My mother has tried to avoid forcing me into marriage, but the councils judgement is almost final. The councilors were the only people my mother trusted after that day 10 years ago.
Sxiyarei... The Prince of Hell. We've been taking with each other via letter; he seems to be very nice and sweet. Although I couldn't make sense of it, he said He takes what he wants and he wants me.
When I read the letter I was stunned. How could a a man be so straight forward? After I received the letter, I couldn't gather the words to reply, so I didn't.
About 2 weeks had passed since I received a letter from him. It was at that moment when I realized I missed his letters. Another week passed and I had finally gotten another letter from him. I had mixed emotions, questions, like why didn't he write back sooner? I felt angry?sad? Happy? My head was everywhere. I was a bit nervous to read the letter; when I opened it I could hear my heart beat louder than ever, feel my cheeks blush brighter than the brightest shade of red. I was eating lunch with my mother at the time.
" What's that-?" she asked "Oh, this? It's nothing-" I said with a shaky voice. " It doesn't look like nothing" I felt her stare, it was like the pierce of needles all over my body. I couldn't stand her gaze, so I told her what the letter said. " Dear Princess Wxuaze Xiao, I am in need of a wife. Your letters emphasize your beauty, and I want you to be my wife." " That's great!" my mother squealed. she still had no idea who it was from. I went on with reading " I'm sending you an open invitation to..." I paused, my heart skipped a beat. " Go on!-" " to... The Royal Palace of Hell" "What! I will not allow this, You cannot marry him!" " Mother!" I argued, " This will save the country !" She stormed out making sure to slam the door hard enough to make me jump.
I slapped my forehead with my hands. "Marriage" I said aloud.
