Once upon a time there was a princess who lived with her prince in their castle. They had been married for 10 years and were quite happy...or so the princess thought.
One day, her prince shared that he wasn't sure he wanted to be married to his princess anymore. He wasn't as happy as he had pretended to be. The princess had begun to bore him and he wanted to see what else life had in store for him.
The princess was heartbroken. "What have I done wrong?" she asked over and over again. But the prince did not have an answer for her. He just kept replying that he was not happy. This went on for several weeks. The princess asking what she had done wrong and the prince not being to answer her pleading questions.
One night, a wintry storm blew in. It snowed and snowed and snowed. In the morning the ground was covered in the most beautiful white blanket. It glittered in the sun. So the princess went for a walk. She had to enjoy this beautiful and rare snow. Her prince would not go with her She was to go alone and experience the beauty by herself.
When she arrived back at the castle, her prince had gotten dressed and ready to go do his princely duties. "In this weather?" the princess cried. "The roads are not quite dry. You could get hurt traveling so far." The prince replied, "I can not get my duties done here with you around so I must go."
"Before you do, please share with me the photos of your surgery. Mother wants to see them." So the prince put in his secret code (which the princess used to know-there were no secrets between them before) to share his photos. The princess looked over his shoulder and memorized the code. When she knew he had left, she found his other device and used the code to get into it. There she found messages about another woman for whom her prince was falling for.
It suddenly all made sense. No wonder her prince would not answer her pleas. He as in love with another. She was devastated How could this happen? She was a good wife! She did whatever her prince wanted. She cooked, she cleaned, she wasn't a nagger. She adored her prince and never would even think of laying eyes on another man. And this is how he repays her? She became outraged! She threw everything off the bar and made dents in the walls. She broke trinkets and a plate that was dear to the prince. She threw their engagement photo to the ground and smashed it. She called her prince and screamed at him. He had nothing to say to her. She hung up.
She called her fairy and asked for help. He was her very best friend. All he could say was that he was sorry. She left the castle. Stormed out and went to a wise woman's house who was an old and dear friend. There her friend consoled her and told her she had every right to be mad. She said she could stay with her until things got better. What was the princess to do?
