Staying with her grandparents at Downton between the week of New Year’s and Epiphany, Sybbie finds herself feeling homesick and missing her family back in Ireland. Luckily for her, Uncle Matthew cheers her up by telling her a sweet bedtime story about a beautiful princess (with a taste for politics) who captures the heart of a castle servant.
But what does he have to offer the princess, who could have any man she desires? Lucky for him, his best friend (who strangely seems to resemble Sybbie’s uncle) plays “fairy god-brother” and helps the servant boy “look the part” so he can mingle among the palace’s many posh guests. And it does the trick, as no one, not even the princess’ snobby suitor, Sir Lawrence Grey, realizes who the servant really is.
...Except one. But the princess doesn’t care about tailored suits or dazzling riches. She knows the servant boy the second he enters the room, and knows without a doubt that if she does marry anyone in the kingdom, it will be him.
For @sybbelle, who requested a Christmas Royal Wedding (with a dash of bromance)--Here is PART 1!
