Paris 1920
I have to write my story. I have kept it inside for so long, because reminiscing those memories were too painful. But I can't go on like this. I have to go forward and for that I have to let go of the past.
December 24 1899 Paris
Sakura D'Orléan was always the center of attention wherever she was. People were simply captivated by her. They admired her hair that was the same color as a cherry blossom, her delicate little nose, that plump perfectly shaped mouth, her porcelain skin, her mesmerizing emerald eyes and her tall but delicately built stature. She was almost always the most beautiful girl in the room, and when she wasn't, she still was the most popular woman. There was never any competition against her legendary charm. Though it was too bad she was already married.
The 19 year old Sakura had two children of three and four respectively and a forty year old husband. Not that they were still close anyway. The Duke Nathaniel D'Orléan and the Duchess each had their own affairs. They never even hid it from each other anymore. Actually they had an agreement; each could see whoever they wanted as long as nobody else found out. They couldn't risk tainting their reputation with a scandal.
Perhaps because she was too young and bored with her older cold husband, Sakura had fallen in love with many men. She had been hoping to alleviate her loneliness, yet all these love affairs always ended disastrously for some reason or another.
The parties of Madame De Fontane were always filled with only people of the highest society and the latest artist, whether it was a painter, an author or a musician. Sakura spotted a tall, dark haired man at the other side of the room. She was curious about that man whom she had never seen before. She asked one of the guests, Ino Yamanaka, about him. She learned that his name was Lord Sasuke Uchiha and that he was the most prestigious banker of London. Sakura wouldn't be able to get him out of her mind for the rest of the night.
Sasuke Uchiha stood there unaffected by the party guest's frequent glances in his direction. He was used to the high society snobs, and in general, he avoided parties. But in this case it was his best friend Naruto Uzumaki who forced him to come so that he could meet his Parisian friends. Well he had met them and they were all very boring. While he was forced into a conversation with Madame De Fontane's daughter, Naruto disappeared with a pretty redhead. He finally got rid of the annoying girl and was left with nothing to do.
Suddenly, his attention was focused on a beautiful, tall, pink haired young woman. From the moment he caught sight of Sakura he knew his life would never be the same.
