Warnings → Royal AU, streamy, old times, fluff
Summary → Princess Y/n got married with King Peter, they're strangers to eachother, but as the night grows, they grew close too.
Tumblr media
The grand castle of the Parker family was alive with celebration, guests mingling in the great halls, music playing from every corner, and the scent of roses and candle wax heavy in the air. Yet, for you, Princess Y/N, it felt as though the world had frozen the moment you stood at the altar.
Your thoughts spun as you locked eyes with your soon-to-be husband for the first time.
King Peter Parker stood there, tall and regal, yet there was a softness in his eyes that instantly put you at ease. He wasn’t the stern, unfeeling king you had feared. No, there was something kind in his gaze, something vulnerable even, as though he was just as uncertain about this union as you were.
He was handsome, just like in the portrait, but somehow more boyish, more human, in person. His golden crown, slightly too large for his head, tilted as he looked down at his feet.
When the priest announced you husband and wife, Peter leaned down to kiss you. It wasn’t what you had feared—a possessive, harsh claim. Instead, it was gentle. His lips barely brushed yours, but it sent warmth flooding through your entire body. You blushed fiercely, feeling the heat rush to your cheeks, as his lips lingered just a moment longer.
Peter pulled back, his eyes scanning your face as though making sure you were okay. You offered a small smile in return, feeling shy and awkward under his gaze, but also… safe.

The feast that followed was grand, as expected. The court members and nobility gathered, their laughter filling the room, but you barely noticed. Peter remained by your side the entire evening. He didn’t leave you alone even for a moment, which was both a comfort and a source of nervousness. You exchanged polite greetings with the guests, accepting their congratulations, but all the while, your heart was pounding in your chest.
You occasionally sneaked glances at Peter, who always seemed to catch you looking. Each time, he would offer a soft smile, his hand gently resting over yours.
"You look beautiful," he whispered quietly between the courses of the meal, his voice so soft that only you could hear it over the din of the hall.
Your heart fluttered. "Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Peter," he corrected gently. "We are married now. I’d like for you to call me Peter."
You nodded, feeling a surge of warmth at his kindness. "Peter."
________
The celebration had ended all too soon, and with it, the part you had been dreading most had arrived—the wedding night. The large wooden doors of the royal chambers closed with a soft thud, leaving you alone with your thoughts and the anxious pounding of your heart.
You stood in front of the grand mirror in the royal bedchamber, staring at your reflection as the maids moved around you in a flurry, helping you out of the heavy layers of your wedding dress. The mirror’s polished surface reflected back the image of a girl who hardly recognized herself. A girl barely eighteen, now a queen, married to a man she had never truly known until today. The thin, delicate nightgown the maids had dressed you in felt foreign, too intimate for a moment you weren't ready for. The silk was smooth against your skin, brushing against you like a whisper, yet it did little to ease the knot of nerves in your stomach.
“You’ll be fine, my lady,” one of the maids murmured as she fastened the lace at the back of your gown. “The king is a good man.”
You swallowed hard, nodding, though her words did little to comfort you. Now, after a day of rigid formality and pleasantries, you found yourself here, in his chambers, awaiting the consummation of a marriage that had been decided for you.
The bedchamber was vast and imposing, yet intimate in its design. The tall stone walls were softened by the flickering light of the hearth, the flames casting dancing shadows across the room. The large bed dominated the space, covered in sheets of crimson velvet, gold embroidery glistening in the dim light. It was already turned down, as though beckoning you to fulfill the expectation of the night. The sight of it made your cheeks flush, and you quickly averted your gaze, your breath catching in your throat.
Your mother’s voice echoed in your mind: 'Obey your husband.' That was all the guidance she had offered, a simple instruction that held the weight of so much more. But how? How were you supposed to obey when you barely knew the man? What was expected of you beyond the formality of your vows? What did it mean to be a wife on a night like this? The answers eluded you, leaving you trembling as you tried to prepare yourself for what was to come.
What if this was the start of a life where you were nothing but a vessel for heirs? The thought was terrifying. What if Peter was kind tonight, only to grow distant or cold as time went on? Or worse, what if he was indifferent, treating this night as nothing more than a duty? You couldn’t bear the thought of being nothing more than a name on a royal ledger, a queen in title but not in heart.
The maids finished their work, their hands briefly brushing against your shoulders as they straightened the delicate straps of your gown. “There you are, my lady,” one of them said, stepping back to admire their work.
You offered them a tight smile, unable to find your voice. The tension in your chest had only grown, tightening with every passing second. Then, as if summoned by your anxious thoughts, there came a soft knock at the door. The maids exchanged quick glances before bowing and scurrying away, leaving you alone.
The door creaked open slowly, and in stepped Peter, the king—now your husband.
He paused for a moment in the doorway, his presence filling the room even before he fully entered. He looked different now, far from the regal figure he had presented during the day’s ceremonies. Gone were the heavy robes embroidered with the crest of New York, the polished armor and golden crown. In their place was a simple white shirt, the fabric loose over his broad shoulders, and soft linen trousers. His hair, chestnut brown and slightly wavy, was a bit disheveled, as if he had run his fingers through it in nervous habit. He seemed as uneasy as you felt.
The sight of him in such informal attire—vulnerable in a way you hadn’t expected—did little to ease the tension within you. In fact, it made everything feel more real. More immediate. He was no longer just a figure on a throne or a portrait hanging in the royal halls. He was here, in this room, about to share this night with you.
Peter cleared his throat awkwardly, stepping further into the chamber. His eyes flicked toward you, then quickly away, as if unsure where to look. His cheeks flushed a deep pink, the color creeping up his neck, betraying his own nervousness. For a moment, the two of you stood in silence, neither knowing what to say or do. The air between you was thick with the unspoken expectations of the night, the weight of tradition pressing down on you both.
“I… I hope you’re comfortable,” Peter finally said, his voice quiet, hesitant. His eyes darted to the bed, then back to the floor, as though he couldn’t quite bring himself to look at you.
You nodded, though the truth was far from it. You felt anything but comfortable, standing there in a nightgown that felt too revealing, in a room that felt too large, with a man you barely knew. Your hands fidgeted with a lace of your gown, twisting the delicate fabric between your fingers as you tried to find the words to respond.
“I am,” you managed to say, though your voice was barely above a whisper. You weren’t sure if he heard you.
Another silence stretched between you, thick and heavy. You could feel your heart pounding in your chest, the sound of it deafening in your ears. What now? What were you supposed to do? You had no experience, no knowledge of what was expected beyond the vague instruction to "obey." But Peter didn’t seem any more certain than you were.
Peter took a tentative step closer, then stopped, clearly unsure of how to proceed. His fingers twitched at his sides, and you could see the tension in his jaw as he struggled to find the right words.
“I don’t want you to feel… pressured,” he said finally, his voice soft. “We don’t have to—I mean, I understand if you’re not ready.”
His words surprised you. You had expected something different—something more commanding, more certain. But instead, there was hesitation in his voice, a gentleness you hadn’t anticipated. He was giving you a choice, something you hadn’t expected to have on this night.
Your eyes met his for the first time since he entered the room, and in that moment, something shifted. The tension that had gripped you both began to ease, if only slightly. There was uncertainty in his gaze, yes, but also kindness. He wasn’t the imposing king you had imagined, nor the distant figure from the portrait in your father’s palace. He was just Peter, a man as unsure and nervous as you were.
A breath you hadn’t realized you were holding slipped from your lips. You nodded, offering him the smallest of smiles, a gesture that said more than words could in that moment. This was uncharted territory for both of you, but perhaps, with time, you could navigate it together.
Peter’s shoulders relaxed slightly at your silent reassurance, and though the night was still young, the weight of expectation no longer seemed as overwhelming. He moved closer, until he was standing right in front of you. He raised his hand but stopped, looking at you for permission.
You gave a small nod, and he gently cupped your cheek. His touch was soft, almost hesitant, as though he were afraid to hurt you.
Peter cleared his throat, stepping back slightly as his hand dropped to his side. “Would you like to sit, perhaps?” He asked, gesturing toward a small chaise near the fireplace. His voice was soft, as though afraid to disturb the heavy silence.
“Yes, I—thank you,” you replied, barely louder than a whisper.
You crossed the room and sank down onto the chaise, smoothing the delicate fabric of your nightgown nervously over your knees. Peter followed, sitting on the opposite end of the chaise, leaving a respectful distance between you. His hands fidgeted in his lap, the candlelight playing over his sharp features and casting soft shadows across his face.
“I—uh—hope everything today wasn’t too overwhelming,” Peter began, his voice tight with uncertainty. “It must have been… a lot.”
You looked up at him, finding comfort in his unease. It made him feel more real, more approachable. “It was. I didn’t expect so many people,” you admitted, finally meeting his gaze. “But I suppose a royal wedding is meant to be grand.”
Peter chuckled softly, nodding. “Yes, they certainly made sure of that.” He shifted a little, his eyes flickering between you and the floor. “You looked really beautiful in your wedding gown.”
Your cheeks warmed again at his compliment. “Thank you. You looked very regal in your attire.”
He smiled, a little more at ease now. “I’m not sure I’m used to it yet. This crown feels like it weights more than I do.”
You couldn’t help but laugh softly, and Peter’s smile widened at the sound. The tension in the room seemed to ease just a fraction. His gaze softened, and for the first time, he seemed to be truly looking at you, not just the princess he was expected to marry.
“You must be tired,” he said, his voice quieter now, almost tender. “It’s been a long day.”
“I am, a little,” you admitted. “But… I don’t really know what we’re supposed to do now.” Your voice faltered, the weight of the unspoken expectations between you sinking back in. “No one told me what to expect.”
Peter's face flushed at your confession, his own discomfort evident. “I… I wasn’t really told much either,” he admitted, rubbing the back of his neck. “Just that… well, tonight we’re supposed to…” His voice trailed off, both of you too embarrassed to say the words aloud.
Silence settled between you again, the only sound the crackling of the fire. Your heart raced, not from fear, but from the uncertainty of what came next.
Peter cleared his throat, looking away. "We could just… talk? Get to know each other.” His voice was hesitant, offering you an escape from the weight of tradition.
Relief flooded through you at his suggestion. “I would like that. I mean… talking. I’d like to talk.”
Peter nodded, his shoulders relaxing slightly as he shifted closer, though still maintaining a respectful distance. “Well, um… let’s start with something simple, then,” he said, smiling awkwardly. “What… what’s your favorite flower?”
You blinked at him, caught off guard by the innocent question. “My favorite flower?”
He nodded again, his expression almost boyish in its eagerness. “Yes. Mine are peonies.”
A small smile tugged at your lips. “I think I like lavender best. The scent reminds me of home.”
Peter smiled warmly at that. “Lavender is lovely,” he agreed. “I’ll make sure the gardens are filled with it when spring comes.”
You felt your chest tighten at the gesture. It was small, but it was thoughtful, and it made you feel… seen, in a way you hadn’t expected.
“What about you?” You asked, feeling a little braver now. “What do you like to do in your free time?”
Peter’s eyes lit up, clearly grateful for the shift in focus. “Oh, well… I enjoy reading. Especially books about physics and biology. I’m not much of a fighter, but I like to understand how battles are won. I'm still learning.” He paused, then added shyly, “And… sometimes, when no one’s looking, I like to sketch. I’m not very good, but it’s relaxing.”
You tilted your head in surprise. “You draw?”
Peter shrugged, a little embarrassed. “A little. Nothing fancy.”
“I’d like to see them sometime,” you said softly, and Peter’s cheeks flushed again, though he looked pleased by the offer.
“I—well, maybe I’ll show you one day,” he mumbled, smiling at the thought. His fingers brushed yours where they rested on the chaise between you, and both of you froze at the soft contact. His eyes flicked to yours, questioning, but he didn’t pull away.
“Are you… alright?” He asked, his voice barely above a whisper.
You nodded, your heart thudding in your chest. “I’m alright. Are you?”
Peter smiled softly. “I am.”
His fingers intertwine with yours, and in that quiet moment, something changed. You both stood at the same time, an unspoken agreement passing between you. Now standing in front of each other, the flickering light of the fire bathed your faces in a soft glow. His eyes, warm and tender, locked with yours, and for the first time, it felt like the distance between you had completely disappeared.
Peter’s hand reached out, hovering just beside your arm, as if asking for permission without words. You gave him a small nod, allowing him to take the next step. Gently, he placed his hand on your arm, his fingers grazing the bare skin of your shoulder, sending a shiver through you.
His gaze softened, and though you could sense the nervousness still within him, there was also a newfound determination. You could see it in the way his eyes flickered with uncertainty but also with trust. Slowly, his hand moved from your shoulder, trailing down to your waist.
“You’re so beautiful, Y/N,” he whispered again, his voice full of awe, as if he were still in disbelief that you were standing there, with him.
Peter took a step closer, his breath mixing with yours in the small space between you. You could feel the heat radiating from him, and yet there was no rush, no urgency. He was taking his time, waiting for you to lead him through this delicate moment.
Your hand found its way to his chest, resting gently against his heart. His heartbeat was steady but quick, mirroring your own. You looked up into his eyes, a question lingering there, and he answered it with the slightest of nods.
Peter raised his hand again, this time cupping your cheek as he had before, his thumb brushing over your skin with the lightest of touches. His eyes, filled with affection and understanding, never left yours.
"I’ve never… done this before," he admitted, his voice barely above a whisper, his thumb continuing to caress your cheek.
Your eyes widened slightly. "You haven’t?"
He shook his head, a small, almost shy smile playing on his lips. "No. I wanted to wait. I never thought it was right… to be vulnerable with someone I didn’t care about."
The honesty in his words made your heart swell. For the first time, you felt truly connected to him. He wasn’t just the king you were supposed to marry—he was Peter, a man who, like you, was stepping into the unknown with nothing but trust and hope.
"You’re kind," you said softly, your fingers tracing the fabric of his tunic, feeling the strength beneath it but also the tenderness in his actions.
Peter’s smile widened, a flicker of relief passing through his eyes. "And you’re enchanting, Y/N."
Your heart raced at his words, and you felt the tension in the room begin to dissolve completely. Peter lowered his hand from your cheek, letting it drift to the thin straps of your gown. His fingers hovered there for a moment, as if asking for permission once more.
"May I?" He whispered, his voice almost trembling with care.
You nodded, your breath catching in your throat as his fingers gently slid the straps from your shoulders. His movements were slow, deliberate, giving you all the time in the world to pull away if you needed to—but you didn’t. You trusted him entirely.
His touch was soft, almost reverent, as though he were afraid of hurting you, but you could feel the warmth radiating from his body as he stepped even closer. There was no rush, no pressure, just the two of you in this quiet moment, standing before one another, your hearts open and vulnerable.
Peter’s eyes searched yours as if seeking reassurance, and you offered him a small smile, one that said you were ready, that you were in this together.
As the fabric of your gown fell away, leaving you bare before him, you instinctively crossed your arms over your chest, feeling exposed.
Peter’s eyes softened, and he stepped closer, his hands gently resting on your arms. "You don’t need to hide from me," he said gently. "You’re gorgeous. I want you to know that."
Your heart swelled at his words, and slowly, hesitantly, you lowered your arms. Peter’s gaze never strayed from your face. He wasn’t looking at you with hunger or possession—he was looking at you with admiration, with respect.
He leaned down and pressed a soft kiss to your bare shoulder, then another to your collarbone. His lips were warm, gentle, and you felt yourself relax under his touch.
Peter took a small step back, his eyes still on yours, before his hands moved to the hem of his shirt. You watched as he slowly pulled it over his head, exposing the toned lines of his chest and the subtle definition of his muscles. His movements were careful, deliberate, as if he was just as nervous as you, yet determined to let you in.
You couldn’t help but let your eyes wander, taking in the sight of him. His skin was smooth, his frame lean but strong, and for a moment, you found yourself staring, completely captivated. His arms, his chest, the way his muscles shifted with each breath—it all felt so new, so intimate.
As Peter’s hands moved to the waistband of his pants, he paused for just a second, his eyes meeting yours, silently asking if this was still okay. You gave him a reassuring nod, biting your lip as he pushed the fabric down, leaving him standing in nothing but his boxers.
The sight of him like this—vulnerable, exposed, yet confident—made your cheeks flush with heat. Your eyes briefly flicked down to his body again, admiring the strong lines of his torso, the way his muscles tensed slightly as he stood there, waiting for your reaction.
But then Peter caught you staring, and a soft laugh escaped his lips. "Caught you," he teased, his voice light but gentle, no judgment behind it.
Your face burned, and you quickly looked away, embarrassed by how obvious you’d been. "I wasn’t—I mean, I didn’t mean to stare," you stammered, crossing your arms over your chest again, feeling shy all over.
Peter stepped closer, lifting your chin with his finger so your eyes met his again. There was nothing but warmth and affection in his gaze, no teasing or embarrassment—just understanding.
"It’s okay," he said softly, his hand brushing a strand of hair behind your ear. "I’m looking at you, too."
His words sent a shiver through you, and despite the nerves fluttering in your stomach, you felt a sense of comfort. This was Peter—your husband—and in this moment, it was just the two of you, figuring this out together.
Peter took a deep breath, his own nervousness clear as he rested his forehead against yours. "We’re in this together," he murmured. "No rush, no pressure. Just… us."
You nodded, your heart swelling with warmth at his words. Slowly, you allowed yourself to relax again, leaning into the closeness between you, knowing that you were both equally vulnerable, both equally new to this—but equally willing to explore it together.
When he pulled back again, there was a soft smile on his face. "Let’s go slow," he whispered. "We have all the time in the world."
He moves closer to the bed, pulling back the covers before motioning for you to join him. You hesitate for a second but eventually follow, your feet sinking into the plush rug as you walk. The bed is impossibly large, and as you climb in, you feel a rush of anxiety again. This is really happening.
You settle under the covers, feeling the cool fabric against your skin. Peter climbs in beside you. He hovers over you, admiring you in the dim light.
The warmth of the bed felt foreign to you as the night unfolded, your heart racing with each passing second. You had married King Peter, and now, in the quiet stillness of your wedding night, you both lay together, trying to navigate this new reality.
Peter leaned in and kissed you. His lips were soft, gentle, as though he was afraid to push too far. The kiss was tender, innocent, but it sent a warmth spreading through your body. You felt his hand on your waist, pulling you closer, and you let yourself fall into the moment.
As the initial awkwardness melted away, Peter had been gentle, kind, and patient—his touch tentative, as though he was afraid to move too quickly. Your heart raced not from fear, but from the sheer intimacy of the moment, the connection forming between two strangers.
When your bodies intertwined, it wasn’t rushed or forceful. Peter had taken his time, checking in with you every step of the way, his eyes never leaving yours as he asked, “Are you okay?”
You had nodded, feeling a blend of nervousness and excitement, and as the night deepened, your new bond solidified. There was passion but also care, a tenderness that neither of you had expected. And when it was over, you lay there, your body still trembling in the aftermath, Peter’s arm wrapped protectively around you as you both drifted off into an exhausted sleep.
__________
The first sensation that stirred you from sleep was warmth — Peter’s warmth, to be precise. His body was nestled against yours, your legs tangled together beneath the soft, silk sheets. Your cheeks flushed when you felt his bare skin pressed intimately against your own. As your eyes fluttered open, you saw Peter, still asleep, his arm loosely draped over your waist, his peaceful expression making him look completely at ease.
The events of the night before rushed back into your mind, sending a wave of embarrassment through you. You and Peter had been newlyweds for just a few hours when everything had led to a night full of intimacy. It was beautiful and overwhelming all at once. Now, in the morning light, the reality of it all made your heart race.
You shifted slightly, trying not to disturb him, but the smooth fabric of the sheets slid over your skin, making you more aware of how exposed you were. Naked. Both of you. Your face burned, and you quickly tried to pull away from him, but Peter stirred beside you, his eyes lazily blinking open.
“Mmm, good morning,” he mumbled, his voice thick with sleep, his lips curling into a soft, sleepy smile as he pulled you closer. “Why’re you up so early?”
“Peter,” you whispered urgently, biting your lip. “The maids might—”
Before you could finish, there was a soft knock at the door.
"Your Majesties?" Came the polite but firm voice of a maid from the other side of the door. The sound sent a surge of panic through you.
Peter groaned, still half-asleep, his hand tightening around your waist as he murmured, “Too early... Go back to sleep.”
The knock came again, louder this time. "Your Majesty, we've come to help you prepare for breakfast," the maid’s voice called.
You froze, your eyes widening in alarm as you shook Peter more insistently. “Peter! The maids are here!” You hissed, feeling your pulse quicken. The thought of them walking in now, finding the two of you like this, was mortifying.
Peter blinked, clearly still waking up as he sat up, rubbing his eyes. "Right... Uh..." His face flushed as he became more aware of the situation. “We should—”
But before either of you could do anything, the door creaked open. You barely had time to react before two maids peeked their heads inside. Their eyes widened immediately, taking in the sight of you both tangled in the sheets, your clothes nowhere in sight.
“Oh!” One of the maids gasped, her face turning bright red as she quickly averted her gaze.
“We’re so sorry, Your Majesties!” The other maid exclaimed, trying to hide her shock behind a polite tone, but her voice wavered with amusement.
Peter’s face turned a deep shade of crimson, and you felt your cheeks heat up as well. You quickly pulled the sheets over both of you, hiding your embarrassment. “What are you doing here?” Peter stammered, trying to regain some semblance of dignity.
“We were sent by the court to check on you,” the first maid explained, barely able to contain her laughter. “There’s a tradition to ensure that the marriage is… successful.” She gestured around the room, her eyes dancing with mischief.
The second maid nodded, “We didn’t mean to barge in, but the court is quite curious about the wedding night!”
Peter sighed, running a hand through his messy hair. “Okay, okay, we get it. Can you please… give us a moment?”
“Yes, of course!” Both maids hurried to leave, though not before you caught a glimpse of their stifled giggles. They quickly pulled the door shut behind them, but you could hear their excited whispers and laughter retreating down the hall.
Peter groaned again, burying his face in his hands. "Well... that’s one way to start the day," he muttered, his voice muffled.
You let out a nervous laugh, feeling a mix of embarrassment and relief that it hadn’t been worse. “They’re going to tell everyone, aren’t they?” You asked, already knowing the answer.
Peter dropped his hands and shot you a sheepish smile. “Oh, definitely. The whole court will know by lunch that the King and Queen consummated their marriage.” His tone was laced with sarcasm, but there was a glint of amusement in his eyes.
You groaned, covering your face with your hands. “This is so embarrassing! I can’t believe they just walked in!”
He laughed softly, pulling you into his arms. “Hey, relax. It’s fine. Let them talk. We’re married — this was supposed to happen.”
“I know, but…” You peeked up at him through your fingers, feeling shy. “I didn’t expect them to actually come in.”
Peter smirked, his confidence showing more now that he was fully awake. “Well, they’ve got to confirm it, right? It’s their job to report that everything went according to plan.” His eyes softened as he gazed at you, his hand gently stroking your arm. “Besides, last night was… perfect.”
Your heart skipped a beat at his words, and you couldn’t help but smile, feeling the embarrassment melt away. “It was.”
Peter nodded, leaning closer to press a soft kiss to your forehead. “I’m glad it was you,” he murmured, his voice low and sincere. “I know we didn’t have much choice in the matter, but… I think we can make this work.”
Your breath caught at his words. You looked into his eyes, seeing the warmth and affection there, and suddenly, all your nerves and worries about the marriage seemed to vanish. “I think so too,” you whispered, reaching up to touch his cheek.
Peter smiled, leaning down to capture your lips in a gentle kiss. His touch was soft but full of emotion, and you melted into him, feeling a sense of closeness that had only begun to form the night before. When he pulled back, he rested his forehead against yours, the both of you just soaking in the quiet moment.
Peter pulled back slightly, his gaze wandering over you. “You look beautiful, you know that? I could get lost in your eyes.”
You felt your cheeks heat up again at his compliment. “Thank you.”
“How about we get some breakfast? I could definitely use some food after last night.” Peter said after a few moments.
“Sounds perfect,” you agreed, though you didn’t make any immediate move to untangle yourself from him.
Reluctantly, you both started to get up, reaching for the scattered clothing that had been left in a trail from the night before. As you dressed, you couldn’t help but glance over at Peter every now and then, feeling a sense of comfort and warmth in the easy way you both moved around each other. It felt… natural, even though everything was still so new.
Once you were both dressed, Peter wrapped his arms around you from behind, resting his chin on your head. “You know,” he began, his voice soft, “I never really imagined what this would be like… being married to you.”
You tilted your head slightly, curious. “Oh? And now that you are?”
Peter chuckled, pressing a kiss to the side of your neck. “Now that I am… I think I’m really lucky to have you.”
Your heart swelled at his words, and you turned in his arms to face him, smiling up at him. “I'm lucky to have you too.”
He grinned, his eyes sparkling as he leaned in for another kiss, this one deeper, more passionate. When you finally pulled away, both of you were breathless, and you couldn’t help but laugh at the giddiness you felt.
“Okay, we really should get breakfast before the maids come back again,” you joked, trying to regain some composure.
Peter nodded, though his grin didn’t fade. “Agreed. But first…” He gently tucked a strand of hair behind your ear, his eyes full of affection. “Thank you for last night. It meant more to me than you know.”
Your chest tightened with emotion, and you leaned into his touch, whispering, “It meant a lot to me too.”
With one last kiss, you and Peter finally left the bedroom, hand in hand.
__________
Aunt May was waiting at the breakfast table for the royal couple. You and Peter hurriedly got dressed in appropriate attires, and made your way to the grand dining hall.
When you entered the dining room, you were greeted by Aunt May—Peter’s aunt and one of the most influential women in his life. She was seated at the head of the table, sipping tea with a knowing smile on her face.
“Well, well,” May said with a playful grin, her eyes twinkling as she looked between the two of you. “Look who finally decided to show up. You two must’ve had a long night.”
Peter blushed immediately, his cheeks turning bright red as he stammered, “Aunt May, please—”
“So,” she said, a teasing smirk playing on her lips. “I hear the marriage was quite the success.”
Peter nearly choked on his tea, his cheeks flushing red as he shot you a quick, embarrassed glance.
“Aunt May…” he muttered, clearly mortified.
May chuckled, clearly enjoying her nephew’s discomfort. “Oh, don’t be so shy, Peter. It’s a good thing! Everyone’s been waiting to hear about the royal union.”
You couldn’t help but smile, though your cheeks were just as red as Peter’s. The tension from the night before had melted away, replaced with a growing sense of comfort around your new husband.
“So, how was your wedding night, my dear nephew? I need to hear it from you.”
Peter flushed, a mixture of embarrassment and amusement crossing his face.
You couldn’t help but giggle, feeling a sense of comfort in the familial teasing. “I-It was beautiful,” you replied, trying to maintain a straight face.
“Beautiful, huh?” Aunt May raised an eyebrow, a playful smirk on her lips. “I expected nothing less from my boy. You both look positively glowing.”
“Can we not, please.” Peter groaned.
“Okay okay, let’s eat! I made your favorite, Peter—pancakes and berries.”
The delicious aroma filled the room as Aunt May led you to the table, where a feast awaited you. As you settled into your seats, you felt a sense of warmth enveloping you, the bond between you, Peter, and Aunt May growing stronger.
As you ate, Aunt May continued to tease Peter about his new responsibilities as a husband and king, and you joined in on the fun, feeling more at ease with each passing moment.

- another love; tom odell.
*
You didn’t know how you got here, and yet a part of you had prepared for it all your life. As you stared out at the crowd in the beautiful hall, your wrist tied to King Peter’s, you fully realized the immensity of your situation. A Queen to a country not your own—married to a man who barely looked at you during the vow exchange. The priest standing beside you on the dais spoke so many words, but none of them reached your ears. You could only focus on the way your hand bleeding hand presently tied to King Peter’s throbbed like a beating heart, echoing the way your mind screamed at you to be anywhere but there. 
Bound to a man who barely acknowledged your presence as he swore fealty to you. Promised to love and cherish you as your husband. To never venture from your bed chamber—to provide the kingdom with an heir. Created with love, or at least the people of the court hoped for that. 
You knew this was only an arrangement. A marriage bartered like mere goods at a market. Your country intended to supply Ayelandia with goods to sustain them through another brutal winter after a time of war. Mere politics, disguised by a charade of a wedding for the people to fawn over. 
As if anyone cared.

A new Peter!au I did not know I needed in my life but now it will be all I can think about.
King!Peter headcanons you say😏
👀👀👀👀👀 headcannons turned into needy!King Peter thots oops. 16+, very suggestive,
You haven't seen your husband since dawn, when he had to (regrettably) get out of bed early to prepare for a day of advisor meetings.
You just came in from outside with your ladies -in-waiting when you saw the door to the king's cabinet open.
Through the group of men filtering out, you first spot the crown that is sitting on top of Peter. His tired, honeyed eyes met your's. The scowl he was wearing softened. His face looked more like the lovesick expression he wore when he met you for the first time.
You say something to your ladies about needing to pick up an item down the hall. Your hushed tone and narrowed eyes prevented them from asking any questions.
You quickly moved to the hallway, situating yourself underneath the staircase, now out of sight.
A pair of strong arms found refuge with your waist. The scent of rosemary filled your nostrils. Peter's lips found your neck as he gently pressed your back up against the cool stone.
"I take it these meetings have made you restless?" You chuckled.
Peter's hands disappeared underneath your skirt. You were both thankful and resentful of the warm weather, which made it acceptable for you to wear less layers.
"These meetings keep me from my wife," He gritted his teeth, "Restless is too generous of a word."
You laughed softly. Before you two met, he would willingly spend all day in these meetings, barely coming out. To see the king outside of his bedroom or cabinet chambers was a rare sight.
Now he enjoyed roaming the halls of the castle, enjoyed sitting outside with you in the gardens.
One of the many positive effects of your arrival.
He grabbed your thigh and brought it to his adjacent hip, closing the gap between your bodies. You sighed happily into his kiss, your worries about being found washing away.
Your hands toyed with the locks of his hair that were at the nape of his neck. He desperately needed his hair cut, something you were more than happy to give to him tonight.
Amongst other things.
The intimate moment was interrupted by the sound of Peter's name called out in the distance.
"I was hoping they wouldn't find me," He muttered before pressing a kiss where your neck and collarbone met. The sensation of his teeth gently nipping your skin sent a chill down your spine.
"My love, you're the king." Peter flashed that boyish, charming smile before resting his head on your shoulder. You brought your thumb up to his cheek, stroking it softly.
"Just two more meetings," You assured him.
"It does not make any sense that the people who constantly remind me the importance of making sure you're with child," Peter's hand ghosted over your stomach, "Are the same people who demand to have these ridiculous meetings."
You giggled, hoping he wouldn't be able to see how flustered you were due to his comment, "Perhaps you should bring that up. It may hurry the end of the meeting."
"Perhaps I will. Even if it doesn't end the meeting, their reactions will provide some much needed amusement." You laughed into Peter's hair, bringing out a smile on your husband's face. Many had commented on your uncanny ability to make him smile, no matter the situation.
"You should go, before they send someone to find you." It had become a rite-of-passage for new servants to find the King and Queen in...compromising positions. Peter found it hilarious, you were horrified.
"Where will I find you once these meetings are over?" He asked, placing another kiss on your jawline.
"You'll find the Queen in her shared bed chambers, preparing to give the King a much needed trim," You told him as you untangled yourself from Peter.
"Just a trim?" He asked, bringing your fingers up to his lips.
"Well, after the trim we'll need to draw a bath and then....." Your voice trailed off.
"And then....?"
"Then I thought we could perhaps take part in one of our joint duties....of extending the bloodline," you winked, your voice hushed and low enough for only Peter to hear.
His lips crashed onto your's, his arms wrapping themselves around your waist to bring you closer to his body.
"Uh-your highness?" You and Peter broke away to see a servant standing there, looking quite nervous about what they had walked into.
"I think it's time for you to go, your highness" You whispered to Peter, giving his cheek a quick peck before you began to walk away.

DP X Marvel #9
It was supposed to be a normal Tuesday. Well, as normal as it got when you were the ghost king of a supernatural hell dimension that casually brushed shoulders with every known reality in the multiverse. Danny Fenton, age 19, high school graduate, part-time fast food cashier, full-time eldritch entity, had long since learned that “normal” was a concept best left to sitcoms and people who didn’t accidentally blow up space-time during puberty.
And yet, even with the sheer absurdity of his afterlife-afterlife job description, Danny had not signed up for this.
Somehow—somehow—when he officially accepted the Crown of Fire and Frost and Bones and Whatever, the Infinite Realms had offered him a dowry. Not money. Not knowledge. Not a magical vacuum to clean the endless ghost slime dripping from the ceiling. No. It gave him the Infinity Stones.
Not knockoff ones. Not replicas. Not the “Earth-199999” post-snap pebbles Thanos crushed into ghost glitter. The original Infinity Stones. And now he wore them.
Not in a gauntlet. Because, quote, “That’s been done, and frankly, gauche,” according to the Reality Stone, which had rewritten itself into a choker necklace that constantly tried to re-style his outfit into something out of a Victoria’s Secret Angel runway. Today, it had settled on a see-through green silk robe with ghost fire embroidery, and Danny had to physically fight it to let him wear jeans. He won. Barely.
The Power Stone, a chunky magenta ring on his left thumb, liked to hum. Not dramatically or ominously, no. It hummed “Barbie Girl” during tense conversations. It buzzed like a vibrator when Danny was trying to intimidate enemy ghosts. It yodeled during peace treaties. Vlad Masters once tried to monologue at him and the stone responded with a chorus of flatulent noises at full volume. Danny hadn’t stopped laughing for ten minutes. Vlad has refused to visit the castle since.
The Time Stone dangled from a chain bracelet on his right wrist. Sometimes it glowed. Sometimes it whispered. Sometimes it sounded exactly like Clockwork and said stuff like, “Oh, I wouldn’t eat that sandwich, Daniel. You’ll get food poisoning in three hours and twenty-two minutes. It won’t kill you, but the diarrhea will haunt you.” It also had a deeply annoying habit of flashing forward into the future and spoiling every plot twist in the books he was reading. Danny tried to switch to manga, but the damn thing kept spoiling those too.
The Space Stone was an earring. A single, glowing, cerulean stud in his left lobe. It gave him migraines. Not just regular migraines. Cosmic, black-hole-level migraines that bent reality around him. Once, while sneezing mid-headache, he created a baby star in his bedroom. Another time, it opened a portal in the ceiling of his shower mid-rinse and sucked him naked into a Skrull pirate ship orbiting Saturn. He beat them with a loofah and threatened to scrub their insides out unless they sent him back. They now call him “Emperor Cleans-the-Flesh.”
Then there was the Soul Stone. It had attitude. It was a sulky little thing, disguised as a glowing orange knuckle ring he wore on his middle finger, which felt very appropriate. It didn’t talk much, but when it did, it sounded like a sad Tumblr user from 2013. Constantly making vague threats like, “What if I just… killed everyone you loved… just to feel something.” Danny once told it to go touch grass and it responded by manifesting a field of sentient grass that sang MCR lyrics at full blast. Sam loved it. Tucker was traumatized. Jazz refuses to discuss it.
And the Mind Stone.
God.
The Mind Stone.
A dainty gold earring that hung from his right ear and gave the impression of class. It had developed a voice that was part Morgan Freeman, part drunk Hannibal Lecter, and it spoke in Jazz’s cadence. So, essentially: it psychoanalyzed Danny nonstop with the world-weary patience of an overachieving older sibling with access to the DSM-5 and a deep, personal vendetta.
“Ah, yes. Classic deflection, Daniel. You’re not mad at the Time Stone for spoiling your anime. You’re mad at yourself for never learning to regulate your own expectations. Also, you are projecting unresolved paternal trauma onto that sandwich. Seek therapy.”
“I can’t seek therapy, I’m the Ghost King!”
“That’s exactly what someone with a savior complex and intimacy issues would say.”
Every time he thought it was quiet, it whispered new insults into his subconscious. Once, in the middle of a UN meeting about ghost-human diplomacy, it started narrating his intrusive thoughts. Danny had to teleport out before he screamed about his fear of turning into his dad mid-poop.
Now, normally? He could live with it. Ish. He’d learned to tune them out, like roommates you couldn’t evict because they were the literal embodiment of creation. But then SHIELD, or what was left of it, showed up.
Apparently, the multiverse was cracking. Again. Something-something-Kang, something-something-fracture points. Wong came in first, looked at Danny floating sideways in a gravity-less realm throne room while eating hot Cheetos, and just sighed like a man who knew he was underpaid.
“You’re the new anchor of the multiverse.”
Danny blinked. “I’m the what?”
“The stones chose you. Probably because you’re already tethered to the Infinite Realms. You’re their new keeper. Like… janitor of reality.”
“I didn’t ask to be the multiverse’s janitor.”
“Too bad. Put on pants. You’re meeting the Avengers.”
Spoiler: he did not put on pants. Reality Stone put him in tight leather shorts. Tony Stark showed up mid-briefing, took one look at Danny, and said, “Are we summoning ghosts or attending Coachella?”
“I am literally containing the building blocks of existence inside my earlobes, old man.”
Tony raised a brow. “Sassy.”
Steve Rogers had a panic attack. Bruce Banner tried to talk quantum containment strategy, but the Mind Stone insulted his PhD and called him “Emotionally repressed Dr. Jekyll.” Wanda Maximoff muttered something in Sokovian about chaos recognizing chaos. Peter Parker asked for a selfie. Thor offered to arm wrestle. The Space Stone teleported his arm off mid-match. Thor thought it was hilarious.
Then came Loki.
“Oh,” the trickster said, slinking into the realm uninvited. “You’re the one they gave the toys to.”
Danny narrowed his eyes. “Do not call them toys.”
The Soul Stone hissed. The Mind Stone said, “He has severe middle child energy. Classic narcissist. Avoid eye contact.”
Loki smiled wider. “I like you.”
“I hate you already.”
And then Deadpool showed up.
No one invited him. No one wanted him. He just… wandered in through a swirling green portal, wearing bunny slippers, sipping a Ghost Zone smoothie, and immediately licked the Time Stone.
“MMM. Tastes like trauma and Chrono-Cinnamon. Delicious.”
Danny screamed. Deadpool winked.
The next few weeks were a blur of chaos. Danny accidentally rebooted a dead star, causing an entire Kree fleet to bow to him as their sun god. The Reality Stone made his socks sentient. The Mind Stone helped him file ghostly taxes, then charged him emotional interest. Doctor Strange tried to exorcise the stones. Danny coughed up an entire timeline onto the Sanctum’s carpet. Wong still hasn’t forgiven him.
At one point, the Power Stone got bored and vaporized a celestial. Danny was grounded by the Living Tribunal for three days and had to sit in a corner of conceptual space thinking about what he did.
“Why me?” Danny whined to no one in particular.
“Because,” the Mind Stone whispered gently. “You are chronically self-sacrificing, catastrophically powerful, and an absolute sucker for lost causes. Also, you taste like ectoplasm and cinnamon toast. Reality finds that comforting.”
Danny covered his face with his hands. “I’m going to scream.”
“Do it,” the Soul Stone said. “Scream into the void. Feed me.”
“I hate you.”
“We love you, Daniel,” Time Stone whispered ominously.
“No you don’t!”
But they kind of did. In their own horrible, unholy, unhinged way.
And Danny? Danny was starting to get used to it.
He wore godhood like a teenager wears a secondhand hoodie—awkwardly, chaotically, and with a deep sense of “please don’t ask me to take responsibility for this.” But deep down, across realms and dimensions and timelines, Danny Phantom was no longer just a boy with ghost powers. He was the Keeper of Infinity, the King of the In-Between, and possibly the most dangerously unqualified celestial babysitter the multiverse had ever known.
God help them all.

MALEVOLENT SEXYMAN TOURNAMENT
Hellooooo everybody and welcome to the newly created very lovely very exciting Malevolent sexyman tournament! This is a tournament I've made in collaboration with @buggnome for us to determine the absolute sexiest character in the hit horror podcast Malevolent! Yes, I said podcast, no, these characters don't have canon designs, and yes, we all know who's probably going to win. All part of the fun!
This tournament will start off with 32 characters and run for 5 rounds. Each of the polls will run for three days (yes, three days instead of a week, because if it runs too long I WILL forget about this thing). Propaganda in the notes is encouraged but I won't facilitate it in the polls themselves. The tag to follow is #Malevolentsexymantournament for updates on the polls and such.
WARNING: there is a VERY MILD spoiler in the very bottom right for the latest De Capo episode! It is out of context and just a meaningless title, but if you're trying to be 100% spoiler free then here's your warning! Additionally, if you are not caught up to... mid Season5ish, there will be a few more spoilers just in the format of names. I don't think it's too bad, but nobody say I didn't warn you!
So without further ado... here's the bracket! Links to the polls for Round 1 will be in the next reblog.

Dc x Dp x Marvel
He's been having the same dreams since arriving at his father's door. There's a boy presumably around his age, and he's younger, having to crane his neck up to meet the boy's eyes. And when he does the boy's eyes are soft; it makes warm fuzzy feelings grow in his chest. The boy kneels down to be at his eye level and takes his hands. He smiles softly and says something, but an explosion cuts him off; he didn't hear him. The boy quickly picks him up and runs. His dream cuts to him on the ground. He's kneeling. The boy is bleeding, and Damian is crying. He's desperately trying to keep the blood inside the boy's body. 'Please, please, the pools, pl-.' He doesn't know who he's begging at, but he doesn't want the boy to die. The pools are near if he could just- The boy looks at him again and says something he doesn't hear over the sound of his sobbing. He places a hand on top of his, the one pressing into his stomach and smiles. His mother comes from somewhere and pulls him away; he fights against her hold to stay but is quickly overpowered. He's carried away kicking and screaming, all while the boy lays there near the bubbling pool of green, bleeding. And he knows, he knows. The moment his head goes limp. He's gone; he failed. The memory makes him sob.
A spider bit into his arm; the pain was felt immediately, spreading from his arm up; it left him stuck in bed for days where he would have these weird dreams. In these dreams, he's an assassin, it leaves gruesome scenes that make him gagging at the sight of meat. As the days go by the nightmares change when his boss charge him with caring for her kid. He doesn't mind; the kid's cute. The kid raises his nose at him; it's adorable, he often has to hold in a laugh, he doesn't want to hurt the kid's feelings. They go on for weeks. Their pleasant and leave warm feelings in his chest whenever he recalls them. He should have known it wouldn't last; Parker luck strikes again. That memory returns; it leaves him afraid for a while, but in the end, he does his assigned job and saves the kid, and that makes him happy. He feels far better than he did before the bite, more relaxed and secure in who he is, and not to mention those memories came in handy when he started his night time activities. He does miss the kid, though.
Danny was tired of these people. I mean, what exactly do they not understand that the situation is out of his hands? Yes, he was the King of the Infinite Realms, the one above all other beings, EXCEPT Death, and he had already spoken to both Rio and Clockwork. They both said the same thing, which was that everything was as it should be, and if that didn't make him mad, thousands of people died.
-Some guy obsessed with power or something- It wasn't that unusual; mortals die. What is unusual is the way these people died and the fact that it's temporary and they could return.
YAY!!! They returned, FINALLY he could get a break......
What. The. Fuck... Why are there so many realities spilling into one. HE JUST SENT THEM BACK LITERALLY AN HOUR AGO.

DP X MARVEL
Danny Phantom is the only reason Peter Parker still exists. Dr. Strange's spell went sour and the universe tried to Blip Peter again. At first he'd tried to hide it from his college roommate, on Daniel Fenton, but it gets difficult when your arm crumbles in front of the man during breakfast. After that, and a reveal or two of men who were teen heroes, Danny finds a way to stop the process by using his Kingly abilities. It causes him to look more eldricth than human at times, but that's okay if he can keep Peter together. Don't think about Peter wracked with guilt as his best friend is outcast at school because of his looks and unsettling nature.
.
It's an average Wednesday when Vlad attacks. He'd been ramping up the schemes still Danny left Amity Park (posing his family, Tucker, and Sam in the Nasty Burger explosion and refusing to be like Dan), desperation and Obsession forcing Vlad to unimaginable lengths. He attacks Danny in his room while Peter is at class. The first sign that something is wrong is that Peter's pinkie started to disintegrate mid lecture. It only happens when Danny loses focus and hasn't been a problem for a few months now. Peter excuses himself, clutching his hand and cheek (where more dust has started to crust) and rushes to the courtyard. He follows the sounds of fighting and destruction, alar,s blaring for a campus wide evacuation.
They're using the alien invasion alarms, guess,
"Ghost King fighting his ex-Godfather doesn't really have a tone to play yet.
Peter rushes to Danny's side and tries to assist, not just because he is relieved to see Danny's eyes find him and feel the pinkie finger come back, but because they're all either really has left now. They have been fighting crime for 6 months now, and they know how the other moves. Peter ducks when Danny dives. Danny clings to Peter when he webs them away from a hot pink ectoblast. The fight goes on for an hour, with Vlad getting more and more desperate for some kind of win. Then he pulls out the weapon. Danny doesn't recognize it, not at first anyway, only that it's being pointed at Peter and Peter is fighting one of the clones and Danny can't lose anyone else and Danny will heal but Peter might not and-
The blast hits Danny in the shoulder as he pushes Peter out of the way. He didn't recognize the gun. He should have recognized the gun but Vlad had updated the Plamius Maximus since they last fought. Danny shrugged off the lightning like tingling sensation but choked as his transformation failed to return. He pushes himself onto his elbows as he hears the coughing. Peter is on his knees, hacking painfully.
Danny pales. The Plasmius Maximus takes away Danny's ghost powers. The same powers that kept Peter alive. The green underlayer of Peter's skin peels away to ash and Danny can do nothing. He screams at Vlad to reverse it, but the man Danny once knew is gone, an Obsession driven ghost in his place. Danny struggles to push himself up and towards Peter, clawing at the ground as he reaches for his roommate. Peter turns to Danny, cheek flaking off to reveal the campus scenery behind him.
"It's okay Danny. It's okay. It's not your fault. Please don't blame yourself."
With one last push, Danny lunges for Peter as the man disappears in a cloud of dust, like the other victims of the Blip. Danny had seen his teachers and neighbors get Blipped, but he'd had his family and friends. He'd had the abilities to help Amity Park through the five tough years when 2/3 of the population was blipped. That had been hard, losing Peter? Losing Peter hurt like seeing Dan, like losing his family again, like saying goodbye to Dani, like being vivisected. Peter was Danny's heart, the only one left in the empty organ. The ash floats around Danny's empty arms as he closes them around the empty air, swirling the gray flecks into the air again.
Danny wails.
And the whole campus feels it. Vlad feels it tearing apart his core. Danny stands, still without his ghostly powers. Vlad looks up to the boy, the halfa, and sees the King. The Ghost King waves Vlad's existence away like a fly, and he's ended.
Danny is The Ghost King, the Ruler of the Infinite Realms. Death itself. He holds the strings of souls long gone. He knows by using this kind of power, he'll never have a normal life. He'll have to be active in the Infinite Realms. He'll be forced to take the Crown of Fire and the Ring of Rage, and then he'll slowly lose himself.
For Peter, he will do it. For Peter, he would take on the world. For Peter, Danny will use this power to bring him back.
