In a kingdom far far away is a story about a king falling in love with a commoner. The kingdom was known for the king, because he was very loving and would do anything for his subjects. He had been married for about 10 years. Unfortunately she caught the fever and died. The king was forty five and knew that he had to. When he was out for a walk in his kingdom right in the busy streets of the city was a young girl there, her eyes a deep brown, her hair matched her eyes. Her body so sweet, people knew the king and bowed, she smiled looking into his eyes. She had seen him at least a few times a week. Finally she got the courage to go up to the king and bowed.

"Sire' she said softly.

(Open for someone to take the king)
 
He took a look at her, at least she was formal and polite. "What can I do for you miss?"
 
She smiled happily and bowed a bit to show her respect "Sire its an honor for you to be amoung your people, I hope all is well"
 
He smiles a bit. "It's great my subjects like having me about. Sorry for cutting this short, but I have a meeting to go to." With no further words he heads back to the castle.
 
She smiled but noticed someone following him until finally she knew it was an assassin she ran right to the king seeing him stop she stood in front of the king. "Want the king you go through me you stupid ass" The assassin sighed and went right for her but she moved slightly and grabbed the guys hand breaking it and and kicked him down, she looked at him. "Think it would be wise sire if I escorted you" She said kindly.
 
He looks at her, then the assasin. "Yes, I believe so. I didn't get your name, what is it?" He smiles as they continue.
 
She smiled looking at him "My name....is Hope" She said softly as she walked beside him. "If I wasn't a woman id more likely be one of your knights" She said softly a grin on her face.
 
He smiles softly. "Why would you want to be a knight? Come, you'll be my guest of honor, and maybe soon my queen."
 
She chuckled "I can fight just as well as a man can" She said with her head held up high but then was surprised when he said "Queen"
 
He smiles. "Well yes, I can see that. Maybe you should train the knights."
 
She smiled "Sire I don't think any man would listen to me, except maybe you" She said softly and sighed a bit
 
She blushed when he kissed her and nodded "Maybe not many have ever seen me fight, I could...I dunno have them attack me"
 
He smiles seeing her reaction. "come, my servents will see you to your room and I will be there shortly." He motions a few over and heads to his meeting.
 
She did as he asked and went into the room, she sat down on the window seat and sighed happily, a smile on her face. She heard the door open a little bit later and smiled looking down and bowed as the ladies did and smiled. "Sire" She said looking up at him.
 
He smiles softly, dismissing the girls. After they left, he sat beside her. "Kou is the name, feel free to use it." His usual fire was gone, facing the grim news of the meeting.
 
She nodded some "You have gotten news that has upset you" She said softly "May I ask what it was?, maybe I can help" She said happily.
 
He nods. "I must have a queen by the end of the week or lose the kingdom"
 
She looked down "Sire im sorry" She said softly "Ive heard they have shown you who you should marry, but you do not feel anything for her do you" She said softly. "Makes me wish I was a nobility"
 
He looks at her. "I am allowed to marry who I see fit, this was passed by my father, who married a commoner. You are something special."
 
She sighed some "At least someone thinks im special" She said softly, looking into his eyes again. "Im alone, I have no family they all died, no one has ever said such things about me"
 
She looked at him "Why offer me such an honor sire you don't even know me"
 
He smiles softly. "You stopped an assassin, where the rest did nothing. You deserve the honor."
 
She was surprised looking at him a smile on her face and sighed "Alright, I'll do it" She smiled.
