Chapter One: "Is it really true? Is she really cursed?"

Justice.

I looked around the ballroom in disgust, the people here, the way they behaved, it was all a play. They hide their true nature under all the smiles and jokes.

And people actually fall for that.

Through the corner of my eye, I notice my mother chatting with a woman a little bit older then me.

My mother,

A person who could hide her true nature so well, even I forget what she really is.

Her snow- white hair was tied into a perfect bun. She wore a blue gown, which went well with her white hair.

Standing near her was my brother, he looked exactly like my mother. He had the same snow- whit hair and the same ice blue eyes.

But he didn't have the ego as my mother.

He lifted his gaze, noticing my stare towards mother. He carefully made his way through the crowd, straight towards me.

I turned my full attention towards him, as he lowers himself to my height.

"Has any man caught your eye, my beautiful sister?" He whispers into my ear, smirking like a fool.

"I was forced to come here, and no man here is deserving of my attention."

"Always so picky my beloved sister, at least have a drink before you say something like that."

I Quietly walk away from him, ignoring his last comment. I made my way through the crowd, a few glancing in my direction.

As I reach the balcony, I noticed it was empty, not a single soul stood in there. Perfect, I could enjoy the moonlight all by myself, once again.

Normally, I liked being alone, but this time, a part of me was longing for a person I could hug, I could kiss.

"Stop thinking nonsense, Justice." I say to myself.

"Talking to yourself miss..?"

I turn as fast as I could, mostly because I wa shocked, shocked at who had just said that.

I looked at the person, his eyes were a dark blue, while his hair was black. He was smirking, looking straight at me.

"Its rude to ignore a person, especially me." He says in a cocky way.

But what did he mean though, it was rude to ignore someone like him? Did he have a high position in the court?

I hope not.

"Its rude to sneak up on a person." I say, exceptionally happy with my remark.

"You have a point there, may I ask, which house do you belong to?"

From young, I was always taught to answer that question with my full title. Mother said it was always respectable to do so.

"Lady Justice, second born to the house of Enworth." I reply coldly. "I would love to continue talking, but I have somewhere to be." I continue, as I quickly walk away from the stranger.

The last thing I needed was someone calling me a cursed child once again.

If only they knew the whole truth. The truth behind my curse......
