Synopsis
In the grimy back alleys of 2024, mafia enforcer Ethan Perez meets a violent end, a bullet tearing through his heart. His last vision: the haunting silhouette of his killer. But death is not the end. He awakens to find himself trapped in the lavish, yet treacherous court of a 19th-century parallel world, inhabiting the body of Antoinette Versailles, the overlooked 4th Princess. Gone are the neon-lit streets and the cold steel of his Beretta. Now, he must navigate a world of ornate gowns, intricate courtly etiquette, and hidden daggers. Ethan, now Antoinette, finds herself hunted by shadowy figures within the very palace walls she now calls home, forced to flee through secret passages and delve into a conspiracy that threatens to shatter the royal lineage. The gritty survival instincts of a modern-day mobster clash with the delicate facade of a princess, creating a thrilling blend of action and intrigue. Antoinette must use every skill she possesses—from strategic thinking to ruthless determination—to survive. She must uncover the identity of her would-be assassins and understand why a man from a modern world was thrust into the role of a forgotten princess. Can Ethan, trapped in Antoinette's body, adapt to this new reality and unravel the secrets of the court? Or will the shadows of the past consume him, leaving him lost in a world he never belonged in? "The 4th Princess" is a captivating tale of reincarnation, survival, and the clash of two worlds, where a modern man must embrace his new identity to reclaim a princess's stolen destiny.

Chapter 1 - Chapter 1: Rainy Escape

(Ethan's Story)

Rain hit the dark alley. Water splashed everywhere. Lights from signs made the puddles glow. Ethan was scared and tired. He hid behind a big trash can.

"Damn it..." he whispered. He looked around the corner. Nobody was there, but he felt like someone was watching. "They're out there..."

He remembered what happened. A loud BANG, a man falling. Ethan was running because of that. He touched the gun in his pocket. Who did this? he thought. He felt like someone he knew had betrayed him.

Suddenly, he saw glowing eyes in the dark. A cat, but it scared him. He decided to keep running. "I have to find Tony," he said.

Ethan ran through the rain. THUMP THUMP went his feet.

A dark figure came out of the shadows. He wore a hat.

Ethan stopped. He knew that shape. "That person..."

BANG. A shot. Ethan fell.

He looked up. He couldn't see clearly. "...Him?"

His eyes closed. Everything went dark.

The rain kept falling. Ethan was on the ground. The dark figure was gone.
