Part 3: Joining Andrew Tong in The Prince’s First Love Movie
The Prince’s First Love, starring Andrew Tong and Greg Duffy, is one of the hottest gay romances of the year. The storyline revolves around Prince Nicholas Valeheart, who, on his first day at the elite academy, made an enemy who was soon going to change his world.
Nicholas Valeheart, in disguise of attending St. George Academy to experience ordinary life, was actually there to woo Alice into a political marriage alliance. Given Alice’s Newtown family’s influence, Nicholas and his mother, Queen Victoria, knew making Alice the princess would secure the crown for Nicholas.
As Nicholas tried to create a chance encounter with Alice to seek her hand in political alliance, his plan was forced to flop by Alice’s best friend, Lucas Wilder. Despite being known as the bad boy, the top racer called Black Jackal, who the school stayed away from, Lucas Wilder actually cared about his people.
Realizing Nicholas was trying to force his best friend into a marriage she didn’t want, Lucas was adamant about making sure Nicholas would stay away from her. But in an attempt to ruin Nicholas and Alice’s chance encounter, Lucas ended up kissing Nicholas in front of the entire school.
From the unexpected kiss to a heated argument, Nicholas Valeheart and Lucas Wilder, despite the clear attraction between them, started feuding. For Lucas, Nicholas was a spoiled royal who was hiding behind the mask, pretending to be a humble royal.
Meanwhile the prince, who was used to having people give in to his demands, wasn’t pleased with Lucas clashing with him as he dug deeper to discover more about Lucas, an underground racer, and sent a special gift—a dog collar.
With the prince’s gift, Lucas’s hatred for Nicholas Valeheart crossed the line as he ended up at the royal palace. Nicholas, who was scheduled to appear in front of the livestream to share about his school experience, got an unexpected guest, Lucas Wilder, moments before his much-awaited public appearance.
Worst, Lucas couldn’t care less about Nicholas’s threats as he had the prince tied up behind the doors and went on to bite him to prove why he was called Black Jackal. Despite Lucas getting on his nerves, the prince was left aroused by Lucas’s tease in The Prince’s First Love.
With the press waiting, the prince feared for his royal family’s reputation. Just as Nicholas thought he could get Lucas Wilder away, the press caught them, and it was soon turned into a scandal with headlines about the prince riding a boy.
Queen Victoria was disturbed about her son’s ruined image and scandal as she soon got down to damage control by throwing a lavish New Year party and inviting Nicholas’s classmates. Her hope was for Nicholas to clear the rumors and woo Alice.
At the party, again Nicholas and Lucas stole the show for their clear hatred and growing attraction as they were forced to strike up a friendship that was soon going to start into a full-blown secret romance that could threaten Nicholas’s future as the king of Entrada.
