Chapter 1

“There’s someone I love.”

As I heard the people cheering…

Dressed in my wedding dress, I was upset by his words, but tried my best to keep my expression in check.

Like the happiest woman in the world, my cheeks flushed red, and I showed him a smile.

“It’s all right, I know.”

It was like a needle had been stuck in my chest.

Even if I pull it out, the tip contains a poison that makes my heart bleed.

I’ve never actually had a needle pricked into my body, but I’m sure it would hurt less or as much as this.

“This marriage will never fill your heart. I’m sorry I couldn’t tell you… beforehand.”

Why do you have to say it now?

After the wedding, we pledged our love to each other. 

Now that we are unveiling ourselves to the public.

A chill of uncertainty runs down my spine while feeling the expectant gazes of the crowd.

Did he think that people wouldn’t hear him in all this commotion?

I guess I was caught off guard, since I could only wave my hand on the balcony.

I wondered how dangerous it would be for the people to hear this.

I wonder if he knows what he’s doing.

Still, my smile never faded.

It’s all for the people.

I am happy.

And I’ll make you happy, too.

As the next queen.

Such a confident smile.

Oh why have I become so good at lying?

“Roy-sama, as long as Roy-sama is happy, I’m fine with that.”

Not making eye contact with Roy-sama, I whisper back while waving to people.

“I will not stand in your way, Roy-sama. I will not stand in the way of your happiness.”

I have always loved him.

From the moment we first met.

That is, since I was six years old.

He is the person I have always been in love with.

I knew he was attracted to another woman.

But, It was the first time I heard it from his mouth.

More than what I first thought, when his words reached my ears, they cut straight through my heart.

But, I am still hoping for Roy-sama to be happy.

I am, I am.

So, I have to disappear from this world soon.
