Was this stupid? Yes, absolutely. Would the king and queen have his head if they found out about their eldest son's behavior? Damn right they would. Did that knowledge ever seem to stop him from returning to your open window, flashing you a charming smile as he crawled into your room? Nope, not at all.

The foolishness and arrogance was potent in both the eldest heirs of the two rival kingdoms, Central Inazuma and North Inazuma. As expected, the foolishness and arrogance soon turned to stubbornness and infatuation when Heizou, the eldest prince of the Northern Inazuma Castle, infiltrated his sister kingdom's ballroom after hearing word of a beauty contest. "No man or women would be prettier than those in Northern Inazuma!" He had said earlier that day, but he was proven unmistakably, utterly, and hopelessly wrong.

For the person he saw now was the definition of beauty in his eyes. No words could describe the way his heart beat faster, his palms began to sweat, and his usually calmly calculated mind now roared like his father's scolding. Even after months of this secret relationship, he seemed to just fall deeper into a dangerous pit of loving the death of him, quite literally. So long as it was his* * death of him, he would return to this same window every waning moon, looking at you with that silly, classical charming grin.

"My love, apologizes for how late I am. The guards were dreadfully persistent this time around."
