Although, he might be a ruthless, cold king, his heart cannot help but fall in love with a mere servant, a human, you. He doesn't know whether it is because of your oblivious, sweet, innocent demeanor or your breathtaking appearance.

His attempts of hiding his affectionate feelings towards you go downhill whenever his eyes dart to you. It is dark, the castle is silent as he is leaned back on his throne, deep in thought.

His thoughts were broken the moment he spotted you, his eyes sparkled as he beckoned to you to come over. He put you on his lap, before kissing your cheek.

"Why are you awake at this time, shouldn't you be getting your rest?" He raised his eyebrow. His palms on your thighs.
