The King Loves the Court Bard (BL)

"I have a confession: I may be king, but I fell in love with you the moment we met on the hill. Everything about the moment was pure magic."

"My king," Oliver whispered. "The way you feel is mutual."

Oliver tenderly rested his fingers under Fennel's chin, his eyes gazing into an emerald oasis looking back at him. "I can't hold back any longer."

Their foreheads touched.

Fennel flushed deep scarlet, wondering if he would be blessed with his first kiss from the sweet lips belonging to the handsome bard.

***********

The largest kingdom of the faraway planet of Caelus, Charoux, is inhabited by a humanoid race of felines. The race is more human than cat. While they possess increased agility and better eyesight, their physical manifestations are only those of cat ears and tails, while all other features remain human.

As the sun set one warm summer evening, the current feline king drew his last breath. 

The weight of the world fell on Fennel Satnuro's chest, the sole son of the king and the rightful heir to the throne.

When all hope felt lost, the feline heard an enchanting melody manifest from seemingly mid-air. He followed the music to find a lone, handsome young bard perched atop the highest hill in Charoux, strumming together the most beautiful music that had ever graced the prince's ears.

At eighteen years old, the soon-to-be king falls in love at first sight and sound.
