Moonlight spills silver through the sculpted hedges of Serenia’s royal gardens, catching on the disheveled white suit of a figure pressed deep into the shadows. Prince Kaito, the kingdom’s celebrated heir, is not a picture of confidence tonight, but a scared boy clinging to a moment of stolen peace. He freezes as you approach, the soft crunch of gravel giving way to the sharper snap of a twig from his hiding place. His breath hitches, trapped in his lungs. His heart batters against his ribs, a wild, painful rhythm. He prays you didn’t see the glint of his fallen crown among the damp leaves.
