MY Charming Lover Leopold

By: Clarenz

Prince Adolfo

Lord Leopold

Princess Alexandre

(Autumn in 1938)

It’s been 20 years since the constitutional monarchy here in Mcmillan has been abolished. I was 3 years old back then when the royal family ended on November, 9, 1918, 2 days after the end of the first great war. But our family never  loses our royal title. I am Serene Princess  Alexandre of Teck, the lady of the house of Grimaldi. I will be the last princess of Mcmillan. Probably once I get married to a commoner or a guy that has a royal title lower than the prince, I might lose my royal title. As of now our safety as a royalty is in a threat. We might get assassinated anytime soon  because of the situations right now.  Since my dad is the last Emperor of Mcmillan there is a threat in our life. Who knows we might restore the royal family after this situation, that is why our life is in danger. My mom Augusta Victoria of Schleswig-Holstein She is the last Empress Mcmillan. She was a wonderful woman but She died at the age of 43 in 1921 when I was 6, during our exile in Benhovia. Now, I’m here inMcmillan after a lot of years of exile. I came back because of my fathers will. Also to find the guy that I love, he is my first love and my childhood friend. I don’t know where he is right now, but I hope he is alright and I miss him so much.

(Court lady)*Bow* Your Serene Highness Mademoiselle\, Prince Adolfo is waiting for you downstairs in the grand foyer.

(Alexandre) Why is he here?

(Court lady) He was invited by your step mother Princess Hermine Reuss of Greiz,  to have breakfast with you, Your Serene highness.

(Alexandre) Oh I see, then I’ll head now to the grand foyer to greet him. And please take care of Munchi for me. She needs to go for a walk right now.

(Court lady) Yes, Your serene highness.

I forgot to tell you that I have a stepmother who married my dad  after my mom died.  We are quite close to each other and she became my second mom. She wants me to marry Prince Adolfo of Earnest so that I will not lose my royal title as the Princess of Mcmillan. Even though Mcmillan is just a state  now of a big country here in Europe I should still be their princess. So that is why my stepmom summoned Prince Adolfo.

(Adolfo) My lady\, I was so happy to see you. You are so beautiful whenever I see you\, you become much much more beautiful .*bow and Kissed her hand*

(Alexandre) *chuckles* Thank you \, I was also delighted to see you\, Your Royal Highness. *curtsy*

(Servant) Your highnesses, the tea is already served in the tea room.

(Adolfo) We are not going to stay here. I will bring her serene highness to my favourite place to eat my breakfast.

(Servant) Very well, your highness.

(Alexandre) Where are we going?

(Adolfo) In my favourite place.

(Alexandre) Well then we must head out now.

(Adolfo) Okay let's go.

*A moment later.

(Adolfo) We already arrived

(Alexandre)  All right.

(Adolfo) Oh hold up I’ll open the door for you.

(Alexandre) Oh thank you. So  Your Highness what is this place?

(Adolfo) This is my favourite finest restaurant to eat here in the city. Haven't you been to a place like this??

(Alexandre) No I’m not, I was forbidden to eat in a public place. You know I am a royalty and I might get assassinated because of these circumstances. And also I just came back after our exile.

(Adolfo) Oh I see, so this must be your first time eating in this kind of environment?

(Alexandre) Yes, it was Your Highness.

(Adolfo) We must head in now. I want to make this unforgettable for you Alexandre. And please don’t use honorifics just call me by my name Alexandre.

(Alexandre) *Chuckles*  Okay  Adolfo.

Adolfo is also my childhood friend. He is very competitive, Smart, and handsome. But there are rumours that he has a bad temper and has bad habits. A lot of girls want to marry him because he has everything you wished on a guy, but he only has bad behaviour.  And I don’t like to marry him. He is not that charming and I treat him as a brother. I want a guy that is very charming like a prince charming like-....

(Alexandre) Oh! ouch

(?????) I’m sorry my lady, are you alright??
