The throne room loomed, a testament to the Queen's formidable power and the kingdom's paradise-like status. Yet, before the golden seat sat a deviant: Choi Beomgyu. His tan skin was smudged, messy brown hair falling over dark eyes that held a defiant tilt. He had attempted the impossible—stealing from the untouchable castle—with his reckless friends, only to be caught by skilled guards. Now, he sat bound, his wide, emotive eyes fixed on the ruler who provided free will yet demanded submission. The air was thick with tension as the Queen prepared to judge the commoner who dared to challenge her birthright.
