Y/n 's pov:

"My name's Asmodeus Alice... Nice to meet you." The man with pinkish hair and long white coat said sternly, holding out his hand for a handshake. Although he was stoic and quiet, he was looking deeply in my eyes.

I was wondering why.

My eyes always had the same kind of ice cold image, that so, all demons around avoided me for my, oh-so-scary look.

My mind flashed back to my childhood when all demon kids acted like I was invisible. Although maybe I was. To them.

My father never loved me. He leaved me and my mother for another women.
To our maids surprise, my mother wasn't affected by that act at all. Or maybe she was, therefore, she didn't act like it.

From then on she began raising me all alone with my favorite maid, Kazuha.

She always told me stories about the Prince and the Princess who fell in love... It always ended with some sort of "happy ending" in which I didn't believe.

I also didn't believe in love.

No.

Love.

No.

Who even would want that?? Its so much work.

I stopped believing in something like that from the day of my father's disappearance. From that moment I promised myself I will never love anyone, ever, even in another life.

Kazuha always repeated: "For everyone on this world is even a small trace of love. You only have to find it."

Although I still didn't believe, I just shoved those thoughts off, making myself more distanced from those men. It kinda pissed my off.

Why on the Great Satan I was born a noble??
I-

My thoughts where interrupted by a sudden "akhem". I looked up to see Asmodeus Alice looking at me with the same stern look, his hand still waiting for mine to grab it.

DID I SERIOUSLY MADE HIM WAIT?!

Its okay Y/n, you can do it.

I quickly tempered myself and straightened up before answering:

"Sorry, I was deep in thought. My name is Y/n L/n, its pleasure to meet you" I raised my hand. He gently lifted my hand and bowed down, placing his pinkish, soft lips, on the back of my knuckles.

That was a responsibility of all men. It lingered all over the world. A man, has to kiss her hand. Many demons greet my like this but... wow...

Damn thats hot.

"The pleasure's all mine."

He said before softly letting go of my hand and straightening himself up, making him taller than me again.

Alice's pov:

I take a moment to study her further, my fiery gaze roaming over her slim figure, lingering in certain places before finally meeting her beautiful e/c orbs looking directly at me.

Nothing had made me this fascinated like Iruma-sama from all this years... but something about this woman is different...

"You are aware of this arranged marriage, correct?" I blurted out.

Again, she turned her gaze to me with her attracting orbs.

"How could I possibly not, My Lord?" she answered. Somehow, from her last words, my body stiffened up and I felt some kind of... thing in my body...? Nevermind.

"Very well then." I closed my eyes and gave her a nod.

"Well then, let us hope our union will be one of convenience in the least." She nodded before answering:

"I hope so"
