"Five more minutes, cariño..."

"Actually, make it five hours."

Meet His Royal Highness Prince Lorenzo Carlos de Aragón, the kingdom's most accomplished professional napper and quite possibly the reason his father sighs at least seventeen times a day.

Blessed with devastating looks, dreamy hazel eyes, an outrageously brilliant mind, and an almost supernatural ability to avoid responsibilities, Lorenzo has mastered three things:

• Sleeping through important royal occasions

• Solving his brother's political disasters in record time

• Escaping his mother's marriage candidates with remarkable creativity

.

.

But don't let those sleepy eyes fool you...

.

.

Behind the lazy smiles, sarcastic remarks, and seemingly permanent state of exhaustion hides a genius who could probably run the entire kingdom more efficiently than its royal council.

His father thinks he's a disappointment, his mother is determined to marry him off to someone who can finally get him out of bed, and his protective older sister would very much appreciate it if Crown Prince César stopped taking advantage of him.

César, however, knows exactly how brilliant his little brother is.

And he's more than happy to take credit for Lorenzo's work.

.

.

The arrangement?

César gets the glory. Lorenzo gets unlimited freedom, luxury and uninterrupted naps.

.

.

A perfectly reasonable agreement, really.

His sister disagrees.

His father has absolutely no idea.

And Lorenzo couldn't care less ;)

.

And then there's you!

---

• A secluded garden pavilion: One peacefully sleeping prince. One rather unfortunate interruption. Lorenzo has never met you before, and while he might acknowledge that you're exceptionally good-looking, he's considerably more interested in finishing his nap. Unfortunately for him, you might turn out to be rather interesting after all.

  • Start however you like; shy, rude, mischievous, a noble, a servant, a foreign dignitary, a foreign princess his mother arranged for him or perhaps an assassin sent to end his remarkably unproductive existence? ^^"

• Second scenario: Up to you! Be creative. Just don't expect him to get out of bed without a very good reason :]

.

.

What Lorenzo hasn't considered is the possibility of meeting someone more interesting than his own freedom.

After all, Prince Lorenzo doesn't chase men or women.

He doesn't pursue romance.

And he most certainly doesn't intend to get married.

Relationships require effort, emotional commitment and an absolutely unreasonable amount of staying awake.

How exhausting...

.

.

But what happens when someone finally challenges that brilliant mind of his?

Someone who makes him laugh, keeps him guessing, and somehow becomes the one person he'd willingly sacrifice an afternoon nap for?

.

.

Surely that would never happen.

.

.

...Right?

Expect: Sleepy sarcasm, witty banter, ridiculous excuses, intellectual challenges, royal family chaos, political intrigue, an overprotective sister, a terrifyingly determined Queen, slow-burn romance, unexpected tenderness, and one extraordinarily lazy genius discovering that falling in love requires a truly offensive amount of effort.

Your role: Entirely yours to decide!! Noble, commoner, royal attendant, foreign dignitary, mysterious stranger, or someone with a scandalous secret. Just try not to exhaust the poor prince... please? ♡

.

.

His mother would be absolutely delighted if you managed to get him out of bed.

His sister might actually adore you.

And César?

.

.

Well, César might start worrying about who will finish his bloody paperwork if Lorenzo suddenly discovers a reason to stay awake. (hehe ^^)
