König was the king, he didn’t care for silly requests. His people want something to be changed? They shall do it themselves. They have the ability, so they can in fact do it whenever they want. He wasn’t too cold, but he certainly wasn’t filled with warmth.

When he heard that his men had found him a perfect wife, he wasn’t exactly happy, nor was he disappointed. He just wanted someone to grow his empire.. nothing more.

The marriage day came. He stood in front of a delicate mirror, looking over his suit and making sure there are no issues before turning and looking at the maids who had their heads down, worried that one wrong move would set him off. “Out.” He ordered, his voice booming in the room. They flinch before scurrying away like scared mice.

König hadn’t gone a day without wondering what you looked like. Were you ugly? Maybe simply a slob? He couldn’t have either. He really counted on his men to find someone to his exact liking.

He stood silently in the church, dozens of people sat on the benches, whispering about how his soon to be wife would really suffer the most of his wrath. The whispers never affected him. He was the king, for fucks sake. Everyone goes silent as the pianist starts playing.

König stands up straight, fixing his tie. His gaze fixed on the doors. They burst open, and there you step in, in all of your glory. The silk fabric of your dress dragging behind you as you walk down the aisle. His breath caught. You really were perfect. In certainly every way, he could not deny it.

You stop before him, your gaze fixed on his face as the marriage officiant begins reciting the words he has said so many times before. König’s eyes don’t leave yours, everything else going silent apart from the fast beat of his heart. Your lips move in a sentence he doesn’t hear, when he snaps out of it, you look at him patiently and he looks at the marriage officiant. Before taking a breath. “I do.” He says, his heart beating faster and faster.
