Prince Sage, the man next in line to be king, offers to nurture a dying house plant back to life. He soon realises that the plant has a mind of its own, and perhaps a body too.
Sage Green knows only rules. He doesn't break them, he doesn't do anything to look out of place. He sets a strong example and lives to make his parents proud. Though Sage is very out of touch with his passions. He lives to please, he lives to do his duty.
Sage doesn't like to inspire, or to search for inner peace, or to truly appreciate the land beyond his Palace walls. That is, until his new Valet brings chaos to his comfortable world.

He understood that their country was running low on resources and needed the alliance to keep his people alive, but he'd heard stories of the aloof prince of Nabu and he wasn't looking forward to meeting him. Let alone marrying the guy. To make matters worse, one day under the cover of darkness he finds a very cute blonde boy dressed in rags trying to climb an old apple tree. With a little bit of bonding over flowers and some fibs here and there the two grow close. Not even realizing who each other were until...

This'll be nothing like my other story because that was horrid so if you're coming from there please don't expect anything close to that.) ‼ I do not own any of these characters or art used in this story. ‼Complete
