Lenna wished she had never thought such things when first she laid eyes on Faris.

Though they had started their relationship with her as Faris's prisoner, there was something dashing about that noble face, imposing lithe form, and flowing violet hair. Faris seemed like a figure from a fairy tale, one of those dashing figures who could sweep any girl off her feet. Lenna's cheeks burned red at the thought of the pirate's hands cupping her face, staring into her very soul before coming in for a passionate kiss. Some days she imagined it would be a fine thing to remain at Faris's side even once they had saved the world, the two of them together, like a princess and a pirate in a romance novel.

Of course, when they had discovered Faris was a woman in disguise, that made things—awkward. It was a difficult thing for the sheltered young princess to process, because her attraction did not fade with this knowledge.

The more she got to know Faris, the more Lenna liked her, for she was unlike any other woman she had ever met. No wonder the rough and tough pirates accepted her as leader despite her gender: she was charismatic, clever, and impossibly gorgeous. And as time bore on, Lenna was certain she was falling in love with her, even though she had never been in love before. What else could it be? Her heart raced at the thought of those lips on her own and their bodies crushed together in a lover's clinch. When the two of them were alone, there was a great tension in the air, at least for the rose-haired princess.

And then, the worst of it came. She could accept being in love with another woman. But when said woman turns out to be your long-lost older sister… Well, there were some things even Lenna could not overlook.

Perhaps it would be wise to make sure there were no other lost members of the Tycoon royal family before moving on with her love life.
