y/n often found herself wishing she could live as those in lower rank.
no expectations, reputation to hold... just a chance to be happy with who they choose.
and today was like no other. well... other then the news y/n received.
"miss y/n?" a handmaiden knocked on her bedroom door.
the sleeping girl nudged slightly. soft snores escaped her mouth and drool hit her pillow.
"y/n!" her mother's high pitched voice suddenly woke the girl up as she swatted her with her hand-fan that was gifted from the last suitor's mother.
"ah!" y/n yelped as she sat up, her heart pounding from the intrusion of her slumber.
"we have a guest coming soon. look presentable instantly," her mother instructed before she walked out of the room.
y/n rubbed the sleepiness from her eyes as the handmaidens came sashaying in.
"do any of you know who the guest is?" y/n asked as the servants began working on her hair and sorting out her dress.
"i believe it's another suitor." maribel, the handmaiden closest to y/n, spoke.
y/n nearly choked on her spit. in a coughing fit, one of the ladies rushed to get her a glass of water.
"another?" y/n coughed anxiously.
"well- you are the only (l/n) sister to not be wedded."
what amelia said was true. y/n was the youngest of the (l/n) family, a long line of royal lineage. she had four sisters and they were all helping their husbands rule their own countries.
y/n had met suitors from france, great britian, and prussia, but none of them had ever caught her attention, frankly because it lied elsewhere.
-
"i cannot marry him, vinnie!" y/n paced back and forth as they stood in vinnie's own little hut ways away back in the forest.
her lavender dress swayed with every step. vinnie approached her, his beautiful eyes locking themselves on her frame.
"you're going to be alright, my precious angel."
"he- he's vile and cruel and he is a two faced roach! one moment he's flattering my mother and the next he's-"
vinnie's strong arms wrapped around y/n's body as she sunk herself into him. his bandaged hands slid up and down her biceps in an attempt to soothe her.
vinnie knew all too well of what had happened because he watched it all play out.
-
y/n's hands were tucked away behind her back as she stood with her mother and father. the duke of spain stood before them, his black hair slicked back with bright yellow and red colors standing proud on his coat.
"welcome, it is so lovely to meet your acquaintance," y/n's mother bowed to the duke. y/n followed her mum's actions as she watched duke joaquín charm her father.
"wipe that look off your face," her mom nudged her slightly. y/n hadn't noticed how her face twisted in disgust. the four all approached the dining room.
vinnie worked with the horses but sometimes helped in the castle with the cooking. while he was well aware of most of the girls infatuation with him, he paid no attention to them.
when y/n first saw vinnie she couldn't help but let herself be absolutely smitten by him. his beautiful curls, glowing features, sharp jawline and the tattoos that coated his skin. something about him seemed so... bad. and y/n was drawn to him.
vinnie's heart practically skipped a beat when he saw y/n seated at the dining room table. only she has ever had that effect on him, the one that made his tummy erupt in butterflies.
their secret affair had been going on for at least four months. vinnie had never known what love was, his mother died in childbirth and he never met his father. but when y/n shot him sassy yet flirtatious remarks to his witty ones, he knew that their personalities were synced. it was as if they were one soul split between two bodies.
he served the royal family their first course to which they all mumbled thank yous. vinnie paid no mind, he was too busy watching y/n. she looked absolutely disinterested as duke joaquín boasted about his achievements and wars he has won.
vinnie often found himself wishing he was higher rank. the life he could promise y/n, a way to properly support her and a chance for them to be together publicly.
he wanted nothing more in his life then to be able to be the best partner for y/n, because he's never loved anyone like this before.
y/n flashed him a small smile as he exited to the kitchen. after the royal family finished their courses and meals, vinnie stood in a hallway (cleaning a gifted china vase- not ease-dropping).
"i think we should leave the two alone," the queen spoke up.
"of course, dear," the king agreed as the royal couple tangled their arms together and walked out of the dining room.
vinnie's whole body shifted when he heard duke joaquín speaking in a low-toned voice to y/n.
"you better accept my proposal, or else i will ruin you and your prissy family."
blood rushed through vinnie's veins and it felt as if smoke was gushing out his ears. all he wanted to do was go beat the man to a bloody pulp-
"vincent?" another servant asked. vinnie and the man got along exceptionally well, maybe even close friends status. he was named joseph.
vinnie hadn't noticed the now broken vase in his blooded hands. he hadn't even heard the shatter, too lost in his own anger.
-
"i want to run away, vinnie. i cannot live this disheartening life anymore- i refuse!" y/n ranted on.
"allow me to take you somewhere, my princess?" vinnie asked.
y/n let out a slow nod. vinnie delicately grabbed her hand as their interlocked fingers.
he lead her to their place- the place where there was no titles, expectations, rules. a place where it was two souls allowed to love.
a giant field of flowers that overlooked the extravagant castle in the distance. all sorts of flowers occupied the land with a small stream of water being the only noise heard for miles.
vinnie let out a deep breath. he watched the way y/n's dress flowed in the wind, her beautiful skin glowed in the sunlight. he couldn't wait any longer.
"my princess?"
y/n looked back at vinnie to see the man on one knee. she let out a gasp as he grabbed her hand so delicately, something he always did. it was if she was glass and he was afraid to break her with a strong grip. she loved that about him.
"i've been infatuated with you from the moment i laid my eyes upon you. you're extremely beautiful, y/n, but your mind is what is so pleasing to my soul. the way you never doubt speaking up about actions and decisions and your astonishing personality has got me in a trance. i know i cannot promise you a good life- i know i cannot promise you what all the dukes can- but i can promise you that i will love you unconditionally as long as my heart shall beat. will you do me the biggest honor, and take me as your husband?"
y/n knew tears were rolling down her cheeks but she didn't care.
"yes! oh my goodness- yes," y/n pressed passionate and gentle kisses to vinnie's plump lips.
she loved him and believed she wouldn't love anyone else as much as she loved vincent.
the newly engaged couple laid down on the grass, cuddled up against one another. the day went from being atrocious to outstanding within a few hours.
y/n was with her fiancé, in their spot, without a single thought in their mind. because in the field of flowers, they were allowed to be free.
