“It is all right. I will inform him,” the Prince responded, and got up. He walked to his parents, who were through with their meal, and were just relaxing and waiting for Sir Gilmore and his guests to leave.“My father, Sir Gilmore, has a message for you.”“That's good. Let him come,” the King said, and adjusted. “All right, my father,” the Prince said, and left. He returned with the four and made them to sit comfortably.“Welcome once again, my in-laws,” the King and Queen greeted cheerfully. Now, Sir Gilmore and his wife were comfortable with the title, and he corrected, “Thank you, my King. We had mixed things up. I believe that you mistook Alfred for my relation.”“Certainly. I thought he was your nephew, and under your care.”“Not at all. He is my son's friend, and he is a very nice chap. Many people assume the same.”“That is interesting. All the same, you and your wife are my in-laws.”“Yes. You are our in-laws,” the Queen responded happily, and the laughed softly. Meanwhile, t

Sir Gilmore and his wife left with the relieved guests. Nevertheless, the family had returned to the parlor, and the Prince was exhausted, and needed to take a rest. Then he called his parents' attention, “My father, I will take a rest. Kindly Let me know if you still need me.”“Take your seat, my son,” the King requested. The exhausted Prince obeyed, and sat down.“I think we need to know. What do know about Alfred's mother? She was not mentioned at all in our conversation.”“Neither did she come with them for the son's wedding,” the Queen added. The Prince shook his head in disapproval, and said, “I have no idea about her.”“Did you see her the time you visited?”“Not at all, my mother. Meanwhile, I didn't visit Sir Walter's house. We had lunch at his old man's home.”“It is all right. We will talk more about that. You can leave,” the King proposed. The Prince got up straight away, and greeted, “Okay, my father. Later.”“Later, dear,” the Queen added, and the Prince left. The couple

The King quickly put himself together and dried his tears. He rested on his wife's chest, and she caressed his back. After a while, he requested, “I think the Prince should know about this at once.”The Queen stopped caressing him abruptly, and gave him a searching look, “Do you think that he should?” She asked. Without a second thought, he responded, “Yes. I have made numerous mistakes. I need to remedy as many as possible immediately.”“If that is what you want, it is okay by me,” she accepted. The King got up and looked at the time. It was a few minutes past 11 PM. and he picked up his phone, “I will call him right away,” he announced.“He must have gone to sleep,” the Queen made clear.“I need to settle this now,” he insisted, and dialed his number. Unfortunately, the Prince was on another call, and he decided to give him some time. Nevertheless, he needed more clarifications, and he asked, “By the way, why were her dates humiliating her? Could it have anything to do with her perso

The Queen mildly narrated the full story to him. At that juncture, the Prince's demeanor changed from worry to sympathy. He looked at his father's face, and encouraged, “My father, don't be mad at yourself. You wouldn't have done it under normal circumstances.”“You are right, my son. Thank you for your understanding. Appreciate your mother on my behalf for watching my back all the time.”“Thank you, mother, for taking the initiative to secure the baby. Who knows what the maid would have done with the pregnancy?”“You are welcome, my son. Thank you for accepting to bond with her. It made the burden very light for me.”“That was the least I could do, my mother. You are a wonderful mother to us. I can't imagine life without a sister like her.”Nevertheless, the King was not through with the unburdening of his heart. Then, he asked, “How do I break the news to her? How do I look at her face and introduce myself as her biological father?”They looked at him for a while before the Prince s
ENSNARED BY HIS STRANGE PROPOSAL The Honeymoon
Alfred could not believe that he was married to a Princess, and many questions remained in his mind. After they got into their room, he pulled her closer to himself, and cupped her face with his hands. Then they looked into each other's eyes, and he asked, “Mira, did I coerce you into loving me, or you love me from your heart?”Mirabel laughed softly, and asked, “Did you ever coerce me? I'm not aware.”He laughed too, and looked away briefly, before he looked into her eyes again. Meanwhile, he vacillated between confessing, or allowing things to remain a secret, and he responded, “I love you, and I am certain that you love me too.” He kissed her forehead, and led her to the couch. He laid on his back, and she rested on his broad chest.“I love you too, my heartbeat,” she whispered. She raised her head and gave him a quick kiss and inquired, “If I may ask, when did you start loving me?”“The first time I saw you.”“When was the first time? Was it when you were furious about your ruine
