Where in your world do I belong in?

~Eighteen~

"Uh, oh, um, I just.....wanted to ask about something" I said as I quickly let go of his shirt tail and backed away. "What is it?" Lucifer said as he kneel down to me. 

"Why do you cover your eye like that?" I asked as I used my hand to cover up one of my eyes. "That's none of your business" Lucifer replied as he got back up. "Hey! Shouldn't you tell me?! I won't stop bothering you until you do! Hurry up and say something, you idiot!!" I shouted at him. Lucifer turned around and looked at me "Why should I?" Lucifer said out coldly. Why should I? Is that the only thing you want to ask? Just say the damn answer already. But something leaked out of my mouth before I could think twice about it.

"That's because I'm your wife!!" I shouted. Lucifer's eyes widened. Wait, what did I just say? What? I did not just say that "I am his wife." Wait, I actually said that didn't I? Shit. 

"Wait, no, that's not what I meant!" I said as I began panicking. "What do you mean by that? Either way, you're going to be my wife" Lucifer sighed as he walked away. How can he say such things with a calm face!?!!? I can't even do that!

I began storming back inside the palace to my room. I slammed the door shut and plopped on my bed. I'm so done with him. I can't marry a dude like him. It's like feeding myself poison! 

"Yusa-sama! It's time for you to get ready for the dinner party tonight!" someone shouted from outside my door. "Oh, come in" I said. Felicie, my maid, came in along with some other maids. I sat up on my bed. "We'll began with the undergarments" Felicie began as she grabbed a piece of clothing from one of the maids. 

"Why do I have to wear this?" I complained. "It's a party, your highness. The queen suggests that you need you to look your best" Felicie said. I began crawling out if bed and towards the window. There's no way I'm wearing those. I don't want that thing touching my skin. Better escape now. The maids blocked my way to the window. 

"Where are you going, your highness?" Felicie said as she grabbed one of shoulders. "I-I was just going to open up the window and get some fresh air in here" I lied as I gently slipped away. "Grab her" Felicie ordered the maids. They all grabbed onto me at once. "What are you doing?! Let me go!!" I shouted as I began struggling free. "This is going to be fun, Yusa-sama" Felicie said as she began walking towards me. And my worst nightmare began.

~*~*~*~

The doors to the imperial dinning room opened and I walked in with this large uncomfortable dress that you can't even run in. I glared at the table. This isn't a party. There's only eight people here, including me. You guys be lying.

I sat down, next to Lucifer, in front of another girl. "Now, let's began the party" Jorichio exclaimed as he held up his wine glass. Everyone held up there's, so I suppose I should hold mine's. I looked around at my silverware. Where's my glass of wine? How could they forget about mine's? I'm the guest of honor, for crying out loud!

"Oi, this ones your's" Lucifer whispered as he pointed at a glass across from me. Oh, so that ones mine's. I should really pay attention in my daily classes now. I held up my glass in the air.

"CHEERS!!" we shouted in unison. We all sat back down and sipped the glass of wine. As soon as I sipped it, I realized something. This is not sweet! How could they do this to me?! I took another sip and smiled. 

It's poisoned. 

Author's Note:

Yusa is out-numbered in this situation. It's her, against seven people. I mean, it's food from the kingdom you "despise" deeply. How could you expect them to give you good, un-posioned, tasty stuff? How will she survive this dinner party without getting caught that she knows it's poisoned? Stay tune, the next chapter will reveal her strategy.
