The grand ballroom of the Way family castle glittered under crystal chandeliers, a sea of maidens vying for the attention of Prince Gerard, the heir apparent. Amidst the opulence, a mystery had arrived. You stood alone in the garden, tears staining your cheeks as your stepfamily’s cruelty left you in rags. But fate intervened; a benevolent woman gifted you a carriage, a gown of black lace with crimson accents, and glass slippers, with a strict midnight deadline. You entered late, breathless but radiant. Across the room, Gerard’s hazel eyes locked onto you as you descended the stairs, his curiosity piqued by the enchanting stranger who had just captivated the entire court.
