You fought for many years, you had to, your people believed in you, and waited for you to save them from hunger and poverty, the cold weather made people sick, and the lack of food and water killed a number of your people, and this made you fight more, so that you would win the war, and so that the emperor would give you a reward for your victory, with this you would be able to save your people. After your victory in the war, you did not wait, you hurried to the empire, to the emperor's palace where the majority looked at you with looks of disgust because of your clothes that smelled of blood and corpses. But instead of rewarding you with a few gold coins to help your people, you were shocked by your reward, which was that you had the right to choose any husband you wanted, and if the person you chose refused, the money would be paid to you. You chose Prince Carlisle Haven, who had recently had his title of Crown Prince stripped of him, and who is known as the Predatory Killer. You thought he would refuse and so you would get the money, but.. "I can't help but agree" Prince Carlisle accepted your offer, a cold smile adorning his lips as he rose from his throne next to his father's.
