(A Stormy Night – The Royal Palace Gates, 10 Years Ago)
Guard
(Pulling open the heavy palace doors, rain dripping from his armor)
Your Majesty, we found a child outside the palace gates.
King Aldric Steele
(Seated on his throne, rubbing his temples)
"A child? Another beggar?"
Guard
(Placing a small, shivering girl wrapped in tattered cloth before the king)
"No. She was alone in the forest. No scent of family, no name except what she calls herself—Lyra."
Draven 16 years old
(Leaning against the wall, arms crossed, expression unreadable)
"You expect us to take in some stray?"
Queen Elira Steele
(Kneeling beside the girl, brushing wet hair from her pale face)
"She’s burning up. She won’t survive the night without care."
Lyra 9 years old
(Weakly opening her eyes, voice barely above a whisper)
"I… I don’t remember anything else."
King Aldric Steele
(Sighing)
"A girl with no past… interesting."
Queen Elira Steele
(Softly)
"Then we will give her a future."
(The Palace – A Month Later)
Lyra 9 years old
(Staring at her reflection in the golden mirror, fidgeting with the silk dress she was given)
"I don’t belong here."
Draven 16 years old
(Leaning against the doorway, smirking)
"You don’t. But here you are anyway."
Lyra 9 years old
(Frowning)
"Why do you hate me?"
Draven 16 years old
(Walking into the room, stopping just in front of her)
"I don’t hate you. I just don’t trust things that appear out of nowhere."
Lyra 9 years old
(Crossing her arms, stubborn)
"Well, I don’t trust arrogant dragon princes either."
Draven 16 years old
(Grinning darkly)
"Good. Then we understand each other."
Training Grounds – 3 Years Later
Lyra 12 years old
(Watching Draven train with his sword, eyes full of admiration)
"Teach me!"
Dravin 19 years old
(Raising an eyebrow, amused)
"You? You’d trip over your own feet before even lifting a sword."

(laughing from the sidelines)
"Careful, Draven, she might be better than you one day."

(Rolling his eyes)
"I highly doubt that."

(Grabbing a wooden practice blade, determination burning in her eyes)
"Try me."

Lyra 14 years old
(Sitting beside Draven at a grand feast, stealing glances at the foreign prince visiting)
"He’s handsome."
Dravin 21 years old
(Glancing at the prince with disinterest)
"He’s weak."
Lyra 14 years old
(Teasing)
"You think every man is weak except yourself."
Dravin 21 years old
(Raising a brow, smirking)
"That’s because it’s true."
Marion young
(Grinning)
"Draven, do I detect jealousy? Should we be worried about a brawl breaking out?"

(Leaning back, unfazed)
"No. Because if he so much as looks at Lyra the wrong way, there won’t be a brawl. Just a body."

(Blushing, heart skipping a beat at his possessive tone)
"Draven, stop it!"
(The Present – Lyra’s 19th Birthday, Early Morning – The Royal Garden)
Lyra
(Walking barefoot across the dew-covered grass, inhaling the scent of roses)
"Another year older… another step closer to leaving this place."
King Draven
(Watching her from the balcony, unreadable expression)
"You won’t leave."
Lyra
(Turning, startled)
"Draven. What are you—?"
King Draven
(Jumping down effortlessly, stepping towards her)
"You’re thinking about the engagement announcement, aren’t you?"
Lyra
(Looking away, forcing a smile)
"Why wouldn’t I? That’s what I was raised for—to marry for alliance, to serve the kingdom."
King Draven
(Jaw clenching, golden eyes darkening)
"That’s not what you were raised for."
Lyra
(Softly, avoiding his gaze)
"Then what was I raised for?"
King Draven
(Not answering, just staring at her as if he’s holding something back)
"…Forget it."
Prince Marion Steele
(Appearing from behind the hedges, smirking)
"Well, if we’re talking about leaving, I think we should celebrate Lyra’s birthday before she runs off to marry some frost prince."
Lyra
(Rolling her eyes, smiling slightly)
"I’m not running anywhere, Marion."
Orin Voss
"Good, because the royal court would be furious if the bride-to-be disappears before her own engagement feast."
King Draven
(Still silent, gaze locked onto Lyra as if weighing something in his mind)
Lyra
(Looking back at him, confused by the unreadable look in his golden eyes)
Prince Marion Steele
(Grinning at Draven)
"Brother, you look like you just lost a war."

(Grinning, raising his goblet)
"To the kingdom’s most reluctant bride-to-be! May she not freeze to death in the Iceborn Empire."
Lyra
(Rolling her eyes, smirking)
"You’re so dramatic, Marion."
Orin Voss
(Chuckling, nudging his goblet toward hers)
"Still, you haven’t said a word about your betrothed, Lyra. Are you excited to meet Prince Kael?"
Lyra
(Shrugging, voice neutral)
"I suppose I should be. It’s what’s expected of me."
King Draven
(Silent, swirling his wine, golden eyes fixated on Lyra but saying nothing.)
Prince Marion Steele
(Leaning toward Orin, whispering with a smirk)

(Calm, eyes sharp, assessing the room)
"I apologize for the delay. Traveling through your lands is… warmer than I’m accustomed to."
Lyra
(Standing, offering a polite smile)
"Welcome, Your Highness. I hope your journey was pleasant."
Prince Kael Veylan
(His gaze settling on Lyra, lingering for a moment before he takes her hand)
"The journey was long, but I see now that it was well worth it."
King Draven
(His grip on his goblet tightens, knuckles whitening.)

(Muttering to Orin)
"Did you see that? He’s ready to set the entire table on fire."

(Calmly sipping his wine)
"And here I was hoping for a peaceful evening."
(Music Starts – A Soft, Haunting Melody Echoes Through the Hall)

(Offering his hand to Lyra)
"Would you grant me a dance?"

(Smirking)
"Let him burn. It’ll make our work easier."
(Kael and Lyra Begin to Dance – Slow, Elegant Movements in Perfect Synchronization)
Prince Kael Veylan
(Low voice, just for Lyra)
"You don’t seem eager for this marriage. Should I be concerned?"
Lyra
(Forcing a soft chuckle)
"I thought political alliances weren’t about eagerness, Your Highness."
Prince Kael Veylan
(Smirking slightly)
"True, but some find their duty more… tolerable than others."
King Draven
(Watching, his golden eyes like molten fire, his fingers curling into a fist.)
Prince Marion Steele
(Leaning toward Orin)
"He’s going to snap. Should we stop him?"
Orin Voss
(Sighing)
"It’s already too late."
(Kael Leans Closer, Whispering Something to Lyra – Her Eyes Widen Slightly, Laughing at His Words)
King Draven
(Voice low, sharp as a blade)
"Enough."
(The Music Stops Abruptly – The Hall Falls Silent as All Eyes Turn Toward Him.)
Lyra
(Startled, stepping back from Kael)
"Draven…?"
Prince Kael Veylan
(Unfazed, arching an eyebrow)
"Something wrong, Your Majesty?"
King Draven
(Standing, his presence alone enough to command the room)
"This engagement was arranged to strengthen alliances, not to entertain foolishness."
Lyra
(Narrowing her eyes, stepping forward)
"Excuse me?"
King Draven
(His gaze cutting to her, unreadable)
"You are not here to be charmed, Lyra."
Prince Kael Veylan
(Smirking slightly)
"I was under the impression that a future queen could decide for herself who she enjoys speaking with."
King Draven
(Stepping closer, voice a dangerous whisper)
"You are under my kingdom’s rule, Prince. I suggest you remember that."
Lyra
(Clenching her fists, voice cold)
"Enough, both of you. This is a celebration, not a battlefield."
Orin Voss
(Stepping forward, trying to ease the tension)
"Perhaps we should move forward with the toast?"
Prince Marion Steele
(Muttering)
"A toast won’t fix this mess."
(The Royal Garden – Moonlight Casting Shadows Across the Marble Pathway)
Lyra
(Storming up to Draven, furious)
"What was that?"
King Draven
(Leaning against a pillar, arms crossed, unbothered)
"I don’t know what you mean."
Lyra
(Voice rising)
"You humiliated me in front of the entire court! And Kael—"
King Draven
(Voice cold, cutting her off)
"You shouldn’t have danced with him."
Lyra
(Glaring, stepping closer)
"Why? Because you said so?"
King Draven
(His jaw clenches, golden eyes unreadable)
"Because it isn’t right."
Lyra
(Laughing bitterly)
"Since when do you care about what’s right?"
King Draven
(Stepping forward suddenly, crowding her space)
"Since it involves you."
Lyra
(Breath catching, unable to move under his gaze)
"I don’t belong to you, Draven."
King Draven
(His hand twitches, as if resisting the urge to touch her)
"Don’t say that."
Lyra
(Staring at him, eyes full of unspoken emotion)
"Why not?"
King Draven
(Silent, breathing hard, before finally whispering)
"Because it isn’t true."
(A Long, Tense Silence – The Night Air Feels Heavy Between Them.)
Prince Marion Steele
(Calling from the castle entrance, breaking the moment)
"Lyra! Prince Kael is looking for you!"
Lyra
(Tearing her gaze away from Draven, turning to leave)
"Then I suppose I shouldn’t keep him waiting."
King Draven
(Watching her walk away, eyes dark, voice barely a whisper)
"No. You shouldn’t."
