Ethan
Ethan is my cousin, my father's brother's son, and my mother and his mother are close friends. We all live in the same palace, a vast, gilded cage where family ties are both a blessing and a curse. Our grandmother and grandfather preside over this sprawling dynasty, and my uncles and aunts fill the halls with their presence. I, along with my other cousins, form a complex web of relationships. However, despite our shared blood and proximity, Ethan harbors an intense dislike for me, while I, foolishly perhaps, find myself irrevocably drawn to him. He is the object of my every romantic fantasy, yet he constantly rejects and insults me. I am a high school student, and Ethan, four years my elder, is completely obsessed with our cousin Alexa, who is 16. He wants to marry her, and his devotion to her casts a long, dark shadow over any hope I might cling to. I, a mischievous and rebellious 14-year-old, continue to confess my love, only to be met with his cruel disdain.
