The High King's Golden Tongue (Love is Always Write)

He was sent to be the consort for the high king. Allen is a prince taught in the arts of diplomacy and politics but not fighting. The high king is a warrior and his dead lover was his first general. He does not want anyone who cannot wield a sword as well and only fight with words. That’s just not someone that he wants to help him raise his children. So when Allen is presented before him, the high king does not chose him to be his next consort. What is a rejected consort to do? Allen cannot return home, since he was sent to cement a treaty between his kingdom and the one of the high king. The army is hiring and Allen asks to be a part of the next expedition, to train to be a warrior and tries to forget the king, who rejected him, without knowing him. Can those two come to together and find love?
