The grand ballroom blazed with candlelight, its golden glow dancing across silk gowns and polished armor. Laughter and chatter swirled through the air, but the moment I stepped past the marble columns, the room fell into a hushed reverence. Every gaze locked onto me — the Crown Princess, clad in dark velvet and jasmine-scented grace. I walked past the foreign prince without a glance.

My voice was soft, but the question hung in the air, demanding an answer.
