GENMUI!

Secret Love Letters

(Royal au part 2)

A week later, Genya and Muichiro kept writing to each other secret letters to one other without anyone knowing..sooner later the two hearts found themselves bound by a secret love, concealed from the prying eyes of the court.

Prince Genya Shinazugawa, second in line to the throne, was a young man of sharp wit and a fierce sense of duty. His life was a constant whirlwind of political maneuvering and royal obligations. However, in the shadows of his princely duties, his heart beat for someone forbidden: Muichiro Tokito, a royal servant known for his unwavering loyalty and serene demeanor.

It all began with a chance encounter in the royal gardens, where Muichiro often sought solace among the cherry blossoms. Their eyes met, and an unspoken bond was forged. Over time, their stolen glances turned into secret conversations, and their feelings blossomed into a love neither could ignore.

Tonight, under the cloak of darkness, Prince Genya sat at his ornate writing desk, his quill poised over a piece of parchment. The flickering candlelight cast dancing shadows across his face as he poured his heart into words.

**Dear Muichiro,**

My heart aches with longing as I write these words, knowing that we must conceal our love from the world. Each moment we share, though fleeting, fills my soul with a joy I have never known.

The thought of you brings me solace amid the chaos of my duties. Your presence is a beacon of light in the darkness of this palace. I yearn to hold you, to be with you without fear of reprisal.

Tonight, let us meet in the grove behind the palace. I will wait for you by the old oak tree, where our love can flourish in the silence of the night.

Yours, always and forever,

Genya

Genya folded the letter with care, sealing it with the royal crest. He summoned a trusted servant, instructing them to deliver the note to Muichiro discreetly.

In the servant's quarters, Muichiro received the letter with a mixture of excitement and trepidation. His heart raced as he read Genya's words, his cheeks flushing with warmth. Without hesitation, he penned his own response.

**My Dearest Genya,**

Your words are a balm to my heart, soothing the ache of our separation. I too feel the weight of our secrecy, but the love we share is worth every moment of fear and uncertainty.

I will meet you by the old oak tree tonight. There, away from prying eyes, we can be together, if only for a short while. Your love gives me strength, and I will cherish every second we have.

With all my love,

Muichiro

As the moon reached its zenith, casting a silvery glow over the palace grounds, Muichiro slipped out of his quarters. He moved with the grace of a shadow, avoiding the watchful eyes of the guards. His heart pounded in anticipation as he approached the grove behind the palace.

There, under the ancient oak tree, stood Prince Genya. His regal bearing was softened by the tender look in his eyes as he saw Muichiro approaching. Without a word, they embraced, the world around them fading into insignificance.

"Muichiro," Genya whispered, his voice filled with emotion. "I've missed you so much."

"And I...you.." Muichiro replied, his voice trembling. "Every moment away from you feels like an eternity."

They held each other close, their hearts beating in unison. Under the canopy of stars, they shared whispered confessions and tender kisses, their love a defiant flame against the constraints of their world.

For this brief moment, they felt like they were truly in love. Until Genya said to Muichiro.

"Would you like to go to the ball with me?"
*Genya said without hesitation*

"Of course I- .... wait but..we cannot be seen like this..we are..a love that the kingdom forbids..a prince and a royal servant cannot be together.."
*Muichiro softly said with a upset tone. He's hands sliding away from Genya*

*But suddenly Genya grabs Muichiro's hand back gently and looked into Mui's eyes with hope*

"But I have a way! You shall go to the ball with me in disguise! You will be disguised as a royal prince yourself! So then my parents would at least approve of you for being the same status! Yes! Please! I love you! Oh so dearly! I can't live without you Tokito!"
*Genya pleaded*

"But are you sure that this will work."
*Muichiro replied with worry*
