Rosemary was born into royalty, but unlike the princesses in fairy tales, she doesn't enjoy the perks that come with the title. In fact, she's looked down on by those around her for failing to live up to what her society expects of her as one born into the Kuroriku clan's main family, strength, durability, and vigor. Rosemary was born with a frail body and inadequate mana, not like the other members of her family who were all born with hardy bodies and vast potential.

The only ones around who seem to treat her nicely are her brother and his girlfriend, Artemia. Despite their moral support, Rose still desires to escape her unloving father and those around her who made her life a living hell. One day, the chance finally presents itself in the form of a tall, dark, and handsome upstart knight with a cold stare. Will she accept even though it might mean entering a loveless marriage. But, what if love were to bloom in the most unlikely of places? Or is that only a thing that happens in fairy tales?

Married Off To A Cold Eyed Knight

I stared at my sleeping daughter and stroked her hair. "Mommy and Daddy will be back in a few days, dear," I whispered. "Try to be a good girl for your Granddaddy and Grandmommy, okay?"

"Okay," Yukira said, turning in her sleep.

I giggled. She was a lot like her daddy.

"Ready to go?" Yuki asked as he gave me a sad smile.

I nodded. "Yeah." I watched as he continued to stare sadly at our daughter. "Don't plan to say bye?"

He looked down. "I feel if I do that, that I might never come back."

I frowned. "Why would you say that? Of course you'll be coming back. I'm not going to let you get hurt again."

Yukito gave me a small smile. "I know, Koyuki. It's just... hard, leaving her so soon."

I reached out, taking his hand in mine. "I know, Yuki. But we'll be back before she knows it."

He nodded, squeezing my hand. "You're right. Let's go."
