Royal Pain is a GabeNath fanfiction written for the GabeNath Reverse Bang by amsves. It is rated T for Teen (rating). The fic was beta-read by ReminiscentLullaby.

The premise for the fic is based on artwork created by lorrainingart.[1]

Fic Info

Nathalie wears a beautiful red, long sleeve gown. She holds a glass of wine and her phone in her hand. The room is yellow, with a single landscape painting on the back wall.
This art piece by lorrainingart served as the inspiration for Royal Pain.


Summary

Nathalie liked to think that she would make a pretty good king. If she had been born as the opposite sex, anyways. But as the facts were, Princess Nathalie Sancoeur had a duty thrust upon her that she would rather have not, all things considered: to be married to a foreign prince, in order to bring good fortune to her family and kingdom, and bolster their strength should the rapidly-cooling relations with one of the neighboring countries turn into a full-blown war. It was enough to make her gag every time she thought of it.

Reception

That was awesome! I love how strong-willed Nathalie is here, and it's fun to see younger versions of her and Gabriel. The fashion descriptions were great as always! And I love the way they bonded over not finding each other totally insufferable lol.

Wow, thanks for sharing this lovely AU with us! 💖💖

I felt very sorry for poor Nath, but I'm glad that in the end she was able to get rid of her mother's oppression getting what she wanted and be treated like a person and not a pawn!

Excellent! <3

This is a very interesting AU, the combination with modern devices genuinely surprised me. Also Nathalie standing for herself was my favorite part.

ahhhhhhhh yas!!! royalty au’s are so beautiful and this was just that! Nathalie was so herself! I loved that her people didn’t understand her “cold heartedness” and that Gabriel came to her rescue, left emilie, and wanted to marry nathalie on the spot 😍 so good so good
