The Secret Of Our Love

Pearl was betrothed to marry her best friend when he turned 18.

The only problem? Her and Scott both did not want to marry each other.

The two of them were content with their friendship, not wanting to be more, to mean more.

Pearl has thought about having to spend her future life with Scott, about seeing him everyday, waking up next to him every morning, kissing him. It all feels wrong, like that's not what she wants.

She loved Scott, but not in that way. She loved him like a best friend.

The princess never really felt that find of love, the one they held two people together until death.

That was until Gem.

or, Pearl, a princess who was betrothed to her best friend Scott, falls in love with her handmaiden in a kingdom where it same-sex love is forbidden.
