CHAPTER 0 – WHY NOT BE A VILLAINESS IN THIS LIFE.
"I can't believe a trial is happening at the imperial court, sixteen years old attempted to commit murder", "I pity the aunt who raised her since childhood, how could she try to kill her own blood who raised her", "The crown prince be throned, no less, I am happy the royal family cancelled their engagement", "My beloved daughter is around the same age as his highness, I am sure she will be a befitting bride for him" murmurs of both nobles and commoners.
"Entering, His Majesty, the Emperor, his royal's highness, Emperor Sebastian Pendragon" shouted the guards, all nobles rise in unison and bowed, "Hail, his majesty, the sun and star, glory be to the empire", the emperor sat on the highest table, because he was satisfied, with the greeting, other nobles sat down, after they had seen that the king had seated.
"Let's begin the trial", "Miss Elena Elkhart, you stand before the court for the attempted murder of your aunt, Miss Lucille Elkhart, I want to hear your side" said his Majesty, "Father" said I, "Please refrain from calling me your father" said his Majesty, as he cut through my statement, "Have thy majesty forsaken me, thy Majesty that gave the permission for me to address me, as father for I am no longer the crown prince be throned" said I, "You do not befit the role of the crown princess" replied his Majesty, "Our engagement is over", shouted his highness, the crown prince, I smirked, the atmosphere in the court room changed as I smirked, I could hear murmurs but I didn't care cause I finally got what I wanted.
"Your Majesty, I was just punishing a mere count who dared to lay her hands on me, she should be glad that she escaped, because laying hand on a noble deserves to be death, no less a Grand Duchess of Wynknight" said I, with a smirk on my face, "It's a lie, I was just disciplining my niece" shouted my aunt, no more murmurs in the court, even his Majesty trembled at the mention of the Wynknight, "I wanted you to walk away with a slap, but you escalated it by blaming me for attempting to murder you" said I, as I walked towards my aunt, I snatched a sword from the Knight that was guarding me, "Why don't I just kill you right now" said I, there was silence in the court, no one dared to move, murmur in the court stopped, the mere mention of the name Wynknight could shake the entire court.
I was about to slash my sword, "His Highness, Grand Duke Wynknight and his heirs are entering", 'Here, they come, the ones who are going to shake the entire court' thought I, as I smirked.
