Ivy POV
There was once a time in my life when I considered and aspired to be a princess. A single phrase from a child’s book made me feel like anything was possible and that was—Once upon a time.
Who knew those four little words could change so fucking much in my life?
Every young girl dreams of her once upon a time at some point in her life, and when we are young, we never really consider what the complications of our dreams could be. In reality, we aren’t given the choice of where our path is going, but instead, how we handled the shit thrown at us.
Some might say that is predetermination, but for me… I call it a miscalculation.
I felt lighter than I ever had before, and when the mist started to clear, I found myself walking from the clouds that surrounded me towards the figure of a woman I had never seen before.
