I woke alone, and May helped me find a suitable gown for today. I have spent a lot of today accepting gifts, well wishes, and congratulations from people.Sometimes, I have been with Kellan, other times with Darius, or both of them. Right now, I'm sitting with Darius; people have been coming up and wishing us luck in our marriage. It's nearly the end of today, which I'm grateful for; I've spent most of my time sitting in this chair.Many address me as Your Highness, which I hate, but I can't fight them on it. I can see Darius finds it hilarious. It's like before, but instead of asking for things, people offer their blessings and such.This time, Darius is smiling, laughing, and talking. The last time we were in this setting, he was cold and heartless. I've seen people from all walks of life, the children without parents, the servants of those big packs. I've seen the ones who have more money than they could possibly need.I shake the little girl's hand, and she bows to me before walki

Waking up, I get ready and walk down. "Sage and Lyra are busy this morning.""Thank you, Ash. That's fine." I smile at him and walk through the halls. I stop when I see Kellan and Darius sitting with Bailey and a small boy.Pushing it out of my mind, I walk past and go into the main room. Sitting, I eat, and their family talks to me. They seem nice enough, but I feel like I'm missing something. Soon after, Bailey walks in with the boy. I watch as she sits next to me.Smiling at her, I continue to eat."It's nice to officially meet you, Xenia." I turn to her and smile."You too, Bailey.""This is Quinn, my son." She smiles at me."Hello, Quinn." I give him a small wave and watch as the table clears, leaving me alone with her."I apologise if it seems like I'm taking up all the prince and king's time; we just have a lot to catch up on.""No apology needed." I smile at her."We ended things quickly, which I now understand was wrong." I nod but don't reply. "Kellan is such a sweetheart. H

Darius is guiding me through the palace. Walking into a room, I see Kellan. He grins at me."And I got told off for breaking the rules.""Don't start. We should have the results soon." Darius looks at him turning I stare."How?""I'm sorry, I had to make it look like I accepted it, so she trusted me. I got a maid to do it while she was with you. I just didn't want to get you involved."I don't answer. I just move and sit next to Kellan. Darius sits on the other side of me."So now what?" I look at him and hear the door. I watch as Bailey walks in, followed by Grant. Why do I feel there is more to this?"Darius?" Kellan looks at him, so he doesn't know either."Sit, please," Darius speaks, and they move to sit down. "Right now, they will be bringing me the results back. Something does not add up. You defending her and bringing her here makes no sense." He looks at Grant and then turns to Bailey. "You refuse to take the test, a test that could prove you weren't lying. Then you are also

The wedding has gone amazing, and Kellan did well with keeping William distracted. I've noticed he hasn't had time to come back to watch me since Kellan introduced him to some people.My arms are wrapped around Darius's neck as I smile up at him."It's getting late, you need sleep." I laugh at Kellan as I feel him stop behind me. "Well, I tried behaving. That's the main thing." He laughs, and I nod.I don't want to sleep. Going to sleep means today ends, and despite the last few days, today was amazing. It was relaxed despite it being the wedding. I know soon after this, I will have to go back in front of the cameras and such.So, right now, I don't want today to end. Darius' finger pushes my chin up, so I face him. He's smiling at me, and I don't like it. "Should you not, I don't know. At least say hi to Sage and others alone. Without us?"I should, but I don't want to. "No, I will see them tomorrow in the real world."Kellan laughs behind me. "This is the real world.""No, this is p

I sit and watch them, Kellan is behind me with his body wrapped around mine."Tired?" I look at him, and he nods. "Blame Darius.""I do! We told him it wouldn't work." He laughs, and I watch Darius walk in. The babies are in their chairs, finally settled."I'm sorry, okay?" He looks at us, amused."So, bedrooms?" He thought giving them each a room would work, we objected but agreed to put the girls in one, and boys in another, purely to prove a point."Okay, I was wrong. Keep them together in one room for now." He sits down, and we laugh."I told you it wasn't ideal while they were still young." He didn't want to believe it."I'm tired. Stop picking on me. Apparently, tiredness plus me equals dumbness and loss of brain cells. I don't even know why I suggested it because I know it was stupid."Yet he did, actually, he suggested each having their own room. I can understand, though; they are four months, no longer tiny babies, but still, separating them at night was a bad idea.I watch a
