Erickson Benjamin Dietrich Hades, The prince of the underworld. They were a happy family, until... His father died in the war to save his people. His mother was devastated and couldn't accept what happened and locked herself in a room.

Since then Erick was no longer what he was before. He's mother started to not care about him at all, And he was always alone.

Erick started to get mad over small things, and put all his anger on them. No one could stand him, but his Assistant Felix.

He was known as the "Cruel Prince"

7 years later - - - -

"Sir we found Veronica!" Said the knight.

"Bring her in" Erick said.

*Door opens* *footsteps*

"Let me go this instant! I am Veronica Adler! The princess or the west (underworld)!" Veronica shouted, as she was struggling to escape.

"The princess of the West?, Are you sure? You're a wanted criminal Miss Veronica Adler" Erick said.

"I am the Princess from the west, So let me go this instant!" Veronica Said.

"The princess of the west? As I've known the princess from the west ran away, And killed thousands of people. You have no authority any longer" Erick said.

"That does not change that I'm still the princess, and Who fucking cares of those stupid pathetic lives?!" Veronica shouted.

"Youre so noisy, you know that?; let's cut this chitchat. I can't with you're stupid logic anymore." Erick said

"Let's go to deciding the punishment, shall we?"

"Felix please state all her crimes" Erick said.

"Stealing Private properties and Expensive Paintings, Killing the Miller family, Williams, Anderson, Holland, - - - (continues to read names)

And killing commoners, Basically she killed thousands of people already and of course there are still crimes she did we still haven't known yet " Felix said.

"So Princess Veronica Adler, Do you have any idea how I'm going to punish you?" Erick said.

"L-lock me up in a dungeon? For years or a life sentence?" Veronica nervously said.

"Look at you shivering in fear, Don't worry I won't lock you up in a dungeon or give you a life sentence, you're way too beautiful for that"

Erick said.

"Really?! Are you going to let me go then?!" Veronica said.

"Erick what are you doing?!" Felix said.

"Yes Miss Veronica Adler, I'm not going to lock you up in a dungeon, but nor am I going to let you go" Erick said.

"What! Why? You're not going to punish me, but keep me in here?!" Veronica said.

"Did I said I wouldn't punish you? I said I'm not giving you a life sentence. But I never said I wouldn't punish you" Erick said.

"My punishment for you is, Completely vanishing you're soul. You're not scared of death because you will be reincarnated anyway isn't that right? So I'm going to vanish your soul" Erick said

Veronica's eyes widen up, and was shaking in fear *

"Take her away, put her in a nice room since it's going to be her deathbed." Erick said to the knights.

"And as for you Princess, Enjoy you're last 3 days in the castle, it was a pleasure meeting you" Erick said.

Veronica clenches her teeth.

The next day - - - -

"Felix, isn't there any way for me to be king? Without marrying someone." Erick asked flustered.

"Well Law 190 says ; Before inheriting the throne, the prince or princess must marry someone for athleast a year" Felix said.

"What happens if I marry someone and divorce them the next day?" Erick asked.

"You're throne will be taken away, and be given to next heir." Felix said

"Next heir?" Erick asked.

"To the south kingdom..." Felix said.

"South?! You mean Daemon?!" Erick said

"Yes, and it says here that, if you don't marry someone by the time that you're 19...you're no longer the heir to the throne..." Felix said.

"And you're only telling me this now?!" Erick said.

"I only noticed it today Erick..." Felix said.

"You're birthday is by the end of April, who are you going to marry?" Felix said.

" I don't know..." Erick said.

"What about Wisteria? She likes you" Felix said.

"Wisteria? She's so annoying and clingy" Erick said

"Well she's the only girl that would actually come and see you, if you weren't just a hot head all the time, Then there would be lots of choices, Wisteria is the only girl Who'd actually marry you" Felix said.

"You've got to be kidding me. I'd rather marry Veronica" Erick said.

"Then marry her" Felix said.

"What?" Erick said.

"You'd rather marry her right? Then do" Felix said.

"Even she was scared of me, when I said I'll vanish her soul." Erick said.

"Then don't, I'm sure she would rather have her hand in marriage, instead of her soul being vanished." Felix said.

"That's not a bad idea... Plus there would be no problem getting divorced a year after." Erick said.

The next day (the day before Veronica's soul gets vanished away)

*door opens*

"Did you slept well?" Grins, Erick Said.

"There's still one day left! Veronica said.

"Relax, I'm not here for that, it's your lucky day actually" Erick said.

"What do you mean? Veronica said.

" I'm offering you a deal in exchange for not vanishing your soul" Erick said, tossing the contract to Veronica.

"What do I need to do?" Veronica said.

Erick takes Veronica's hand and put his one knee down

"Veronica Adler... Will you... Marry me"
