***

She’s gone.

I clenched my fist against my chest as I watched the carriage depart. She was really gone. Pain prickled through my chest. She was returning to her homeland, the kingdom of Freesia. A gentle wind blew past me, rustling my hair. She’d restored my whole life to me…and then she was gone.

The carriage grew smaller and smaller until it disappeared entirely, yet the warmth of her touch lingered on my hand and lips.

“Pride…” The wind caught up the murmur of her name and whisked it away. But she’d lit a fire in my heart, a fire young and new that would make her dear to me forever.

“I’ve had a vision. It’s a glimpse of what the future holds for this kingdom without Prince Leon.”

Pride knew it all. She knew everything about me and my brothers and the direction the kingdom was headed—and she used that knowledge to save me and my kingdom. This wasn’t her homeland; it was just a tiny little country.

“Prince Leon, this kingdom needs you.”

Those words were my salvation. She assured me that I was needed. She said the words I’d longed to hear all my life. I never expected that from another soul.

We were sworn friends.

A “friend.” Me—the man who never had any friends of his own. The man whose own brothers despised him. Her words warmed me in a way no flattery ever had. Plenty of women had tried to earn my favor, but she was different. She said that, as sworn friends, we didn’t need any sort of romantic relationship.

It was the first time I’d ever connected with someone like that.

Not even the breaking of our engagement would break our bond. It was dizzying. Until now, if I told a woman I didn’t care to share a future with her, she always left me and disappeared. Yet Pride, no longer my fiancée, would always be there for me.

I was going to help her ensure the prosperity of our kingdoms. Of that I was sure.

A woman wanted me for reasons other than lust—and the world’s most beautiful woman, at that. I was determined to live up to her expectations, no matter what it took.

I was still a twisted soul—both as a person and a ruler. If Pride hadn’t reached out to save me, I would have lost my heart, my will, and my truths without ever having realized any of them.

Erwin hadn’t been wrong. He said I was a doll with no will of its own. He pointed out that I never picked up on their plots. He called me “creepy.” He said I wanted the townsfolk to love me so that I could feel better about myself. None of that was incorrect. Yet I was sure that I earnestly wanted to live for the sake of my people. I wanted to support them, no matter how twisted a person I might be.

But then Pride interrupted their insults…

“Prince Leon is a proud man who will make a fine king.”

“He isn’t a doll. He loves the Anemonian people more than he loves himself.
