Married Off To A Cold Eyed Knight

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?

Chapter 314: Puppets

Orson

The mansion was a maze of grandeur and opulence, it reminded me of my old home. But there was no time to marvel at its splendor. We were on a mission — to find anything that could lead us to Cyra. Or at least, uncover her plans.

After splitting up from Kine and Roxanne, I headed straight for the basement. Basements were often repositories of secrets, a place to hide things you didn't want anyone to find. Like, how the royal castle had a long, endless dungeon underneath that once house thousands of political prisoners.

As I descended the stone steps leading the Cyra's basement, the temperature dropped, sending a chill up my spine. The only sound was the echo of my footsteps against the cold stone walls. The chill wasn't the typical one that people got from enter wine caves and the like, this one was sharper and more steep.
