A kingdom ruled by those who would not blink an eye to death. 

A friendship in bloom, suddenly crushed by words that do not speak the truth. 

Contessa Fleming lives in the kingdom of Thorn, governed by the Royals. She has residence in Northern Thorn, a place within the kingdom where the wealthiest of the common folk live. 

But there is a poison in her kingdom. 

Her fellow residents of Thorn, Thorneans think that diamonds and titles define their lives, their very worth of living, and the stakes have never been higher. The Royals could not care less about the kingdom that rots in their reign. The contact between themselves and their own people is non-existing. 

When Contessa meets her old childhood friend Eero she is taken back to the soothing comforts of friendship, the beautiful waves of laughter but also the throbbing pain of betrayal. Eero brings here to the palace, the place where everything will change. 

So, the moment she steps into those walls of gilded gold, glamour, and hidden misery she makes a promise. She promises changes both for herself, the Royals and the entire kingdom. Caught in a place between raging morals, friend or foe, will she deliver the promises she made? 

Or will she be forced to serve lies?

A story that happens in an alternative universe in a timeline unknown to us.
