In a near-future society, where the HarmonyMatch app governs the bonds of matrimony, the path to love is algorithmically determined. For the young and hopeful, turning 25 means eagerly awaiting the app's verdict, believing it will guide them to their soulmate. But for our heroine, fate takes an unforeseen twist. As the day of her app-mandated match arrives, the digital scales of destiny tip unexpectedly, pairing her not with her ex boyfriend but with a young prince, third in line for the throne. Faced with an irrevocable royal engagement, she enters a world of opulence and duty, leaving her past life behind. Amidst the grandeur of the palace, she encounters a life vastly different from her own and a prince burdened with responsibilities he never sought. But within the gilded halls and amid palace intrigues, they discover hidden passions and dreams that draw them closer. As feelings bloom, they must decide whether to reveal a glitch in the system and risk the kingdom's stability or uphold their duties at the cost of their hearts.

Chapter 1 - Skye and Finn

My phone buzzed on the dashboard for the fifth time, so I stopped kissing Finn. "Ignore it," he murmured against my lips, softly brushing them with his own. "You know I can't. I've ignored it long enough," I half-breathed into his mouth. I smiled, gave him one last quick kiss on the lips, and reached out to reach my phone. I opened it with a swipe and checked the messages from co-worker, best friend, and the only person that calls me Skye, Madison. "Madi has been covering my ass for the last ten minutes. You know how things get at work," I told Finn. "Okay, okay," he said, putting both his hands up in the sky. "I can't help it if I want to keep you by my side all day long." "Of course, you can't," I laughed. I grabbed the little bag that contained my lunch from the back seat and hopped out of the car, waving goodbye to Finn. He waved back, blew me a kiss, and told me he'll see me soon before bringing the car to life and driving off. I sighed contentedly and smiled. I have a go...

Chapter 2 - The Countdown Begins
I was minding my own business and was burying myself in an old book found at the bookstore when my phone chimed. With a notification.

Chapter 3 - Man in the Planetarium
The dinner was uneventful, and I meant that in the worst way possible. Finn and I just had small talk, and when the food came, we just ate in silence. He did ask why I practically just got dessert, but didn't make any comments, so neither did I. We're now driving home, and while we agreed to not go to the planetarium to use the telescope for stargazing, I kind of expected us to do what we usually did: walk around and talk it out. I don't even know if we're fighting because we never really fought before except for some petty arguments over trivial matters that we easily resolved. "Can you park a couple of blocks from my house?" I asked him. "Why?" He asked back. "We really need to talk. This–" I vigorously pointed to the two of us, "–is bothering me so much. Please tell me what's happening." He was silent for a moment, eyes on the road. When he saw an opportunity, he pulled over, killed the engine, and sighed heavily. "I just…" he started. "The Matching," he said, as if it was an

Chapter 4 - The Matching
"Good God, you look awful sis," Ren scrunched her face as I plopped down on her vanity chair. She volunteered to do my makeup and hair today. I asked her why, and she said I had to at least give my future husband a good impression. I can't argue about that, and so I let her do her magic. I feel even more awful than I probably look, but at least everything will end today. The Matching is in a couple of hours. I just let Ren do whatever she wanted and even let her pick what I should wear. She curled my dark brown hair to give it some volume and settled with a half updo. For my makeup, she went as light as possible but added a little shimmer of gold in my eyelids for some color. For the dress, she picked a classic black sleeved dress and gave me a pair of heeled Mary Janes. I said it was a little too much, but she just brushed it off and told me to get dressed, so I did. I felt a little too dolled up, but I can't help but feel better when I looked in the mirror. "Oh, honey. You loo

Chapter 5 - Her Royal Highness
I was running. It wasn't the same 'run to your lover and jump into their arms' run like I see some do. I was literally running like a madman, trying to get to the closest Harmony employee who was about to leave the stadium."Excuse me! Excuse me!" I was yelling frantically, trying to get the employee's attention before she got to a door.I dashed and willed myself to run as fast as I could in my heels. I barely got to her."Excuse me!" I huffed. "I'm sorry to bother you," I managed to say in between breaths. The employee looked genuinely concerned."Honey, are you okay?" She asked, her brows furrowed. I was still panting so bad, I actually held a hand up, asking for a minute. And then something changed in her face, like she knew what I was about to say to her–which she probably actually didn't."Oh, you got Unmatched, huh? No worries, honey. It does happen. Maybe next year?" She smiled condescendingly. This might have happened quite a lot to her. Men and women running to ask why they w

Chapter 6 - The Prince Sends a Message
"What the hell is happening, Viv?" Ren asked while navigating the road. Her voice was shaking."I Matched with the prince," I said, flatly. Exhausted all of the sudden. Saying the words made the whole thing true, and it sounded so weird…but pleasant at the same time."What?!" She practically yelled. "So, what those hounds were saying was actually true? I thought they were just mistaken.""They got to you so fast. How did they do that?" I asked myself, wondering how the hell all those reporters got there so fast.My phone rang and I flinched, surprised. Mom is calling. Shit. If they got to my sister fast, they're probably in my house right now.I answered quickly."Mom? Hello?""Vivienne! There are people outside looking for you! They said they were reporters. They're saying weird things–" she was rambling on the phone, and I can hear dad in the background telling Millie to stay away from the windows."Mom, mom! Listen to me. Don't ever open the door. We're coming through the backdoor,"

Chapter 7 - The Prince's Power
"Sis?" I heard Ren calling me, then felt her shaking me, and opened my hers to her sitting on my bed.After the warm bath and the adrenaline of the morning finally fading out of my system, I fell asleep. And now, waking up, my body is aching so bad, especially my feet, which I inspected earlier and saw blisters and some minor burns and scratches."Sorry, to wake you. Mom said dinner is ready. You barely ate anything all day," Ren softly said.For a while, I forgot about the chaos of my Matching Day, but everything had been so messy since I got home this morning that the silence seemed so new."Hey," I touched Ren's arms as she got up. "The reporters?" I asked."Oh. Thankfully they all went away. The cops were here as soon as mom called them, and it turns out your future husband has already ordered some authorities to fix the whole mess," she said, smiling as if amazed by everything. Then, she simply walked away.Future husband. The prince. I may never get used to the idea.I opened my

Chapter 8 - Goodbyes
"Skye!" Madi ran towards me and gave me a hug. I hugged her tightly back. "I was trying to get to your house but there were tons of cops and some mean-looking guards, and I couldn't!" She cried in my neck as I rubbed her back."I know, I'm sorry," I apologized.By the time Madi saw the news, we were basically on lockdown. There also were so many people trying to message and call me that I had to uninstall every app on my phone except for HarmonyMatch in case the prince sends a message. I also had to block calls from coming in, according to the royal guards.But today is my last day here in unassuming Blackwood, and I had to meet Madison because it may be the last time I see her in years. The royal guards were reluctant, but I told them they can all come with me and leave the cops to patrol my neighborhood, and so they did, and they have been shadowing my every move."I'm really sorry, Madi. I can't even use my phone to call you yesterday," I said again as we faced each other."Apologie

Chapter 9 - The Departure
I've been trying to stop the tears, but they kept flowing down my cheeks, and I tried to discreetly wipe them away, but I know Kida and Sebastian–two of the royal guards the prince has sent over–know I haven't stopped crying in the back seat of this luxurious BMW.Thankfully, they did not say anything and just left me sniffling away.I wanted to stop crying because I already feel my eyes puffing, and I'm on my way to the airport and finally to the palace.My family, Madi, and several other close friends I have over the years went over to say goodbye. Even my whole neighborhood gathered together and even gave me beautiful flowers from their own backyards.Millie and Dad were a mess and it took every strength and will to not join them in their tears. I wanted them to remember me smiling.Mom and Ren, who barely cried, even had tears in their eyes. Still, I tried to hold everything in even if the lump in my throat feels like I have swallowed a giant candy whole.Madi also tried to hold it

Chapter 10 - The Prince of Arcadia
"Oh shit," I mumbled out of surprise. His perfume smelled familiar, and it took me a while to realize it was the same perfume the man in the planetarium had. Could they be the same person, then? I shook my head. It's nothing but a coincidence. What would a prince do in the middle of practically nowhere to watch a planetarium show when he can, I assume, just barge into the National Space Institute and check out real stars and planets?For sure, they just had the same perfume, right? And I could be smelling it wrong.While a million thoughts ran in my head, the prince slowly turned around."Ah, miss Vivienne! I didn't hear you coming," he looked at me and smiled, a dimple showing on his right cheeks, his voice bright and warm, a stark contrast to the chilly air.I had to mentally tell myself to keep it together and not gape at him.The entire palace ground is exquisite, but the prince is by far the most beautiful creature I have seen.I bowed deep, just like how Harod and the other staf
