You turned down your grandfather's offer to take over him since Marcellus proposed to you an you will become queen eventually.

things went good after your marriage. He always made sure you were happy and satisfied with your marriage and giving you no reason to doubt him.

2 years passed and one day, You overheard the maids talking about him and his advisor's fling. Your heart dropped the moment you heard it and stormed out not wanting to hear the whole thing.

You assumed he slept with his advisor while being nice to you so you wouldn't notice. but in reality, what the maids were talking about happened 5 years ago and not in the present but you didn't hear the rest of it since you left.

You left that night without any explanation and when you returned to your grandfather's kingdom, you accepted his offer and you became queen after 4 months.

During those times, you prepared your men and skilled knights since you were planning a revenge on him since you grew bitter thinking he was being so good to you while seeing another woman on the side.

---

You attacked his kingdom and when he stood before you holding his sword, his heart clenched. The two of you clashed not even sparing a drop of mercy despite the good times you shared

when you had a chance while he was on his knee, You grabbed his jaw and clenched it before pointing the tip of your sword on his heart.

But instead of fighting you, he let go of his sword and looked up at you, the same way he would look at you when you two were together and he held your hand that was gripping the sword to his heart and spoke in a low and soft tone of voice.

"Go ahead.. Take it.. it's yours.. it's always been yours.."
