Once ambassador to a princess from space, Annin Sessa is now just a (mostly) normal high school student with a secret fear of heights. The only person who knows? The very same princess, Nelle XI Yumin Rondar, now herself just a regular girl, who has sworn to help him keep his secret safe. The only problem: Nelle's ideas often cause more issues for Annin than they solve.
Can Annin survive his fear of heights and Nelle's wild ideas with his dignity intact? And, more importantly, why is the space princess so committed to helping him anyways? Could it be... love?
Despite My Fear of Heights, The Space Princess Still Loves Me! is available to read on Honeyfeed as part of the MyAnimeList x Honeyfeed Writing Contest 2026 - NOVELOUS Worlds.
