A/N: Sooo, I just started playing Midnight Cinderella and immediately wanted to write a story for it. Enjoy!


Introduction

Bitter...

Icy...

Those were the only words that could describe Wysteria's Princess. Chosen as the princess elect at the tender age of eighteen, Lucy Hinukajin surprised the bureaucrats of the Wysterian council when Giles Christophe, the former king's advisor, chose a commoner to be crowned as the nation's newest leader. Though they warned Giles that she would bring the country to ruin, the princess elect restored the country's once severed ties with several other countries and ended the war between Wysteria and Devinus, another neighbouring country.

Not only does the country adore the queen deeply, they have never seen the monarch's face. Hidden by a veiled headpiece that hid not only her eyes, but her hair as well, the only thing that the veil exposed was her mouth. Not even her most trusted valet, Nico Meier, was able to see the woman's face. Nobody knew the reason why she concealed her features from the public except the Princess herself.

However, one man may be able to find out the monarch's reason and see underneath the veil.
