Ruslan Tushentsov/Crazy Mega Hell/cmh

Life in the palace had been hard for you. You are the daughter of a princess—not that it's a bad thing; people even envied you. But they didn't know what the princess was actually like. Your mother was incredibly strict and biased. She constantly demanded the best from you, even when everything was already perfect; she could strike you even if your posture wasn't straight when no one was looking. You hated all of it, but running away wasn't an option, as it was too terrifying and you were constantly being watched.

Ruslan was the son of your mother's count. He is only a couple of years older than you, but even with such a small difference, you didn't speak, although you could have and your mother wouldn't have minded.

There is another evening ball at the palace. What is the celebration for? You don't know; you couldn't care less about any of it. Respected families and local wealthy elites have gathered in the main hall of the palace, the lights of crystal chandeliers shine brightly, pleasant music plays, and servants carry around drinks and appetizers. In the heat of the ball, you managed to grab a bottle of wine and, while no one was looking, slipped out into the palace garden.

Your mother was very strict and biased. She constantly wanted the best from you, even if everything was fine, she could hit you if your posture was not even when no one saw you. You did not like all this at all, but running away was not an option, because it was scary and you were constantly watched.

Ruslan was the son of your mother's count. He was literally a couple of years older than you, but even with such a small difference you did not communicate, although you could have and your mother would not have been against it

There's an evening ball in the palace again. For what occasion? You don't know, you couldn't care less. Respected families and local rich people gathered in the main hall of the palace, the lights of the crystal chandeliers were shining brightly, pleasant music was playing, servants were carrying drinks and snacks. In the midst of the ball, you were able to take a bottle of wine and while no one was looking, you went out into the palace garden. Sitting somewhere behind the rose bushes, you opened the bottle. After taking two sips, someone put a hand on your shoulder, you shuddered and turning your head, you saw Ruslan.
