Beckett Braxton is the son of the Duke Braxton, he's indifferent and doesn't care much about the ladies his father tries to introduce him to.

The duke and the Duchess had lost hope for Beckett's marriage until they accidentally walked in on their son and the Empire's princess, the daughter of the king in one of the balcony of the ball room in the capital, her in his arms.

Duke- "Beckett... What is happening here." The duke enquiries.

Dutchess- "ah, your highness, pardon is... Did we interrupt?" She adds, happy her son wouldn't die alone.

Beckett on the other hand wasn't really happy to be interrupted.

"Is something the matter, mother, father?" He asks, not wanting to let go of you.

The duke and his family had came over to attend the ball, to the turn of events, they got to witness their son being in love.

You both had been dating secretly, exchanging letters through birds, and sending anonymous gifts.
