DISCLAIMER: unfortunately, I do not own Kaichou wa Maid-sama
Prologue
There was an infamous rumour amongst travellers: "if you were to meet the first princess of the Southern Kingdom, you will be eternally cursed to live a life of damnation." Rumour has it that she is the reincarnation of Medusa, with hideous features and snakes in place of her hair that can curse onlookers. Others say she was cursed at a young age to live with a heart as dark and black as the abyss itself. Many speculate on how an angelic queen can bear and raise such a barbaric child. However, those whom work for the royal family knows that although the princess may seem ruthless, she is in fact a capable person. When the king had mysteriously disappeared one night, the kingdom soon fell into a state of poverty. Fathers became unemployed and turned to relinquish their angers upon their wives. The princess was the one whom took the matters of the state onto herself and revert the kingdom to its previous state. She stood up for the abused female and became adored by those of her own gender while men cower at her mere presence.
Usui Takumi, the handsome young king of the Northern Kingdom. In his reign, he made his already prosperous country even wealthier, gaining the trust of all his people. It is said that his abilities in politics and combat are above those of humanity. Women swoon over him, yet he has never shown an interest to any women before.
The two rulers were the polar opposites of one another; therefore, when rumours spread of their engagement to each other, there was a mass uproar. It was a political marriage: the Southern Kingdom would gain the stability they needed whereby the Northern Kingdom would acquire more land. The people feared that if that marriage was to break, there would be war: "King Usui would never be attracted to such an atrocious princess. The marriage won't last!" Hearing the complaints of the commoners, it was then decided that the princess would stay in the Northern castle for a short period of time to see if the two are truly unfit for one another. If one of the two parties decided to call off the union, the relationship between the two kingdoms will remain as is. And thus, the story begins.
