A long time ago, in a rundown house in an abandoned forest. There lived a couple, a runaway young princess and a handsome hunter twice her age.
They lived a simple and peaceful life away from the shallow people with judgmental eyes so long that maybe no one even remember them anymore, so long that maybe the kingdom thinks the princess have already died. It will soon be the 10th year, after all.
Even though they didn't live in a huge castle nor had a feast every dinner, the couple was a perfect picture. Having each other's company was all they could ask for and only need. They loved each other.... or so we thought?
Oh, another fairytale. Classic. Smiles, rainbows and happy endings.
