Chapter 1 - Bookworm
"Butterflies For My Princess".
An average looking book title to the eye of a reader. However, it was its contents that took the world by storm.
Written by a writer known under the pseudonym "Misty Plume", this novel became a world-hit sensation.
It tells the story of a young princess who falls in love fives times with the exact same man.
Although the premise seems complicated, I actually really loved it once I began reading.
The same man continuously disguises himself, inserting himself into her life before disappearing once she got close to the truth.
The heightened emotions are well written by the author, and the issues that the individual characters have are portrayed in a very outstanding way.
At first, I wasn't convinced that a book like this could live up to the hype. However, I soon ate my own words once I began to read it.
I suddenly heard the gasp and I turned my head around to meet the eyes of my shocked maid.
Vanessa Swan
Mina? What are you still doing up?
Mina
My Lady, the sun has already risen!
Now it was my turn to gasp. I got up from my chair and rushed towards the curtains, pulling them back.
Sure enough, the whole world had woken up while I was yet to go to sleep.
My fingers clasped around my book on Alterrian history, a fascinating read that had somehow allowed me to jump forward in time!
I'm joking, of course. It seems to me that I got so absorbed in my literature that I forgot to sleep.
Mina sighed as she began setting out my clothes for the day.
Mina
The Marquis is returning home today. He'll be here by noon.
Mina
Until then, please get some rest, My Lady!
She's right, I need some rest before I see my father. I'd hate for him to think that I'm ill.
I set my book down and rushed towards my bed, curling up in a ball before closing my eyes.
Mina smiled at me before leaving my room, allowing me time to rest.
This reminded me of my past life...
I used to save the pennies of my salary to afford a book every once in a while.
That very night, I'd end up staying awake until the morning reading it until I finished.
By that time, my alarm for work went off, and I forced myself out of bed to head over and work.
All I remember was falling to sleep on the train, a finished copy of "Butterflies For My Princess" slipped into my work bag.
Then, I woke up in the body of Vanessa Swan, a nameless extra in the novel.
It didn't take me long to realize where I was when Alterria was one of the first words someone uttered to me.
The beautiful fairy-tale land of magic and love.
And now, it was my home as well.
