Excerpt-

“If I knew you were my betrothed, I would have killed you the very first moment we met." Arlan's gaze darkened with hatred.

“If I knew I was betrothed to you, I would have killed myself before you even killed me!” Oriana mirrored the same emotions as him. 

He pulled out a dagger and offered it to her. “It’s not too late. Just slit your throat with this and you'll bleed out painlessly.”

She accepted the knife, her fingers clutching its handle tightly. The next moment, he was pressed against the wall and the knife was on the right side of his neck. “How about I try it on you first, my betrothed?”

“Feel free to try. But when you fail, this knife will first taste your grandpa's blood, then yours.”

Anger rose in her eyes, and the next moment,  blood was flowing through the right side of his neck. She cut deep enough to severe an important blood vessel. 

“You should not have challenged me,” she sneered and stepped back, waiting for him to collapse. 

He simply smirked and brushed his finger along the deep wound on his neck. “Seems like you failed.”

She watched the wound on his neck heal on its own and felt shocked to her bones. “You.. what are you?”

“Guess?”

The Devil's Betrothed

"Mother, I won't accept concubines. Also, do not pin your hopes up about that Verner girl, because the day I find her, it will be the last day of her life."

Oriana was shocked to hear what he said. 'Is he going to kill his betrothed? Why? Just because she doesn't want to marry him? Did it hurt his pride?' She shook her head in disbelief. 'So cruel. I hope this girl is never found. To have an arranged marriage with this madman, she sure is unlucky. Wherever she is, I hope she meets a good man who will love her for who she is.'

The prince changed the subject, "How about we talk about something else, Mother? How about throwing a ball for Lenard's wife to welcome her into the family? We can also use that opportunity to formally introduce her to the capital's noble families."

The older woman sighed and agreed, "Alright. That is what you want."
