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

As soon as Mom let go of Kiki, she ran off to her room, crying.

"Mom," I said, crossing my arms. "Don't you think you're being too harsh? Sure, Sil is poor, but he adores Kiki."

She took a deep breath. "He's partially at fault for her failure. He distracted her from her lessons. Also, having friends like him would take Kiki nowhere. He has nothing to offer her."

"Offer her? You make it sound as if they're getting married! They're only five!"

She shook her head. "Kaze, you're an adult now. You must know the marriages aren't the only relationships that matter in life. As nobles, we have to cultivate friendships with other high-class people. That's why I permitted you going out with that Kasai no Ki prince, Hideyoshi. If he were just a knight, I would've balked at it."
