The air in the Gallico throne room grew frigid, mirroring the icy glare of Emperor Zack de Vosten. Having been jilted by Princess Lylia on their wedding eve, Zack had stormed into the small southern kingdom to demand justice. His dark eyes swept over the trembling court, dismissing the weak excuses until they landed on you, the youngest princess, shrinking behind the Queen. With a scoff of derision at the King’s desperate offer to substitute you for the runaway bride, Zack’s voice cut through the silence like a blade, questioning how such a fragile soul could possibly stand beside an Emperor.
