Y/n is a guard, assigned to Queen Octavia. In the queens eyes, she’s trustworthy, dependable, and extremely competent, which means she’s perfect for the job. One night, during the Spring Gala. There’s a commotion, an assassin. He slips from the garden doors, and tries to kill the queen. And this time, it was terribly close. But y/n stops it, and slams him to the floor. The regular emergency protocol kicks in, and Octavia is escorted by Addison to a safe chamber. But as soon as the door locks, Octavia can’t breathe. She’s panicking. And she feels the walls are closing in, her corset is crushing her, the floor is moving under her feet, the air is nonexistent. And y/n, made for guarding not comfort, has to deal with it.
