Synopsis

Chapter 1 - Chapter 1: Prologue

"I am going to kill you Edward!"

"You are going to die Edward"

"Eeeedwaaaaard"

A lot of voice and whispers sounded all around me.

"Leave me alone!"

My eyes are wide open, my insanity is going up. I can't see around me, I can only see darkness. I can't no longer handle this. The voices grew louder, they chanted my name, they kept saying that they will kill me. No, no! I can't handle this any more, leave me alone!

"I am going to kill you!"

"Edward, you are going to die"

"What did I even do to all of you!" I shouted

"Prince Edward, wake up"

A familiar voice, prince? Right, right! Rose!

"Prince Edward"

I suddenly woke up and raised my upper body.

"Your highness, you're awake"

I looked to my right, it is my maid, Rose. Rose was just standing beside my bed with a beautiful smile on her face, I cried loudly and hugged her tightly.

"Rooooossseeee!" I shouted, I cried more

"Your highness, is there something wrong?" She asked

"I just got a bad dream! Help me!" I shouted

"Awwww, there there, cheer up, you're okay now"

Rose soothed me and patted me on the back. I suddenly went calm, she is the one that always calms and soothes me, including her beautiful smile. 

"Hush hush you are okay now. Your father is calling you for breakfast, change some clothes and let's eat"

Rose let go of me and walked out of my bedroom. I changed some clothes and went outside. Rose was waiting for me, she led me to the kitchen and joined my mother and father. The kitchen is busy, full of maids and butlers working, cooking, and cleaning.

I sat down, Rose put my plate of food in front of me. The beautiful smell of aroma filled my nose. It is..... I know and recognize who cooked it. It is Rose.

"Here you go you master, butterflied quail with orange cumin and brown sugar"

I dined in

"Mmmm! So tasty!" I shouted

My father and mother looked at me with a smile while I ate the food. The taste, gave me a lot of memories. It is so tasty that it feels like I am in heaven. I ate it all up, Rose took my plate and washed it. I went to the living room, thinking what to do today.

I looked behind me, I didn't realize Rose followed me. Her face is filled with her big smile.

"What's on your mind master?" She asked

"Can you pat me again?" I asked her

"Sure master"

She sat down on the sofa and patted her lap. I laid down on the sofa and laid my head down on her lap. She started patting head, this felt like a massage to me making it addicting for me that's why I kept asking her to pat me every morning. Aaaaah, it felt so soothing.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We peeked from the door, watching the son of the king getting patted by his maid.

"This is very odd to see" I said to my friend maid, Nicole

"Hmm hmm, very odd" she agreed

"What are you two doing?" A familiar voice from behind, it was the king

"Oh, I am sorry your highness for doing suspicious act around your mansion" I said to him with a bow

The king walked past us and peeked at the door.

"Looks like it's those two again" he muttered

We joined the king, peeking at the prince and his maid.

"Your highness, how long have they known each other?" Nicole asked

"It is longer than you expected, they have known each other since they were young" the king replied

"How young?" I asked

"When they were both seven"

I was shocked by the answer, both of them are 21 today.

"What are your thoughts about their relationship?" I asked

"Well, when Rose was young, we saw her, alone. Freezing and shivering in the cold snow, she was abandoned by her parents. She also doesn't know why they have abandoned her. We took pity on her, and took her to our home. We gave her warmth, food and home to stay. But what she said, shocked us. In exchange, she said she is going to take care of our son as a maid, as a promise of exchange. We said there is no need, and we said to her to be his brother instead. But she denied which we don't know why. That's the whole story of how these two met. They have been together for years, they became close friends, the way they treat each other, the way they interact with each other, and their relationship... Is very odd"

That's a cute story they have, buy why didn't she accepted to be his brother instead? She will be considered as a royal family and can have whatever she wants, very odd.

"I agree sir, very odd"

"If only those two are gone so that I can see your pretty cute face" Prince Edward said to Rose, pointing at Rose's breasts, laying down on her lap

What!? Is this..... How they talk to each other?

"Oh, my my master, but they are pretty important for me you know" Rose replied

"Are you okay with they're relationship and how they talk to each other your highness?" I asked the king

"Hmmmmm, tsk, I... don't know"

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Father gave Rose a paper, listed things and foods that Rose will buy from town. Rose bowed and went to the door.

"Father, I will join Rose outside" I said to Father

"Okay son, but be safe"

I joined Rose at the door and went outside to go to town.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I peeked out of the window and looked outside. It is only the prince and his maid, walking outside of the gate, talking. Only just the two of them.

"Your highness, are you okay they are just the two of them. No guards?" I asked the king

"Wait what? They don't have guards with them!?" The highness shouted with surprise

He ran up to the door, too late. Both of them are already out and away from the palace gate.

(They forgot to call guards)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"1 kilogram of apples please"

I took some apples from my stand and put them in a weight scale.

"That will be 10 bronze coins sir" I said to my customer

I put the apples in his basket and took the coins from his hand.

"Come back again!"

Haaa, beautiful day to start. I heard whispers from my left, I looked to the left. It's the.... Prince, the prince of this kingdom with his maid.

"Aaaah! It's the prince!"

"So handsome!"

"If only I was that maid!"

People around them started shouting. I wonder how close the prince and his maid are? They way they talk with each other... Is odd.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Are we missing something?" I asked Rose

"Hmmm, we have everything here now master"

"Then let's go back to the palace!"

I suddenly heard loud music nearby, sounds of trumpets, violins, violas, cellos, snares, brass drums, flute, oboes and a lot more. I ran towards where it was coming from, Rose followed. There is a cultural dance that is happening, there is a flower painted on the ground. Flowers are the symbol of this kingdom.

There are a lot of people dancing in the middle, having fun, the people around are laughing, clapping their hands and stomping their feet to fit in the music.

"Rose! I want to dance" I said to Rose

"If you say so master" she replied and gave the basket to a nearby trusted person

Rose and I walked to the middle passing the crowd. We faced each other, we held hands. I put my left hand on her waist, she put her right hand on my shoulder. We started dancing, moving our legs around and tapping our feet on the ground.

"Isn't that the prince?"

"He is!"

"What is he doing here without someone protecting him?"

"He is with her.... Maid"

"That's.... Odd"

"Is the maid his lover?"

"I don't know, I heard that our prince charming is still single"

"Then that means I still have a chance!"

We danced, we exchanged partners, we made the pattern of the flower, following the ground. We rhythm our feet to the music, we let all of our feelings out. We exchanged smiles to the one we exchanged and partnered with.

"No way I am dancing with the prince! So handsome!"

The music continued, continued, and continued, until it came into a halt. The dance is finished, people around clapped and applauded for us. We said farewell to each other and went out of the crowd. Rose took the basket back from the person where she gave it to.

"Rose, did you have fun!?" I asked

"Of course master, I enjoyed the dance"

"Your highness! I have been looking for you!" A royal guard shouted, he stopped and panted heavily

"What is it?" I asked

"It isn't that urgent but, your father is calling for you right now"

I wonder what it is?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"My son, I am not sure how you will react to this but, the king and queen of one of our neighboring kingdoms will be coming here for a week" I said to my son

"And what does it do about me?" He asked

"Edward, I know this might come as a surprise, but Elmire's King and Queen have agreed to send their daughter, Princess Elara, for a visit. I know you're... well, I know you're focused on other things, but this is very important to us. She will be coming in a week"

"And what does princess Elara do in this kingdom?"

"Well, to..... Get know of you"

"Oh, is this what they call..... Relationship? Where the prince and the princess marry!?"

Why does he sound so excited and clueless at the same time?

"Yes"

"So, what do I or we get when I marry her?"

"Well, we will get a Royal Alliance with the King and Queen of Elmire. We will get united with them to avoid any conflicts and create a shared defense against common enemies"

"Is that so? Then okay! I will marry her for the sake of the kingdom" he replied with a big and shining smile and raising a thumbs up

"Yaay, master agreed for the good of the kingdom! Master! I knew you'd make the right choice! I know you'll be happy with Princess Elara. You'll make a wonderful couple" Edward's maid, Rose, said it joyfully

My son answered without hesitation! AAAAHHHHH! My son doesn't know anything about love!
