The Prince Who Forgot

The room buzzed with gentle panic the moment Jay opened his eyes. Servants who had been quietly whispering in the corners jolted upright. One dashed off instantly, others hurried closer, unsure whether they should speak or remain silent. Jay could only stare, unsure whether his heart should race from confusion or relief.

The man who first found him bowed low once more. “Your Highness, please rest while I call for their Majesties.”

Jay nodded numbly. His mouth was too dry for questions he wasn’t even sure how to form yet.

The man rushed out. Within moments, hurried footsteps echoed through the halls, growing louder and more frantic. The large doors slammed open, and a wave of warmth and authority spilled into the room.

A man and woman rushed inside.

The King and Queen.

Jay instinctively straightened, though he didn’t know why. Something deep in this borrowed body reacted to them with familiarity his mind couldn’t reach.

The Queen reached him first, cupping his face as tears pooled in her eyes. “My baby… thank the heavens.” Her voice trembled, elegant composure shattered by worry.

The King placed a firm but trembling hand on Jay’s shoulder. “You frightened us. What were you thinking, collapsing like that? You’re our youngest. You must take care of yourself.”

Jay blinked. He didn’t understand a word that came out of his own mouth when he stuttered, “I… I don’t…”

But before he could say more, loud voices erupted in the hallway.

“Move! Out of the way!”

“He’s awake? Stop lying!”

“I swear if this is some dumb rumor-”

Then came the stampede.

Six figures crashed into the room like a hurricane. Older but definitely siblings. Each with distinct presence, expressions ranging from fury to pure relief.

“Jay!” A tall man with stern eyes grabbed his shoulders. “You idiot! How dare you scare us like that!”

A woman with long dark hair flicked his forehead. “Are you stupid? Passing out during training like you’re made of glass?”

Another brother stood behind them, arms crossed, obviously trying to look calm but failing miserably. “You should have at least told someone you weren’t feeling well…”

“You can’t just collapse without warning!” one cried.

“You are so irresponsible!” another shouted.

Six siblings. All louder than the other. All mad as hell.

Jay sat there, stunned, watching them yell over each other, fighting for the right to scold him the most. Their voices were sharp, and their words carried frustration… yet underneath it all, he heard something else.

Fear.

Concern.

Love.

It strangled him, that realization. Strangers cared. Strangers loved him. Strangers were terrified of losing him.

This wasn’t like Earth.

No cold father, no absent mother.

Here… he mattered.

His chest tightened. The sensation was unfamiliar and overwhelming.

But as he opened his mouth to speak, the truth he had no choice but to admit slipped out:

“Who… are you?”

The room fell silent.

Confusion flashed across six faces. The Queen’s hands froze against his cheeks. The King stepped back as if struck.

“S-son?” the King murmured, disbelief cracking his voice.

Jay swallowed hard. “Where am I…? What is this place?”

The horror on their faces grew.

The siblings exchanged frantic looks.

“What’s going on?”

“You don’t recognize us?”

“This isn’t funny, Jay!”

“Is this some kind of joke?”

Jay could only shake his head helplessly. His heart ached, not from injury, but from disappointing people who clearly cared.

Before anyone could speak again, a chill shimmered through the air in front of him.

A floating screen appeared, translucent and glowing blue.

Jay’s breath hitched.

System Booting…

Welcome, Host!

Welcome to the Realm of Astrelia: The Land of Titles and Bonds!

Everyone in the room froze, eyes widening as the magical interface flickered.

Only Jay could see the details clearly.

Texts filled the screen faster than he could blink.

Available Genders in this World:

Alpha: Born leaders. Strong, dominant, and destined to protect.

Omega: Rare, fertile, highly cherished… often controlled.

Beta: Majority population. Stable and loyal.

Jay blinked at the highlighted line.

Current Host: Omega.

Note: Extremely rare royal Omega detected.

He looked down at himself, suddenly hyper-aware of the softness and delicacy in this new body.

Six siblings.

All Alphas or Betas.

Except him.

No wonder their circle of protection felt suffocating.

Body Information Accessing…

Error: Memory Fragmentation Detected

Original owner’s memories missing!

Unable to restore previous data!

That explained why he didn’t know them. Why this body knew them but his mind did not.

Host has fully reincarnated with soul dominance.

Congratulations on awakening in your second life!

Jay stared numbly as words continued scrolling.

Second life.

So he really died.

The accident wasn’t just the end -it was a reset.

The King regained his voice first. “Jay… my son… do you truly not remember us? Not even a little?”

Jay could see the way his shoulders shook, the fear buried behind his eyes. He wanted to reassure him. He wanted to lie just to stop their pain.

But he couldn’t.

His voice cracked. “I wish I did… I’m sorry.”

The Queen clung to him, arms trembling. Her tears stained his shoulder.

“It’s alright,” she whispered, though her voice was breaking. “You’re alive. That’s what matters. We will help you remember. We’ll protect you.”

The siblings stepped closer, worry replacing anger.

“We’ll explain everything,” one said softly.

“You don’t have to go through this alone,” another added.

“We’ve got you,” said a third, placing a warm hand on his back.

Jay’s throat burned. Affection like this felt unreal. He didn’t deserve this. Not yet. Not in this life… though a tiny part of him hoped he eventually would.

Before he could respond, the System chimed again.

Host! Since memories are unavailable, please allow this system to guide you!

This world is ruled by bonds and fates!

Your identity: Prince Jay Astrelia, Youngest Royal Heir

Only Omega in the royal bloodline.

The words hit him like cold water.

Due to rarity, Omegas are treasured…

…and sometimes claimed.

Jay’s hands trembled. A treasure could just as easily be a prisoner.

The screen glitched briefly before presenting one last line:

Warning:

Your destiny is far from simple.

You are fated to have two mates.

Jay’s heart dropped into his stomach.

Two?

Not one.

Two.

The siblings didn’t seem aware of the specifics, but tension flickered in their eyes as the glowing interface slowly faded from sight.

“Whatever this magic is,” the King said firmly, “we will handle it together.”

The Queen cupped his cheek gently. “You don’t have to fear anything, my sweet boy. You are loved.”

He closed his eyes, breathing slowly.

Loved.

The one thing he always wanted…

Maybe in this life, he could finally learn what that truly meant.

He opened his eyes again, meeting the worried gazes of the family he didn’t know… but wished he could.

“Thank you,” he whispered.

For now…

it was enough.

  • A King Does Not Walk Alone

    The throne hall doors shut behind them, and instantly Jay felt the weight of every crown in the world settle squarely on his shoulders. The air still tasted like the proclamation. High King. A title carved into the bones of history. The kind of title that could rewrite the world.Which was very inconvenient for someone who preferred books over political warmongering.Jay exhaled shakily. Luther remained exactly one step behind him… habit, respect, survival instinct… who knew. Jay turned and raised an eyebrow.“You walk beside me now,” he said, quiet but firm. “Not behind.”Luther froze. “Jay, I’m still of lower rank. It’s disrespectful to-”“Luther.” Jay stepped forward and took his wrist, gently pulling him to his side. “You were marked by me. You carry my future. You are one of my mate. And my mates should not walk behind anyone.”Luther swallowe

  • Day 7 With Luther: An Empire Kneels To One Heart

    The throne hall always felt too large, too grand, too carved out of legend for Jay to fit comfortably inside. Today, it felt worse. The crimson banners of Astrelia hung like watching eyes, and golden sunlight poured through the mosaic windows as if the sun itself wanted to judge him.Jay entered with the stiff posture of a prince who had not expected to become important overnight. Luther walked just behind him, the picture of composed elegance… and also wearing an outfit designed to make Jay’s brain short-circuit. A white off-shoulder crop top, sheer sleeves flowing like moonlight, and those white genie pants that fit his waist in a way that should honestly be illegal.Jay tried very hard not to look. He failed instantly.They stopped before the dais. Both bowed. The King and Queen stood tall, regality woven into their bones.The King spoke first, his voice carrying authority that shook the chandeliers.“Jay Varel Astrelia. The G

  • Day Six With Luther: People Should learn how To Knock

    Morning had the audacity to show up.Not that Jay was properly asleep. He had spent the last hour staring at Luther and trying not to panic about the glowing Sun Mark declaring a royal baby was now officially baking inside him. A child. An heir. Political dynamite with tiny socks.Luther, meanwhile, was sleeping peacefully in Jay’s arms like he hadn’t just upended empires and destinies overnight.Jay brushed a hand through his assistant’s silver hair, still trying to digest reality.A baby.His baby.The universe must really enjoy pranking princes.Before he could sink into deeper spiraling, the door slammed open without warning.“JAY! BREAKFAST!” Seraphine yelled… then froze.Behind her came all his siblings like a stampede of nosy royals: Theo, Celeste, Yven, Lucien… and of course, Crown Prince Aldrin .Jay and Luther jerked upright.Sheets slid just enough to s

  • Day Five With Luther: Falling Asleep Together

    The palace was unusually quiet that night. Jay lay awake, thoughts swirling like a storm, unable to forget Luther’s intensity from earlier. Every glance, every brush of his hand, lingered in Jay’s mind, making his chest ache in ways he didn’t quite understand.A soft knock interrupted his thoughts. “Jay? Are you awake?” Luther’s voice was low, almost hesitant.Jay sat up, rubbing his eyes. “Couldn’t sleep again?”Luther nodded, hesitating at the door. “Should I… stay?”Jay lifted a corner of the blanket, smirking slightly. “Only if you're not here to guard me. Obviously.”Luther’s lips twitched into a small smile as he stepped inside, closing the door softly behind him. He climbed onto the bed carefully, sitting at the edge before letting himself fall back, his shoulders relaxing only slightly. Jay’s heart thudded at the sight of him so close, the warmt

  • Day Four With Luther: The Ball and the Unspoken Steps

    The grand ballroom glittered with candlelight and crystal chandeliers. A soft sea of gowns and uniforms shimmered across polished marble floors, and the faint scent of roses and lavender mingled with the warm, golden glow. Tonight, the palace celebrated not just Jay’s upcoming coronation but his coming of age-a ceremonial acknowledgment of his eighteen years and the divine blessing that had set the world abuzz.Jay adjusted the cuff of his uniform nervously, catching sight of his reflection in a gilded mirror. Everything was perfect-the embroidery, the sash, the polished boots-but nothing felt as perfect as the heat pooling in his chest whenever he thought of Luther.A gentle tap on the shoulder pulled him from his thoughts.“Your Highness,” Luther murmured, bowing slightly before straightening. His uniform was tailored impeccably, black with silver trim, and his hair was neatly arranged-but a few strands rebelliously curled over his forehead,

  • Day 3 With Luther: Nightfall, and the Unspoken Invitation

    The evening sun spilled warm gold across the palace gardens. Jay and Luther had spent the day in a quiet rhythm training, reading, and teasing but as night crept in, an unspoken tension settled like a soft, heavy blanket between them.Jay stretched lazily on a chaise in his chambers, watching the shadows deepen. The library and training yard had been exhausting, but in the best way. His hair stuck to his forehead from exertion, and his heart still thudded from laughter, arguments, and those lingering touches from earlier.A soft knock came at the door.“Your Highness?” Luther’s voice drifted in, gentle, cautious. “May I… come in?”Jay smiled faintly. “I was hoping you would.”Luther entered, careful as ever, though his presence seemed to take up the entire room. He carried nothing but a small tray of tea and a soft, earnest expression. The silver in his eyes reflected the dim candlelight, and Jay fel
