    Summary

    “What are we?” he asked one night, a lock of her hair twirling around his fingers.

    She exhaled a breath of laughter. “Enemies with benefits, my prince. For we are not friends.”

    They started out as enemies. They should have stayed that way.

    --

    A gala for the military is thrown by the king. The scouts are in their best clothes, surrounded by finery far beyond what they’re used to, allowing themselves to be swept up in the revelry of high society for one night. And for Levi, being with the girl who causes him the sweetest pain and cruelest pleasure. The girl who never stays longer than a night, always leaving before the morning light hits, no matter how badly he wants her to stay. The girl who moves as a ghost, disappearing and reappearing at random, leaving him with nothing more than the hope he would one day see her again.

    His cinderella.

    Maybe this time, under the influence of the glitz and glamour, he could hope to change the ending of this cursed fairytale he found himself trapped in. Maybe this time, she’ll stay.
