Days pass and people change.

"Fuyu." Father called one day.

I silently came. Tiptoeing across cold wood floors.

I shivered. Sitting on the bare floor. Across the table.

Silence hung heavy between us.

"I've arranged a marriage for you." was what I heard.

A thousands thoughts wandered across my mind.

Sadness.

Confusion.

Joy.

"I see". Was all I said.

He patted my head. Showed me a single photo.

Count Alexis

Brown hair.

Green Eyes.

The one person who had a cold stare.

Stuck fear at my heart.

Was this my fate? To be tied to him?
