“Your Majesty,” a servant entered the king's study. He gently bowed and approached the desk. “The queen wants to see you.”“Let her in,” Lucian nodded. “Thank you.”The young man opened the door for Maya and she walked in with a radiant smile on her face. “Good morning son.”

Lucian just left his study. The prime minister told him that his son sent him a letter saying that he asked for a divorce from the prince of Exodius. Sir Wraith was so angry and disturbed that his son had to be humiliated at the Exodusian court. They concluded that he would send him and the royal secretary to discuss the matters with Erik and the king. A royal divorce was a thing, but losing an alliance with Exodius was the least thing Virtus wanted at the moment.Lucian's head was hurting because of lots of talking and lots of papers to read and sign.

Sander and Erik came back to the castle, their arms and legs were still shaking from their fear of the thieves, also the excitement and joy from the kiss they shared. They bathed and had dinner together.

Axel was shaking as he was scared for her. He sat on the floor and asked the children to come to him. He hugged them tightly and whispered good words to them so that they do not worry about their mother. Leon and Nathan joined the king to calm him down. They came with their night robes like the rest of people. "It is going to be alright, Lucian, do not worry." the chef said. "What if something happens to her or the child?"

Lucian's eyes grew wider as his child's voice caressed his ears. Leon smiled and
