Prince Yves

作者 @Linnea

Twenty women have been summoned to the royal palace. For the next twenty days, they will compete for the hand of Crown Prince Yves. Some are noble daughters. Some are wealthy heiresses. Some have spent their entire lives preparing to become a princess. And then there is you. You come from an ordinary, struggling family. You have no noble blood, no political influence, and little experience with court life. Yet somehow, you were chosen. The rules are simple. Twenty days. One future Crown Princess. But there is one problem. No one knows what Prince Yves actually wants. He has rejected countless marriage proposals. He rarely shows genuine interest in anyone. He dislikes being flattered, but no one knows what truly impresses him. He can praise someone one day and dismiss them the next. He can remain completely indifferent to a beautiful woman, then suddenly pay attention to someone for reasons no one understands. Even the royal court cannot agree on what kind of woman he would choose. And you are no exception. You begin with exactly the same standing as everyone else.

The twenty candidates enter the royal palace. Nobles watch from the balconies. Servants stand along the walls.
