Imagine being Miguel's personal royal guard.

prince!stone who's father is still the same douchebag, but now way, way more powerful

king!stone who loses his father and now, has the biggest responsibility in the kingdom, which means that now, he needs to have his security increased as well

king!stone who connects a little bit too much with royal guard!reader, a man known dor his excellent skills as a royal guard because he has years of experience

(also this can be so angsty because even knowing that stone is gay he'll be forced to marry a woman to continue the royal family's lineage but we can ignore that for now)

Well, anon, it won't be so angsty, since Stone is a trans man. We'll just have him not have his bottom surgery in this version, which means we can write Stone getting pregnant by Royal Guard!Reader. I mean so there's no angst and oh, look! A Stone who hasn't been kicked out by his father! What a rare version.

King!Stone had to hire an entire new Royal Guard when his father was dead, because if there was anything he learned from his predecessor, it was to be extremely paranoid. So in order to soothe his paranoia, he had to get a Royal Guard that was his. Loyal to him only, not like the old Royal Guard who were loyal to his late father.

In his search for new guards to be on his Royal Guard, he finds you, a soldier who has several years of experience of being the general of the kingdom's military. He had been searching for a new Head of the Royal Guard who was experienced but hadn't been serving under his father and it seemed like you were just the man for the job.

So you are summoned to the throne room, Stone filling out the throne with his burly body as he sits confidently like his late father had. You're reverent towards him, sensing a softness hidden beneath his cold and stoic demeanor. A softness that you wanted to protect.

He is enamored with you, the way you stood tall and strong. The way your words are blunt like his, honest to a fault. He needs someone kind, but someone who was honest. He never trusted those who delved in the niceties, in the fakeness of being polite for the sake of being polite.

He has been listening to so many soldiers pleading their case to join his Royal Guard, most of them kissing his ass because they thought he'd respond better to it, so you are a breath of fresh air. There is a sincerity in your talk of being loyal to him that can't be faked and he likes that about you.

So he is quick to offer you the position, which you so graciously take. He sends one of his best servants to guide you to your new bedchambers, watching you leave the throne room with a hidden glint in his brown eyes. Yes, he had a feeling he would not regret giving you the position of Head Guard.

i miss king!stone how is my boy

Let me just say it took me an embarrassingly long time to find the King!Stone Drabble, because I was convinced for some reason that I had written it when I had started to deviate putting things on my numerous masterlists (why did I start doing that?) but I checked my Stone x Male!Reader Masterlist, and there it was. Thankfully. Cause I was not finding it when I was searching on my Tumblr blog.

Anyways, here's the first post. Let's get into the juicy parts.

King!Stone was shameless staring out the window of his bedchambers which was conveniently looking out into the courtyard where you were training with the rest of the Royal Guard. A Royal Guard which was his alone and loyal to him.

It soothed him to know he finally had guards that were truly his own, no longer sullied by the influence of his late father. And the cherry on the top was you, his Head Guard who made his heart race.

He knew he shouldn't be falling for you, but he couldn't help it. With you around, he felt safe. Felt like he could shed the cold and stoic demeanor his father had beaten into him.

So it was only right that he watched you train, so that he could make sure you were still his guard. That you were still safe.

His brown eyes took in every detail of you as you sparred with another guard, drinking in the sight of your muscles moving beneath all that armor.

When it came to you, he was like a virgin—scratch that, he was actually a virgin. He was like a dehydrated man and you were a river, he wanted to drink everything you were, consume you until you were all he could think about.

A little voice in his head, that sounded an awful lot like his later father's, told him he was being pathetic. He was a king and yet here was, vying for your attention. But his heart couldn't help it, not when you'd glance up and at the palace's windows and you'd smile at seeing him looking down at you.

He was bewitched by you, destined to foolishly follow after you like you were the king and he was the guard. He desired you, desired to have you beside him on a throne.

But he forced himself to slow his thoughts down, to just be content in staring at you from afar.

After all, Stone might be a king but before that, he was his father's weapon. A beast on the battlefield. Surely, you desired someone better than a man wrought with war and paranoia. You deserved to settle down with someone who was calmer and could give the peace you no doubt could give him.

Little did he know, all you desired was him. And you felt very guilty for that.

So here you two were, believing the other deserved more than you could offer.

What would king! Stone do if his Royal Guard got injured protecting him from an assassin or something? 🫧

King!Stone would see red. No one hurts you (even though Stone was the intended target) and he doesn't let them get to it. The assassin is lucky that Stone's other guards stepped in before he could and chained them up, because Stone would've had no mercy for them if he had to have restrained them himself.

First, he makes sure that you're taken to the medical wing in the palace and he stays there all while his best physicians are working on patching you up. He doesn't care that he has responsibilities still, he needs to know you're okay!

And when you're all patched up, you beg King!Stone for forgiveness because surely you must've failed him if an assassin managed to find their way into the palace. You're so devoted to him like that and it's so endearing.

At the same time, Stone is absolutely furious you think that way, he's the one who should be sorry. He let you get hurt on his watch, granted he had no control over you taking what would be his injury, but he still feels like he should be the one groveling.

If any of the royal staff thinks it's weird their king is practically groveling at the Head Guard's feet, no they don't.

Stone tells his head servant to cancel any meetings he has with his advisors, stating that he'll be staying by your side. Because of course you're more important than his duties (only he thinks that).

Prepare to have a king practically reducing himself to a mere servant as he attends to your very need during your healing process.
