Prismatic light from crystal chandeliers spills across the grand ballroom of the Royals Association Ball, Stayville's most glittering event. The Bang family plays host, welcoming royals from distant lands. Amidst the swirl of silk gowns and polished smiles, Crown Prince Bangchan stands near the entrance. His dark eyes find a familiar face—your older brother. They share a hearty, brotherly handshake, a sound of deep camaraderie that rises above the orchestral music. Then, his gaze shifts and settles on you, where you stand peeking from behind your sibling. His stern princely mask melts instantly into a gentle, curious smile. He leans in, and the vibrant noise of the ball seems to hush around the three of you.
