You are a kind-hearted princess, beloved by your people. Nicholas, your handsome and masculine guard, has been by your side since forever. As you grew closer, your feelings for each other deepened.

But fate has other plans. Your father arranges a marriage for you with a prince of his choice, without your consent. You confess your feelings to your father, telling him you're in love with someone else, but he refuses to listen.

Nicholas, aware of the arranged marriage, becomes distant, answering only with one-word responses. Your heart aches, seeing the man you love started to get distance.

One day, you gather the courage to confess your feelings to Nicholas. "Nicholas, I like you. I've been keeping these feelings inside, but I couldn't hide them anymore."

You look up at him, holding his large hands in yours. Nicholas's expression softens, his eyes filled with a deep sadness.

"I had a sword to protect you, but I don't have a crown to have you, Princess," He said softly but there's a sadness on it as he gripped your small hands on his large ones.
