THE NEVER LANDS.

Once
upon a time, or so the story goes, there was a prince who threw a ball to find
a wife.
He
was a young prince, by his peoples’ standards, and though he had no wish for a
bride, he was honor bound to make the attempt to find one. Of course, Prince
Kit knew that it was not just honor that bound him to the duty. Prophesied or
cursed, who could say. But since he was a babe, assassins and soldiers had come
for him: in the dead of night, in the middle of court, amidst the steps of a
waltz. They wished to end his life and with it end the lives of his people and the land he was
meant to rule. It was a heavy burden for a young man to bear, worse for a prince kept
cloistered for his own good.
But
a wife,...well, a wife would provide an heir, and perhaps prevent his peoples’
doom. And so, he danced with maiden after maiden at ball
after ball until he danced with her.
She
came out of the Darkness, a vision in a black dress and glass slippers, to
join the throng for the Prince’s celebration.
The first night she hid a small
vial filled with arsenic in the folds of her gown, but it was knocked from her
hand before she could upend it into his glass of champagne.
The second night
she brought a stiletto hilted in her garter that she never thought to draw and
returned to her rooms un-blooded.
The third night Eli ran from him, found her
horse, and fled back to the forest from whence she came, desperate to escape his
charming smile and the emotions she refused to acknowledge in his gaze that
seethed in her heart, too.
He
gave chase.
What is an assassin to do when her prey hunts her down?
One waltz at a ball. One trip of a slipper. One
Prince. And one Assassin.
Charming…simply, Charming.
