In the prosperous Kingdom of Diamonds, the Queen had her 4th child. Unlike his other siblings, he had messy golden locks, ivory skin and peridot eyes that gleamed as bright as the stars. The most unique thing about him was the mark on his left shoulder, there was a sapphire Spades mark instead of the yellow Diamond. Queen Britannia knew if she wanted to keep her son, she would have to hide his identity or else the Spadians would keep raise him on Spades ground, which she didn`t want. So Prince Arthur Kirkland was hidden from the Kingdoms and only the most trusted families knew of his secret.
Many years passed and the Kingdom remained wealthy and in good trade but they had different royalty. When the King and Queen died at sea, one of the most trusted family`s son, Francis Bonnefoy ascended to the throne. That was only because Arthur`s older brothers refused to bear the responsibility and decided to remain as the Ace and his trusted Soldiers. Arthur was kind of glad that Francis took the throne because as much as he hated the 'Frog', he was happy that the new ruler was someone who he could trust. Despite all these changes, he remained very stunning but he inherited his mother`s quick temper. Also he was considered Tsundere.
Everything was almost perfect in his life as he could read whenever he wanted to and he didn`t have such a big responsibility although he had a sharp and brilliant mind that would be useful for ruling. Arthur would spend days in the library when they allowed him to but other than that, he would spend his time with favourite horse Uni. Uni was a cream mare that was named after his 'imaginary friends' and the best feature about him was the fact that he could talk telepathically to anyone. He was a gift from an old travelling wizard that told him fascinating stories about magic.
His life went on like this until he was 18 when he was called for by 'that bloody frog'. "Bonjour Arthur, Did you have a nice day?" smiled Francis using his innocent face. "Cut the crap, frog, what do you want?" scowled Arthur as he did every other time he spent his time with Francis. "Arthur, you wound me, how can you be so mean to moi?" the taller man exclaimed, acting like Arthur physically wounded his heart. Arthur felt frustrated; he wanted to get this over with as quickly as possible so he could ride Uni around the royal paddock. "Get on with it or else I`m going to actually hurt you." growled the green eyed teen as he placed his hand on his dagger. "No need for that, I was just going to tell you that you are going to go to Spades and marry the King Alfred so we can enforce the Spade-Diamond Pact and they want a Spadian Queen so I told them your secret." Waved off Francis as if the news wasn`t a big deal.
"You`ve got to be kidding me, why would you marry me off like that, you have no right!" shouted Arthur but he was silenced by Diamond`s King. "Arthur, you need to do this, you don`t have a choice and we need this alliance if a war strikes. Get ready, you`re going early tomorrow with dear Helena because she can control her magic and can protect you from harm." ordered Francis in an unusually serious tone. Arthur sighed. His new life awaited him tomorrow and he completely dreaded it.
