The rallies began to feel less like politics and more like rituals. Crowds swarmed arenas draped in flags, chanting in unison while Stump basked in the adoration. He no longer pretended to be a politician bound by law; he spoke as though the country were his inheritance.

But now, those dreams felt distant, almost impossible. The kiss from Prince Charming had been magical, yes, but it had led to something neither of them had anticipated: a child.
