Yandere Prince X Magical Reader

Tea

With you on his arm, Prince Ace heads to the royal dinning hall.
It would be just the two of you for this early breakfast.

Grimm, who had been posted at the door to wait for the both of you,  opens it to allow the two of you to walk in.
Immediately, you were hit with an amazing smell.
Sweet, strong and...
Familiar?

The Prince pulls out a seat for you. "Here, sit. I'd like to speak with you over breakfast."
His face was still a bit red, but he seems to have calmed down during the walk here.
Sitting down, you finally look at the dinner table. There were two plates for both of you, as well as very fragile looking porcelain tea cups.
However, no food was yet on the table. Which means that the scent could only be from the porcelain tea pot sitting at the center.

As the Prince takes his own seat, you decide to start right away.
"What was it you wanted to speak to me about?"
He smiles and waves off your question. "Come now, we haven't eaten yet. Let's at least get our food first."
With that, maids bring in multiple trays, full of food.

Eggs cooked in all ways, fresh fruit, biscuits, French toast. There was quite a bit of food, especially for only the two of you.
Though you were hesitant, he dug in right away, a content smile over his face as he placed food on his plate.
Deciding to follow suit, you place a few pieces of French toast on your plate.
You've always wondered why it was called that, though. What is a French? What part of it is in the toast?
Perhaps one day you should find a recipe and find out for yourself.

Taking a bite, you're pleased with the flavors. It was much better then Cherri's attempts.
Whatever a French was, it was certainly delicious.
You notice the Prince watching you fondly.
"I see you're enjoying your breakfast. Are you particularly fond of pain perdu?"
Pain perdu? Was that what fancy people called it?
Now a bit less nervous, you nod happily and straighten your posture. "So, what was it you wanted?"

"Hm.." He swallows the food he had in his mouth before turning to you.
"You see, I'm sure you're aware how important the flower festival is. But I'm not certain that you know how important you are to the flower festival."

"Huh?" You let out, not really understanding.
He doesn't respond right away, instead he signals for Grimm to pour the two of you some tea. As the butler does so, the Prince continues to eat.
Once he's done pouring your cup, you make sure to thank Grimm. He smiles in response.

Ace takes a sip of his tea before continuing.
"Its not just your magic that's important. Though that's definitely not a downside."
Not sure what he's talking about just yet, you carefully pick up your tea cup and take a sip.
Its nothing like the cups back home. Sure, Granny had a few fancy ones, but this one was just way too detailed for normal usage.
It made it feel like you were holding a delicate sacred item or something.
Hold it too tight and it'll crack.
"Its more so you.. as who you are that's important to me. After all, everybody in your quaint little village knows magic." He glances down at the liquid in his cup fondly. "But I chose you specifically."
You bring the cup up to your lips again, but stop as you notice something floating in it. You investigate the object as he explains more.
"It wasn't immediate, really. It took me a few days to realize. But those few days were all that was necessary.."
Its a.. Flower? A tea flower?
But this is a..
"All of that time in the village was necessary for me to know for sure"
Amaryllis
He smiles and leans back in his chair.
"That I was in love with you."

You stand up suddenly, but find your legs to be too weak to hold you. Knees hitting the ground, you let out a weak yelp upon impact.
Grimm, startled, rushes to your side to try and assist you.
"Grimm. Step back." Ace says in a tone meant to reprimand his butler.
Grimm looks up at him, obviously acknowledging his tone.
However, the brunette doesn't move from you, staying by your side.
Seeing his assistants lack of obedience, he glares.
"Fine then." He declares before turning back to his meal. "Take Grimm to his quarters." A guard approaches Grimm, grabbing the back of his shirt to lift him up. Though he held onto you, he wasn't a man known for his strength. As he was yanked away towards the exit, he raised his voice at the Prince. "This isn't how you said this would happen! What have you done?!" Despite Grimms attempts, he was dragged away, kicking all the way. Ace simply turns to another guard, stating plainly. "He is not to be allowed out until after the ceremony."
The guard nods before following after his fellow soldier.

You try and hold yourself up with your arms, however they quickly give out.
Your head spinning made your body's lack of cooperation even worse.
Trying your best to move in some way, you attempt to sit up again, only to find it impossible.
You hear the Princes chair scrape across the floor as he stood up, followed by an amused chuckle.
You feel a hand placed against your back, rubbing it in an attempt of comfort.
Head throbbing, you close your eyes on the spinning room, letting your consciousness fall.

The Prince's calm, darkly affectionate voice was the last thing you heard before it all went dark.
"Even like this, you look so beautiful.."
