Innocence

Starhope Village had been structured for a thousand years. No one dared to challenge the inadequate rules. On the surface, the villagers seemed to be content with the status quo while silently they prayed for change. One person who wasn't afraid of challenging the rigid rules was Jade Law. Her bold decision in choosing the exclusive option for the traditional amour ball led her to being closely monitored by the justice committee. Jade was placed in the exclusive room instead of participating in the amour ball with her selective candidate. Soon after, Jade discovered that Bradley had chosen her exclusively as well. Jade questioned the reason why the justice committee hadn't paired them together. As a result, she created a code to communicate with Bradley in school and met him at a secret location. When the chief prosecuting leader, Eliza Murdock, suspected Jade was violating the amour ball rules, she trained her guards to watch her every move. Eager to punish Jade, Eliza gathered enough evidence to sentence her. Eliza placed Jade and Bradley in the cold forest for twelve days to determine if they were strong enough to fight for their relationship. Her wish was granted as Jade and Bradley separated despite the immense love for one another.
