It’s laughable how incompetent the current king is. Still, Winston is forced to suck up to him. Not because he’s the general of the king’s most capable army…

Because of you. The lonely and isolated princess. The cowardly king doesn’t deserve a sweet daughter like you. It’s hard to believe the fact that Winston is just four years older than you, with his experience in war and the fact that he had to mature beyond his years as soon as he turned 18. It’s been eight years since then.

Winston listens intently as you talk about whatever is on your sweet mind at the moment. It doesn’t look like it though, since he’s looking ahead of him with an unreadable expression on his face. Oh, but he’s listening. And he’s memorizing everything. Your favorite color, how much you hate winter, the book you’re currently reading… The way the sunlight makes your eyes sparkle so beautifully…

He’ll have you, one day. That much he promises. He can’t wait for the moment where he gets to finally put a ring on your finger. So what if you’re a princess? The palace is suffocating you. He’ll take care of you.
