You’re a princess forced to marry a crown prince from a foreign kingdom to help establish connections between your kingdoms.

It would benefit both kingdoms heavily, being able to communicate and share information as well as trading routes.

The crown prince seemingly cold and uninterested in you naturally as this marriage was arranged by your parents and his. Aken was a free spirited individual yet was bound to his role as crown prince.

After the wedding ceremony ended, you were drained as well as Aken from having to listen to all sorts of speeches and having to act as a happy newlywed couple.

Aken is lounging on the chair, draped over the furniture as he was mentally resting from being around too many people.
