I don't own Koei or Dynasty Warriors...
This is a Valentines' Day fic I did for Valentines Day (well duh!). It's a bit late, but I thought I'd share it with everyone as I happen to like it a lot! My first go at fluffy romance...yes this chapter is the introduction so it's a bit short. The fic in general is a bit short, but enjoy it anyway!
Chapter 1- Princess' Heartache
In the Wu courtyard, Sun Shang Xiang sat alone. So it was a normal Valentine's Day for her then. She had never been with anyone before, but it wasn't as if men were throwing themselves at her feet. Being the Wu princess, men from across China made offers for her hand in marriage, but she always refused. The Qiaos would as usual, have a go at her for this…
"Why don't you try looking for that special someone?" Da would nag.
"It's not hard!" Xiao would tell her. "There's got to be a man for you out there!"
Shang Xiang hoped so. She knew deep down that she couldn't go on alone forever. Sure, she had her family- her father, her brothers- but the little girl inside her wanted to be protected by someone else. Someone she could rely on, and be there for her. Someone she could love…
Underneath the moonlight she sat looking at what was in her hand. A single red rose. She had found it on her bed an hour ago. It had no note, and no clue as to who it was from. At first she suspected it was a practical joke from Sun Ce, but Ce wouldn't dare go near her room with her bodyguards near! But if it wasn't him, who was it from?
The petals were so perfectly formed, and the rose itself was flawless. Sun Shang Xiang wasn't a flowery type of girl (that was the Qiaos!), but the beauty of the rose was so captivating, and for once she had to admit it was enchanting. Normally she avoided these feminine things, but she held on to the rose. She heard some noise from the castle- the party must still be on, she thought as she stood up, and walked back to banquet hall.
Review please! Not that there's much to review... there's always the next chapter:)
