This is the story of King Midas…
Or that’s what we were always told. The Golden King with his palace of riches and me, his golden touched girl.
I’m kept locked away. For my safety, I’m told. No one can get in. Apart from him.
But when political upheaval becomes strife in our kingdom, I am sent with the royal court to be with my King.
And everything I know starts to change. My love for Midas is challenged, my trust is broken. Everything I knew about him was wrong.
We are told it’s his tale but really, it’s mine.
