There is a story about the Most Charming Duke's son in the whole Luncanter Country. No. His story is shared even in the neighboring country.
About a boy from rags to riches.
He is a son of a prostitute.
Yet he will inherit the most powerful Dukesdome in the country.
But it is not why he is charming.
Is it because of his looks?
It adds to the Charm.
But it spreads that time.
The Duke Frost was a well beloved Duke in Luncanter.
Because of the King, The Duke was sentenced to be put to jail without even holding a proper investigation or procedures.
Just lock him up after the King invited him to the palace.
It was so suspicious that all the citizens feared the ruthlessness of the King.
And feared for the beloved Duke's life.

Everyday the people will stand outside the palace shouting and they all are pleading for the Duke's release.

An old woman stumbles in the road.
She is exhausted but she keeps shouting and crying.
That time, the carriage stops and the young Duke's son jumps out the carriage so fast.

"Grandma! Are you alright?"

The old woman's wrinkled face stares at the Duke's young face.

"My Duke….My Duke you are freed?"

Miguelito shakes his head.
"I am not the Duke Grandma."

"Uhhh….Oh...Your Grace! What will happen to the Duke….The Duke…" the old woman tears up.

Finally the soldiers help the old woman up.

Miguelito looks at everyone.
"Father will be alright. He will be… So everyone, please go home, rest and eat properly." He said.

"But the Duke…" the old woman softly shakes her head.

Miguelito holds her hand.
"Father will be sad if you get sick Grandma, so don't cry anymore."

"Your father helped my husband and my son to find a cure to their illness. This is the least I can do." She said trembling.

Miguelito takes off his expensive coat and drapes it on the old woman's shoulder.

"Grandma, don't worry. Father is not weak."

The Grandma holds Miguelito's two hands tightly and she bows her head.
"Young Duke, you resemble the Duke so much..Wuuu….This old woman….is happy to meet you in her life."

Muguelito frowns.
He kisses the old woman's hand despite it being dirty.
"And I am happy to meet you too, Grandma."

"Princess?"

"Who is he?" The little girl with her unique red hair and white eyes stares at the boy who once again boarded the carriage and leaves.

"That is Duke's Frost Son Miguelito Frost, Princess."

"He is so kind." The princess shyly lowers her hood.
She has always been aware of how peculiar her eyes are. People called her eyes cursed.
"If it's him….Will he not call me cursed?"

The maid gasps.
"Princess…"

The little girl smiles timidly.
"Let's hurry. We have to go back before people notice us."

"Yes Princess." The maid nods.
Then she looks back.
'If it's that boy, will he be able to make the princess laugh?'
