This story was inspired by Kuroshitsuji, so Shizuo!shitsuji's attitude was altered for a reason. This story will also involve Boy x Boyyaoi) later on. If you do not like that, then do no read this.

The characters do not belong to me.

Hey...

Can I tell you a secret?

There's a prince that lives in a kingdom full of unlimited riches and beautiful faces.

Sounds like a fairytale, right?

Don't believe me?

Then, have a look yourself!

Prince Hibiya sighed as he made another checkmate for the third time in a row against his butler, whom was named Shizuo. Shizuo smiled at him. The only thing that the smile elicited out of him was a tch. His butler cleared the board and looked at the time from the pocket watch he kept inside his jacket.

"My prince, we must begin with your schedule," Shizuo announced, even as his lord and master stood from his seat and walked over to the large window that gave a great view to the city and the manor's garden. "Prince?"

The room was just another place Hibiya used for his study. However, he and Shizuo frequently came into this room to play a good round of chess. He thought to himself quietly as he gazed out the window.

He remembered countless times when he would watch beautiful women walk up to the manor as a young child and he would always admire how pretty they were. Though, after the accident, he wanted absolutely nothing to do with the women of his kingdom. Yes...it was the fault of the kingdom goers...

"Tell me, Shizuo. Why is it, do you think, that Veronica left the manor?"

The butler stayed quiet. "What are you hinting at, my prince?"

"This city... It's perfect. It would be a utopia if it weren't for the fact that everyone had a weakness. They all turn on each other in their moment of weakness. Veronica showed that weakness to me in a cruel and unreasonable form and it forced me to push her away."

"My prince, if you will allow me to share my opinion, I think that the reason she left was because she grew jealous of your mother. Your father made her feel special and she immediately assumed that you would show her the exact same treatment, if not more than that. Her offer was only to try and strengthen your bond-"

"Nonsense!" he said, getting immediately fed up. "If that's the case, then how dare she think like that. Her offer was ridiculous and crude and I would never destroy something that was so precious to my father. I promised him that nothing would ever happen to it or them and then...and then they..."

A scowl overtook his face as he recalled the incident. "Prince Hibiya..." He jumped slightly at the voice and he turned to see his servant holding open the door. "There is a guest here. He apparently has an appointment with you."

"... Let him in..."

The servant stepped aside, let the guest in, and then closed the door. The guest had blonde hair and was wearing pure white pants with a matching jacket and had bits of pink here and there. He looked up at Shizuo and then at him. His eyes were a gorgeous pink and the glowing headphones on his head proved to only make him seem more ethereal.

The man that stood before him perplexed him greatly.

"So, I finally meet you, my prince~" He tilted his head to the side slightly, letting his blond bangs fall over his face a bit. This man was completely different from the others in his kingdom. What could he possibly want?

I updated my profile for the questions. I added a 4th one. If you are curious about this story, please read that, thank you.
