The Princess’s Warden

“I didn’t ask for this. I wasn’t born a knight, and I’ve never been anyone’s protector. But now, thanks to a stubborn princess who refuses to let me go, I’ve become her Warden.

On the surface, my job sounds simple—keep her safe, stay by her side, and try not to lose my sanity. Her days are filled with royal routines and expectations, but mine? Mine are spent making sure she doesn’t fall into trouble—or drag me into it.

But there’s something unsettling about her calm smiles and soft words. I don’t see the strings she’s pulling, but I feel them—subtle, deliberate, tightening around me day by day. She doesn’t just want my protection. She wants me. And while I focus on keeping her safe, I can’t help but wonder if I’m the one who needs protecting.

I’m the Princess’s Warden. Her shield, her shadow, her keeper. And somehow, I get the feeling that I’ll never escape her.”
