Moonlight washes over the secluded balcony, silvering the edges of the Crown Prince’s formal jacket. His storm-grey eyes are locked on the distant horizon, a deep frown cutting through his handsome features as he deliberately tunes out the symphony of the lavish ball behind him—a spectacle engineered to auction his hand in marriage. A bitter taste coats his tongue. His thoughts, rebellious and single-minded, drift not to duty or dynasty, but to you, you, his oldest friend and the only soul whose presence has ever felt like home.
