“Certainly,” she said and walked over. She pointed with her hand open and introduced them, “In this bowl, you have the red grapes which are used in the wines the regent family and aristocrats enjoy. In the saucer lined with silver, you have pitted red cherries, in the saucer lined with gold, peaches. In the bloom saucer, you have green apples and the last saucer has oranges in it.”

Shawn nodded his head in understanding and said, “When I was younger, my mother would buy us bananas but they would be ripened to the extent that it was sweet, do you have any?”

The servant shook her head, “No my lord. In this estate, we neither have bananas because the Master is allergic to them and strawberries because no one besides her majesty is allowed to have them.”

    “His majesty granted our master three desires in return for divulging the coup -- he told his majesty the truth about him and Lord Hillroge. His majesty was not pleased especially because his children were to be married away. He asked our master what was the reason behind him telling his majesty the truth one year later and it had to do with the three desires. One, his majesty had to overlook who he wanted to be with and he should never suggest marriage again. Two, grant that he and everyone who wanted to be with those of the same gender, be pardoned until the day our master died and three, that if he found someone of no status or from the prisons, said person would have his past erased and never be questioned,” Miriam ended her history lesson. Shawn sat back in the chair and looked at her baffled, “So I was pardoned of all my crimes?” “Yes,” she answered wit

    He leaned down as he straddled Shawn with his knees to either side of him on the chair and pressed his cold lips against Shawn’s lips who immediately shook his head with a groan and opened his eyes. Shawn stared straight into Aldridge’s sapphire orbs then frowned.Aldridge raised a brow not happy that Shawn was frowning right after waking up and made to move but his movements were stopped by Shawn who held him down at the waist.Aldridge was surprised by this action and looked at Shawn intrigued as he asked, “What are you doing? Let me go.”“Where have you been for the last three days?” Shawn asked in a husky voice that made Aldridge tremble.Aldridge swallowed the pooling saliva and asked, “Since when does the master have to ans

    Shawn hissed in pain and shook it out. His knuckles were bright red from being hit the entire time by Lady Majordomo's wooden spoon.She looked down at him and said, "No slouching and push your hair out of your face!""It won't stay down!" Shawn growled at her earning another wack on his hand. He bit down on his molars and said, "I am trying okay."Lady Majordomo scoffed and asked, "Sandwich's are eaten at parties why?""So that our stomach's don't get upset," Shawn answered listlessly."Good, now, make sure that you remember your table manners. Elbow's off the table, no slouching and in most cases, you will not sit at the same table as our prince. You will be at a safe distance even in the presence of his majesty and her maj

    *Before Aldridge returned*Shawn walked through the estate mindlessly and aimlessly.Aldridge had said to him that he could choose his own fate. One, he could live under him and two, return to prison with the possibility of death on his head.He stopped at one of the window's and looked out of it at the night sky that seemed as lonely as ever. He dropped his head as his arms stretched out against the windowsill and thought, 'But to sleep with a man?''He did rescue me from living in that endless pit of nothing with rats for food,' he thought again.Looking at the darkness under his feet the image of Aldridge replayed in his mind when he climbed into the bath with his slim waist and wide hips. He released a shuddering breath as he felt his body buzz with goosebumps.He closed his eyes and thought back to those women with whom he spent the night with and frowned. Inside he felt nothing for them and yet when he thought of Aldridge who saved him

    The next morning Shawn woke up and Aldridge was not in bed next to him. He frowned slightly disappointed but got up and looked out the window at the sky outside. The chamber had a view of the backyard and garden but the seats in the garden were empty so where was he?‘What happened to wake up together and the morning kiss?’ Shawn asked himself as he stretched his limbs. He made his way to the bathing chamber and got ready with a slight gloom overshadowing him. He dressed up in casual wear that was suitable for training then went in search of this Prince of his who already broke a promise.He met the servants along the way to Aldridge’s office and asked as he looked at the multiple teacups counting two extra, “Is Master in his office?”“Yes he is Lord Shawn,” one of them answ

    Leonardo and Richard took forever to leave displeasing Aldridge who wanted to clear the air with Shawn and when they finally did leave, it was already evening and Shawn was not seen at lunch and dinner even though he was invited to eat with them.Aldridge went around asking where Shawn was and it was only when he spoke to Miriam that he got the report that Shawn was asleep in his chamber and the chamber servants attested her words.Aldridge rushed to the chamber and opened the door. Peeking his head in he saw that Shawn was lying across the bed without a shirt on and on his stomach with his eyes closed and mouth parted.Aldridge walked over silently and climbed on the bed. He kissed Shawn up his spine sending shivers all along his body then lied on Shawn’s back hugging him. Kissing Shawn on the side of his nec

    “No, you do not but what you have to do is to sit on the chair in the corner of the chamber,” Aldridge said with his back facing Shawn as he rummaged through a drawer.Shawn looked at the chair that was not too far from him and wanted to look back at Aldridge to make sure but remembered he was probably naked by now. He climbed off the bed and lost his balance for a split second when his shaft shot up.Shawn’s heart dropped when he saw that he was stiff as a rock and grit his teeth. Shawn sat down on the chair and saw Aldridge make his way over but did not look at his body.Aldridge was happy to see that Shawn was still erect, he placed the objects in his hand on the table near Shawn. He turned to Shawn and said, “I am happy to see that you have yet to calm down.”

    Aldridge woke up to the sound of cutlery dropping. He opened his eyes and looked around the chamber.“Finally awake My Lord?” Mrs Wright said as she placed down the teacup and saucer beside his bed.“What do you mean?" He asked as he looked around the chamber and saw that it was daytime already.“You have been asleep for the last two days,” Mrs Wright answered.“What? Why?” Aldridge asked as he sat up and winced from the pain that riddled his back.“Be careful,” she said and helped him sit up against the headboard.“It’s okay, where is he?” Aldridge asked referring to Shawn.

Sebastian groaned displeased, asking, “What is it now.”Shawn smirked amused, he turned to look at Aldridge, who was dragging Anthony and Matthias, who was covered in white powder to him. He stopped in front of them and said, “I am tired of you and your offspring. I’m going away. I don’t know where, but any place is better than this madhouse.”“As Aldridge was leaving, Sebastian yelled, “So you are leaving me with this mess?”“Deal with it!” Aldridge yelled over his shoulder and left.Shawn looked at his sons, who were just s

    Joshua’s screaming could be heard throughout the estate. Shawn was inside, holding his hand while Miriam and the servants were rushing.“One last push and baby number two will be out,” Miriam assured them as she held half of the baby’s body in her arms.Joshua looked at Shawn and felt dizzy. He took in a deep breath as he squeezed his hand, then pushed hard.Miriam guided the baby out and quickly cut the umbilical cord. She wrapped him in a towel and handed him to Lilith, saying, “Make sure they are clean.”Shawn wiped the sweat off Joshua’s forehead and kissed him on the lips, “You did so well.”Joshua forced a smile and said, “Shawn, you know I love you, righ

    The sun was setting and just as they thought they would have another quiet day, there was a knock on the door. Miriam was closest to the door and answered. She saw Richard standing there holding his daughter, and it looked like he had cried.At his feet were five bags, and it was as if she travelled into the past when he would sleepover. Richard looked at her sadly and asked, “Is there an extra room for us?”“I’ll let them know you are here. For now, you can leave your bags there and follow me to the family room.” She said and closed the door when he stepped in.Following her to the family room, he saw Prince Christian sitting by the fireplace, reading a book. Christian looked up and raised a brow. He looked at Miriam, who introduced who he was, then ignored Richard.She went to let Shawn and the others know he was here. Aldridge and Joshua went to see him while Sebastian stayed in his room.

    Shawn walked out of the estate with a thick fury coat on and waited as the carriage pulled up to the steps. Joan Coachman jumped off her seat and rushed inside, hurrying away from the cold.Shawn shook his head amused and walked up as the door opened and out stepped Hudson with a frown on his face. He walked past Shawn too after greeting and went inside to warm up.Alice stepped out of the carriage and looked at the beautiful estate covered in snow and when she laid eyes on Shawn, her eyes watered as she smiled. Rushing into Shawn’s arms, she said, “It’s so good to see you again, big brother.”Shawn chuckled, giving her a tight squeeze and said, “Now you know where I stay, so you should visit often.”Alice rolled her eyes and looked ba

    “I need to think this through,” Sebastian said, rubbing his forehead. He felt like crying, not even he could pull off something like this and in the end, she was not even executed. He looked over at Aldridge and asked, “So, did you kill my mother?”“I don’t know what the fuck she tried to do after I closed the cell door. She jumped off the bed and fell straight to earth,” he said.“So she really died like I suspected,” he confirmed.Shawn turned to Joshua, who was beyond angry and said, “Joshua, I know you disagree with the affairs I have and with what I do, but that is just how I am and I will never change. Even when I was with Aldridge, I let you walk into my life and it was not only you. But what I can assure you is that everyone that matte

    Three weeks later…Sebastian stood in front of the mirror with his shirt in his mouth and ran his hand over his stomach. “I can’t believe I am already showing. I even had to buy new clothes to hide this,” he complained.Covering himself, he walked out of the estate and to the carriage. He looked at Joann Coachman and asked, “Where do you plan to take me?”“I am only instructed to pick you up, not give you any information,” she said and faced the front. Joshua stuck his head out of the carriage and said, “Hurry or we will leave you behind!”Sebastian looked at him surprised and asked, “Why the hell are you here?”“Oh, it disgusts me too that you are going to be in here with my children. Just hurry so we can go see what Shawn wants us to,” he said, and pulled his head back in.Climbing instead, Sebastian saw that Agnus and Lilith were in

    Shawn’s heavy footsteps could be heard hitting against the concrete floor. He made his way down to the last cell and turned on his heels. He glared into the cell at the queen, who looked up at him blankly.“Are you comfortable?” He asked her.She lowered her gaze and said, “Ever since you entered our lives, things have gone downhill for the royal family.”Shawn raised a brow and smirked. “No, the moment you tried to kill Aldridge the first time, things went downhill for you. Aldridge never died once I came into his life.”She scoffed and lifted her gaze. Standing up, she walked towards the bars and said, “But he finally died, didn’t he?”Shawn stared into her eyes an

    Sebastian opened his mother’s door and looked inside. He saw her sitting on her bed, sewing something. Clearing his throat, he said, “Good morning, mother.”She looked up and placed the needle and shirt down she was busy with and smiled, “Good morning son, what can I do for you?”“I came to visit you,” he said as he walked over to her.Queen Katherine sighed, smiling she said, “Son, you are investigating me and the duke ordered that I should receive no visitors, not even from my own servants.”He looked at her and with a weary smile he said, “Things are not looking good for you mother.”“Sebastian, I am innocent,” she said.He shook his head unamused and went to sit down on the bed.
