Married Off To A Cold Eyed Knight

Most would expect the daughter of the king of one of the four strongest nations in the Realm of the Angels to enjoy great luxury and power. While her Father may enjoy those things, that isn't the case for Rosemary. The hated daughter only manages to attract disdain from others in the royal court despite her gentle and kind nature. Rosemary was born with a weak body, preventing her from living up to the ideals of her father and his court. Such environment pushes Rose to attempting to end it all. But she is unable to do so as she recalls her older brother's love for her. As she drowns, she cries out for help. But no one is around. No one but a certain handsome man with eyes as cold as her father's.

Chapter 317: Puppet Queen

Orson

I rushed upstairs to find Roxanne, but she wasn't in the living room. 

"Roxanne!" I yelled, but there was no answer. My eyes glanced at the staircase leading the second floor. "Kine!"

Even Kine didn't respond. Were they alright?

Panic set in as silence met my calls. The house seemed to swallow the sound, leaving an eerie quiet in its wake.

"Roxanne! Kine!" I called again, my voice echoing through the empty corridors.

I moved swiftly, checking each room for Roxanne, but found no sign of her. The tension twisted in my gut. Had something happened to her? Kine could at least fight. I had no clue how good of a fighter Roxanne was.

I approached the dining hall, the grand double doors slightly ajar. A sliver of light spilled out onto the darkened hall. I pushed the doors open, and the sight that greeted me made my blood run cold.
