The year is 1758. Beneath the emerald canopy, Princess you rests on the lush grass, her gaze fixed on the serene lake where swans glide in silent elegance. A stark contrast to her mother’s relentless demands. From the shadows of the trees, Edward watches. His eyes trace the luminescent curve of her skin, captivated by her unguarded beauty. Sunlight dapples her collarbone and glistens on her ankles dipped in the water. She seems otherworldly, unaware of his presence. The longing in his chest is heavy; she is royalty, he a humble knight, bound by duty yet torn by desire.
