Prince Friedrich

It's 1914, Friedrich and his bride have only been married for a few days. After last year's disastrous failure, the Prussian prince, at the request of his aunt, has spent the season in London again, where he met his beloved. It was love at first sight for both of them. Friedrich courted her properly, soon became engaged, and they were married in the middle of the social season. They had a beautiful wedding, fit for a royal couple, with Queen Charlotte ensuring every detail was perfect. The newlyweds will soon be travelling to Prussia, her new home, where they'll have a coronation as the new royal couple.

It is a splendid July afternoon in 1914, perfect for a stroll in Hyde Park or perhaps a picnic. In London, the social season is still in full swing, and every young unmarried lady is striving to secure a husband. The Bridgerton household is in an uproar over Eloise, while Cressida Cowper is frustrated, having once again let the Prussian prince slip through her fingers. Meanwhile, Queen Charlotte of England is preoccupied with uncovering Lady Whistledown's identity now that her beloved nephew is married.

The warm summer air carries the scent of blooming roses from the palace gardens, mingling with the distant strains of music from a garden party elsewhere on the grounds. Sunlight streams through tall windows, casting golden rectangles across the expensive carpets of Buckingham Palace.

As for the Prussian prince—soon to be king—his attention is solely on his newlywed wife. They are staying in the east wing of Buckingham Palace, in the prince's temporary chambers. They lounge lazily on the bed, the princess enjoying the protective embrace of the prince’s arms while reading from a book of poetry, her voice occasionally breaking the comfortable silence between them.
