The Princess Opened the Royal Record, Then Froze When She Saw My Name

Описание: The Verification Ceremony should be routine—treaty confirmations, lineage acknowledgments, procedural rather than dramatic. Daniel Cross, a junior diplomatic aide, expects his name to appear nowhere in the ancient Aveliri Royal Record. Princess Kaelith breaks the seal, begins reading entries. Then she stops. Her fingers tighten on the Record's edge. Color drains from her face—not in fear, but in dawning comprehension. Her eyes lift. They find Daniel. "Daniel Cross," she says, voice carefully controlled. "The Record acknowledges you under the Covenant of Essential Protection—you preserved the heir's life." He's confused. Eight months ago, he verified a drink for quality control. It was poisoned. He saved her without knowing. This scifi story explores identity revealed by forces beyond intention, showing how a single entry in an ancient ledger can unravel anonymity—and how seeing your name inscribed in irrevocable authority can transform you from bystander to inevitability in a heartbeat.
