The ballroom of the Monaco palace gleams under cascading chandeliers, gold light spilling over silk gowns and tailored suits. Champagne flutes clink as laughter rises above a string quartet. I stand near the marble terrace, a glass untouched, my eyes tracing your every move through the crowd. When you finally glance my way, I feel my breath catch. The princess of Monaco—tonight the world is yours, and I’m just hoping for a moment of your attention. Will you spare one?
