Chapter 1 1
At a time when marriages were arranged by families, Cecília tried to get rid of all the suitors arranged by her parents, her sister Madeleine, in turn, grew up being prepared to become the wife of her cousin Prince Emanuel, families had this agreement since they were children. Cecília, had already been offered to two suitors, but as soon as they met her, they gave up at the same time.
Ceci, as she was known, was a woman ahead of her time, that's why she was considered crazy, she liked things different from the traditional ones, predetermined for women of her time, Ceci liked to paint, create poetry, run through the countryside, riding and none of that was allowed for his time. Madeleine, in turn, was silent, she was the perfect woman, prepared for marriage as far back as anyone could remember, her mother always defined who was her favorite. Cecília's family was of medium size, they didn't have many possessions, so Madeleine's marriage to her cousin was quite a deal, it would greatly favor the family's conditions and their possessions. Prince Emanuel would complete his 21 years and to assume the throne he would have to marry, that was not his wish, but he did not have many choices, either he would marry or lose the throne, in his constant fights with his mothers he made it very clear that marriage was not his desire, but he would do it for the family.
Sophia, the matriarch of the imperial family, had always imposed her decisions and choices and everyone had to accept it and with Emanuel it was no different, she will force him to marry a woman she had chosen for him, her cousin Madeleine. Cecilia, where are you, your new suitor is on his way and you haven't even had a shower yet, you have to comb your hair, I've already sorted out a dress, where are you girl? her mother screams throughout the house and Cecília does not appear, she hid in the backyard, this is the third suitor she has sent this month alone, her mother no longer knows what to do with her, and does not understand what world Ceci is in live. While her sister Madeleine, in turn, is being groomed to marry Prince Emanuel, her distant cousin, their families struck a deal and agreed that the marriage would be great for both families. The trip to the kingdom is near where the bride and groom will meet and soon get married, uniting the families, Madeleine knows all the responsibilities that it is to marry a prince and all the obligations that she will carry, in fact being a trophy wife, just so that the prince can assume the throne and calm his people who are a bit euphoric with the approach of a war.
Cecília, on the other hand, loves her freedom, loves to write her poems and be totally original, she doesn't accept the rules willingly, as long as she can she will run away from her suitors. And finally the big day of the trip arrived, even though it wasn't necessary Madeleine insisted on Cecília's presence, who, despite being dissatisfied, accompanied her mother and sister on this trip and promised to behave at the height of the occasion, even though she found it all boring and unnecessary, she didn't understand how her sister accepted all this, as if it were wonderful, besides the title what else was good about being a decoration wife, where the husband would only look for her from time to time or when necessary. She went all the way writing her poems that she loved so much and each new landscape a new drawing, she lost herself in this world and her sister admired her courage in putting out everything she felt and liked, she didn't have such courage as Cecília, that everything was too much for Madeleine and for her mother it was called madness, how could a woman want to live in a world where she wasn't married, at a time when not being married was living on the margins of society. After a few days of travel, they finally arrived in the kingdom, where they would meet the future groom and the queen, Emanuel's mother, the matriarch of the family, the severe Sophia and Emanuel's brother, Maximus and the other brother who is still a child.
