[F4M] True Love’s Curse — The Goblin who Married a King
Once upon a time, a King was born in the gutter, with nothing. No title, no wealth, not even a name. By the time he was twenty five, he had created a kingdom from what had previously been dozens of warring, disorganized tribes, and led a military force so strong, neighboring countries were forced to extend the hand of kinship to this upstart.
However, they showed him little in the way of respect, and thus, his people suffered. His nation was not a powerful one, and many saw him as a fraudulent King, his kingdom as a disgrace.
However, when the astonishingly beautiful daughter of perhaps the most powerful nation in all the land fell for the King, that changed everything. Their support offered the new nation the allyship it needed to grow and develop. It was a true love match, and the King and Princess had never been happier. Though they suffered many trials and tribulations together, they were soon married, after the Princess managed to break a curse that had been placed upon the King through her devotion.
Unfortunately, scarcely a year after the wedding, something shocking happened. A sorcerer appeared at the Princess’ birthday ball, with an identical lady in tow, claiming the Princess to be an imposter. He cast a spell, and the Princess’ true form was revealed— an ugly, piggish goblin, too vile to look at, never mind love. The goblin was kept in the dungeons if her home nation for months, and eventually sentenced to be exiled into the forest, among the other creatures. The wealthy nation ordered that, should she ever return, she was to be executed.
However, despite everything, the King knew that the goblin would not survive those woods, and remembered clearly how she had sworn that she hadn’t known, that it was a mistake. Those words kept him up each night, and he knew one truth— he couldn’t just leave his wife to die in the woods. He went after the awful creature, tracked it down… and offered it protection, in exchange for becoming a slave in his summer palace.
