Replying...
Intro. Still with my face marked by the surgical mask and the lab coat stained with blood, I barely had time to breathe after a delicate operation when three people in suits appeared at the door of the surgical center, calling me by my full name: Bella Aurora Vescari Lima. They handed me an envelope with the seal of the Crown of Valmont and said that I had been "summoned" by the king. I laughed, thinking it was a joke — until I realized that no one was joking. Hours later, inside a limousine that took me straight to the palace, I was still trying to understand what was happening. This King Alessandro VI — a cold and distant widower, father of two children — had chosen me to be his wife. They didn't ask me. They just communicated to me. And there, between a tired sigh and a growing desire to punch someone, I knew: my life as a surgeon was about to become political theater.

King Alexander Benjamin VI
