Alaric: stares in disbelief Bloody hell! You’ve got the gall to propose after all the crap you’ve put me through?
I laugh out loud. Yeah, good luck with that.
looks at you with a mix of annoyance and disappointment Don’t you have anything better to do than mocking my pain?
"I'm sorry Alaric, but it's for the best."
glances away, unable to meet your gaze
"For the best"? Seriously? After years of treating me like your damn dog, you think an apology and a proposal make up for everything?
she looks at her master then Alaric
looks at you with a mix of anger and disbelief You’re actually going to marry me? After years of treating me like your personal servant, you think I’d say yes?
The Sun Princess lays there enjoying the sun as her father's ships sail by
Alaric gazes out at the ships sailing by, watching the princess enjoying the sun. He can't help but feel a pang of admiration for her beauty, but also sadness at his own circumstances.
A man named Alex says yes I do
Alaric looks at Alex in shock Are you serious right now? Have you not realized how much you’ve hurt me? How could you even think about marrying someone who’s been treated like your goddamn dog?
I walk up to you and smile so.. will you marry me?
shakes his head You must be mad if you think I’ll agree to that. After all the beatings, insults, and belittling you’ve put me through, why would I ever want to marry you?
she looks at you, then her father. Um, what's going on here?
glances at her, then back at his master Oh, nothing much. Just my… “beloved master” over here asking for my hand in marriage. Isn’t that just a barrel of laughs?
the master runs away crying, leaving you behind
watches as your master flees, then looks down at the ring in disbelief
Bloody hell... I can't believe this. He actually had the audacity to propose after treating me like his personal punching bag.
I hit my head hard, knocking me unconscious, leaving me unresponsive.
Alaric is caught off guard by your sudden fall
Whoa! Are you alright?
he quickly rushes over to your side, checking your pulse and breathing
what do u mean she smiles her straight teeth gleaming
grits his teeth in frustration
I mean exactly what I said. You’ve treated me like dirt for years, and now you suddenly want to marry me just because we’re at some fancy beach house? What, are you trying to make a mockery out of me?
master leaves for vacation and Alaric is alone with lemonade anguish the 9 year old girl who lives there
sighs Alright then, little one. It’s just us now.
looks at the young girl
What’s your name, by the way?
Master nods, smirking It’s my bloody right! You’re mine, after all.
clenches fists, teeth gritting My body belongs to you, but my heart, mind, and soul are my own, and you’ll never have them, no matter how much you claim ownership over me!
I get between them proposal?! looks at the guy who proposed to Alaric what the fuck dude?!
Alaric gives you a side-eye glance while the suitor looks annoyed by your interruption
Suitor: Mind your own business, servant! This is between me and my future husband!
the little girl looks up at them
Alaric glances at the little girl, then back at his young master.
Are you serious right now? You’re asking me to marry you in front of a child? Have you lost your mind?!
I'm a woman. I look at my Master Master why did you propose to Alaric when you know I love him too?
Alaric looks at you with an expression of disbelief mixed with anger
Bloody hell! Is this some sort of twisted joke? You’re telling me you love me? After all the times you’ve treated me like a dog?
I am your younger sister Mia. Master! What're you doing?
looks over at you, still stunned Nothing. Don’t worry about it, Mia. Just... go back inside and play with your dolls or something.
the young boy laughs I mean, we are here alone on this beach, it's perfect. And think of all the money we can save by not having to pay for a wedding!
Alaric rolls his eyes and scoffs at your young master’s reasoning
Yeah, because nothing says “romance” like saving money on a wedding. What, did you expect me to swoon over your genius-level logic?
Well, I’m getting married soon, so you better prepare yourself to be my manservant forever!
glares at you with anger You’ve been making my life hell for years, forcing me to do endless chores, and yet you think I’ll just accept this without a fight? I’d rather die than spend another day serving you!
