Chapter 1
Lorenzo
“It sucks to suck.” Giant, my security consultant, doesn’t seem to care that I’m a goddamn king. “Now, put on the fucking clothes so I can get you to Angel’s place before someone recognizes you.” He points at the well-used outfit sitting on the bathroom counter. After my private jet landed in Silver Spoon Falls, Texas, Giant brought me straight to the small hangar’s bathroom and ordered me to wear the unappealing outfit. Not many people would argue with the guy.
“You can’t talk to the King of Belldonnia like that,” Forrest, my long-time adviser and bodyguard, attempts to step in, but I wave him off.
“Why must I wear that hideous costume?” That’s the best description I can come up with for the outfit. I wouldn’t normally be caught dead wearing such a getup, but these aren’t normal times. Cormac “Giant” Carmichael, my brother’s friend and motorcycle club brother, owns a security firm that contracts with some of the biggest celebrities in the world. When I needed a new firm to consult with my in-house security after a coup attempt, I readily hired the well-connected expert. While I trust Giant with my life, I have tons of reservations about his choice of clothing.
“So you can visit Angel and Milly without an onslaught of paparazzi descending on Silver Spoon Falls.” Fuck my life. I know the security expert is right, but the thought of walking around looking like an unemployed artist makes my skin crawl. I’ve always been known as an unconventional royal, but this is taking things too far.
The fierce look on the huge asshole’s face tells me this is a losing battle. “Fine.” I quickly strip and put on the repulsive clothes while Giant, Forrest, and Logan, my other bodyguard, discuss their plans to keep me hidden while I’m visiting my brother. I splash some cold water on my face, hoping to clear my thoughts.
The last year has been trying. My father, the former King of Belldonnia, had a massive heart attack several months ago, and the doctors urged him to step down. After intense discussions, I accepted my father’s wish to abdicate the throne to me. When my parents bought a small farm in Montana and moved across the ocean, I stepped into my new position expecting a smooth transition of power. Too bad, my father’s younger brother had other ideas.
Sensing a moment of weakness in our family, Uncle Leon attempted to claim the throne for himself, beginning a phase of insecurity within our government.
Our parents wanted us to have some normalcy in our lives. My brother and I both attended local schools in Belldonnia, then came to America for college. The experience helped shape me into the man I am today. Corny as shit but true. I’m determined to change the way things are done. I might be the king, but I’m also a human being. I want my people to see that I share their happiness as well as their disappointments. My bodyguards may hate that I’m approachable. I honestly don’t care.
While I hated the entire four years I lived in America, my brother embraced the American way of life. I returned to Belldonnia immediately after graduation to resume my duties as the crown prince, but my brother chose a completely different path. The fucker moved to Silver Spoon Falls, Texas, joined a motorcycle club, and became a video game designer. As a member of the Silver Spoon MC, he blends in quite well. Hardly anyone realizes he’s royalty.
