mano and saw a bright smile on his face that lit up his eyes.
"As Mikaela's father and clan leader..."
Daddy, no... Mika felt a sense of foreboding.
"I would be honored...."
D-Daddy, no...don't do it! Mika's eye was growing large as she realized where her father was heading with his words.
"to gladly accept your marriage proposal." Mano got up and walked to Ailwin's side to shake hands.
"Mano, Prince Ailwin, this is a cause for celebration! Durlan, have the chefs prepare a feast for the Jonas' homecoming and Mika's engagement." Turning back to his friend, Tasar pulled Mano out the door.
"Why don't we go to my office and you guys finish up the engagement details, while we let the kids rest from their journey?"
By the time Tasar finished his words, they were already out the door.
Mika sat there stunned, did her father just accept...?
Liking the expression on her face, Ailwin walked over and sat in Mano's empty seat.
"Mika, I told you I'm the best." With that said, Ailwin got up and walked out the door with Braeden following closely behind.
When only Jonas and Saavi were left in the room, as the Durlan and the servant went to prepare for the feast, Mika let out all her anger.
"Best my ass!.... How could dad do this to me!?..... How dare he propose!?.... I'm only thirteen!...." Jonas and Saavi watched as Mika went through a dozen arguments and complaints within seconds of each other before finally coming to a stop.
Seeing Mika has finally calmed down, Saavi thought to be the voice of reason.
"Young miss...?"
*Sigh*
"Yes, Saavi..."
"I don't think it would be so bad to be engaged to Prince Ailwin..."
"Hmm..."
"He did save you from Lord Kendel..."
Oh, that's right Saavi doesn't know I saved myself.
"He also helped punish Lord Kendel for you..."
That's because I blackmailed him into it, plus he got something out of it too!
"And he also went out of his way to escort all the way back to the Udava clan..."
Well, that should be the least he could do as a prince of Kaia when he sees one of his citizen in need.
"Plus, all those times you schemed against him he didn't hold it against you..."
"What are you trying to say Saavi...?"
"Well...when will you find such a pushover again...?"
Ailwin, who was walking towards Lord Tasar's office under the guidance of a servant, let out a whopper of a sneeze.
"Are you alright?" Braeden asked.
"Yeah." Ailwin rubbed his nose, trying to relieve the itchiness.
Looking at the servant in front of them, Braeden steps a little bit closer to Ailwin.
"Are you really going to marry that girl....?"
"I proposed, didn't I?"
"Yes...but..."
"Look, it's only engagement for now, if she turns out to be not who I believe her to be then I will a null."
