I am king now.

Of course, I've been for a while, but I rule the kingdom now! I decide the rules, I decide the punishments, I decide who I'm with.

Five years ago, if you told me I would act like a complete fool because I'm in love with someone, I would punch you. Hard.

I've always been good with compressing feelings I know can never become something more, but not this time.

It started after the curse I got into, being in love with Vivian.

To get me out of it, my true love had to kiss me. I remember that everyone kissed me just in case. All knights, Gwen, Merlin, even some maids. Half an hour after the kissing, I blacked out and woke up to a broken curse. I don't know who broke it, but I'd like to find out.

My feelings for this servant, just a servant, really, grew after that. I realised how much I actually loved him when I was under controlled love for Vivian. Now that I'm king, I can actually be with him.

Yes, him.

Under my father's rule, we would both be executed. Under my rule, I will not call it a sin.

Falling for a servant was enough for my father to freak out. Falling for a servant boy would make him call up a war against all magic again.

Falling for my manservant, was hard. I saw him every day, he was close every day, dressed me, brought me my food, he was everywhere.

Falling for Merlin, that was my biggest mistake so far.

Okay, so. Mordred is not bad, Merlin's father died a year before, Gwen and Lancelot is together, and so on.

Just bear with me. I know many things I write is out of contest and at the wrong time, but so be it.
