Alexandria took in a long shaky breath. Her eyes travelled back to the stone structure she had called home for nineteen years and then back to the world she would be entering for the first time.
"Are you ready?" he asked, extending his hand out to her.
The walls that held her here seemed taller and more daunting up close.
'Am I ready?' she thought.
"There's a whole world waiting out there for you, Princess. All you have to do is take it."
One final step, one final breath, one final decision and it was settled.
It was time to face the real world.
~~~~~
Princess Alexandria Jewel Grace Piper Ferdinand had never exited the palace gates. For years they had long been shut; never for her to go through. However, as her coronation looms closer, the pressure becomes more overbearing. Can she, as an 19-year- old, really rule a country she's never set foot in?
21-year-old Thomas Collins wanted nothing more than to run from the palace. As a child, he dreamed only of what was inside of it, before he realised it wasn't the idyllic life his parents had made it out to be. After escaping the life he had come to hate, he is drawn back into it, only to find his future ruler has never once set foot outside the walls and has not a clue to the world outside.
Could the runaway lord and royal scandal show the future queen what life is really like? Or is the countries fate already sealed?
