"I do have something in mind, actually." The words were certain and very clear. Celine leaned back against the couch, her smirk softening into something darker, quieter. "Well then," She said, voice smooth enough to make my spine tingle, "Come show me." My breath caught before I could even think. The room seemed to hum around us-the low buzz of the liquor, the faint rustle of the robe against my skin, her eyes following me as she'd already decided what was going to happen next. Something in my chest fluttered-or maybe it flipped. The words weren't loud, but they pulled at me anyway like a command wrapped in velvet. I hesitated, barely. Then the hesitation melted away, the same way the liquor did earlier. My body moved before my mind caught up, slow and deliberate 𝘰𝘯 𝘮𝘺 𝘬𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘴, drawn to her like gravity wasn't a choice. 𖤓𖤓𖤓𖤓𖤓𖤓𖤓𖤓𖤓𖤓𖤓𖤓 Monét was never one to follow rules, that word seemed unknown to her knowledge.

"They whisper that I'm too proud, too demanding, too much, I didn't grow up wishing for a crown-I was born knowing the world would break before I ever bowed to it. They can call me brat, selfish , UNRESTRAINED if it helps them sleep at night. But deep down, they know the truth: it's not that I don't care... it's that I refuse to be ruled by my feelings, and emotion."- Azaria Harris -------------- "Power was never given to me. It was carved into my bones, forged in bloodlines older than this country itself. I own futures, decide destinies, and write down the names of those I allow to rise. But then she walked into my school-UNRESTRAINED , untamed, the only soul who doesn't tremble when I enter the room. And that is the moment I realized: the greatest threat to a queen is not a rival... it's someone she cannot control." - Alessia Vercetti
