(Banas's POV)

I rushed to sneak out of the White Dragon Palace in my maid uniform. Halfway there, I spotted two stunning silver-haired twin maids walking toward me. They gaped in surprise upon seeing me, as if about to speak.

I quickly made a shushing gesture. They silently closed their mouths, understanding. Then, the busty maid whispered, "Is the young lady chasing her Romeo?"

"Pretty much!" I said. Brother Ye is my Romeo!

"Awesome!~ Can we join?" both maids blushed crimson, probably imagining something naughty!

"No! You two are third wheels!" I said with disgust. Bringing such gorgeous maids? Who knows if Brother Ye might get tempted away!

"Then we'll shout about the princess escaping!" the petite maid teased.

"You dare! Luna, Stella!" I snapped. With my damn father's overprotectiveness, I'd never get out! The Luna sisters were obstacles I had to cross!

"Haha! You know we aren't bound by your rules! Being maids here is just boredom relief!" Luna laughed.

"Ugh! Fine, follow me! But don't ruin my date with Brother Ye!" I said angrily. They're my uncle's kids—technically my older sisters! Though they adore maid outfits.

"Of course not! We'll even help!" Stella grinned.

"Hey, this is Brother Ye's chibi doll? So cute! I wanna meet the real him! Let me touch it!" Luna teased, eyeing the doll in my hand and stepping closer.

"Don't you dare touch him!" I dodged back from her!

"Stingy!" Luna chuckled.

"Let's hurry!" Stella urged.

"Yeah! Banas-chan, stick with us. We'll smuggle you out!" Luna replied.

"Okay!" I agreed. Tagging along gave me the best shot.

"Hide behind me, Banas-chan!" Stella laughed, pulling me behind her.

As we walked, an elderly butler in uniform approached. He eyed the Luna sisters and asked, "Where to? Weren't you with the young mistress?"

"Ah, just fetching something from our room!" Luna said, her expression perfectly calm.

"Really, Miss Stella? Who's behind you?" the butler pressed.

"Hehe! A new little maid!" Stella stammered, sweating nervously.

"No! It's the young mistress! Why are you—" The butler collapsed as Luna knocked him out!

"Sister, why?" Stella gasped.

"No choice! He just needs a nap!" Luna sighed with a bitter smile.

"We... go now!" I said. Sorry, old butler, but sacrifices are necessary for success! Well, maybe!

We reached the palace gates, easily fooling the two dim-witted guards!

We bought tickets and flew straight to China!

In the throne room, the Dragon Emperor sat deep in thought. A guard beside him asked, "Your Majesty, you're letting the princess go like this?"

"I promised her! A father must keep his word and set an example." the Dragon Emperor declared.

What a noble father, the Spirited Dragon Guard thought—until the next words stunned him.

"Spirited Dragon Guard! Follow little Banas. If that Lin Ye bug touches her, cut off his three legs and dump him in the sewer!"

"Yes, sir!" the Spirited Dragon Guard obediently replied.

"Wow! This is Brother Ye's city? So weird!" I stared at the human metropolis, utterly fascinated!

"Banas-chan rarely gets out! All because the great Dragon Emperor spoils you rotten!" Stella teased.

Brother Ye, I'm coming. Remember your promise? I clutched Lin Ye's doll tightly!

Soon, I'll see you again. Then... mwahaha! You're mine!
