Recognition
Mikhail stirs as he flutters open his sleep deprived eye lids. He rubs at them before noticing Xander sitting up in bed and reading a report from a stack of documents.
"Xander? You're up? And... Working?" Mikhail questioned as he observed the man flip to a different page.
"Mikhail? Yes. I have to say... I feel quite sprightly to be honest. Having escaped the clutches of death for the Nth time, I'm certain the God of Death is definitely waiting to get me in their clutches." Xander laughs as he placed the papers down and faced his son.
"Are you up for working? Shouldn't you rest longer?" Mikhail asked as he moved to stand up.
However, he stumbled in his steps since he had fallen asleep in an awkward position which had caused his legs to go numb. Mikhail grabbed at the air as he tried to keep himself from falling before being caught by firm arms.
"Careful." Xander said as he caught Mikhail's arm and supported him.
"Thank you." Mikhail replied a

The Unwanted Prince Fleeting Life
A soft blue glow pulsated as if it were beating to the rhythm of life. It lit up a corner of the dark room as murmuring resounded from around it."You really thought to question my authority in front of others?""... I merely worded out what I believed as a noble and a royalty from an alliance.""You forget your place. Before you are a queen, you were nothing. Who was the one who placed you in your seat? Crane your neck a bit more, and before you know it... the world will be spinning as your head rolls on the floor.""...""Do as told, Lilith. I won't repeat myself.""... I understand." Lilith replied in a subservient manner."Good." the Voice on the other end cut off before the stone dimmed out and turned red, signifying the end of the call.Lilith stared at the stone as it innocently pulsated before turning back to the translucent stone that it originally was. She furrowed her brows before lighting the oil lamp on the desk an
The Unwanted Prince Training
"Again!" William said as he paced behind Mikhail, observing him.Mikhail tightened his grip on the hilt and assumed to his initial stance. He could no longer remember how many times he had swung the wooden sword in his hands.The only thing on his mind was how the muscles of his arms felt as if they were burning and the sweltering feeling he was experiencing despite it being mid-autumn. The sweat that trickled down his forehead stole into his eyes as he finally lowered the wooden sword and turned to face William."M-may I take a break? My arms feel like they are about to fall off..." Mikhail asked as he wiped the sweat off his brows."We have not even been through this for an hour and you're already asking for a break?" William glanced sharply at Mikhail."... I... Sorry... I'm not used to this..." Mikhail said as he hung his head in shame."You requested to join the knights, yes?" William clicked his tongue as he grabbed a bag of water and
The Unwanted Prince In The Name Of Studies
Mikhail hurried down the deserted hallway of the palace as he made his way to where he remembered the library to be. He briefly recalled William telling him to head over after lunch.However, seeing as he had dedicated most of his time swinging his blade, he completely missed lunch having lost track of time. Hence, he was frantically looking for the library in hopes of making it in time by peeking through the keyholes in the ocean of doors.Although the hallway was regal and well adorned with intricate patterns, the doors remained similar and devoid of variety. Pinpointing the exact room the library was certainly became no easy task."Ugh... Where was it? They all look the same..." Mikhail sighed in a frustrated tone as he peeked into a keyhole and noticed a stack of books.Somewhere in the back of his mind, he had equated a large amount of books to being the library. Therefore Mikhail opened the door with little to no hesitation and lowered his head as h
The Unwanted Prince As A Matter Of Fact
"I have never seen you before young lad. Are you a distant relative of King Xander? Perhaps a cousin to Prince William?" an older man asked as he pressed his palm onto Mikhail's shoulder, squeezing it firmly."Nonsense. Even if he were a relative, only those from the main bloodline has silver hair. There is no possible explanation behind the fact we were made fools of!" Another man interjected as he slammed a stack of papers onto the desk in frustration."To think King Xander would not even think to discuss it with his councils. Did he think we would let him do whatever he pleases? With whose backings did he think we allowed him to ascend the throne at a young age?!""Even if he thought to keep the boy within the palace walls, there will certainly be those who cannot keep their mouths shut. It's a disgrace that he dared to bring a bastard child!""To think he did not even consider all these is preposterous!""What do you suggest we do then?"
The Unwanted Prince A "Heavy" Breakfast
"Good morning to you, bumpkin. Slept well?" William asked as Mikhail shuffled stiffly to the training ground."N... not really. My body felt heavy today. Stiff as well... Everything feels sore...""Which was why I told you to pace yourself. Now that you've learned the hard way, I'm certain you won't repeat it again." William said as he lifted his gaze from the shoelace he had been tightening."I guess...""Anything you want to share? Like the story crafted by those people from yesterday?" William asked as he got up from the bench and stretched his limbs."How did you know?""I told you to head straight back to your room and not to dawdle around. Other than strategy planning, they aren't useful in much situations. Love to run their mouths then blame others for their transgressions.""...""Well, get ready. I'm not going to give you a break today. I want to watch you swing your blade. Test it out on the dummy here." William said
The Unwanted Prince Ballroom Dancing 101
"I heard you met her." William said as he opened a thick book and briefly spared a look at Mikhail."Pardon?""My fiancée." William said it so casually that Mikhail scratched his head thinking about it."Well, yes? You didn't dine with her?""I was busy getting things ready for your first lesson. Didn't have anytime to entertain her. Besides..." William paused as the doors to the library were suddenly thrown open."William! There you are! I was looking everywhere for you." Aria said as she entered the room."She'll be joining our lesson for today." William continued as he gave Mikhail a rare smile."Huh?" both Mikhail and Aria turned to face William with a look of puzzlement on their faces.***"I don't know if you were informed, but the Winter ball will be held in a month from now.

The Unwanted Prince Ripple Of Change
A shriek resounded throughout the corridors as maids and knights find themselves searching for the source. When their eyes fell upon the doors of the ballroom they shrugged it off and went about their day. Of course, the same could not be said of the people within said room."Mikhail! What were you thinking?! My sincerest apologies Lady Aria. Did you injure yourself?" William asked as he hurried towards Aria and held her hands, holding her steady."Eh? Uh... I thought it was fine to do so... I got advice from someone who told me they were well versed in dancing." Mikhail scratched his cheeks flusteredly as he watched William attending to Aria."Well versed in dancing?! Unlikely given your performance. Who was it? Name the person who said it was fine to continuously spin your partner at every chance you get?! There's a reason why men twirl their partners occasionally during a waltz rather than constantly." William barked
The Unwanted Prince Buried Secrets
Light knocks resounded on the door as Xander briefly glanced upwards acknowledging the fact that someone else was present. However he did not reply the person as he continued to look through the paperwork piled on his desk."Your security is pretty lacking." Susie said as she leaned against the door frame, looking over her shoulders as she folded her arms."... I wouldn't say that if I were you." Xander replied, glancing at the ceiling before shifting his gaze back to the work at hand.Susie glanced towards the ceiling, taking note of the men he had guarding him. She huffed in slight amusement before heading towards the desk."Not another step forward," Xander said as he took off the reading glasses he had on and faced Susie with an unreadable expression, "Why are you here?""What? Since when did you decide to become so cold?" Susie grinned smugly as she shifted in her stance and placed a hand on her hip."I wonder. Perhaps it's when I found
