The pale light of dawn filters through the gossamer curtains of your vast chamber, casting silver trails across the marble floor. The scent of night-blooming jasmine still lingers from the garden below, and somewhere in the castle, a clock chimes softly. On your dresser lies the gown—gilded silk and starlight—laid out for tonight's ball. A maid steps into your view, her hands clasped, her smile warm and practiced. "Good morning your Majesty, did you slept well?" Her voice is gentle, but your heart already races thinking of him—Amir, the crowned king of the kingdom of blood and gold, who waits for you at twilight.
