EMPEROR’S NEW CLOTHES

“Tell me every terrible thing you ever did,
and let me love you anyway.”

– Sade Andria Zabala

~

A GUT-WRENCHING STORY about the five stages of grief, second chances, love, and redemption—foretold from the eyes of a sinner. Will he plummet down to a path of never accepting himself, or will he rise again and face a past long buried and forgotten?Becoming a tyrant and taking over the country? Check. Overthrowing your abusive parents and taking over the throne at age 12? Check. Destined to become a prince of Hell for all eternity? Check. Finally figuring out your wrongs and wanting to make up for it? Check. Lonely and hated by your own people for what you’ve done three years ago? Check. Thinking no one would ever love you? Check. This is an everyday routine of thoughts for ex-tyrant King Lorenzo Windsor VIII, that is until he met her, and things started to change. For the better? Eh, maybe. For the worse? Definitely. Will he ever forgive himself? Hope so. And perhaps, he would reconsider that the world isn’t as bad as he initially thinks it is.
