Nate would be her personal guard/retainer who gets beat by Rosa in battle alot but capable in his own right, when they team up to fight bad people they are in sync, learning to not be so uptight and relax/laugh with her silly but cute shenanigans (maybe later on he learns he's an actual long lost prince or asks to be by her side for life as a reward and becomes one though that'd make him a duke technically)
