He was the king...
She was the queen!
He ruled the kingdom...
She ruled him!
He told others what to do...
She tells him what to do!
So... Who's really in charge???
King Felipe Hudson the current ruler of Windsor kingdom was given the hand of princess Kara Steelheart in marriage. It wasn't a marriage of love but of unity on the surface but with a hidden meaning of power. Both kingdoms wanted something from each other. Kara's kingdom was female dominated and they were mainly warriors... Battle freaks! They lived and died for it, it was the air in their lungs and the fire in their hearts. They wanted a cover but not in need of it although other kingdoms looked down on them because they were women and refused to work with them. But they never said it to their faces... Every kingdom was scared of them because they were crazy... "Crazy bitches!" They called them but they didn't mind cos it struck fear into their hearts but that wasn't the only reason. The other reason being that they had burnt down a whole kingdom that had tried to take advantage of them and took their men hostage after killing the king and his entire bloodline. They stuck his dead body on a stake, standing before the gates to his kingdom in only his under garment and a small dagger stuck to the middle of his forehead.
That action alone made every kingdom fear
and stay out of their way. And those that had similar thoughts had a rethink and took three steps back, no body wanted any trouble but at the same time didn't want to acknowledge that they were stronger. They really wanted them for their selves especially the perverse men of each kingdom seeing that they were indeed very beautiful with very tempting bodies and so little clothing but they were still kept to themselves.
Now on the part of the Windsor kingdom, they had a hidden agenda... One that was advised by the king's closest friend and advisor. Baldwin has been close to the king since they were kids. They practically did everything together and knew each others secrets. Both were very educated and intelligent but at the end only royalty could ascend the throne and so things they always did together had to be done by one person alone. Hudson had to rule the kingdom while Baldwin had to remain as the ruled. So he made a plan and used one of his old tricks, manipulation...
He was a master of this art and have pulled it on Hudson more times than he can count and as a friend who trusted his friend he followed all his directions and ended up exactly where he wanted him to be. Hudson was too trusting of his friend Baldwin who he believes have always been there for him even when his parents were emotionally unavailable for him. He trusted him to a fault and wasn't able to read between the lines because he was already blinded by his friendship. It was through this way that he got himself into the position of power, the king's special advicer. Through this he glued himself to the king and knew every tiny thing that goes on in the castle, even more than the owner himself. Baldwin knew more about the kingdom than the king himself and the praises he got from the people was gradually getting into his head that the jealousy he had had for Hudson which he tried very hard to surpress in order not to feel inferior was resurfacing and at a very fast rate.
He was smart but Hudson was smarter. He was intelligent but Hudson was more so. He wasn't exactly brave but Hudson was although the risks he'd rather not do. He was handsome... But next to Hudson he faded like the night when the sun came out. All these made him to hatch a devious plan of dethroning and eliminating the king. And in place of him, he Baldwin will slither his way to the throne. He wasn't always like this but the way Hudson's father would look down on him when they were just kids like one unworthy of being in the same place as his son just because he didn't have royal blood flowing in his veins and that was the genesis of his love hate relationship with Hudson. He would be royalty one day and he'd show them and so from a young age evil was already planted in his heart and he grew up with it, using Hudson's mother's lack of attention for his son to slip into the gap created because she was too busy seeking for the attention of her husband who had little to no time for her. Baldwin got to see the true nature of the king's son who was hurting but kept it to himself but the thought of hurting his friend disturbed him regardless of how much he tried to push it out. Hudson was his only friend who was better than him in everything except being cunny and evil. But he couldn't stop even if he wanted to, he was way in too deep to stop and so did his plan of getting Hudson married to the daughter from a battle freak nation come in mind.
Baldwin already had supporters who'd do anything for him but he needed a force no one will dare mess with that will stand by his side... His cunny mind got to work.
A gentle and sweet girl, royalty that he can use...
