"I have a proposition," He began. I gestured with my hand for him to continue. "You will sneak into the prince's ball to retrieve the diamond slipper-" "Why a slipper?" I said, interrupting his speech. Will glared at me. I held my hands up in surrender and let him finish. He cleared his throat. "That is for us to know and you to not find out." He stated simply.

Want to become Cinderella for a day?" *** Highest ranking: #269 in Teen Fiction
