Anna/Linda POV

“Good morning, Flint.” It was Goldstone.

“Anna.”

“You can call her Linda. I don’t want to confuse the people in addressing her. She is known here as Linda. Let it stay that way.”

Goldstone handed Flint a brown envelope.

“Thanks,” Flint said, taking the brown envelope and tucking it in his pants back pocket.

Then, Flint invited Goldstone to join us for breakfast, but the latter declined.

“I still have work waiting at the office.” He told us and nodded in my direction.

I appreciated his tact, and we smiled at each other.

Before Goldstone left us, he held Penelope’s hand, and our girl beamed.

“Kwin!” She said, pointing to herself, and Goldstone chuckled.

“Your daughter knew where she came from,” Goldstone murmured.

“Of course. She is my little Queen. And her mother is my real Queen.” Flint said proudly, making me blush.

I could not admonish him because I could feel the pride every time he spoke about us to people he knew.

How can you resent a man whose eyes sh

I hope he will do it fast because time is running out. “Let’s go,” Flint said when Penelope awoke. He took her bag and carried her in his arms. Then, he turned around to grab my hand, and we walked alongside each other. “Are we going to Briana’s place right now?”I looked at the time and noticed that we were still early. Flint shook his head. “Not yet. We are going to the restaurant. I am sure my little Queen is hungry.” He made faces at our daughter, making Penelope laugh. We went to Rosewood Hotel’s famous restaurant.At the entrance, we gathered attention, especially the father and daughter. Flint did not seem to care and ignored it. The manager showed us to a secluded table.“We’ll order something light,” Flint said, addressing the wait staff.He also ordered an assortment of fruits for Penelope. “I remembered Ma

Briana made it a point to include everyone. No one was left behind. Before we left, Briana invited all the cousins for a playdate.“On Sunday, let’s do this again. The kids loved it.”I could not agree more. Penelope loved hanging out with her cousins. “Expect us next Sunday,” Flint promised, smiling wide.I could see that the rift I inadvertently caused the siblings had been repaired, and my heart eased somewhat. He exchanged fist bumps with his brothers - Charles, Rowan, and Marcus. Then, Noah. “Let’s have a girl bonding, too,” Hanna suggested.“We will do a manicure and pedicure at the hotel,” Briana said. “Okay, but let Marcus pay for it,” Martina said, looking at her husband, who gave us his approval by st

    Flint POVI saw the excitement on her face and toned down the green-eyed monster that was raring to go out of its shell inside me. Anna needed my cooperation, not my resistance. She needed my strength to provide her a haven from life’s raging storms. Her eyes made quick work of her mobile phone, searching for something. Then, her expression lit up. It was as if she arrived at a Eureka moment. “I already found his secretary’s number. It’s in my contact list. I will call him now.” She explained, eager to be done with the deed. I grabbed the phone from her hands and placed it back on the bedside table. “Flint!” She protested.Her head lifted as she followed the direction my hand was going. “Do it tomorrow,” I told her sternly.Anna pouted. “It’s morning in Arkadia today. It’s the best time to call.” She argued, but I was determined to dissuade her from pursuing it now. Timing is always important when taking crucial actions. Plus, her overexcitement does not bode well for me. I

I missed you.” Flint said tenderly. I bit my lips because they sometimes get ahead of me. Like right now, I could not stop them from extending at the corners because of how Flint looked at me - like I was the most beautiful thing his eyes laid on. I lifted my hand to cover his face. “Don’t.” Flint peeled my hand away and kissed the back of it. “What?” “Don’t cover my eyes because I want to fill them with this image of you. I want to etch this morning in my memory to remind me of when we were both old and gray.” He told me. I felt a twinge in my heart. His openness filled me with a warm feeling inside. “I like the idea of that.” My voice sounded hoarse because his words affected me very much. He stared at me, waiting for me to expound.“Growing old together. I never had anyone tell me he wa

I was dumbstruck, unable to move. Just a while ago, Flint and I were discussing reaching out to him through Goldstone, but the plan was already useless since he was in front of me now. Logan vacated his chair, and in a slow motion, he approached me. I stood frozen on the spot. My brain was not working. Should I leave, or should I stay?My eyes surveyed the cafe, looking for an escape route, if ever. Logan tutted, making me look sharply at him. It was like he guessed what I was doing. Well, we grew up together. Logan knew me. “Relax. It is just me.” He was trying to placate me.Despite the assurance, my head was screaming at me to take caution.This man followed me here from Arkadia, that I was sure of. Otherwise, he would not pretend to be a client to score a meeting with me.My eyes narrowed into slits when he

She turned a little to eye Penelope, running toward her cousins to make sure she did not trip on her way. “Of course. Penelope is our little Queen.” She kidded.“Good luck!” Briana called out before closing the door to their suite.“Let’s go?” I asked Flint, and we walked together to the meeting room, Of course, I am bringing Flint with me. Me, taking the crown would affect his life, too. I wanted to get his two cents worth on the table and see how we can work out our lives around this recent development.

This is my home.” “Cool. Almost as big as my Daddy’s hotel. Is there a revolving restaurant inside? Can we go see?” He asked eagerly.Briana nudged him, and he zipped his mouth shut. Anna smiled. “There is no revolving restaurant in the palace, but we have wonderful amenities inside.” She offered and started walking toward the main entrance.Riley stopped when we passed by a uniformed royal guard who stood to attention upon our approach. Riley, ever curious, poked the man’s side. “Why doesn’t he move? And what was that in his head?” Riley asked, pointing to the tall ceremonial military cap atop the royal guard’s head. “Shh! Riley!” This time, Briana sounded stern.No one spoke after that. Each one is taking in the

    Anna/Linda POVWhen the plane disembarked from the airport’s tarmac, nerves attacked me, and I gripped Flint’s hand.He misinterpreted.“Don’t worry, dear. I am here.” Flint squeezed my hand.I looked at Penelope strapped on her FAA-approved car seat, which Flint’s secretary sent.She was smiling at me. “Mommy! Fly!” The happiness on her face calmed me. I smiled. “Yes, we are flying, sweetie,” I told Penny and chucked her under the chin. She was using Flint’s tablet while watching a movie. When the plane took off, Flint pointed at the window beside her to show the view outside while he never let my hand go. When Penelope lost interest, she resumed watching the movie. Flint turned his attention back to me when I unclasped our hands. “You are not frightened anymore?” He asked. “I was not frightened during take-off, I was worried about what awaited us in Arkadia,” I admitted. When we reached cruising altitude, Flint hugged me close. “Let’s keep our fingers crossed.I could o

    Flint POVNoah came just as we were finishing our meal. “Got a minute?” He poked his head in,Briana beckoned him to come in, and he walked to the table where the three of us were eating. He placed his hands on the balls of Briana’s shoulder. Briana, on the other hand, took Noah's hands to squeeze them before she tipped her head to receive his kiss. The affectionate gesture made me smile inwardly. They had been married for more than ten years. They divorced, separated, and found each other again. Seeing them together like this, no one can deny the love that flows and connects the two. It was hard work, but they are making it happen. “So.” Noah sat beside Briana and munched the apple slice he snatched from her plate. “We already cleared the hotel. The paparazzi and the police are gone.” He informed us after swallowing. “We can leave?” I asked, feeling an easing in my heart at the news. “Yes.”“Were you able to keep Anna’s identity under wraps?” Briana asked, pulling Noah's a
