It was too late to stop what was happening.

A woman had taken your place, and was currently being wed to Prince Derek, your true love. And he wouldn’t know it was an old hag in disguise until everything was being unfolded right in front of him.

Racing through the village of Chamberg, you picked up your skirts and sprinted as quickly as you could, the looming towers of the beautiful palace right before you.

You finally sped through the courtyard leading up to the chapel-

The two guard stationed in front of the large doors blocked your entrance with their spears. And just before them? An exact replica of you in a pristine white dress, smirking as she stood beside Derek, who was grinning as he offered his strong arm to her.

You watched with sinking despair, waiting for the priest to announce this woman as Odette.

“Announcing, your Princess Odile,” He said. “And Prince Derek!”

Your mouth dropped in shock. Derek had even believed you’d changed your name.

He grinned, waving across the crowds.
