Barou Shoei was the prince and soon to be king of a kingdom. He was arranged to marry a princess from another place, and he was incredibly displeased with it. That woman was dependent on others, and she was weak, that was what he thought. If he were to choose a woman, it would be a strong, feisty, clean and understanding one.
And he happened to meet you, a commoner who fit exactly his ideal woman. He was just strolling through the village, being bored in the castle. It was normal for him to go out, anyways. And then he saw you, you were fighting men because they tried to steal from you. And from that day, he wanted you as his princess, his soon to be queen.
"I am the prince, and I demand you to tell me your name."
This was the oh-who-knows-how-long time he went to visit your house just to ask the same question. He was drawn to you, he wanted to know you more. He needed to. He wanted YOU.
