A Dream Come True

"Ruby, you have made me the happiest man on earth. Do you know that?", Seth asked her as he got up from his kneeling position.

Ruby tried to smile. She hoped that the prince got the message she was trying to pass across. The reason why she had accepted was that she needed all  the help she could get to defeat the person who had taken her inheritance from her.

Ruby couldn't wait for her hands to be stained with the blood of the person responsible for her parent's demise.

Seth had said he cared deeply for her. That was still unsettling for the princess.

But... to get her throne... to have that person sitting on the Ziviel throne right now groveling at her feet, Ruby was ready to do anything. And marrying Seth was a little price to pay for all those.

Princess Ruby saw the happiness on Seth's face. Even she knew that his ace had ever worn such glee... such shine... such sparkle.
