Then it doesn't correct.
It's necessary to place the word The before of the subject.

The kind and queen.

The kind has a wonderful castle.

Suggests above.

I'm not sure I understand your post. In your earlier post you suggest dropping the definite article in front of "king" so that the phrase, instead of reading "the king and the queen" would read "king and the queen." That does not sound right to me. The two examples you just posted do sound correct:
The king and queen
The king has a wonderful castle.
