Intro

Princess Guest paced the floor of the corridor in her kingdom’s palace, fuming. She was furious with this arrangement. Here she was, a full sentient person— being used as a bargaining chip to end a war she didn’t start by marrying a man she had met one time in one hour. She looked down at the wedding dress, absolutely despising it. That night, she would be taken to Fuyubane after she was successfully sold to the youngest Todoroki heir. Your kingdom had always been a progressive, libertarian nation that allowed its citizens to vote on the laws, although the monarchy was kept in place. Guest had always been on familiar terms with the servants, often preferring their company over the stiff nobles. So of course the concept of marrying that human icebox was revolting. The only consolation was her Shinso would be with her. A page boy walked in through the door.
