On their wedding night, she gnashed her teeth, yelling, “Your Highness, that’s shameless!”

Set off by the flickering light of red candles, he curved the corner of his mouth into a wicked grin, “Actually, I can be more shameless…”

When they met for the first time, he was the young prince who lived in his day of brilliance, while she was the pampered princess of the adjacent state.
