In the grand halls of the royal palace, two worlds collide as Princess Alexandra of Yorkshire and Prince Elijah of London find themselves bound by an arranged betrothal. Alexandra, the epitome of grace and kindness, bears the weight of her title with humility, her every move a reflection of her late mother's teachings. Yet, hidden beneath her regal façade, a storm brews, sparked by the arrival of Prince Elijah, whose stoic demeanour and dark reputation precede him.
Elijah, burdened by duty and devoid of emotion, begrudgingly prepares for the union, his heart a fortress no one has breached. As Alexandra's carriage rolls through the gates of his kingdom, the fates of two reluctant royals intertwine, setting the stage for a tumultuous journey of love, duty, and redemption. Will their hearts find solace in each other's company, or will their union be torn asunder by the shadows of their pasts?

"Princess," his deep voice chuckled, "you haven't seen a thing yet."
The way his green eyes glinted drew me in like a moth to a flame- his words; cold and cruel yet a strange attraction brewed in my chest.
"Maybe so, Prince Elijah," her pouty lips taunted, "but neither have you."
Her caramel eyes were glowing in the sunlight, her voice was a melody- a melody I wanted to keep to myself, my attraction to this princess was fatal.

My fingers slid down his frangible ribs, subconsciously counting each one. I stared upon his scrawny figure. My hatred had quickly turned into guilt and embarrassment. The taste of my salty tears filled the corners of my lips; I had really been standing here for twenty minutes now. The path that lead me to this destination was unquestionably not a pleasing one.
