As normal next-door guy, I obviously have a huge crush on my neighbor. If you are asking yourself why it's secret crush, you probably never had one yourself, no one wants a secret crush if you can have the real deal okay? Unfortunately for me, my secret crush is a tad difficult to become the real deal.
First problem is she is engaged. Yes. I love someone else's fiancée, but what can I do? She's just too overwhelming perfect and I couldn't control my feelings after getting to know her. And she's not only engaged, but her fiancée is my rival since birth. Just knowing they were betrothed made me had the urge to go rack that guy with my sword.
Second problem is that although we're neighbors, we are not next door neighbors but next country neighbors. If you're thinking that we are not technically neighbors I would like to inform you that not mere where she is she will be my neighbor, room, house, neighborhood, city, country, continent, planet, galaxy...
This is our conscious so please stop meddling, thank you very much.
And the third problem is that we barely saw each other after we grown up, so she may not even remember me. It would be kinda of awkward confess to someone who doesn't even know who you are right?
But maybe G.o.d heard my prayers and something like a miracle happened this last months. First, that (thank G.o.d) stupid rival broke his engagement with (my angel) the girl. I heard he had someone else and all. To this kinda of stupid Yi can only say that I'm furious and glad at the same time.
So first problem solved.
And then comes the second and third problem. Even if I would like to travel to the other country and profess my live for her, because of my social standing, it's impossible.
I needed a legitimate reason to leave my duty as Crown Prince and visit our neighbor without causing any diplomatic difficulties.
And just as I was racking my brains to figure out how, my problems were solved for me.
Yes, just like that. Maybe G.o.d is really hoping that we be together.
How you ask? Hmm... it all started a month after the Crown Prince from the neighboring nation broke his engagement with the Prime Minister's daughter and decided to have an illegitimate baron's daughter as his lover.
To this day, I really couldn't phantom what goes to Albert's mind to make this move. As a king it was an unwise move and even if we shouldn't judge others love affairs, in my opinion it was still a dumb move. It's like trading platinum for golden. Maybe the last is more popular but it's not even near the value or use of the first. But whatever, he making a mistake it's actually a huge victory for me and my nation.
Just like me, apparently most of the people in his kingdom thought he was stupid. He started to loose support and some of the n.o.bility of his country started to have ideas. One of them was a count, who was very influential there.
The count wanted to make a coup and looked for help in our Empire.
Because in our culture polygamy is the normal trend, my Father has many wives, resulting in me having many (MANY) siblings. Unfortunately the harem relations.h.i.+p is not very peaceful and the relations.h.i.+p between siblings or father and child can barely be considered neutral.
As I'm the Crown Prince, my life and t.i.tle are always in constant danger since my brothers and sisters vie for my position night and day, and as far as I am concerned, Father would change the t.i.tle if any of my siblings ever surpa.s.s me.
So after Count Fournier contacted my third brother and offered many privileges for him like lands and alliance to the Empire, my stupid brother agreed in helping him with his plans. Although me and Father knew of their plans, neither of us stopped them.
For me, it didn't matter if my brother succeeded or not, I would be on the winning end either way... or that's what I thought.
His plan failed miserably and his partner fled to our Empire. Until here it was fine. He will loose father's trust and is one less brother to concern myself. But can anyone explain to me why did he ever make an attempt to my (future) wife?! Not only she almost got hurt, she's even furious at our Empire! How am I suppose to get her to accept coming over now?!
But even if it was in unfavorable conditions, brother did give me a reason to visit her country and herself. For that, I will spare his life and exile him to our wastelands in the north.
So after settling things down, I hastily left to the neighbor country in a diplomatic mission or as I prefer to call wife catching!
"Your Highness, don't you think we should visit the castle first?" A baron chosen to accompany me in this diplomatic trip asked me.
"Tsk! What do you know? This is called sincerity! Our people made so many wrongdoings to poor Ce- Miss Dubois, that I as the Crown Prince should come to apologize don't you think?" People are trying to pursue their wives, don't meddle!
The baron nodded with an unconvinced look.
"I agree. But isn't that too many presents?"
The baron pointed to the three other carriages following us and I shook my head.
"I heard she lost her guards in this endeavor. This can not even begin to match her or their families loss"
To this I only heard the baron whisper something like isn't that just some guards, which I ignored. It's sad how people in our standing think of life as sesame seeds, that's why, for me, how Cecile cares for everyone and anyone is dazzling.
As we approach her state I couldn't even hear the sound of the horses galloping anymore or the baron's bagging.
My heart was beating so fast and so loud, that I thought that any moment now he would jump out of my rib cage.
Looking at the door of the Dubois state I opened a big smile.
Wife, I'm finally here to bring you home with me!
