—— 1807
the prince was turning 18 soon, one more year and the throne would be his unless someone else from another kingdom fights for the throne which he would gravely be in danger for.
—— SEORIM'S POV
"they're looking for a bride for him and they're suggesting you!" the maiden had brought the news to me.
"but dahee I don't want to be his bride, I want his throne. I want the throne why is he even in line? What qualities does this park sunghoon possess that I don't?!" i speak in disbelief.
"have you met prince sunghoon yet? how do you know what he possesses? he comes from the most vampire family to ever exist. No one has heard of what he's capable of because he hasn't come to the public." she calmly responds.
"what do you mean? the royal families haven't seen this prince sunghoon? and yet he still has the power to be in line for the throne?" i scoff.
"the park kingdom's son...there's something eerie about him that others can't seem to figure out. He hasn't spoken much, he's always stuck inside the palace, there's something deeper than those menacing looks of his."
"im not only saying this because he's a vampire, he has a sinister demeanor."
dahee's words only sent chills down my spine, i wouldn't let the royal families and everyone behind them fall into prince sunghoon's hands, even if i had to risk my life for it.
i believe i have just as much as power as a woman to compete against him for the throne. I will get, what I want.
and nobody will stand in my way, not even a "menacing" vampire prince.
"about that, about prince sunghoon. His parents are hosting a ball and dinner party for potential brides and to celebrate him being a year from taking the throne. It's to be held the next night." she informed and I nodded, this was it.
this would be my moment to propose my qualities for the throne.
