Cinderella believed slipping her delicate foot into the crystal slipper was the beginning of fairy-tale romance. In her first life, her stepsister severed toes and married the prince, only to die mysteriously; in her second, another sister died; in her third, Cinderella fit the slipper and was immediately executed.
As her blood pools, Cinderella realizes the horror: the prince is an imposter demon hunting whoever saw him butcher the true heir at midnight. Awakening in her hearth for a fourth life, Cinderella hides the slipper and plots to bring down the royal monster on the throne.
