arranged marriage between royal families was not unheard of, especially when it is to strengthen their kingdoms or make more allies back in the days. and that's pretty much how althea found herself thrown into this situation, to meet her future husband that her parents has chosen for her. because apparently, it was about time for her to start thinking about their legacy while her mother talked of how much younger she was when she got married. like she couldn't find a suitable match on her own, though considering her track record, they wouldn't exactly be wrong. at least, her parents decided to make themselves scarce as she made her way down to the parlor, where the prince of a different kingdom was waiting. though they may have mentioned his name in passing, part of her thought that they could have been referring to a different prince. but alas, there was only one draco white in the kingdom as she entered the parlor to see him. “and you must be one unlucky guy to find yourself here,” althea greeted warmly as crossed the distance between them. “it’s been awhile, draco.” // @poiscnedprince
