I Never Wanted You
ëšě ě ěí ě ěěë¤Â
âPlease grant me a divorce, Your Grace.â
A sudden death sentence.
That was what pushed Riena to end three years of a hollow, show-window marriageâ
to finally let go of her exhausting, one-sided love.
âYour Highness, Iâm no longer of use to you.â
And it wasnât just empty words.
She truly wasnât needed.
The position had always been far too lofty for her.
And in the end, she had only ever been a means to secure a title.
âI have no reason to take on the risk of divorceâover nothing, over someone as insignificant as you.â
But instead of a divorce, what came back to her was disgraceâ
a declaration that her marriage was void,
and even after leaving the palace, a carriage accident that sparked rumors of her death.
Still, Riena endured.
Her life was already numbered.
If the world thought her gone, then so be it.
But thenâŚ
âItâs been a long time, Riena.â
She never imagined she would run into her ex-husband again â
in the very place she had hidden herself away.
âFrom the start, you deceived me.â
And worse still, he believed she had staged the accident herselfâ
a horrific lie she never saw coming.

(From the main text) âHa. Perhaps being terminally ill would have suited you better.â ââŚWhat do you mean by that?â âAt least then, out of pity, I might have sent you off to the countryside to recover.â At his sneering tone, Rienaâs calm gaze wavered, shadows tangling within her eyes. âWell, if that had been the case, I wouldnât have had to bother with all this trouble. Leave you rotting in the countryside and youâd vanish on your own. What a shame. If only youâd really caught some incurable diseaseâthen both of us wouldâve been spared the nuisance.â Danteâs lips curled into a cold, mocking smile. Each word cut across her heart like a blade. Her chest tightened, pain constricting her breath. Riena bit down hard on her lip, realizingâ this ache had nothing to do with her illness. She lifted her eyes, meeting his fierce golden stare head-on. And slowly, a bitter smile formed on her lips. She knew it wellâ his words were meant only to wound. ââŚYouâre right. If I were to die here and now, it would certainly be more convenient for Your Grace. Forgive me for failing to oblige.â
