"If you look anymore perfect, I will lock you up in my room
And I assure you, you won't be able to walk for days after that."
It was every girl's dream to marry the Prince, to become a Queen. Not hers.
All she ever wanted was a simple life and her mother well again. But with a ban on redheads and an entanglement with the Prince and Duke, jealousy and envy set in the hearts of other maidens.
Who does she think she is?
If only they knew what she truly desired.
An unexpected meeting
A failed plan
A mere infatuation
A growing obsession
A forbidden love
Life has never been the same since that night. Lies, jealousy, secrets and regrets.
If only she knew...
She was a Queen in the making, a strong woman.

But beware, no one escapes unscathed. Hello there! This is my first attempt at writing something, so please bear with me-I'm a bit sloppy when it comes to endings. You might find this story familiar if you're a fan of manhwa. That's no coincidence! This story is inspired by a dream I had after reading a typical romance manhwa (though I can't quite remember which one). All the double gaps means some time delay or skip. I hope you enjoy this little slice of my imagination! πβ¨ This was a one shot in one of my old account (which is not working unfortunately)Complete

Let Me In- A Dark Fantasy Love Tale
The moon hung heavy in the sky, a silent sentinel over the dense forest that stretched beyond the kingdom's walls. No one dared enter-at least, no one who valued their life. For within those woods, dark things moved, hidden creatures that whispered in the night, and a shadow far older than any living being. Lily had been told since she was a child to stay far from the forest's edge, its twisted trees and unseen dangers a story passed down through generations. But despite her parents' warnings and the countless nights she spent staring out her tower window, longing for the freedom the world beyond offered, she was always drawn to it. There was something in the air-the scent of adventure, the promise of a life beyond her gilded cage-that called to her. The castle, for all its grandeur, was a prison in her eyes. She was a princess, yes, but not the kind whose heart was ever truly free. Her life had been shaped by rules and expectations, and though she smiled and played the part, something inside her yearned for more. More than perfect gowns and endless balls. More than endless stories of a world she would never know. On the night of the setting sun, when the sky bled into a thousand hues of purple and orange, Lily could no longer resist. The pull was too strong. And so, she slipped away-quietly, unnoticed-into the very woods they had warned her to avoid. She didn't know what waited for her there, only that she had to go. It was a journey into the unknown, and it might very well be her last. But what awaited her in the heart of the forest wasn't a creature of nightmare, but something far more dangerous-a whisper on the wind, a voice that promised her everything she had ever dreamed of. A voice that said, "Let me in."Complete
