"Y-your highness." The captain bowed, scared if this will be his last day as he hesitantly looked at her. She was elegantly sitting in a throne. Her dark hair was done in a braid as her gold crown sat on her head.

"Didn't I tell you to behead every single one of them, Hmm?" She asked, as she looked at him with her sharp, hawk like eyes. "Forgive me your highness.. I'll catch that bastard for sure this time!" The captain answered, his eyes filled with hope.

"Watch you words, you're in front of her highness." The adviser warned, coming out from The said Queen's side.

"Forgive me your highness! I shall bring his head to you before the sun sets! If you will excuse me." The knight's captain said, sweating profusely.

"Alright, You're excused and If you don't bring his head today, You'll be beheaded." She said, while looking down at him coldly. The Knight scurried away from her as fast as he could.

"Your highness, Your Mother, Her highness is calling for you." Her personal Knight said, as he bowed his head. "Hmm." The queen got up and gracefully walked away as the knight followed her.

"Ah, Yeonha dear, Alas You're here!" The older lady said, in a happy tone clasping her hands together. "I waited for such a long time for you to come." The older lady sighed. She was in her Fifties but she looked rather young and beautiful than of her age.

"Yes mother. Why did you call for me?" 'Yeonha' The queen asked, as she knelt in front of the older woman. "Ah? Have breakfast with me." Her mother said, smiling as she motioned her daughter to sit with her. "Bring the dishes." Her mother ordered and the maids scurried away to bring the foods.

"You're excused." The queen looked at her Knight and motioned him to go away.

"So, Why did you call me Mother?" Yeonha asked, not letting her mother's sweet words take her away. She knew how her mother really is and how merciless she was.

"You're too kind hearted, Yeonha." Her mother sternly said as she sipped from her cup and placed it on the tabled making 'clink' sound. "I'm sorry mother." The queen apologized.

"...Why didn't you kill that low-life peasant there. Hmm?" The older women asked as she looked at her daughter's lifeless face. "I'm sorry, mother but he still was useful." Yeonha replied, not really wanting to talk about it.

"Didn't I tell you to not talk back to me?" Her mother hissed angrily, as she looked at her daughter coldly. In a sudden her mother stood up and slapped her hard.

The room was in silence as her mother sat again but yeonha stood up there, but she was still looking at the ground. "Sit." Her mother ordered. She obeyed her mother as she sat at the chair.

The maids hesitantly came as they knew how heavy the atmosphere was there and were scared. They served the hot foods and desserts and scurried away again but the Empress dowager's maid stayed, bowing her head.

"Eat my daughter! It's good for your health~!" Her mother chimed. Yeonha obeyed as she didn't want to anger her more.

The empress dowager hummed looking at her daughter eating. "..And the Xinhua Kingdom's prince is meeting with you this evening to discuss about your marriage, Be ready." Her mother addressed while sipping her tea. "Okay, I shall be on my way to the meeting, mother. If you will excuse me." Yeonha requested. "Alright dear daughter! Be careful~" Her mother acknowledged.

{In the Evening}

The Empress walked out from the conference hall, a bit annoyed from their remarks on her marriage and all. "Your highness, Prince Shin is waiting for you." The knight reported, coming out nowhere. She nodded and shooed him away.

One thing yeonha hated about herself was her bloodlust was even bigger than her own father and that she can't control it sometimes and now her bloodlust was oozing out from her body. Her eyes were getting redder as she went to meet the prince.

"Good evening, Your highness." The prince bowed elegantly as he took her hand gently and planted a little kiss.

*Thump*

*Thump*

*Thump*

Her heart beat faster and she felt her face and ears getting warmer and warmer. She had many courters that kissed her at the past but she didn't feel it like that with any of them. 'What is this feeling? Is this attraction? Is this love? So I do have feelings too..' She contemplated, deep in thought.

"Your highness, Are you okay? Would you like to sit? Should I carry you?" The prince asked, seemingly worried.

"No need, I'm alright!" She replied snapping out from her thoughts.

"Ah, I forgot to introduce myself! I'm Shin Lee, The first prince of Xinhua. Your Fiance♡" He Professed, smiling from ear to ear. He was handsome ...Utterly handsome. His eyes were bright Baby Blue, that were filled with hope and passion unlike hers..

"As you know, I'm Yeonha Xing shu. The Empress of this Kingdom." Yeonha chimed, proudly. "Heh You're truly beautiful My soon to be empress." He chuckled taking The said girl's hand and dragged her to the hall.

"Is the end of this month Alright?" He asked elegantly cutting the steak.

"Yes. That'll be alright." She answered as she sipped some wine. "...but isn't this a little too rushed.." Yeonha mumbled, Yes she was happy to marry him but this is a little too fact paced as only 7 day have left.

"Hmm? And So the date shall be fixed!" He cheered happily.

...

...

{At the present day}

Yeonha was happy, today was her wedding day and after this they both will be together forever happily. Yeonha came to love him more in this seven days and She always thought it was too good to be true and those words were right 'It was actually too good to be true.'

...…

...…

...…

"W-why I loved you so much..." Yeonha uttered, as her breath hitched while blood was gushed out from her mouth and her stomach. She never thought that in her own wedding, Her own husband would murder her.

"You're not worthy of love, Demon." He spat angrily as he pointed his sword to her neck. Why.. I thought we'll be together forever.. You said that you loved me too... Why..?

"Haha... I loved you *huff* If I ever get...a second chance. I'm sure I'll kill you myself and tore you to pieces.." She growled panting, Her bright golden eyes shining brighter. She tried to breath but her wounds not letting her. As she slowly blacked out, she saw him walking towards her throne and...
