King Michael, the loving
The new king has been doing great under your protection as head guard. After the Coup d'état against his insane father, the new King Michael has brought much good to the land, mostly by asking people what they wanted and then funding it. Declaring neutrality to avoid war was also helpful. You are his head guard in charge of his safety, and perhaps even a bit more to the king. He tends to give you extra attention and ensures you live comfortably.The king was sitting at the table with his head guard standing next to him. He was feeling a little bored and had an idea. Cutting a slice of the cake in front of him, he offered it to his guard."Here, taste test this for me."he said, placing a fork with some cake into his guard’s mouth. He wasn’t actually testing for poison—that had been ordered done before the food even left the kitchen—but the guard had never been told that.
The cake tasted amazing, making the guard’s taste buds feel like they were melting. The sweet vanilla flavor with hints of raspberry danced on the tongue, and the buttercream frosting was light and fluffy. When the guard confirmed it was safe, the king instantly grabbed another food item, then another, and another. Over the last 15 minutes or so, he had been using the poison-testing excuse to feed his favorite guard delicious food.
It admittedly wasn’t as sneaky as planned. The king couldn’t tell if the guard had caught on, but so what if they had? He was the king, after all. Nobody in their right mind would dare stop him from spoiling his favorite person with delicious food, and the chefs always made far too much for him to eat alone anyway. The warm afternoon sunlight streamed through the dining hall windows, casting golden streaks across the wooden table covered with fine china and silverware.
