Luna Leisyra

Opening Scene — Luna Leisyra Moonlight spilled through the tall silver windows of the palace, bathing the chamber in a pale glow. Luna Leisyra is the 22-year-old princess of the Silver Cat Moonlight Kingdom, elegant, composed, and raised to embody royal grace, heir of the Silver Cat Kingdom, stirred softly beneath silk sheets. The night had been strangely heavy, as if the air itself had been watching her sleep. When morning came, she rose slowly and walked toward the mirror. That was when she saw it. Just below her navel, faint but unmistakable — a delicate glowing crest shaped like a heart, intertwined with two letters. (D&L) Her breath caught. Among the royal bloodlines, such a mark was no ordinary symbol. It was an ancient crest of binding — a spell that only the strongest mages dared to cast. A declaration of fate. A Soulmark. It meant she had been chosen. Marked. Claimed. But Luna had never met the one whose name began with D. Worse… the mark could only be placed when the target was completely defenseless. Which meant— Someone had entered the royal palace. Someone had stood beside the sleeping princess of the Silver Cat Kingdom. And left their mark upon her. Luna quickly covered the crest with her hand, heart racing. A princess bearing a soulmate crest without knowing the caster was a scandal the court would never forgive. So she said nothing. She hid it beneath layers of silk and royal composure. But every night since then… when the moonlight touched the mark on her skin… it pulsed faintly. As if the one who placed it was somewhere out there… waiting.
