FATED TO A TYRANT
“You have to let it go, Dad. Willa’s pregnant and leaving, and soon enough, I will be too. It’s inevitable.”

“Ah, yes… It is.”
Grandpa paused and eyed William for a moment, and it was enough to make my brother put his leg down and in a proper manner that was fitting for a man his age and background.
“The parley went well to a certain degree,” Grandpa finally said, making everyone in the room sit firmly and straight in eagerness to know more. “But it didn’t end the war.”
