Lady Violet Evergreen

"But since I live… without a corpse, how could they have been burying me?"

She asked in disbelief. Then Gideon grabbed a few from the bowl of hazelnuts on the table.

"Well… you are not the only black haired woman in the world, and the people from Predin…. hehe… they are not famous for their minds. "

Grinning, he threw a few piece from the seeds into his mouth.

"Wah…"

The fact that the two men, who had been "studying" her body continuously for two years, smoothly buried another woman with whom her only common trait was their hair color, supported the man's opinion. In any case, she was surprised that other countries look down on them in this way… although it is unlikely that there isn't another bunch of people who would support the king pirsoning the official queen, and planting a tyrant escaped from a the underworld on the throne as his lover…

She finally nodded in agreement with Gideon.

"Then why did you cut my hair?"

��Well… this might surprise you, but you are not alive because I liked your two beautiful eyes. I just want the Vanderberg fortune, and your life has been a good bargain … and your hair was just enough for your parents to betray their country without thinking. "

"How?"

"They'll tell you themselves, since they'll be here by tomorrow night. And before you ask why your hair has become blonde… maybe black hair is not uncommon, but paired with violet eyes, it already counts. "

'I think that's how he smuggled me across the border… as a matter of fact, this shorter blonde style somehow lends a completely different radiance… as if it weren't me either.'

"Then I guess , I managed to answer all your questions, didn't I, dear Violet?"

"Oh, yes… what? Violet? "

She looked up in surprise.

Then Gideon threw a small red leather-bound booklet in front of her. Ariana opened it.

"This is…"

"Your new identity. Lady Violet Evergreen, the nanny of my son Norman, the Crown Prince. "

"But why do you entrust me with such an important position?"

"Repayment… that stupid bitch has committed suicide because of your husband… in my eyes my son lost his mother because of Jerome… now that your life is in my hands, the least is ,you give me a reason to keep you alive… so you become a mother instead of a mother for Norman. "

'After all, the prince's nanny is the second strongest position after the queen… since it is almost a family for the prince… and in the absence of a queen… practically I will be the prince's stepmother, I just don't have to get involved in politics…'

The man stood up and, as if closing the conversation, headed for the door.

"According to these conversation, you won't send me back to Predin, am I right?"

She asked with a glassy look.

"You are right, you can never go back."

"And you provide a secure position and background on the prince's side?"

"If I am satisfied with your work…"

The man turned, but then she suddenly hugged him. As the weak body connected with great momentum, Gideon took a step back. His eyes widened as the creature hanging over him with a sincere smile on her face, tears in her eyes, said that…

"Thank you!"

Gideon cleared his throat and then took the girl's hands off himself.

"The doctor says you need a few more days of rest, so you'll start in 1 week. Sharon is the head maid, she will later bring in the materials you need to review. Although the etiquette of the two countries is roughly the same, there are differences. "

"Understood."

There was an enthusiastic response.

"Whatever other question you have, Sharon answers."

With that, he left the girl, who happily jumped back into her comfortable bed.

"I can not believe! Although I am a prisoner of war… I can have a much better life than the queen of a country! I hope… my parents didn't do anything stupid… "

She sat up finally worried.

"What did Gideon mean by betraying their country?"

The next day, the Vanderberg family finally became complete again.

They hugged each other while crying.

"Sweetheart, I thought I'd never see you again!"

The sobbing mother barely wanted to let her go.

"What happened?"

After half an hour, the parents managed to calm down enough to tell what had happened.

"When I saw the corpse… I did not want to believe my eyes… therefore the King of Hertian did not leave things to luck…"

The father told.

"But how could he deceive everyone?"

The girl did not understand, how is it possible that her own parents that they did not recognize the fake girl.

"The corpse of a girl, with long black hair of a body shape like you, was thrown in front of a wolf pack in your dress… you can guess how much is left of the body…"

"Uh…"

Ariana's stomach moved for a moment as she imagined.

"Her eyes were dugged out, so everyone thought they had been taken as a proof of the work done … with your beautiful violet pair of eyes."

"Hah… that's how It was… now I understand everything."

"Because the servants saw that you were executed ont he spot..and there was the bloodstain…"

"But I'm intact…"

"I had blood prepared in a leather bag."

Gideon entered through the door.

"Well that was a really brilliant solution."

She acknowledged the man's ingenuity with a smile.

"Miss Vanderberg… You really are a really interesting creature."

The king joined the tea-drinking family in amazement.
