After two months, I have been allowed to go outside of the castle. So long I stay in view of the castle and I am back within an hour or two.

At first, I had to have an escort, but Captiosus has been very silent so I had been given permission to go by myself.

During those two months though, a lot of things has happened. I am now engaged to Gajeel.

He proposed to me in the gardens at sunset and the ring was so beautiful. It had a large diamond on it and the band is made of three strands of Silver, gold, and iron braided together. The ring was fit for a queen to wear.

While I am daydreaming about Gajeel, a poor old man walking towards me.

"Excuse my intrusion, my lady, I am an herbalist and I found these wonderful roses and I was wondering if maybe you had flowers with an odor like these?" the hunched old man asked as he pulls out a bouquet of white roses.

I dismount and he hands them to me. I lower my face in them to get a nice whiff of them.

As I smell the flowers, I begin to feel faint. I try to move my face away from them but the old man holds me in place and I almost immediately faint.

The last thing I see is the old man transformed into Jose tying my arms behind my back and putting me on a huge black stallion that appeared out of nowhere then my vision goes black.

After my stepdaughter faints, I rip a piece of her dress off and put her ring in a small bag. Along with a note stating that the engagement is off for she has to pay for her treason.

I tie the bag to the saddle and gave the horse go in the direction of the castle and then I move her in a sack and position it so it looks like a simple travel bag. I laugh as I ride off towards my kingdom.

No one can stop me now. I think as I ride off with my stepdaughter.
