~Aurora.Something had happened, I wasn't sure what it was. Something changed in me, in Ethan, again, I wasn't sure what it was but, I was certain it was a type of that I didn't want.It was certainly the type of change I didn't want.As I made my way to the guest quarters, I couldn't help but think of how in sync our hearts had been when I hugged him. I shouldn't have hugged him, I knew, but, I couldn't have ignored him also, not when he was so fragile and vulnerable at that moment.I mean, Ethan almost dropped a tear.Arne was already fast asleep when I stepped into the room almost breathless, the blanket with which he was covered was already pooled at his feet and I immediately figured he had long been asleep. Sighing, my eyes darted around the room; the time read something minutes to eleven pm and with the trolley of food still in the room, I could that the nanny had been with Arne just as Sam as promised.Quickly, I stepped into the bathroom to freshen up, as I hadn't gotten the

~Ethan.The girls started trooping in the day after the conversation I had with Mom but, even with all my attempts to concentrate on them, I could not seem to shake away the thoughts of my encounter with Aurora the previous night.One minute, I was heading back to my chambers and the next, I had my hands around her neck, trying my very best to keep myself from pushing her against the wall and claiming those luscious lips of hers.Her stubbornness aroused me. She was a sweet temptation and one thing was certain, I would not be able to hold myself back for long. It was only a matter of time before my strange surging desires for her consumed me and transformed me into something I wouldn't be able to control.The girl in front of me chatted away like she and the four other girls before her and the three others next to her had been trained and wired to do. Perhaps, I was supposed to be happy that finally, I was about to find the woman who would birth my successor but, the meeting with the

~Aurora.I narrowed my eyes and darted then between that two men. I was never aware that Ethan knew Reginald and otherwise. How did they even know each other?Throughout my stay in Sturgeon Moon pack, I had never, for once, met Reginald not to talk more of knowing that he knew Ethan. I only got to meet Reginald eight years ago when I went to seek a job in his hospital, and it was a bit awkward learning he knew Ethan.Reginald soon broke into a smile as he spread his arms wide and moved to Ethan.“Dude! Look at you.”Ethan smiled wider than I had seen him do in a long time as he moved to Reginald. They both locked each other in a tight embrace and patted each other's back. I couldn't take my eyes off them. For some reason I couldn't tell, it was hard to settle with the fact that Reginald knew Ethan and Ethan knew Reginald.“Man, I can't believe I am actually seeing you,” Reginald chimed cheerfully. “How long has it been, man? Thirteen years?”Ethan chuckled, “Eleven years, Reggie.”“D

~Ethan.“Man, Aurora is good at what she does, you know that right. I mean, that's why you called her down here.” Reginald said once Aurora was out of our sights, dragging me back to the present.I nodded, “Yeah, I know.” I managed to put on a smile, deep down, I was uncomfortable with the way he was casually talking about Aurora and Greece?What the fuck was that about?“I was quite worried when she told me she was going to be unavailable for some time and I only got to rest when I found out she was here because I trust that you will take care of her, yeah?” He asked rhetorically before looking up at Tiffany, who was still standing with her arm around mine.“You know she came back,” I raised a brow, and he nodded, “yeah, after she got better, she decided to come back home.”“Is she okay, though? Did the plague get her?”“No, she is fine but,” he exhaled deeply, “I have to go be with her right now. You know mothers and how they can be. Let's catch up some other time.” I took his outst

~Aurora.Arne became best friend's with Kelly in the subsequent weeks after our arrival. Though he claimed Audrey was his best friend forever, I knew him and Kelly would go a long way. I was always grateful for their friendship, and that evening was one of the days I was most grateful for them. After Arne and me left the park, we headed straight for the palace where we ran into Kelly on our way to our room and Arne sought immediately Kelly's company, giving me the change to find my way to Jessie. I loved my son but most days, I just wanted to forget everything and get lost in my head, to forget who I was and who he wa-Dammit! Not now brain!Jessie wasn't in the room the maids said was hers, so I ventured further into the kitchen and found her dishing out instructions. A billion sighs and a puppy eyes later, we made out to the garden.“Who would believe it's the first time we're seeing eye to eyes in weeks, even though we live in the same compound.” Jessie said as she sat on the ston

~Ethan.Aurora's reaction wasn't what I was expecting, but then, what really was I expecting? That she went on her knees and begged me not to marry another lady? That she told me I was stuck in her head the same way she has been stuck in mine since we met again.There was really nothing to say, even though I had expected her to say something. Anything at all. Aurora had moved on with her life, and it was high time I did too since the fate of the throne continuing throughout my generation depended on me.Tiffany was fun and smart and different and I liked her too, so why was I feeling bad about that? Why was the idea of starting afresh with her not settling well with me?On getting to the royal chambers, I stomped past my room and climbed up the rooftop. My mind was far occupied to welcome any amount of sleep in it, and honestly, I didn't really want to sleep. I wanted to think, to get lost in my head and maybe, just maybe, finally get Aurora out of it.The wind rustled against my hair

~Aurora.I have never felt as powerless as I was right now. For the first time in my life, my brain, and mind could not provide any proper suggestion for a real life problem. My mind was numb, my brain, dead, and my eyes, overflowing with tears.It was a really terrible thing to watch, heck! It was the worst experience of my life. Seeing my son quivering and shaking from some illness was worse than what I have experienced throughout my years of work. “Call an ambulance!” a voice yelled as the door to my room burst open as Ethan ran in with Sam racing behind him. “Call an ambulance, Sam!” He rounded the bed and took Arne in his arms, “hey son, keep your eyes open you hear me, keep your eyes open,”I had noticed Arne’s increased temperature last night after my conversation with Ethan but for some reason unknown to me, I brushed it off only to wake up in the middle of the night to a crying and shivering Arne. I panicked and shouted and Sam, who I supposed was doing his rounds, heard me.

Ethan.I paused to catch my breath in front of the door once it clicked shut behind me and to listen for any reaction from Aurora, when I didn't get any, I exhaled deeply and turned to Sam to see him narrowing his eyes down at me.I wanted to believe I was a bit close to achieving something with Aurora. Even though we had a love-hate relationship. Even though we had a fight last night. Had Sam not stepped in, I would have…“You said you weren't going to do it. Maybe that's why I had this feeling that you were lying.” “Where did you say she is?” I asked to deflate the question. The least thing I needed was Sam telling me how wrong it would be to have anything with Aurora. That I already knew, but no matter how wrong it was, I still wanted it.Sam cut me a sharp look before lowering his eyes, “by your car at the gate.”“And she didn't state the reason for wanting to see me?” I asked as I began walking to the gate.“Nah-uh.” Sam took to my side, "Is she the one?” He asked after a while.
