Marry the Villainess
My Reign
The storms have been raging for the past week nonstop in the Rathore Kingdom
the incessant rain and the constant thunders have ruined the citizens' mood completely
And they couldn't feel safe at all
Out there, there was a murderer lurking around, waiting for the moment to strike
...well, what the citizens did not know is that the murderer has already struck
And the murderer chose the royalty as their target
Ruelle Rathore (Villainess)
*plunged the dagger deep in her throat
Janine Rathore (Villainess' Mom)
*eyes open, blood running out of her mouth and throat
Ruelle watched her mother's torturous death with a smile
her mother's blood soaked Ruelle's dress and stained it deep red
Ruelle's hands were dripping with her mother's blood as she held Janine tightly by her chin
Carlos Rathore (Villainess' Dad)
Ruelle...my daughter... *afraid to approach her*
Ruelle Rathore (Villainess)
*snapped her eyes to her Dad
Ruelle Rathore (Villainess)
Ruelle Rathore (Villainess)
You...knew it was going to happen like this, right?
Ruelle released her Mother's body and it fell down with a thud.
The Queen's crown fell down to the floor, clinking loudly...while Ruelle approached her father slowly
Carlos Rathore (Villainess' Dad)
*backing away, shaking his head vehemently*
Carlos Rathore (Villainess' Dad)
No, Ruelle...my dear...
Carlos Rathore (Villainess' Dad)
It is not like that!
Carlos Rathore (Villainess' Dad)
We only thought the best for you!
Ruelle Rathore (Villainess)
...
Carlos Rathore (Villainess' Dad)
*thinking he can convince her* Ruelle...we can fi-
Ruelle Rathore (Villainess)
don't call me by my name
Ruelle Rathore (Villainess)
*looked at him, her hand never leaving the bloody dagger
Carlos Rathore (Villainess' Dad)
*swallowed, nodding in fear*
Carlos Rathore (Villainess' Dad)
O-of course...anything for m-
Ruelle Rathore (Villainess)
The blood seeped out of his chest like a river.
and there, Ruelle smiled to herself
She knelt down on the floor, wiping her tears with her bloodied palms
Ruelle Rathore (Villainess)
Finally...
Ruelle Rathore (Villainess)
Finally! *laughing*
Ruelle laughed hard, her eyes seemed joyful but the tears streamed down her cheeks like a steady river
she laughed whenever she wanted to let out her painful tears.
After what seemed like an hour, Ruelle looked out the window
And saw the storms slowly subsiding, but the rain was still pouring like a bucket
Ruelle Rathore (Villainess)
*stood up slowly
She glanced down at the dead bodies of her parents and smiled
Then, something shining caught her eye.
She looked towards the glitter and saw that it was the Queen's crown
Ruelle Rathore (Villainess)
*walking towards there and bent down to take it in her hands*
She admired the jewels and the design of the crown
But, most of all, she admired the power the crown held.
Since now...there is no Queen and King...
The only person left to inherit the throne...
Ruelle Rathore (Villainess)
*placed the crown on her head and went to the mirror to look at herself
Ruelle Rathore (Villainess)
Ruelle Rathore (Villainess)
*smiled wickedly
Ruelle went out of the room and the guards, and servants all looked at the new Queen of Rathore
They all bowed down as deeply as they could, fearing the power and the danger she held now
Ruelle Rathore (Villainess)
...
Ruelle Rathore (Villainess)
From today onwards,
Ruelle Rathore (Villainess)
Call me the Queen of Rathore.
Guards
*bowed deeply in fear*
Guards
All hail the Queen Rathore!
Maids
All hail the Queen Rathore!
Ruelle Rathore (Villainess)
*smiled, her eyes never showing regret*
Ruelle Rathore (Villainess)
My reign...will be endless
Magic Trick
There was a notorious joker, known for his impeccably flawless...
assassination of the late Queen of Giordania,
merciless hanging of the President,
Car accident of the Princess Rachel,
Drug overdose of the worldwide famous singer, Travis Fitzgerald...
people think these were mere accidents, or successful suicide attempts...
Not knowing that behind all of these murders, there was only one man behind it all.
And when his clients asked them how he could kill a man so flawlessly...
He would give a crazy smile, looking at their eyes and shrugging it off by saying:
Zander Dragan (ML)
*got out of the swimming pool, drying his hair carelessly
Butler
*standing next to him, his head bowed, gaze lowered
Butler
the client Seddy has transferred his payment.
Zander Dragan (ML)
*getting his clothes out of the wardrobe, unbothered*
Butler
Volter has also invited you to play at the casino with him
no answer came from Zander.
He dressed himself, sat down at his desk, leaning back in his armchair
And the Butler could say nothing
He feared death would come to him every day because Zander was... unpredictable
He would sometimes get into his moods that triggered his...crazy hobby
On those days, he would invite one of the servants to his room,
look at them with a wide smile and then perform a magic trick,
which always ended in the servant's quick death.
Zander Dragan (ML)
Hand me a cigar, will you?
The Butler instantly sprang to his feet, handing him a cigarette
Zander lit it up and placed the cigarette between his lips, taking comfort in the feeling of smoke...and burning
Zander followed the same routine every day:
Swimming pool in the morning,
A quick cigar after that,
And casino in the evenings
Zander Dragan (ML)
*got the cigarette out of his lips, looking at the ceiling indifferently
Zander Dragan (ML)
Casino, you said?
Butler
*nodded tersely* yes, Sir.
Zander Dragan (ML)
... it's become quite boring...
Zander Dragan (ML)
Swimming, smoking, gambling...
Zander Dragan (ML)
the same thing every day...
Zander suddenly sat up in his armchair, his eyes bearing that eager glow and...smiling
Butler
(I know what this smile means)
The Butler hoped with his dear life that it wasn't what he was thinking...
Zander Dragan (ML)
Hyde... *tilting his head with a smile
Butler
*closed his eyes, fearing of what's going to happen next
Zander Dragan (ML)
You wanna see a magic trick?
Card
Please remember this is a fictional work and if these scenes make you uncomfortable, then do not read the story.
Zander Dragan (ML)
*stepped over the butler's dead body
Killing has gotten into my habit,
I will not be proud of what I am doing,
But I can't stop it either.
It has become an obsession of mine...
it is like an addiction...
Just like how people get addicted to drugs,
Just like how people get addicted to intercourse,
I get addicted to...homicide
I love the feeling of blood on my clothes,
I love seeing the lifelessness, the silence, the peace...
Zander Dragan (ML)
*washed his hands with the tap water
I also like playing games,
I like playing tricks on the human mind
I love seeing them get surprised at my magic tricks...
And these simple magic tricks come in handy when I am playing casino:
I always slip in a wild joker card, resulting in my win and getting all the money from the other gamblers
Zander Dragan (ML)
*opened the box, scanning the joker cards
The Joker is considered a wild card in one of the casino games.
and there is only one Joker card in each set.
And when you pull it out, you can turn the Joker into any card you want: ace, hearts, spades...anything
Zander Dragan (ML)
*eyes fell on the one card that stood out in its design
I don't remember I had this card in my possession...
Zander Dragan (ML)
*slipped the card into his sleeve, smiling*
Zander Dragan (ML)
(guess I will use you tonight)
I close the box and then look over my room before locking the door,
I squint my eyes; something in my room doesn't feel right
I re-enter, and then approach my desk
I notice that a book appeared on my desk
And it had the same design as the Joker card that I found in the box
Zander Dragan (ML)
*read the title aloud*
Zander Dragan (ML)
81 Days Left
I open the book and read its summary
I get bored of the storyline and make my way out, locking the door behind me as I go to the casino
