The one i loved so

in a world befor time when magic amd mystical creatures existed hi my name is maria and im an aspiring writer and sadly a princess you might think being royalty is easy but its really not i dont get any privacy and im never allowed outside until one day someone new came to the castle his name was markus he was always so kind and caring he would tell me stories of the outside whenever he came by soon we became close friends and whenever he came to the castle it felt like a breath of fresh air but something horrible happened but only after that incident i noticed i loved him
