In a kingdom named Drachentia, there lived a kind-hearted Princess that earned the nickname Drachentia Kingdom’s Winter Flower. Born from the esteemed Duke of Mountravven family. Her name is Fuschia Mountravven. However, after becoming a Crown Princess, her nature was exposed. She was an immoral and cruel woman. The various heinous acts that she hid behind the mask of a ‘princess with a gold heart’ were exposed at the birth of her first son, which proved to be the result of adultery. Apart from tarnishing the honor name of the Royal Family, Fuschia also poisoned the Crown Prince, her husband, to cover her tracks. "Kill that vile woman who betrayed and poisoned the Crown Prince!" Cheers from the crowd gathered in the execution area. Fuschia's dark blue hair that had once gleamed as beautiful as night, matted and dirty like a rat hair in a gutter. Her tongue was burned with a hot iron and then sprinkled with salt. The proper punishment for a woman with a poison
I opened my eyes slowly, I felt a soft touch rotating over my hand. I stared at Merri, who was smiling freely for a moment. I am thankful. "Merri, I'm glad to see you again..." I said softly. 'But my baby isn't here… my baby isn't here,' tears spilled from the corner of my eyes. The flow was quite heavy and enough to make Merri flustered. Then several people came into my room. A doctor took my wrist softly. He checked my temperature. He says I have a fever. Merri and my ladies-in-waiting were getting frustrated. I had sat on the bed to drink medicine. I see the whole room of my room. Nothing changed much from the last time I remember. Maybe the presence of a shiny, arctic white tree in the middle of the room is giving me a clue of my return timeline. That tree was a sort of form of welcome from the Royal Family to their new family members. Meaning, I returned to the time when I was newlywed. The wife of a Crown Prince.
“And isn't it about time you could stand up on your own, Crown Princess? When I was your age and became the Crown Princess, I was able to contribute to-… so you-… should- ” Blah blah blargh. "Hoa~ m," Fuschia yawn, wildly. "Your Highness the Crown Princess!" Marchioness Bellrose, one of Her Majesty the Queen's lady-in-waiting snaped at Fuschia. And so does the other lady-in-waiting. Fuschia watched their eyes muscles bulge as if they were about to explode. If not for the influence of Her Majesty the Queen behind them, they would not have dared to rebuke a Crown Princess who had a higher status in the public as it is today. Clink! Her Majesty the Queen put down the cup quite loud. It is a sign. "Really. What's wrong with you, Crown Princess?" Asked the Queen with a worried face as if she cared. Not like Fuschia doesn’t know that the Queen was irritated. 'Madame Bellrose and the Queen's other ladies-in-waiting. They
“What wonderful news, Your Highness the Crown Princess. How about you prepare a surprise banquet for the return of His Highness the Crown Prince and his entourage?” Sophie suggested happily. Ah, that's right. In the past, I spent days putting together a surprise banquet for Hayden. Decorating the Crown Prince's palace with flowers with my household budget. Even to the point of inconveniencing the Chef of the Jasmine Palace because I want to learn how to bake a cake myself. At that time I thought I had done something that should be praised by my husband. But now I understand how stupid I was. The next day, Hayden told me that he finished my cake. But I'm sure, he must have thrown the cake away. The cake I made on my own with his happiness in mind. Dammit. Now that I know my efforts are wasted, I don't have to grind to get his attention anymore. Hmph! “Surprise banquet? Hmm… that is such a great idea, Sophie. As expected of you” By my side, Sophie smile
There is a subtle tension in the air. Both Fuschia and that guard refused to back down. Fuschia hates this situation, even more, when she clearly remembers that when there is Hayden's presence, they do not dare to act this way to her.“But, where are your guards, Your Highness?” This one guard is quite observant.“Is he one of Hayden's people? Shit. How many of Hayden's men are in this castle alone?!”“Hmm... it turns out that they are doing their job so well that you don't even notice them. My bodyguard observes us from their hiding spot. What? You don't think that I, a Crown Princess, am walking around alone without bodyguards, do you?”“Of course not, Your Highness. You… can enter. Please, next time bring your permit badge.” Asked that one guard with respect.Finally, they opened the door. The sound of the door creaking echoed throughout the room. The cold air of the large empty roo
“Greetings to the little moon of the Drachentia Kingdom, Your Highness the Crown Princess, may Lord Drachen always bless your day.” Said the man, Fuschia blinking fast before returning to her graceful form.“May Lord Drachen bless your day.” Fuschia squinted.“Ah, I’m sorry I was late in introducing myself. My name is Elysian Houwret von Bellrose, third son of Marquise Bellrose, I am a librarian in charge.”“He's the son of Marchioness Bellrose, ha! The child of the woman who poisoned my baby, who also burn my tounge! Damn it, why didn't I know that Marchioness Bellrose's son was the librarian? If he tells his mom about my presence here, it would be disastrous. Should I just bribe him using money? Or should I threatening him? Argh, what should I do?!”“Yes, nice to meet you.” Fuschia replied calmly, while Elysian was surprised.Anxious Fuschia began to cover the books and ne
Fuschia clench her fist as Elysian began to talk.“That story… really intriguing. Where did you hear that story, Your Highness?”“Nah, it’s just from a romantic novel I read. So, just tell me, what kind of magic does the husband used?”“Well, I think there’s no magic involvement in this case.”“Impossible! Then what about when she slept with another man who had her husband's face? Isn't the wife being tricked with magic like hypnosis?”“What is hypnosis, Your Highness? That’s the first time I heard that word.” Elysian face look troubled. He became restless.“Ah! Are there no hypnosis in this world?” Fuschia drummed the table,“Hypnosis is a kind of magic to manipulate human brain. So the victim always obeys when they asked to do something. Like being controlled. Like being a puppet. That's why the wife feels that sh
Someone once visited me in the dungeon on the day I was sentenced to death. I didn't see her figure because I was too focused on feeling sorry for myself. But I remember what she said,“Your burden feels heavy because you are so weak. Be a strong person, then your burden will feel light. Even though my words are of no use to you now, I hope you can go as a strong person.” She said.“Who is she, by the way? I don't have any friends who are willing to visit me in that shabby dungeon. Hmm?”In this life, it would be nice if I could become friends with that person.I came back from daydreaming. And like the life of a princess in fairy tales, the servants rushed over to serve me right after I woke up. Washing my face, choosing a dress for the day, bringing food, combing my hair and so on. This luxury used to make me complacent. But this time was different. I will not succumb to luxury.And I hate to size up what bad inte
