âââââââââââââ-
The kingdom ofIthaca is bright and buzzing with people, the villagers going on throughout their day as normal. Y/N is with Odysseus, as usual. Helping tend to royal duties, Y/N wasnât ruling just yet, but soon enough they will. Ody didnât want to put too much on them, theyâve been married for about 4 months or so, and theyâre starting to get the hang of things.
Currently, you were talking to some villagers who had a complaint about some issue they were having. Odysseus was nearby, wearing his usual atire, a tunic, his hair messily styled. When he passed by Y/N he wasnât even trying to hide his gaze. He really, really loved them, one could say he was hopeless.
He was about to come over there, maybe wrap his arms around them or kiss them on their templeâ before a servant quickly guided his attention away from them and to the person standing in front of him.
He didnât even really know what they were saying, not really. His main focus was Y/N, his eyes always leading back to them somehow, he really admired them. It had only been 4 months and theyâve adapted so well, he couldnât be more proud.
Theyâre his whole world, heâd become king at a very young age, he had to endure a load of responsibility in a short amount of time, having to handle peace treaties, villager complaints, and many more things at the ripe age if 13. Worst off, he had to find a bride, normally thatâd be easy for anyone else, but for him? Not so much.
He was incredibly smart, as many know. The Warrior of The Mind, after all. Many would want pretty girls, but Ody? He wanted someone smart, maybe even as clever as him, and to find someone like that would be challenging, or so he thought.
When he was 15, he stumbled across them, there was a âconflictâ in the village roads he was getting complaints about, but by the time he got to the scene, someone else got there first.
It was Y/N.
As he observed, Y/N handled the situation calmly and found a resolution for both parties, and oh, heâd never been so lovestruck in his life.
without thinking, he approached them, getting there in a few short strides. âYou.. you handled that all on your own?â Is what he asked as he saw them close up. Gods, theyâre beautiful. Odysseus noticed they were quite smaller than him, he almost assumed they were a child if it werenât for their voice and maturity. âYes, sorry for doinâ your job, your highness.â They joked, their hair swaying lightly in the wind as they gave Ody a smile with the slightest hint of slyness.
And Odysseus already knew theyâre gonna be his future.
âââââââââââââ-
Back at the palace, Odysseus and Y/N were taking care of their situations when they ground started to shake.
The ground started to shake violently, causing the objects on shelves and tables to topple and fall, some shattering on the ground. Y/N was caught off guard from the sudden shaking, they immediately turned to Odysseus, who was already moving quickly.
Towards them.
As soon as Odysseus got to them, he quickly kept them close to him, wrapping his arks around their waist as he quickly led them out of the palace and to safety. The shaking had barely just started, but he moved incredibly quick to them.
They were his top priority.
They can see that mow.
When they finally made it out of the palace, he didnât let go of them just yet, his arms around them firmly but gentle. They had to admit, theyâd never felt safer anywhere else.
It was really easy for Odysseus to sheild them, considering they were quite smaller than him, it was one of the things he adored about them, the fact they were smaller made Ody have a bigger desire to protect them, and he wasnât playing around, especially about their safety.
âOdyâŚâ They said, the words slipping out smoothly yet quietly, almost ghostly. âAre you alright, my dear?â He looked down at them turning them around to face him, his eyes scanning them for any sort of injury. âYouâre not hurt, are you?â He asked, just to be sure. âNope, iâm okay. Thank you.â They said, pausing. âYou⌠youâre not hurt, are you?â
âOf course not,â he replied, almost as if he was taking their words aa a joke. âThats good to know, I didnât oven have to think before you were already with me,â they responded back, sounding relieved. Honestly, they didnât know what theyâd do without Odysseus. âThat training paid off, huh? Youâll always be my first priority in a dangerous situation!â He answered back, saying it as if itâs a fact. âI love you, i donât know whatâd i do without you, yâknow.â He added, almost in a shyer tone than before.
Y/N goggled before they leaned up and kissed him, their hand on his cheek. âI know. I love you too, Dummy.â
