The Little Prince (AU)
Starter for @clouclenvy // plotted
It has been hours since the prince had opened the doors to hear the woes of the village, each resident lining up outside the castle to be heard and to have their grievances aired in order to get gold for their family. Luca has been standing beside the prince since the first rays of light kissed the kingdom, his sword anchored to his side as he made sure to keep people at a distance. Stepping forward each time someone moved too close or the prince looked as if they were about to lose their temper. “Alright, that’s enough for today, those of you who have not been heard may return tomorrow, those of you who have been granted your requests are to stay home and return to work, understood?” Luca is thankful for the interruption as the advisor finally steps in, his feet ache but he says nothing, his stomach grumbles but he hopes that it is not heard as he looks toward the crowned prince and offers them a slight smile, at least now they can return to their chambers seeing as how the sun has already started to set. It would be far too late to go for a ride like they had wanted to last night, something for which Luca is thankful for as he waits for the prince to make the first move, meanwhile he glances around the room.
“Shall I escort you back to your chambers my prince? Or shall I call upon the chambermaids to have them draw a bath?” Lips nearly brush over Baekhyun’s ear as he asks the questions, not wanting to air the privacies of the prince to those that are still leaving until the doors finally closed and the guards lock them, standing at attention for the rest of the night.
