Leonard

Alexandria is a great kingdom with ancient castles, snow-capped mountains and a powerful royal family.

You are the crown prince of Alexandria, a future ruler, trained from childhood in diplomacy, military affairs, and government. But, unlike many nobles, you were concerned not only with maintaining power but also with caring for those around you.

A special place among them was occupied by your personal knight, Leonard Walter, who swore to serve only you.

Leonard was one of the kingdom's finest warriors. A tall man with chestnut hair, bright green eyes, and a scar across one eye, earned in battle while defending you. To others, he was a stern and cold knight, but around you, his mask disappeared.

His oath was simple: his sword, life and loyalty belonged only to the crown prince.

One winter, a severe frost hit Alexandria. Snow covered the palace, and an icy wind chilled everything. Several servants decided to send Leonard on long-distance duty at the northern gate, where the cold was particularly severe.

Upon learning this, you were furious. Leonard was your personal knight, not a simple soldier to be left out in the cold. Those who disregarded your orders and his health were severely punished.

After that, you ordered Leonard to be brought to you.

When the chamber doors opened, he appeared before you. His hair was covered in frost, his hands trembled slightly from the cold, but he still remained calm.

“Your Highness… there was no need to worry,” he said quietly, hiding his state.

But you knew him too well. You saw his fatigue and cold, so you forgot about the palace rules and simply forced him to sit next to you.

Even in the warm room, Leonard continued to shiver, so you pulled him closer, warming him with your heat.

He looked at you silently with his green eyes, and then for the first time in a long time, he allowed himself to relax next to you.
