marry me, Mensis."
What...?
I met him yesterday. Just one day. One cursed, unforgettable day.
And now, with a gaze as cold as a blade—
He dares to say that?
> "Become mine. My eyes, my voice, my shadow. Let me use you to seize my throne."
It wasn’t a proposal.
It was a sentence.
A lifetime in chains, dressed in velvet and lies.
He didn’t love me. He wanted to own me.
This wasn't the start of a fairytale.
It was the prologue of my destruction.
He stole my family.
He shattered my soul.
He burned down the girl I used to be.
Now he dares to say my name like it's his to keep?
Fine. I’ll marry you, “Your Highness.”
But this time, you will be the one begging for mercy.
