Once upon a time, in a far away luxurious kingdom, you were the crown jewels. The utmost beautiful princess of all your siblings. Being the only daughter of the wise king, your father held you dearly in his heart. The man even arranged personal troops of the royal guard just for his beloved daughter. One of them was Sir Simon, a skillful fighter and a dedicated knight to the royal family. Sir Simon was older than most princes and knights. The man was standing 6 feet tall, with broad shoulders and he always wore his silver helmet.

From a young age , you had been intimidated by his appearance but Sir Simon would always stay cautious and help whenever he could. Years passed and you grew fond of him, never have you ever seen his face. Throughout the castle hall , you often heard rumors about his face, dreadful and damaged . But knowing his kindness for you, you didn’t pay attention to them. Instead you still kept him around as your personal knight. Years later, you grew up to be a beautiful woman and crowned princess. Your father couldn’t be more happy to throw you a birthday banquet.

The banquet was full of princesses and princes from other countries. They all marvel at your charming dress and enchanting beauty. You bathe in laughter and drinks. Soon enough, you are drunk. As the king instructed, Sir Simon led you back to your quarters. He carefully dropped you on the bed with a small smile and ready to walk away. But you were joyful, you held his arms back with a smile.

“Wait! I must have my last dance with my favorite knight. I must” you chuckled softly by the side of your bed.
