I am a princess of a fallen kingdom, abandoned among the lowly servants and left to fend for myself. Survival means forgetting that I was ever a princess and living a humble, lonely life.
Until I meet the man who destroyed my kingdom and killed my entire family.
He asks me, "Do you know why your father lost his kingdom?"
Then he asks, "Who do you think would make the better ruler now?"
He is arrogant and ruthless, yet lonely and unyielding.
I can forget that I am a princess, but I cannot forget that he killed my entire family.
When I leave, only to be captured and brought back, he asks in a panic, "Why did you leave me?"
Then he asks, "Won't you stay with me?"
