And that expected of a king is to love his fate and obey the will of those who have come before him.

Maktub.

It was written. The will of the gods, the fate of the suffer. A prophecy followed by men with an affinity for protection.

It is expected, that he bow before every whim of his citizens and not rule with such an iron clad fist that no one can get through to him.

Perfect.

They expected him to be, but he was not. Susceptible to the lust of a woman, but also to the adrenaline, dangerous passion brings. Gone not, is his love for the rush darkness brings when making love in death defying situations. Love fills his blood, like poison does Cleopatra's. He knew it'd be the last time he'd gaze upon such beauty. It was his destiny to die, expected of him, that didn't mean he was ready to face it. He had been asleep for years ; roused only to be rested yet again.

Things don't away go as planned though. Prepared to accept the burden equally, fingertips crossed paths for the last time. An unspoken feeling passed through the touch of your prince.

You knew this was it. It brought tears to your eyes, but pain lessened as you knew this was the only way to restore balance. As the duties of a king way a heavier burden on the one who is crowned, more than the ones who serve him.

You say a silent prayer as you watch him enter the temple. Using a discarded scrap of clothing to dry crystalline tears, you pray against fate. This would be the last you'd see him,it burned like the cut of a knife against your heart of hearts.

But perhaps you'll meet him the next life.

In fact, it is to be expected.
