An unknown woman. An unrivalled man. An unexpected encounter. An unpaired couple. then an unpredictable story. "So you are telling me that a lady dragged the entire kingdom down? Just like that?" "Not just like that..."

"I demand the throne father not a marriage degree."
The rebel princess stood up on her feet as the whole family of 4 looked at her with wide open eyes.
"That's too cunning of you, princess Rosemary. The throne is meant to be your brother's, how can you ask such a big thing-"
The raging step mother's angry comment was soon heard at the dining too but cutting the statement off in the middle the angry princess glared at her.
"I am not asking, I am demanding it. It's my possession after my father. Also I have no brother. I am the only child of this dynasty, the throne is obviously mine cause I am the pure blood!"
"You-"
Feeling the insult in princess's words, anger started building up inside the step mother as she again intended to talk back when king himself smashed his hands on the table gaining everyone's fearful eyes on him except one.
Glaring back at those angry eyes boldly, Rosemary still had whole confidence which didn't even calmed her father eyes for once.
"Women don't rule, rosemary!"
Those words were naturally a win of stepmother and the step siblings behalf but the angered princess wasn't having any of it.
"My mother brought the throne to you, she was even sacrificed for it. Do not mistake this as my appeal father. This is my right what I am demanding. The throne is my mother's struggle and I deserve it more than your concubine's son."
The angry princess still stood on her feet, never for once looking down.
"Now you will teach me who deserves my title huh?"
The king shouted as the dining flinched at his tone. The reason was princess mentioning her dead mother.
It was true that the throne was meant for her at the end of any discussion, the throne was hers but the stubborn king was too arrogant to handle it to a female and let her rule.
Even if she was his daughter.
"I have to because your eyes are too small to see the difference between me and your other children. I am my mother's daughter, Princess Rosemary Jen in case you forgot me."
Walking towards him, she spoke as the stepbrother and stepsister clenched their hands having enough of it already.
Sure the step siblings's positions were not any different than her but their levels surely are. They are still the concubine's children who have to bow down to reality.
Princess Rosemary Jen has always been the first preference in royalty.
She is the princess carrying royal and pure blood!
"Princess Rosemary Jen, you cannot talk to father like this!"
Stepbrother's teeth gritted, he less cared about his father is being insulted. He obviously reacted because his mention was ridiculed my her at the dining seconds ago.
"Truth hurted you this bad? I can talk to him in any way being real but you cannot cause you have to kiss his ass for my throne every time right? Pathetic!"
The stepbrother clenched his jaw, if he could he would have make her regret right away.
But of course only in his imagination.
He couldn't do a thing to her in reality, he was tied by the honour and his father's limits. Till the throne isn't in his possession, he have to be quite. He have to take in all the insults being the polluted child.
"Language Rosemary!"
Father shouted in rage.
Obviously that's not the language any royal women talk but the angered princess had to. Knowing the true colours of the step family, she knew well that the king was blindfolded by them all these years.
"I don't intend to drag this matter father. I don't even want to but remember this, even if you are planning to eliminate me then I will have no choice left but to request the attentions of our people. Knowing the audience well, if they won't let any woman lead them then they won't let a concubine's son to lead them either!"
The Princess surprised the dining with her bold statement.
It was a threat, a threat to dare and try her. She obviously sounded so very confident and proud of her words as if she would really do so.
This made the step family kind of fear the future while the king on the other side was glaring at his daughter who didn't even reacted for once after that.
"Suit yourself, king!"
She spoke more like mocked her father while bowing before exiting the dining all empty stomach, without eating a single thing.
As she exited the maids bowed to her, seeing her angry and ugly mood they got the clue to not mess with her.
Soon entering inside her bedroom she was welcomed by her server who was seemingly dusting her undone mattress when she suddenly bursted inside without any warning, scaring her.
She flinched when princess entered inside angrily.
"Jesus, you scared me princess rose!"
Daisy spoke as she let go of the dusting cloth and walked near her to pour her some water.
It was not new, the princess she knew was quite a hot tempered woman. Every time when the family dines every weekend, her mood always gets spoiled like this only.
"Here."
Daisy said handling her the glass while the princess looked away rejecting her offer, she seemed really mad this time which was unique.
"Come on future queen you gotta stay hydrated in order to rule!"
Daisy spoke as she made her hold the glass of water while laughing as soon princess's anger seem to dry down.
"I want to kill those snakes, she dared to manipulate father to marry me off this time so that I won't come in her way!"
Rosemary mumbled as Daisy became shocked.
"Princess mary, that's bad. You gotta do something otherwise-"
Daisy commented back as Rosemary rolled her eyes.
"I did it and I bet they will regret now before messing with me."
Princess scoffed as soon Daisy became curious at her behaviour.
"What did you do?"
The royal servant inspected as the princess chuckled in mock.
"I threatened them that I will seek people's attention if things aren't in my favour!"
Without any care Rosemary stated before gulping the water down her throat to calm her temper.
But opposite of her the royal servant's eyes widened at the princess's audacity.
The fact that she even gutted to threat this time was a very big thing itself.
"Princess Rose that's worse, it can get you in trouble."
Daisy uttered as she looked at the princess who paused her actions looking at her servant with a questionable gaze.
"In order to get rid of you they manipulated the king to marry you off, now that you warned them about seeking the people's attention. I am sure they are not going to just keep quite on this matter!"
Rosemary's eyes stared at her server blankly as she stated those words.
True! They really won't, especially that stupid stepbrother of her.
Parting his lips, Jordan placed the burning cigarette on his mouth and stood up from his seat before walking towards his shelves containing all his important documents related business, but soon there a light tug on his arm stopped his actions. It was her, he knew it cause no one other than her had the audacity to enter and exit his cabin without his permission. His wife, Hattiea. Or maybe the woman pretending to be his wife? Jordan's dark eyes landed on the culprit immediately with darkness but as soon as he found her behind him close to him... He got lost for a moment or so... The proximity rose slight tension between them. Raising her fingers up, Hattiea pulled the burning cigarette out from his mouth which was still resting on his lips. Her delicate fingers brushed his chin and lips softly. Following by the smoke, he released his minty breath in slight awe, her breath taking face was so close to his face. They both never came so close to one another actually. Even though it had been quite of time getting married with one another, they minded their boundaries well. As it was not any marriage of love for them but a marriage full of compromises. Hattiea's eyes soon travelled up from his lips back to his eyes, which were still staring at her ditching their shame. "It's dangerous for your health." Hattiea exclaimed hinting his smoking habit, while looking right into his eyes. Her hazel eyes were blank yet they held millions of emotions. "So are you!" Jordan's smoky breath caressed her face. The deepness of his voice solely made Hattiea's heart race million times faster. It was true... she was dangerous for him. Way too dangerous to handle.

I received a pornographic video. "Do you like this?" The man speaking in the video is my husband, Mark, whom I haven't seen for several months. He is naked, his shirt and pants scattered on the ground, thrusting forcefully on a woman whose face I can't see, her plump and round breasts bouncing vigorously. I can clearly hear the slapping sounds in the video, mixed with lustful moans and grunts. "Yes, yes, fuck me hard, baby," the woman screams ecstatically in response. "You naughty girl!" Mark stands up and flips her over, slapping her buttocks as he speaks. "Stick your ass up!" The woman giggles, turns around, sways her buttocks, and kneels on the bed. I feel like someone has poured a bucket of ice water on my head.

He stared at me with a frown before answering coldly, "It's not up to you! I'm very busy, don't waste my time with such boring topics, or try to attract my attention!" The last thing I was going to do was argue or bicker with him. "I will have the lawyer send you the divorce agreement," was all I said, as calmly as I could muster. He didn't even say another word after that and just went through the door he'd been standing in front of, slamming it harshly behind him. My eyes lingered on the knob of the door a bit absentmindedly before I pulled the wedding ring off my finger and placed it on the table. I grabbed my suitcase, which I'd already had my things packed in and headed out of the house.
