—Señora Sterling, ¿está segura de que quiere terminar con este matrimonio de veinte años y renunciar a la custodia? —Sí. Inicie el trámite. Ya tuve suficiente —respondí con calma por teléfono mientras tallaba una mancha de grasa difícil en la isla de granito. Durante veinte años, me entregué a esta familia. Me hice cargo de las casas, de la educación de los niños y me mantuve al lado de mi esposo, apoyando su ascenso en el sindicato sin quejarme nunca. Pero mi esposo, Alexander, llevó a Chloe, su joven hermana adoptiva, a la entrevista y dijo: —Todo mi éxito se lo debo a mi hermana. Incluso mis propios hijos me menospreciaban; decían que yo era una simple ama de casa, alguien corriente. Se habían aliado con su eterna “tía”, esa mujer que parecía creerse la verdadera señora de la casa. Firmé los papeles del divorcio y me fui, dejándolos para que se convirtieran en la “familia perfecta” que tanto querían. Pero fue entonces cuando todos entraron en pánico…

Merida was a certified black sheep of the family. She loves to hear her grandmother's story about fairies, dragons, pirates and princesses and her favorite was the tale about the legendary pirate named Escarial, and a Princess called Athalia. Listening to her grandma’s folktales was her routine all throughout her eighteen years of existence. That’s why when her grandmother died without having at least a last talk with her, she turned badly depressed. She didn’t go to school at all, and just stayed in her grandmother’s room to lock herself away from the rest of the world. Three days after her grandmother’s funeral, strange things happened in her room. The painting her old woman often gazed on suddenly moved and glowed. She succumbed to it, helpless, and had nothing to do to save herself because of the force that was beyond overwhelming. The next thing she knew, she was in North Sonnenfield. What’s more shocking to her was the name she’s called as by her servants; Princess Athalia—the heir of the throne, and the only daughter of King Eldar of North Sonnenfield. She was in awe, because she remembered that King Eldar was the character in the story. The palace where she found herself lost was the same place where the brave princess who ventured the dangerous sea had lived. She loves being in a Sonnenfield. However, she knew to herself that the day will come when she would wake up from a dream. But life always has a twist because Captain Escarial came to the scene. She expects that he will be gentleman just like pirate captain in the book. But to her horror, this Captain Escarial is snobbish, rude and proud. Oh, how she hates him!
