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 can see the fear in your eyes," Andrey taunted, his eyes gleaming with cruel satisfaction. "Good. You should be afraid."

"No," Yuki said, stepping forward. His eyes were hard, his grip on his weapon tight. "We're not afraid. We defeated one Nightfiend, we can defeat another."

Andrey laughed again, a sound that echoed eerily in the now silent battlefield. "Brave words. Let's see if you can back them up."

"I defeated the real you and I will defeat you again!"

He snickered. "You will? It was your guardian angel who defeated me, not you. What makes you think you could repeat her feat?"

A pang of frustration hit me. He was right, it was Yukisato who defeated him last time. If only I could summon her whenever I wanted, like how Jiro could summon Emiya. But I couldn't always rely on her. I had to fight too, to protect my friends and myself. I couldn't just stand here and do nothing.
