To Avoid Falling In Love

Being invited to the crown princes birthday as a potential courting partner isn't something you can ignore easily, even if you are his younger brother's closest friend.

Alphaea Raze, the duke's daughter, is stuck in the middle of this issue. When she gets invited to His Highness, Cyrus Arcane's birthday she wants to hurl. Getting there is even worse, as the king and queen scrutinize her ever movement and the other young ladies around her act like they have never seen a man before. And what is the icing on the cake you may ask? That would have to be that Cyrus Arcane seems to be an asshole she immediately can't stand.

Going to this party may be the death of her, literally. How are you even supposed to fall in love with such a rude man anyways?
