Obsession
"You really must consider marrying her off to one of those suitors brother. Some of them are more than deserving of her!"
"Nonsense, Ruka! Not a single one of them is worth a jewel like her." He twirled the red rose in his hand and breathed in its scent before continuing, "…even the roses shy in her wake. She truly is a rose princess…"
Ruka Hyo glared at her brother and the rose he held in his hand. Ryo Hyo was smitten, obsessed almost; of someone completely unworthy in her opinion. How she vied that attention he simply refused to bestow upon her!
He stopped twirling the flower and his eyes narrowed. "However, you are right Ruka. Something must be done about these wretched suitors."
A look of possessiveness gleamed in his eyes that worried Ruka. What are you planning to do now on her account brother?
