Do You Believe In Magic:
Sorry this hasn't been updated….if I had to give an excuse it would most likely be lack of spark in this verse however I'm back now and my muse has some semblance of a plot in mind so I hope to update this again. I can't give a timeline of the frequency of the updates just that there will be some…
Katie had fallen in love with the garden of the palace and knew she could of stayed there all day just smelling the aroma of the vast aray of flowers and watching the water from all the fountains sparkle in the sun however she knew that she couldn't disobey the King and not just because he was Jake's 'real' father. She'd studied different dynasties of nobility in Perino's class and if this mythical fairytale land was anything like some of those periods in history King Wendell could easily have her head and well…Katie was rather attached to it.
Jake's hand linked into hers, the duo finally made their way into the throne room where Eli and Clare were chattering away with another older couple. It didn't take Katie more than a moment to realize said older couple were Eli's parents.
"So," the older woman said with a casual smile turning toward Jake as she held out her hand, "you must be my nephew."
Jake nodded and introduced himself to Virginia before turning in the direction of his girlfriend with a huge smile on his lips.
"And this is my girlfriend Katie," he spoke with a smile as he turned to gently kiss her cheek once more.
"Again what a knock out," Wolf said with an approving glance in Katie's direction making the young girl feel slightly unhinged. "I swear there must be something in the water in your world….I mean she's another looker. If only I were younger…huff puff."
As Wolf said this, Virginia gave her husband a small slap as the older man chuckled.
"What I was trying to say is that our boy's have done good….anyway Wendy are ya shore this one is yours."
As Wolf talked he pointed his finger toward Jake before moving it into Katie's direction.
"Cause this one's beauty is reminiscent of…."
Cutting Wolf off Wendell nodded. With her dark hair and fair skin there were definitely similarities between the young girl and the great queen however before the king could speak Katie flashed a smile at Wolf.
"This isn't my natural hair color." She didn't know why she felt the need to say that however what was done was done.
"Still you are the third fairest maiden present." Wolf said as he'd never place the young girl above his wife or potential daughter in law despite seeing an allure in her that he didn't quite see in Clare.
As Katie blushed Wendell smiled.
"Well natural or not I'm sure you'll make a great queen when the time comes."
As he spoke however he shook his head trying to hide the fact that in order for his son to earn his rightful Happily Ever After it would take more than a tour of the other Kingdoms and a ball to make it happen.
"I know…but… it's just….weird." Katie said with a nervous. "I mean I'm just…"
Not finishing her line Virginia nodded placing a hand on Katie's shoulder.
"I know….but me, you, Clare….we are destined for something greater than we've ever thought."
"And with that," the king said looking toward the oldest of the three women, "I propose that Virginia take you two ladies toward to the library to chat and Wolf why don't you and Eli get to know one another some more."
"I sense that I won't be the only one doing some father son bonding eh Wendy."
Wendell just gave Wolf a look.
"So you're going to tell him about…."
With another look Wolf turned to Eli and placed a hand on the younger boys shoulder.
"Come on son, let me tell you the story about how I met your mother."
Eli just nodded hoping it wouldn't drag on aimlessly like that sitcom of the same name back home.

I know it's short but hey it's something….like I said above I kind of have a loose plotline but right now I'm just torn as to WHO the Villain should be once I figure that out updates could come at a faster pace….
