Dear father!
I believe that my first letter reached you successfully.As I wrote you in the previous letter, I went back to Promor with my husband and everything is fine between us.But I would like to visit the kingdom to take my ring back and not only, but also to pay you a little visit.As I know you always have courtesy visits to make, my husband suggested that I send you this letter in advance, as it might be in case you were not in the kingdom.So dear father, I look forward to your letter.Sincerely, your dear daughter.Dylan Seanford.Dylan finished writing the letter.He lowered the quill and lifted the manuscript, taking a quick look around.At the same moment the door was opened, he took a quick look and saw his husband close the door."Archie...""My love," Archie said, walking towards him.Dylan went back to reading his manuscript.Archie caught up with Dylan and kissed him on the cheek."What are you doing?" he asked, glanciDylan and Archie walked side by side towards the castle's training yard.As soon as they arrived Archie walked out onto a porch."Choose whichever sword you like," said Archie, introducing the sword table.Dylan went to the table and took a quick look at the swords above."Don't forget your protective gear," Archie said, pulling away from Dylan."Alright..."Archie crossed his arms and looked at Dylan.Dylan picked up a sword and then swung it.Archie frowned at the way Dylan wielded the sword."Too heavy," Dylan said, already handing back the sword.He took another one and did the same process."Too light… it might break…" he said, handing back the sword.He looked back across the table and Archie was looking at him.Archie suddenly felt someone approaching and turned.Who was going towards him was Ian."Your Imperial Highness," Ian bowed."Ian...""I heard from some servants that you
Dylan and Archie continued to talk, seated on one of the benches in the castle's courtyard. "After we visit Greavaria...is there another place you would like to visit?" Archie asked. "Hmmm," Dylan went into thoughtful mode and then chuckled."What?" asked Archie, being totally curious."The only place I know after Greavaria is the..."Suddenly a messenger rode passing through them at great speed.Both followed the knight with their eyes. The knight reached the foot of the main entrance to the castle, quickly dismounted from his horse and ran into the castle."I've never seen that kind of knight here in the castle," Dylan said."That knight is a messenger who is coming straight from the battlefield.""Huh! Promor is he in battle?""Yes. With the Wethage dynasty. The battle is already three months.""I see. I don't know this dynasty. And why are you in the middle of a war?""There are things I don't like to talk about..." he said
Dylan was sitting writing something and someone knocked the door. He lowered the quill and looked at the door."Who is it?""It's me Lizha!""You may come in!" said Dylan.Dylan went back to writing and at the same moment Lizha entered.Lizha was amazed seeing that Archie was sleeping snugly in Dylan's bed at the time. She ignored it all, went in and closed the door. Then she walked towards the table where Dylan was."I was just coming to ask you if you were going to have dinner with your husband or if you were going to have dinner with Mortícia..." she said, as soon as she arrived at the table, "but I didn't expect your husband would be here..." she looked at Archie.Dylan lowered the quill and looked at Archie."Haven't you heard about what happened?""Hmmm… what happened?""His cousin Firmin lost his life this morning.""Hmmm. I just heard that was the first general who had died in battle.""Yes, it w
Archie knocked the door of Dylan's bedchamber."I'm coming in," he said, already opening the door.As soon as he opened the door he saw Dylan sitting in front of the mirror having the veil on his head.He walked in and closed the door."Archie…" said Dylan, seeing him through the mirror.Archie wore a black surcoat, black pants, black boots, and a black cloak. Despite appearing to be annoyed, he was very handsome.Archie leaned against the door and crossed his arms."Are you sure you're not really a woman?" he asked calmly, looking at Dylan in the mirror.Dylan made a face of one who was totally horrified as he looked at him in the mirror."You always tease me," Dylan said."Huh!" Archie was speechless."It's already done, your highness!" said Lizha, pulling away from Dylan."Fine," Dylan said, standing up."The gloves!" Lizha handed him a pair of black gloves.Dylan held out his hands so Lizha could put the gloves on him.Archie si
The four people in white took short, slow steps towards the altar.Everyone inside the cathedral followed them with their eyes and at the same time the murmurs began.The four people took their places on a secluded bench and the murmuring continued."SILENCE!" said the emperor.Instantly the people inside the cathedral fell silent."Bishop! Proceed with the ceremony!" said the emperor."Yes your Imperial Majesty!" said the bishop.The bishop continued with the ceremony.Archie looked away and squeaked.Dylan was all flustered not knowing what had just happened.At that moment everyone sat down and the Mass continued with the Bible readings.Dylan turned and looked at the four people in white and then looked at Archie, his husband looking pretty pissed off.He is angry because of these four people who have arrived... who are they? he questioned himself, looking back at them."Watch out for Mass Dylan!" Archie said calmly."It's... It's
Dylan kept looking out the window, seeing his husband talking to Meggy.Meggy bowed and Archie bowed too. Soon after, he started walking towards the carriage.Dylan quickly lowered the curtain and walked away, returning to his seat.He rested his arm on the window ledge and looked thought it, pretending he was waiting for him.The door was opened and Archie entered. Dylan was still in the same position, pretending he didn't know anything.Archie sat up and relaxed against the seat.Dylan looked at him and Archie looked pretty relaxed.The carriage began to move.So he won't say anything? Dylan wondered, still looking at him.Archie felt Dylan's eyes on him and looked at his spouse."What's it?""Nothing," Dylan looked away."Alright."Huh! Is he not going to ask me anything else? Dylan wondered, looking indignantly out the window.After ten minutes the carriage stopped.Archie pulled b
Dylan woke up and felt a weight on his chest.As usual, Archie was sleeping on his chest.Dylan sighed.This man, He thought, still looking at Archie.Dylan ran both hands over his face.I could barely sleep, He thought, still having his hands over his face.I spent the whole night thinking about that Meggy..., He thought.Dylan dropped his hands and glanced at wall watch.It's still six in the morning... I woke up very early, He thought, still looking at the watch.He tried to push Archie away and failed."God! What have you been eating? You're so heavy..." he said, still trying to push Archie off him."Hmmm…" Archie mumbled as he snuggled into Dylan's chest."Get off the top Archie… I want to get up.""It's still early...""We have a trip scheduled for today...""Yes.. .but not now. Stay a little longer."Dylan sighed."Let's make Love?"Dylan shook his head and looked away.
"That's exactly what you heard my son. Have a child as soon as possible. Otherwise I will have no choice but to hand over the throne to your younger brother.""But…" Archie paused trying to figure out the reason between denying him the throne and assigning the throne to Arnold if he's younger and childless, "But father I---"Daniel interrupted him, "It's just like I said Archie. Now I want to rest. Please leave."Archie sighed secretly, being totally disappointed."Alright father"He rose, bowed and left as his father had requested.Archie walked out of his father bedchamber taking long, quick strides towards somewhere. He was really angry.He came to a door and opened it sharply.Inside the compartment was Ian sitting at the table writing something.Archie walked into Ian's office and closed the door with all the strength he had.Ian lifted his head, "What the…" he was surprised to see Archie in his office, "Archie… didn't you go on a trip?" he looked
