Let's get one thing straight: I didn't ask for the crown. I didn't ask for the palace, or the titles, or the suspiciously charming husband who may or may not have cursed an entire bloodline before breakfast. All I wanted was revenge. Clean. Quiet. No blood on the carpets, just a discreet little blade between the ribs of the man who ruined my family. But then, somehow... this happened: "You'll be queen by the end of the week," the king said, like he was offering me tea. I laughed. He didn't. Now I'm stuck in a castle full of spies, nobles who smile like they're waiting to stab me, and a husband who sleeps with his eyes open and might actually be immortal. (I'm not sure. I haven't tested it. Yet.) So yes, revenge was easier before I had a crown. And definitely before I had to sit through royal council meetings about grain taxes while plotting assassination attempts in my head.

Inure: (v.) To accustom to accept something undesirable, evil, or painful. An other worldly girl is reincarnated as Queen Estella de Royalis, the villainess of a novel that is killed by her own husband. Having no other choice, she strives to save herself from that fate. However, the novel she read is not the reality she believed. ______ I tried on another, a red one this time. I twirl in its large skirt. "This one matches your eyes," I say as I spin. "This one too." I stop, putting my hands on my hips. "Are you going to order all of them?" "If I want to, yes, I will." He doesn't budge. I sigh, sitting next to him. "You know that you don't have to do this. I can go buy my own dresses." "I know, but I want to see you wear dresses that I chose. Besides, is it so wrong to want to spend time with you?" ______ Note: This is entirely my work. I want to see if I'm able to write something without a plot set up for me. I hope you like it!
