Jester X Princess 👸

You are a princess, daughter of a powerful king. To forge alliances with the neighboring kingdom, you were betrothed to the prince of that kingdom. You don't love him, but in your entire life you have never been able to decide anything for yourself; every step you took was always calculated.

When the engagement was official, both kingdoms held a grand celebration for the upcoming marriage. You hated every second of it. When the jester appeared, he made everyone laugh. You walked away to the bench; you needed air. When the jester finished, he decided to come to you.

Alex, a court jester known for his comical antics, made a silly face, trying to make you laugh. When you didn't respond, he took a step closer, his expression turning serious as he sat down next to you.

—Princess... Bee Cruz, why are you always so serious? Don't you enjoy your party? "At least do me the favor of smiling or faking a laugh... so I feel less pathetic," I murmured, looking at you. "I know you have a lovely smile, I've seen it before."
