C1 Prologue

Felix's P.O. V

I'm Felix, king of Litopia. I got crowned as king when I was 20 years old, seven years ago. I'm now 27.

I have short blonde hair and blue eyes. My body is muscular, toned and strong as I exercise almost daily, it's a necessity for members of the royal family to know at least a few defence moves and to be strong enough to protect themselves in an emergency situation, but for a king it's also necessary to be able to protect his servants.

I had to be crowned, due to my father, the late king's sudden passing. There was a huge war between the kingdoms of Litopia and Rowsol Valley, in which many lost their lives, husbands, brothers and just like me, fathers.

My dad and I have always been close even with the battles for the throne nothing came between us. He taught me everything I know from fighting to languages, strategies and everything else.

After he passed, my mom and I's relationship also improved. It was never bad, but since she was the only family I had left, we had to learn to lean on each other during the hard times.

Losing her husband was really hard on my mom. I had never seen her cry or be emotional, because even if she was, she hid it really well, like a true queen. I made sure to always be there for her as we both went through the hardest times of our lives not only for the family, but for the kingdom as well. We were mourning a father and husband, while they mourned their king, all while I adjusted to being king and the servants learned to accept me as we came together to recover the losses caused during the war.

My mother's name is Natalia. She is a beautiful, petite and elegant lady. She left you dumbfounded whenever she walked past you, her beauty and elegance never failing to amaze me. She was always composed and strong, no matter the situation and her smarts were enough to leave your mouth dangling open with just a few words. I truly hoped that one day, my wife would be as amazing of a queen as she is.

Speaking of my wife, I truly got lucky with her. Her name is Veronica. She has long, straight light brown hair and gorgeous green eyes that I get lost in every time I look at them. Her smile was enough to make the whole room light up and her melodic voice was music for the ears. Her personality never failed to amaze me as she made me laugh, smile and fall more and more in love every day.

I fell in love with her at first sight.The second I laid eyes on her, I knew she had to be mine. We met at my coronation. It was a very formal event, much to my dismay as it hadn't been that long since dad had passed. Veronica was the daughter of the two head warriors, who sadly both passed away trying to protect my father during the bloody war. She and her older sister were sadly left orphans. Veronica stayed living in her parents' house and her sister moved away with her husband as the memories were too much for her to bare.

Once the official part of the coronation was over I went to introduce myself, using the excuse that they were the daughters of the head warriors and deserved to be given condolences. I asked for Veronica to come to my office the next day so we could support each other during the grieving process.

About an year later, when we were both feeling better I asked her out and much to my surprise, she said yes. We went on a date and hit it off really well. We had similar interests and sense of humour. Every date we had I got more and more amused by her smarts, beauty and personality and three years later, when I was 24 and she was 21 we got married and she got announced as the new queen of Litopia.

We have been inseparable ever since, our love growing every day. Every time she laughs, it leaves me longing for more, every time she smiles, I find myself smiling too, every time I look into her eyes I get lost in them, seeing my future, and every time I see her I'm blown away by her beauty, thanking life everyday that it paired me with her.

My family and I live in the royal palace along with our maids, guards, chefs, council members and doctors.

The palace is over a decade old, but still stands firm and powerful. Its located near the sea with huge green mountains behind it.

It's a gorgeous sight! It's made out of stone and gold as they collide in perfect synch. Flowers have been planted around the main gate and ivy is curling around the stone as if hugging it, adding the perfect touch

The royal family and council members lived and worked on the last floor of the castle as well as our personal maids and guards and guests, if there were any. My office is at the right wing of the last floor, while my mother's and our bedroom were in the left wing.

Veronica and I's room is the biggest. It also has an en-suit bathroom, a closet and a big terrace.

Our bedroom consisted of a large, king sized bed with gold frames and a veil, two white nightstands on each side of the bed with a lamp on each side, a cozy white stone fireplace with two beige cushions in front of it, my wife's vanity, where she had her makeup and perfumes and a puffy rug in the middle of the room. Pretty much all the bedrooms on this floor looked like this, except the higher ranked you are, the fancier and the bigger it is.

Our closet was a walk-in. The right side had Veronica's clothes and the left one had mine while the middle held our more fancy attire for the formal meetings. Over our clothes were placed shelves with jewellery, Veronica's tiaras and crown, hair accessories and my watches and crown.

But it's not always gold and formal meetings, there is a lot of work put into ruling a country and it certainly wasn't easy. There was always a ton of paperwork to be done as well as trips around the country, taxes and everything else.

Me and my closest guards and council members travel around the country every spring to be sure the servants were doing ok and had no complaints. We bring donations to the poor and trade items with sellers. We check if anyone is breaking the law or if anyone is being mistreated and after we are done we head back to the castle. It usually takes around three to five months, based on the year.

I was sitting at the desk in my office looking through the expenses of this year's travel and preparing all of the paperwork that has to be ready in order for me to able to ensure work is done so I could travel and also the paperwork that I have to sign when leaving someone in charge of the kingdom while I'm gone. That someone is usually my mother as I know she wouldn't betray me and she has been ruling for a long time now.

I was working when I heard Nathaniel knocking on the door. He is my closest friend, maybe my only friend, my guard, my advisor. He kept on knocking but got no answer. I frowned. Do they really have to interrupt me every five minutes!

,,Your majesty, may I enter?" He finally asked.

,,Yes,Nathaniel, come in!" I answered, rolling my eyes. With that he opened the wooden doors and I saw his slim, but toned body, jet black hair and brown eyes in front of me.

,,Your majesty, I'm sorry to be bothering you, but queen Veronica wants to see you immediately. She said it's important. Should I let her in?" Veronica never came in while I was working, unless it was important. I wondered if everything was ok for a second before finally deciding that I could just get the answer if she came in.

,,Let her in Nathaniel!" I ordered. Within a couple of seconds my beautiful wife came in with a beaming smile that like aways lit up the room.

,,Honey, I have to tell you something!" She said, looking up at me.
