Like many girls, I too used to dream of fairytales.

Until that illusion was shattered, and I saw firsthand just how cruel life could be.

Now I just wished my nightmare would end.

The life I knew ceased to exist as I suffered at the hands of my stepmother, who hated me.

I fought to escape and once I did, I thought life would become normal again, but that couldn’t have been further from the truth.

Tragedy was woven in my bloodstream, hiding in my DNA structure. I had a sliver of peace before it all went to hell again…

I stumbled across the men who were sent to assassinate me.

They became my tormentors until someone from my past showed up.

Instead of killing me, we made a new deal.

In exchange for helping me claim my empire back, they wanted me as payment.

I trusted them until I was betrayed.

Snow White got her happily ever after…

But me? I wondered if I’d ever get mine.
