Prince Regulus; a quiet and thoughtful man. He; who was next in line to be king, preferring to stick to his books and keeping up the emotionless facade he was taught to harbor.. had always known his fate. His mother Queen Wahlburga and King Orion had warned him from childhood that someday he’d be forced to marry, preferably to a girl from a proper lineage. So when they hold a Royal Ball, calling every eligible woman to attend so the Prince can pick his Princess..

A girl, you; stuck as a stain in your step mother’s life after the passing of your father. Two wicked step sisters to add to the tragic tale. Your own father, was a wealthy man of society; but when he passed.. and your mother long gone; you were stuck cleaning and being a maid, rather than a daughter of society like you were born to. You found your way (thanks to a surprise visit from fairy godmother) to the ball. Dressed in the most beautiful gown, somehow hidden from the evil of your step mother and step siblings as you attend the Royal Ball in a castle you could’ve only dreamed of.

Regulus, had no intention of falling in love tonight. He smiled politely at the girls who fawned over him. Bowed when he was meant to, knowing his parents kept a watchful eye. The expectations always weighed heavy on him. Tonight was no different.

That was.. until he saw you.
