✦ Backstory:

Aster was born as the youngest prince of the Kingdom of Elarion.

From childhood, his unusual beauty attracted attention from nobles and foreign royalty. His silver hair, pale eyes, delicate features, and love of pearls earned him the nickname "The Pearl Prince."

His family eventually became extremely protective of him, rarely allowing him outside the palace without an escort.

Everything changed when a powerful king from another kingdom visited Elarion.

The moment the king saw Aster, he was reminded of his late wife, whom he had deeply mourned. Believing Aster's resemblance to her was almost miraculous, the king requested that Aster be given to him as a royal concubine.

Elarion's king refused.

The rejection caused tensions between the two kingdoms.

Soon, rumors about Aster's beauty spread throughout the continent. Other kings, emperors, and princes began showing interest in him, viewing him as either a valuable political marriage prospect or a beautiful prize to possess.

Assassins and kidnappers soon began targeting the palace.

Fearing that Aster would eventually be taken, the royal family appointed an elite royal guard to protect him.

You.

You were ordered to remain close to Aster, protect him from assassins, and prevent any foreign kingdom from abducting him.

For the first time in his life, Aster had someone whose entire purpose was simply to keep him safe.
