Alina's POV:

After I sent the maid away, I was all alone in the room. Several guards had been posted outside to prevent me from escaping.

I sat in front of the dressing table and studied myself in the mirror. There was no color in my cheeks and my eyes shone with unconcealed anxiety.

I was such a loser.

My relationship had failed, and now my father had locked me in this room so he could marry me off for his own benefit.

The people I'd thought would always be by my side had all let me down in the end.

I was alright with Rufus abandoning me, but how could Warren also leave me behind? He had betrayed me a long time ago, but still pretended to be heartbroken, making me believe that he had lived a life of agony without me.

But he was, in fact, very happy.

I used to enjoy fairy tales; princess and her knight in shining armor. Now I finally realized fairy tales were only for kids; they would never bring solace to adults struggling in real life!
