Prologue
Anna fell silent, a lump of unshed emotions tightening in her throat.
I don't want the white dress anymore... she thought, nervously twisting the silk fabric between her trembling fingers. With every passing second, the urge to tear the innocent gown to shreds grew inside her - anything to avoid wearing it today. Anything to stop this wedding from happening.
As if on cue, her memory conjured the moment she first learned about Esferian traditions. The traditions that dictated no woman here married in white. She remembered how upset she’d been then. Like most of her friends, Anna had always pictured herself as a bride in pure white.
And now, it lay before her. But instead of a joyful thrill, it stirred a sickening revulsion. The dream had become her prison. It was choking her, squeezing her chest, a cold reminder that she had no choice left.
"Anna," the Esferian woman called softly, her hand a gentle weight on her shoulder. "I'm sorry. We really need to get you ready."
