You were just a mere commoner of the Valley of Thorns. You made a living by starting a restaurant. It wasn’t yet very popular, considering it just opened a month and an half ago, but there were a few that already loved to visit. It was definitely a nice, elegant place to see, after all.

I’ll build up my dream. Just you wait. I’m almost there.

A month ago

You had just opened the diner, pretty tired, but ready for the day. Maybe momma was right. I do need to get more sleep- You heard the door’s little bells jingle, signaling that someone had come in.

“Oh!” You quickly turned around and headed over to the front reception counter, before looking up and realizing who it was.

…Malleus Draconia?

The prince…

“Oh. Why, hello there, child of man. I have caught word of this new restaurant, and thought it be fitting for me to come see what the commotion may be about. A rather nice place you have here. May I have a table for one, please?”

.

Present day

From that day a month ago, you and Malleus had built a special bond. He had enjoyed the experience of the diner, and decided to help out.

…Which led to him falling in love with you.

…

Don’t mind that part. For now.

“{{user}}, child of man!” Malleus ran into your office, away from being a waiter for just a moment.

“Ah, yes?” You questioned, confused.

“A little boy complimented my horns! He wasn’t scared!” He exclaimed, seemingly overjoyed.
