husband, the king, was home safe. He reached over and placed his strong hand against my cheek, pulling me in for a kiss. When he let go he said, “I promise to love you.”
The baby cooed in the corner awaking in his father’s presence. Kit smiled over to me before gently picking him up. “Say hello to Erroll.” I told him.
“My son. Prince Erroll Bataran.” He pulled me closer with baby Erroll in his arms and I breathed them in. These were the two men in my life that I would do anything to protect. For them my heart raised its guard, to protect the radiating love inside of me.

“Aiden, you do know who that is right?” Bain McDowell said to him.
Aiden looked over at the girl who had just left his father’s blacksmith shop with her father. Her long brown hair hung down between her shoulders. “Of course I know who it is. We’ve been friends for years.” Aiden looked back at his friend.
“You can’t be friends with the princess. Well not the way you are looking at her right now anyway.” Bain stated.
“I’m not looking at her in anyway.” Aiden protested.
“I’ve seen that look before, hell felt that look before when I’ve seen some girls. You are 16 years old; I know what that is like!” Bain said.
“What you only 18 right now how can you know all about life by now?” Aiden asked.
“Listen I want to tell you I know you think you have something with her.” Bain started to say.
Aiden cut him off. “Look we’ve been friends since we were both little. Anyway, I wasn’t looking at her in that way as you said it.”
“Look don’t get upset at me. I don’t see how you didn’t figure it out before. You know the princess isn’t going to marry you. You’re just a blacksmith’s son after all. She would need someone who was at least a prince. You, well, you don’t count in their world.” Bain said.
He had already known that all, but hearing it out loud was hard anyway. Aiden had known Kyla Fleming for years now. Since they had been around 4 years old, the two children had played together. The one thing he had been holding onto for all these years was the fact they still hung out. Even though he knew she was important, she would still come to him and hang out.
“Hey come on buddy, I’m sorry if you thought you had a chance. Better to find out now though, instead of saying something to her and finding out!” Bain cupped his shoulder. He was as close to a big brother that Aiden had in life.
“Yeah I know, thanks Bain. Really I don’t know what I was thinking anyway.” Aiden said, still staring off towards where she had gone. With the admission out he felt lonely and cold. He thought his life had no more meaning. What could he do now? He had always hoped that maybe she would break the mold. That she would come to him and claim that she loved him and wanted to marry him.
Or perhaps one night he could have taken her some flowers, and she would have confessed how she felt at that time. He didn’t care, but in the end the story had always ended the same way. He would win the girls hand and marry her, princess or not!
“So you know what I’ve finally decided?” Aiden looked over at Bain and said.
“That I’m the best at combat?” Bain teased.
“Aye, I’m still as good as you. But that isn’t it; I’ve decided to join the King’s army. My father and mother have raised me well, but it is time I give back to the country and clan.” Aiden announced.
“Well that’s great! Tell you what I’ll ride to town with you and sign up as well. I’ve just been waiting for you to decide anyway!” Bain stated.
Aiden nodded his head and went back to what he was doing. It was the only decision he could make, he didn’t want to stay in the village. If he had to watch Kyla walk around all the time, well sooner or later he would tell her how
