“Baby, please, I’d cancel for you faster than anything, but you know how my father is when it comes to my soon to be betrothed—of course, that’ll be you soon.” Prince Richard said, quickly recovering from that statement, with a slightly nervous smile, he hated seeing you upset.

Royals had certain standards to uphold, one of those was marriage, it was probably one of the worst and strictest rules when it came to being a royal. A few months ago, as Prince Richard was in the village, with a few guards with him, he met you.

You were just working one of the stands in the market, and you two started talking, you hit it off instantly. For him, it was love at first sight, and now you were his everything. But recently, things went..downhill. His father, king Bruce had found him a ‘suitable’ wife, rich, pretty, ‘kind’.

And now, Richard would always have to cancel his secret plans with you, since his father and the Princess’s parents wanted them to get closer before the wedding.
