How's it going, everybody? Now I'll be honest; I don't know what I was doing writing this. Honestly, I wish there were more stories that paired Elsword and Eve together as a queen and her knight. And really I just wanted to take my mind off my other story in progress atm. Anyway, R/R and enjoy this little story! Disclaimer: I don't own Elsword or any characters from it.

Elsword's POV

My Queen. My world. My life.

"Your highness, it is time to wake up."

My love.

"Your highness, it is morning."

But what am I….

"Your highness."

But a lowly knight?

I reached over, nudging Queen Eve gently, hearing a small moan escape her lips. I felt my heart stop momentarily, but then found the courage to nudge her again. This time, her eyes winced slightly, before opening and revealing the beautiful golden orbs that lay hidden behind a pale complexioned face.

"Mmm…," the queen moaned, sitting up and stretching her arms. I took a step back, then made my way over to her curtains. I could hear the shuffling of her bedsheets as I opened the blinds, being greeted with happy sunshine as I heard my queen ask, "…Where is Ophelia?"

"Ophelia was needed earlier," I replied, "I was asked by her to wake you up in her place."

"Ah, I see," Eve replied, her soft footsteps behind me heading for her dresser. I resisted the urge to turn around and look at her beautiful body, opting to look outside instead as I heard one drawer slide open. I could slowly feel my face begin to heat up as I heard it shut. I then heard the shuffling of clothing as I leaned against the window frame, staring out to the city. The townsfolk were already stirred and moving about; the bread man throwing extra loafs on a barrel outside his bakery, Rena walking around with her flower donation cart, Raven making his daily rounds in the castle courtyard, and even my sister, Elesis, already up and training the new regiment of knights.

"Elsword."

I flinched upright at the sound of my name.

"Would you know where Oberon is?"

"No, your majesty," I replied, realizing that Ophelia could've just as easily asked him to wake up the queen. Now that I think about it, I hadn't seen him all morning. It suddenly seemed…very suspicious.

"Also," Eve spoke up again, "Why do you stare out the window?"

"Eh?"

I made to turn around, but then caught myself and remained in position.

"B-b-because," I stammered, "I-I, a knight, h-have no right to watch you change your clothing, your highness!"

"Elsword…."

I felt my face heating up again.

"I've been finished for a while now."

"Eh?"

I turned around, indeed confirming that my queen was fully clothed. I let out a mental sigh of relief, as well as a big fat smack in the face at not being able to watch Eve change. Regardless, I was a knight. Nothing more. Nothing less.

"Thank you," Eve stated, causing me to look at her, confused. She proceeded to walk up to me, her golden orbs staring through my very being, causing me to grow a little nervous. I felt my stomach clench up slightly as she continued, "For keeping me company all this time."

"O-oh," I replied, slightly disappointed, "It's my pleasure, your highness."

And if there weren't enough ways that the queen could stop my heart, I swear I would've fainted right then and there.

Queen Eve's lips slowly curled up into a smile.

My world suddenly stopped.

I blinked, comprehending that she was smiling at me. Smiling at me. The queen was smiling at me.

I felt my heart skip a beat as my head suddenly began spinning. I kept my feet firmly planted on the ground as she reached up and caressed my cheek, leaning towards me and kissing my cheek. I blinked, feeling my face heat up immediately as she followed up with a whisper in my ear.

"My dear knight."

"Y…y-yes, your highness!"

I quickly glanced away, trying to conceal my blush as the queen left her quarters. However, she stopped just before her door, her hand on the doorknob, as I began having wild fantasies. I then faintly heard her saying something along the lines of, "Leaving," and "Training."

"Good afternoon, Elsword."

I turned, seeing Raven and Rena walking up to me.

"Good afternoon," I replied, bowing as my senior knight immediately looked at me in disdain. I blinked in confusion as he looked me up and down, causing me to glance at Rena's now empty flower cart. However, right before I could ask her, Raven stated, "You should probably dress up more appropriately, though I'm not sure if you could improve your outfit any more than it already is…."

"Huh?"

I looked up, seeing both of them staring at me expectantly.

"U…umm…what…?"

"You forgot already?"

Rena scoffed, snaking her arm around Raven's mechanical arm. I looked blankly to the sky, watching a few clouds fly over. I then blinked, closing them just as quickly as I put a finger on my chin, trying to remember what was so significant about today. I probably had something to do with the castle…probably why Ophelia was so busy this morning. Also, the absence of Oberon was also a bit worrying; I haven't seen him all day.

"Elsword," Rena stated, "Today's the day of Queen Eve's engagement with the prince of Hamel."

"Oh," I replied, "That's it, huh."

Ah, right. Eve's proposal day.

I nodded, finally remembering what I had forgotten.

…wait a second….

I opened my eyes, widening them as I slowly comprehended the date.

A…are…are you….

"HOOLLLYY CRAAAAP!"

Raven and Rena both cringed as I began panicking.

"Th-that's today!? No way! How could I have forgotten!?"

"Elsword, calm down."

I froze and slowly began turning, facing my older sister, Elesis.

"Seriously," she scoffed, "You overreact over these little things."

I then felt her tap my head, her hand balled into a fist as she raised her hand. I could hear the clinking of armor, causing me to look behind her to see her new regiment-in-training, leaving me a little impressed at how quickly she had gained their trust. Elesis promptly turned around on her heel, stomping on the ground as Raven walked up to me, placing a hand on my shoulder. I glanced at him, then back to Elesis as she yelled, "Atten-TION!"

The sound of boots stomping on the ground filled the air as Raven walked up to her and said, "Well…nice work."

"Thank you," Elesis replied, clearing her throat before stating, "This is Raven. He will be your captain."

"Yes ma'am!"

The regiment promptly saluted as Raven returned the gesture. I followed suit, hearing some chitter chatter begin to break out in the ranks. I glanced at Elesis, who sighed and muttered, "Thought this was gonna happen…."

She stomped on the ground again, causing all of us, including Rena behind us, to flinch in surprise as she stated, "Quit gossiping! By the love of the queen, you guys are worse than a group of noble women complaining about their husbands!"

The regiment suddenly went silent as Elesis patted her hands together and said, "There! That's better! Now then…."

Elesis's hand suddenly landed on my shoulder, catching my attention.

"This is my younger brother, Elsword. He doesn't look like it, but he's your second captain. Even if he doesn't look the part, he's the queen's most trusted knight, as well as Raven's right hand man. If you have any questions when either Raven or I are unavailable, he's your next man. Understood?"

"Yes ma'am!"

Just as quickly, they all saluted me, catching me off guard a bit. However, quickly regaining my composure, I saluted them back as Elesis motioned for Rena to move forward. The elf flinched in surprise, quickly obeying as Elesis continued, "This here's Rena; the head of the archer division. She's after Elsword."

"Yes ma'am!"

"Ugh…man…," I sighed, feeling utterly exhausted after the, persay, "lengthy" training session with Raven. It wasn't that we were basically on par with each other physically; the parrying was the easy part. However, just trying to land a blow on him was difficult in itself considering said man had a mechanical arm courtesy of Eve.

"Elsword?"

I flinched, immediately turning around to greet the queen, Eve.

"G-good afternoon, your highness," I replied, bowing to her. However, I was replied with her grabbing my cheeks, bringing my face back up to hers as she blinked. I blinked as well as she smiled, causing my heart to stop momentarily as she said, "You need not call me 'your highness,' Elsword."

"N-no! I-it's only proper for me to call you 'your highness,' your highness," I stammered, quickly glancing away out of her grasp. Queen Eve simply blinked again, causing me to turn and point my back to her. I couldn't help but notice the slight burning feeling in my chest, catching my surprise as Eve's footsteps filled the hall behind me. I then noticed arms wrap around my body, nearly causing me to jump out of my skin as Eve muttered, "…My knight…."

"Y…your…highness…," I muttered, feeling her grip grow a little tighter. I blinked, then jumped in surprise when the sound of footsteps filled the air. I glanced left, then right, seeing the maids' shadows running to and fro, some carrying what looked like flower bouquets, others like cakes for the feast that was surely going to happen afterwards. I couldn't help but sigh, feeling a little depressed as I slipped out of the queen's grasp, turning and dropping down to one knee as I said, "I…I'll never leave your side…your highness."

Queen Eve simply blinked at me as I stood back up, then proceeded to close her eyes, letting out a sigh. I flinched at the action, immediately believing I had done something wrong as she suddenly looped her arms around my neck and whispered, "You are my knight…Elsword."

I felt the air get taken out of me.

This woman.

My queen.

"Y…Your h…highness…?"

"My knight," she whispered in my ear again, causing my breath to hitch as footsteps filled the hallway, causing adrenaline to spike in my body. A shadow began walking toward the hall, causing me to glance left and right again, hearing Elesis's familiar voice talking to Raven. Out of instinct, I picked the queen up and bolted for the opposite direction, turning and narrowly avoiding Oberon, who had long since returned from his trip to Hamel.

"Sorry Oberon!"

The butler simply watched me run past with the queen in hand, suddenly pulling out his weapons to my dismay.

"The queen is being kidnapped," the usually silent butler declared, "Must rescue."

And just like that, he was on us. Here I am, trying to avoid getting turned to ribbons as the now mad butler continued swinging his sword at me with all intent to try and kill me. Eve, however, sighed, causing me to skid to a stop as she stood on her feet and said, "Oberon, stand down."

I turned around just in time to see the tip of a blade pointed right between my eyes, causing me to freeze fear as Oberon pulled his blade back, sheathing it. He gave us a quick bow as Eve exchanged quick words with him. The butler simply bowed at us again, nodded at me in an apologetic fashion, then went on with his business. I let out a sigh of relief, then saw the two drones, Remy and Moby circling my head, causing me to freeze again as they both stared at me with evil intentions.

"Elsword," the queen stated, turning around to face me, "Please do not do that again."

"V-very well, your highness," I replied, letting out another mental sigh of relief as the two drones flew on their way. I then glanced at Eve, who was beckoning me to follow her. With no choice, I followed the queen as she led us towards the throne room, dreading what was to happen the moment we were to arrive.

At the door stood Ophelia with Ferdinand, both of whom were dressed up nicely. I looked at them both then felt a nudge on my arm, turning to face Raven, who was looking at me expectantly. I nodded at him, exchanging silent words with him as the two servants at the door opened it, revealing a beautiful hall with the vast majority of the townsfolk. I swallowed some spit out of nervousness, then heard Elesis whisper, "It'll be fine. You just have to stand there after all."

"Right," I replied as she was quick to take the lead and announced, "Welcome to Velder Castle! We would like to thank each and every one of you for joining us in this joyful day in which Velder and Hamel will unite! And now, Queen Eve!"

All went silent as Eve began to walk forward.

Raven followed shortly after, as did I, as we walked down the aisle to the throne. I immediately took notice of another man, dressed up in way more armor than I could ever dream of wearing, as Eve took her seat. Raven went to stand on one side of her as I did the same on the opposite, watching as the townsfolk began talking amongst each other. There was another moment of silence as Elesis raised her hand, then stated, "And we welcome thee, Prince Chung Seiker of Hamel!"

The crowd began applauding for what seemed like forever as the man in armor walked forward, bowing to the townsfolk. Some ladies even swooned as he began walking towards the throne, where Eve sat, waiting for him. It was then that I noticed how young and composed he was, causing me to shiver and feel the same familiar burn in my chest from earlier. I winced slightly, holding back my inner despair as he kneeled before Eve and said, "Your highness…Queen Eve…it is truly an honor to be marrying you."

"And I to you," Eve stated, standing up. I watched helplessly as she walked up to him and beckoned for him to raise his head. I forced myself to keep my eyes on them, watching as she extended her hand to him, prince Chung taking it tenderly and kissing the back of it.

…Oh…god….

I could feel the heat rising to my face. I could feel my eyes growing a little watery as I finally tore my eyes off of them, covering my mouth. Raven immediately took notice, glancing at me as I felt my stomach begin turning.

Oh…god…!

"Is something wrong?"

"I…," I replied, "think…I'm getting…sick…!"

Raven raised an eyebrow as the crowd suddenly began screaming cheers. I glanced back to them, seeing that Chung had stood up and taken my queen's lips. All the contents in my stomach suddenly began making their way upwards. Without warning, I took off to the nearest restroom, hearing Raven and Elesis calling for me in vain.
