51. Power
It still amazed Julian how much power a simple mortal wizard like Frank could have. He could get a room of berserk Kindred to calm down by just saying a few words. His Power could literally cause a thunderstorm because he was in a bad mood. His power was stronger than anyone else Julian had ever met because of Pureness that Frank had inside and Julian spent every night completely awed by Frank and worried his Darkness would corrupt Frank's Pureness. But, every night, Frank smiled and said "You are as Pure as I am. You couldn't if you tried."

52. Wizard*
"Wizard, damnit!" Frank yelled as yet another suitor tried to woo her by appealing to her Power and failed. "Just because I'm temporarily a girl doesn't mean I'm not still a wizard." Julian, the King Regent, chuckled. He saw her embarrassed look and then, her blush. "It's only a few days till the spell wears off." She muttered. "At least I haven't gotten pregnant or something." Immediately, the picture of her stomach swollen with his child assaulted him. He froze. "Indeed." Can'twaitforthedaystobeoverthen,Ishallnolongerbetempted. Yeah,likethat'llhappen.

53. Mine
King Regent Julian Luna was a possessive man. It was known throughout the kingdom that if he considered an object his, he would take care of it and never let anything else mess with it. He was slightly less possessive with people, knowing them to be their own property, but still wanted a person never to see anyone else if he loved them. So when some little Princeling tried to coerce HIS Frank into his Council, Julian had sent a clear message that Frank was his by sending the Prince on a very embarrassing quest and nobody doubted it again.

54. Ring
It was just a stupid ring. A simple gold band that would rest on one finger on someone's left hand. So why the hell was one Wizard extraordinaire Franklin James Kahonek flipping his shit about it? He wasn't. Well, at least that's what he told himself. He tossed the plain black ring box up into the air and caught it fingering the edge of it as he sighed and sent for the King Regent.
"Frank?"
"Hello Julian, close the door eh? I got something important to ask you."
"Okay? I'm listening."
"King Regent Julian Frankel Luna, will you marry me?"

55. Beginnings
There'samaninmypondPrince Julian thought, staring at the scruffy sodden man, who was spitting out a mixture of curses and spells. "You're a magician!" He said in wonder, which shocked the man enough for him to fall back into the pond. "Oi!" The man said staring up at him in anger. "Are you just going to stare or are you going to help me up?" he asked in frustration. Julian pulled the man out. "Are you hurt, Sir?" "Frank, just Frank. Who are you to sneak up someone?" "The Prince." Frank gulped but Julian smiled, amused.

* I blame the Dresden files for this one. I recently started this series and I'm hooked.
Frank: You made me a GIRL?
Me: I blame Gender-Bender X-Men stories for that certain quirk. *smiles and pats his head* At least, I didn't make you pregnant.
Frank: *Gulps*
