“I insist.” Rhode said and reached for his bag, bringing out a wrapped piece of pastry.
Melody took one look at Rhode and Brian who gave a small nod, “thank you.” She said and took the food from Rhode’s hand.
“You can sit.” Rhode said to her and she took a quick seat in front of both men. She unwrapped the pastry and the fresh scent of the pastry hit her nostrils, “it’s fresh!” She said excitedly and Brian smiled, “we use a special wrapper that traps the heat. It remains fresh for up to ten days.” He told Melody.
“I see.” She said, “Thank you.”
She bit down on the pastry an

Megan stood at her opened door visibly taken aback.“Hello.” Megan said awkwardly, who was this girl?Melody stood at the door, looking at Megan as if studying her features. The encounter made Megan greatly uncomfortable.Megan broke the silence and said, “Do you work here? Are you here for something?” She asked Melody, referring to her uniform.“No.” Melody simply said.Megan looked at the girl and was beginning to feel creeped out, Margaret assured her that the inn was safe and secure. There was a strange girl standing outside her door who was just looking at her and she was unsure of how to handle the situation.“Okay. Well, goodb

“How was your night?” Rhode asked as he took his seat opposite her.Megan was wearing a red dress that complimented her deep red hair. From what he say, it was a flowy dress with an accentuated neckline. The glimpse of her neckline he saw was exquisite. She was showing a bit more skin than she did when she was still queen of the East and he was not opposed to it.She looked divine in everything.“I slept well.” She said and took a breath, “How did you sleep?” She asked in return. Megan was unsure of how to ask him about Melody. If they were still lovers, she did not want to make it seem as though she was interrogating him on his history with women before her. She was married to a man just a day before after all.“I-”

Brianna froze in her steps.“I mean, you can stay if you need to. Please do not let my presence disturb you.” A concerned Brain said.“Oh, thank you. I shall stay, then.” Brianna said, walking towards one of the trees. As she got underneath it, the breeze on her skin felt wonderful.She was still hyper aware of Brian’s presence close to her. They stood under trees that were next to each other.“I have been wanting to apologize.” She heard him say, “what?” she asked, unsure of what he said.He walked towards her and said, “I have been wanting to apologize.” He repeated.Brianna flushed and said, “Oh, please.

Brianna stood wide-eyed, watching Brian as he approached her and the other two ladies.“Hello, ladies, Brianna.” He acknowledged them, calling Brianna’s name made the hairs on the back of her neck stiffen.Why was he singling her out?“Hello, sir Brian.” Brianna said. Mia and Rona also acknowledged his presence though Rona was doing a poor job at hiding her very obvious crush on him.“May I speak with you?” He asked her, Mia and Rona stared at her as though she had a second head.“Alright…” She responded. He stretched out his hand, leading her to his front.After they were a considerable distance away from pe

In Rhode’s carriage, he was thinking about how to break the awkward atmosphere between him and Megan.He thought that giving her the necessary information about Melody would help but Megan had not looked at him since then.What was she thinking?He hated to start on a bad foot with her, on their first day back to the Western Kingdom.“Penny for your thoughts?” He asked, trying to sound casual.Megan was in deep thought about a lot of things. It was farthest from her intentions to seem awkward or distant.She was just unsure about how to not be so affected by the Melody situation. Although Rhode had assured her that she was nothing but an old friend, memories of h

Megan was more excited than nervous to her own surprise. The buildings moved closer as they rode faster.She sat back down to face Rhode, a light smile on her lips. “Are you good?” Rhode asked her, unable to tell what was going on in her mind.Megan nodded and said, “nervous.”He acknowledged her feelings with a tight smile and said, “ I’m returning home with the most beautiful bride. They should be nervous.” Megan laughed, “you always know when to crack a joke Rhode Wales.Rhode chuckled lightly, “you will make the best queen.”Megan gave a small smile. That was what everyone said before she became Richardson’s wife and queen of the East. It sounded like an innocent compliment then but now that she thought of it, it felt almost like a trap to be the best there has ever been. Not that she planned on being anything short of that though, it just set really high expectations for her and because she was Megan, she always managed to overcome anything that would easily drown the common p

The silence that followed Rhode’s announcement was almost deafening. For a moment, Megan felt as though the ground would be very kind to open up and swallow her.Suddenly, she heard the sound of someone clapping, and one by one the sound of clapping grew more and everyone was standing.“Welcome, our future queen.” Lord Rosebud said, approaching her with outstretched arms.The gesture took Megan by surprise but she was very glad. She hugged Lord Rosebud and for the first time since she stepped out of the carriage, she left Rhode’s hand. “Thank you.” She said to him,Rhode took her hand back in his and she smiled back at him. He leaned and whispered in her ear, “the worst part is over. We’ll be back at your temporary quarters shortly.” She nodded in response.One by one, every person that was present came to pay their respects to Rhode and Megan.“I am glad the King has finally found a good thing.” One of the old men said.“Welcome to the West.” Another said.“It’s good to finally have

Brian and Brianna walked awkwardly out of the room and Brian mentally face-palmed himself and muttered “stupid.”He had made Brianna upset with him by stepping back but the reason he did that was because he did not want her to see just how flushed he was.As they walked down the same hall they followed to Megan’s new room, they approached the intersection and Brian said, “I should take you to your room or do you rather be reunited with lady Rosetta?” He asked her. She was avoiding eye contact with him, “I do not think I have the strength right now. I would rather be in my room. Do I share a room with Rosetta?”“I would have to see with the head of palace affairs. I could take you to my room in the meantime, to rest.”Brianna was sure that she flushed red, “Oh, no! I would not want to impose and, is that allowed in the West?... I mean, we are unmarried after all.” She said the last part in a low voice.Brian chuckled, “I suppose not but who actually follows that rule set by prudes? Mor

“It’s delicious.” Megan said as she took her first bite out of the deliciously roasted venison.“It’s lamb.” Rhode said as he took a bite out of it.The two enjoyed a quiet lunch. Apparently, it was a rule that the king could not eat alone under any circumstance. There needed to be servers with a physician present in case there is a risk of food poisoning.Another thing that was very different from the East.After dinner, the couple walked back to Megan’s chambers. She didn’t show it but she was very glad that she didn’t have to continue with her little charade of being unemotional.She did it for years in the East but the thought of doing it again stressed her. She was grateful that she could be herself, whatever that meant and wasn’t quite ready to take on the role of the stoic queen.She didn’t show it but she was glad Rhode didn’t leave her to her thoughts and assumptions though he was late and she had already jumped into a million and one conclusions.When they entered her room,

Megan froze as he walked towards her, pulling her towards him. His hand rested gently above her waist and his other hand, supporting her neck. She was frozen in shock, at a loss for words. “I’m sorry.” Megan could not ignore the pounding of her heart. It felt like anyone within hearing distance could hear, she was sure Rhode heard it. She stuttered, and she never stuttered, “I don’t understand…, my king.” That did it. “Oh, for heaven’s sake, Megan. Don’t do that with me, not you. I’m not my king to you.” Rhode paused. “I’m Rhode. Just Rhode.” Rhode held her eyes, his deep purple eyes boring a hole into her eyes. She had never been in a stare down before but she was clearly losing. Megan kept quiet, unsure of what to say in response. She was not upset at him for anything he did or did not do but she did have a resolve until just now. And Megan never broke her resolve but a deep purple pair of eyes staring into her soul was making her reconsider her decisions. “Is it somethin

“Never, my lady…”“We would never think of such a thing.” Mary said to Mirabel, eyes filled with worry.Where was this suddenly coming from?Mirabel smiled, “I see. Let us go.”Mary and Lily both looked at themselves before following behind Mirabel. She was acting strangely but they knew to not ask questions. It was not their place to.In her room, Megan was actually surprised at the fact that she shed no tears despite the fact that she felt her heart physically shatter.Perhaps she cried out all her tears in the East.‘I did cry a lot.’ She thought to herself.

Mirabel? Who was this woman? Was he not going to introduce Megan? She stood beside Rhode while he and this unknown woman who looked very known to Rhode engaged in a staring competition with Rhode and he with her.Was this tension she felt?“My king.” The unknown woman curtsied and walked past her and Rhode.“Let us go.” Rhode said to her. Megan was greatly confused but masked her emotions. Was he not going to tell her who the lady was? Mirable, was it? She thought she heard him call her that.He continued pointing out different places to her but if she was being honest with herself, she heard nothing that he said.In fact, she was beginning to get pretty upset. She wasn’t asking for his entire history, she just wished he would tell her about people she would eventually see.Like that girl back at the inn and now this, Mirabel.She didn’t look like a nobody. She was dressed like a lady and had ladies with her.Did she live in the palace? She must since she was in the west quarters.M

Megan turned a very bright shade of red, “what?” She blurted out, flushed. He was flirting way more than usual lately.Rhode chuckled. He admitted to himself that he did things intentionally so he could see Megan turn a bright shade of pink. He loved watching the stoic Megan Brighton getting all flustered.“You always tease me.” She said, plopping down on her bed, pouting.“I’m not teasing, my queen. I did miss you.” Rhode said, taking a seat at her vanity, where he had sat earlier.“I know I’ve asked this before but, how are you? Do you like it here? Do you like your room?” He paused, “Is there anything I can do to make you more comfortable?”Megan smiled. He really was mindful of her.“You don’t have to worry so much about me, Rhode.” “I am very comfortable.” Megan paused, “Although, I can’t determine how things will be after the wedding.”“That is true. Nonetheless, I’m sure they would love you.” Rhode said, very sure.“They?” Megan asked, unsure of who he was referring to.“Your

Rhode never opened the letter because he had no plans on ever getting married and thought that the letter would be filled with advice he was never going to have any use for. However, after he decided on his mission to the East all those months ago, he started to think that maybe he would have use for the letter after all.His plan did involve wooing Megan Brighton but a part of him did not believe he would be able to pull it off. She was married to her mate after all.Who would have thought?He broke the seal and opened the letter, met face to face with his brother’s nostalgic handwriting.He had often gone back to reread the other letters, which were helpful tips on how to be king, not that he took most of the advice. He and Michael had different ways of doing everything. It was the thought that Michael put into writing them, despite how ill he must have been that warmed his heart.Michael knew that Rhode would find the box.I’m writing this last because knowing you, you would probab

Brianna did her best to hide the surprise she was sure was evident on her face, “sir Brian.” “Hello my lady, do you have a moment?” Brian asked her. She looked into the room to see Rosetta raising two thumbs to her, giving her the go ahead. “Okay.” Brianna breathed, closing the door behind her. The two walked down the hall and took a left turn down to the palace grounds. “I wanted to see you,” Brian started, “It troubled me that it seemed like we left on a bad foot earlier today.” “Oh.” Brianna said softly. She did not think he noticed. “Yes, I meant it when I said I would like us to be friends. I hate having misunderstandings.” Friends. That was the only word that rang in Brianna’s ears. Were they friends? “I understand Sir Brian. I did feel someway seeing you flinch at me but I now realize that you probably do not like it when people touch you. I should have asked before reaching for you.” Brianna said simply. For some reason she felt really flushed despite the fact that th

Richardson got up quickly from the floor which had been his bed since the day of the divorce. He unlocked the door and rushed outside. He was met face to face with Lord Anthony, his chief advisor.He thought there would at least be a few people at the door but it was just Lord Anthony. The one person he really did not want to see.“Your majesty…” Lord Anthony began. He always wore such a stern and strict look on his face. Richardson could swear that he had never seen him crack a smile. Voluntarily or involuntarily.“Good… day, Lord Anthony.” He said, unsure of what time it was.“I cannot believe I had to lie that something is wrong with the mother of your child to get you to leave your chambers, my king. It has been two d

The sound of Megan screaming was almost deafening. Rhode shut his eyes immediately, “I apologize!” He said, taking a step, then another backwards until he was out of the room. As he shut the door, he said “I promise, I did not see anything.”Inside the room, Megan was flushed. Truth was, she wasn’t undressed or improperly dressed. She was standing in front of her new vanity and taught to decorate her hair with what was left of the flowers. She had just started to realize how ridiculous it looked and was about to take them out when the door flew open.She looked at herself in the mirror, cupping her face, “did he really not see anything?”She sighed and reached for the first flower petal sticking out and laughed at herself. She never thought to do anything this silly when she
