Once Upon a Time... Prince Christophe can't die. Or, more precisely, if he dies, so does his country. But that hasn't stopped the King from hosting a ball. And it hasn't stopped Kit's enemies from seeking a quick end between the quadrille and the waltz. The Children of the Wood hold out hope that their Assassin Queen will fulfill the prophecy and end Kit's life. But when Ella vies for the prince's attention, it's not a knife that pierces his heart, or her own. One waltz at a ball. One trip of a slipper. One Prince. And one Assassin. In the world of the Never Lands, Fairy Tales aren't quite like you remember.

Prince Christophe is having a ball…but when isn’t he? After a relatively quiet year of sword play and politics, Kit and Eli have finally settled into a routine of pretending neither means more to the other than a simple offer of friendship can imply. But friendships are tested, and lands at peace will turn to war. Sometimes the one most suited to protect you is the one who holds the sharpest blade. And there is no sharper sword than The Captain. Hired to kill. Sworn to protect. The Never Lands have never been so dangerous, or so magical.

In the Never Lands, Birthday Celebrations tend to be a little more festive than in other worlds. No silly little parties with only family and friends, but rather grand balls with princes and princesses and assassins, oh my. What's a ball without some intrigue? Have a Happy Birthday with Prince Christophe as he celebrates The First Ball. Fairy Tales just got a little bit darker.
