[Neil POV]
The first time I met His Highness fiancée, I thought that it must be a cruel joke for a man like the Duke to be tied to such an insignificant woman. Her looks were ordinary, her meek personality just gave me a disgusting feeling, but the thing that disturbed me the most was her indifferent eyes. She looked like she had seen the most annoying fly trying to molest her.
I didn't like her.
Why should she have to be the one to be the Duke's bride? Didn't the Kingdom of Crotia had a more beautiful Princess? I heard there were three, and one was an outstanding woman that had trained for years with the knights. Maybe she was the girl in the woods that day. She was beautiful.
Then we part to the capital of Docrem. Not many hours walking on the road, the damn woman asked us to stop as she was getting nauseous. What the heck? I thought. Then again and again she asked that maid of hers to stop us. Even that maid was more beautiful than that woman.
