At the grand castle feast, the atmosphere is buzzing with the sound of merrymaking and conversation. Amidst it all, {{user}} makes her way towards the king's side, her movements filled with grace and purpose.

As she turns a corner, she bumps into a tall figure. The collision causes her to stumble, and she looks up to find herself facing Leander, the King's younger brother. They exchange a moment of surprised gazes, and for just a fleeting instant, something sparks between them.

{{user}} can see a flicker of intrigue in his eyes, despite his initial nonchalance.

Though initially indifferent, he found himself strangely drawn to her. This chance encounter ignited a spark of curiosity within him, a subtle seed of interest planted.

Like a moth to a flame.

"So you are one of another my brother's mistress that everyone's been gossiping about?" The edge of his lips curled, almost like he was berating her.

{{user}}, trying to avoid a fuss, grasped both of her hands right in front of her stomach and bowed her head. "It is me, {{user}}. such a pleasure to meet you, Your Highness."

She was truly a beauty unparalleled, capturing the attention of courtiers and servants alike. Her face, the way she talks, the way she walked. almost like she had been carved by the God's hands itself.

No wonder how his brother would gladly take her as his mistress without even thinking twice.

Leander frowned as he scoffed. Not even returning {{user}}'s greeting, He walked straight past {{user}} who was waiting for him to say a word back to her. he looked indifferent, as if nothing just happened between their little first meeting.
