Queen Genevieve

Genevieve was looking outside her open doors that lead to the balcony, she enjoyed the fresh air, she was now nine months pregnant and was due any day now. She seemed to be spaced out, she didn't even notice that her husband Derek was standing right next to her, he extended one of his arms around her shoulders and hugged her. Then he used his other one to put around her round stomach, she turned around to look up at Derek's eyes. "Derek I'm worried…. It's been four months since we've had an attack, we have been happy for quite a while. I'm afraid, I think Levi is planning on doing something terrible." Said Genevieve.

She saw Derek looking at her with a bit of worry in expression, "Don't worry about it Genevieve, and if he was planning something, I would never let anything happen to you two." Said Derek. She was happy to hear that but, something inside her was telling her that they better be prepared because she feels that something is about to approach them. "why don't we take a walk around the gardens, before dinner." Said Derek. "All right then, let's go Derek." Said Genevieve. They walked around the gardens, and stopped by the fountain where they had their first dance as husband and wife, they took a seat, then Genevieve started smiling, Derek noticed her smiling.

"What is Genevieve?" said Derek. "It's nothing, just… just that I remember when my sister's and I got are new shoes the day before Rowena arrived, remember that day?" said Genevieve. "How could I not remember that was the day Felix went behind my back and told me that I ruined my chance with you, whenever I gave you your shoes then went with the twins to help them with their shoes. He seems to be enjoying himself with Twila, I hope they don't run into trouble with the veterinary, but I think they'll be ok for now." Said Derek. "went behind your back? Oh, you mean when he said before you gave me my shoes, I thought it was cute. At least you didn't have older sister, whenever night came my sister's and I had a little chat about you." Said Genevieve

Genevieve saw that Derek surprised about this, "Really?" asked Derek. "Yes, they were all making fun of me because they saw passed me, they knew that I liked you. And started asking me questions trying to see what I say about you, for instance Fallon would talk about how you cute you are, obviously back then I didn't want then to know anything since I wasn't sure if you liked me too. So, I just told her if thought you were then I agreed, then Ashlyn said that maybe the problem was that you weren't a prince." Genevieve saw that Derek was hit by this because it was true, before they got married he was a shoe cobbler. "And that was true Genevieve, I wasn't I sometimes even wondered if it was even possible for you to love me, I was nothing but a cobbler." Said Derek. "But I told her that I didn't care that you weren't a prince, a king, or an emperor, and till this day I never nor will ever regret marring you." Said Genevieve. "Really? Genevieve." Said Derek.

"Of course, Derek I love you and will never regret marring you." Said Genevieve.

"I will always love you too Genevieve." Said Derek.

King Levi

He watched as his soldiers, they have been training for four months now, thanks to the warning that Willard send him, the soldiers have had enough time to train. They were sure that they are now ready to fight, "My dear Levi are you certain that we are ready for battle?" asked Willard. "Yes, I am positive, we trained long enough." Said Levi. "but what if something happens?" Said Willard. "Like what?" said Levi as he looked at his window. "I hope you are ready king Derek this time you won't be so lucky, I will take away the kingdom."

"Don't you mean 'we' will take his kingdom?" Said Willard, Levi turned around and laughed at him. "Are you serious? I'm the one who married Courtney, I've planned this since day one. All my guards are fighting except for the ones that that live here in the castle, all you did was warn me and put a few guards. So, if you think about it it's my kingdom, if you want you can be second in command while I rule. Your other option would be to leave, and I know you wouldn't betray me because everyone who ends up betraying me dies." Explained Levi.

"What about your brother? Are you capable of killing him too?" asked Willard. "Well you see now that one is a challenge, you see he's my brother, but he betrayed me like my wife did. If they don't die they be given a punishment, I can't have my brother fall in love with some stupid girl!" said Levi, he was about to continue until Willard cut him off. "Why? What would happen if he fell for some girl? She's just a girl, who knows maybe she'll even be a peasant?" said Willard Levi looked at him as if he was about to kill him.

"YOU IDIOT! YOU DON'T GET IT DO YOU!? If he falls the girl can easily be a princess, he's surrounded by them every single day! If they get married becomes king in the princess land, but if someone is already ruling he can take back this kingdom! Especially because he'll have a wife by his side, and if the GIRL is a peasant or a princess it won't matter, if this wife of his give him a…. a… Heir I'm done for! That would make him have every right to have the kingdom back unless he states that he doesn't want to be king, but he will never say that. As for me my wife left me, how in the hell I'm a supposed to have a… Heir? My lovely wife can't do anything, we took a vow at our dear wedding, we stay together until the day we die." Said Levi.

"What are you going to do then Levi?" asked Willard. "I'm going to have to send my brother, with my dear parents." Said Levi. "Levi!? Are you serious?! Surely you must be joking?" exclaimed Willard. "How do you think I feel Willard!? He's my own flesh-in blood Willard! But he has betrayed me and now he must pay, if it's not him maybe he'll have someone for me to have fun with." Said Levi as he continued to watch his guards prepare for the battle that is about to occur.
