Seth and Liam still had no clue as to helping Serenity and Anthony. They didn't know how the Queens would react to their son having a baby right now.

A baby with someone who wasn't chosen for him or royal blood.

"Maybe I can speak to Lynn and Roman about this? I mean, Roman is a royal", Seth brought up.

Liam's mind was somewhere else. Seth walked over and shook him a bit. Liam finally looked at him.

"Sorry baby, what?", he asked.

"I said, what if we talk to Lynn and Roman first, ask them what we should do", Seth said.

Liam nodded.

"Roman is royal after all", Liam added.

Seth smiled. That was the same thing he said. He could tell his husband was worried about something else.

"What is it?", Seth asked.

"Don't get me wrong, I am so proud of her for wanting to see this through and take what ever the royals dish out, but I'm also scared for her", Liam said.

Seth nodded.

"I know Anthony would never abandon her, he loves her. I just, what if they are making the wrong decision here? Shouldn't we as parents step in?", Liam asked.

"We did what we could, and now as grandparents, we will do what we can there too", Seth replied.

Liam nodded.

"Now, I am going to go catch Lynn before they go anywhere", Seth said.

Liam leaned in and kissed Seth.

"Love you baby", Liam said.

"Love you too", Seth replied.

Seth walked out of their room and down the hall to Roman and Lynn's office. He knocked before it opened. Lynn smiled at him as Roman sat behind his desk looking over papers.

"Hey, so what brings you by?", Lynn asked.

"Do you and Rome have a minute?", he asked, looking between husband and wife.

Lynn looked at her husband too as Roman nodded and stood. He joined them in the living room part of the office, sitting beside his wife.

"What can we do for you?', Roman asked.

Seth took a deep breath before telling them what happened.

"Wow, that is…", Lynn stopped and looked at her husband.

Roman looked at Seth.

"Regions are different, Seth. Here, Rao would be forced to marry whoever he got pregnant. She would be carrying his heir, but I don't know how Trish and Toni will handle it. Only women rule their region", Roman said.

Seth nodded.

"Anthony and Serenity love each other, so if they have to get married that's fine. I just don't want her to end up hurt", Seth said.

Roman and Lynn nodded.

"The best advice I can give you is sit them down and just tell them. Serenity and Anthony should be the ones to do it. Anthony has to stand firm with his moms.", Roman said.

"I agree", Lynn nodded.

"Anthony will choose Ren, we all know that.", Roman added.

"If you want, I can come with you guys. You know they respond better to women", Lynn said.

Seth nodded.

"If you don't mind. You know how your brother gets when it comes to the kids", Seth said.

Lynn nodded.

"When do you plan to talk to them?", Roman asked.

"Tomorrow. Its still sinking in for me and Liam", Seth said.

They nodded and hoped everything turned out for the better.


Everyone was going over plans for the party they were throwing. They wanted to see if Javier could handle the pressure of other royals.

They measured him for his suit and asked for his shoe size. Colors. Themes. Tie or bow tie? Asking him if he wanted a hair cut and before he could say yes or no, that decision was made for him.

What did he like to eat. Drink. His entire day from morning till night was planned, no wiggle room.

Melissa and Queen Leslie went over who was easiest to impress and who he should stay away from till he was more use to this life. He agreed.

"You okay?", Leslie asked, once Melissa left them alone.

He exhaled before nodding, a bit too fast if you asked her.

"Yeah, yes, sorry, I will remember its yes", he quickly said.

Leslie squeezed his shoulder.

"Trust me, I have been here, but you will be fine. Honestly, if you make a mistake, its okay. We won't hold it against you", Leslie said.

"Did you mess up?", he asked.

She nodded.

"Oh yeah, I called the wrong Queens by their names and they rolled their eyes as if they were better than me. It hurt, you know, because it just reminded me that I didn't belong.", she said.

"Then why did you stay with him?", he asked.

She smiled.

"I fell in love with him. Don't get me wrong, I did pack and cry, but then, he smiled at me and told me he loved me. My brother also reminded me that I deserve to be loved, fuck what everyone else thinks", she said.

He chuckled.

"I wish it were that easy", he mumbled.

"Everyone is different. Just know, that if you need to run, run. Sometimes we need too", she said.

He nodded.

"Shit, ask my sister", Leslie added with a wink.


Lynn, Seth, Liam, and Serenity made their way to see Trish and Toni. Each nervous. Liam took his daughter's hand and squeezed it.

"Not matter what happens baby, we've got you and we will always be here", Liam whispered.

She pressed her body closer to him and smiled.

"Thank you daddy", she whispered back.

Lynn cleared her throat before putting a smile on her face and holding her head up high.

"Queen Reigns, its so nice of you to visit", Toni said, air kissing her cheeks.

"I came for Serenity. It seems the kids have something they would like to tell you, along with my guards and brothers", Lynn replied.

Toni nodded and looked at each. Serenity couldn't meet her eyes.

"Ren", Anthony said, quickly coming down and going to her.

Toni watched as her son cupped Serenity's face.

"Rhea, call for Trish. Now", Toni said, not taking her eyes off the teens.

Rhea quickly left and was replaced by Asuka.

"Lets sit, I have a feeling we will need too", Toni said.

Serenity couldn't read Toni's expression.

"Hey", Anthony whispered as their parents went to sit.

She looked up at his smiling face.

"I love you. No matter what happens tonight. I am with you forever.", he whispered.

She smiled. He locked his hand with hers and joined their families just as Rhea returned with Trish.

"Queen Reigns, this is a surprise", Trish said.

"Oh, we haven't even gotten it yet", Toni replied.

Trish chuckled at her wife. Her eyes finally landed on Anthony and Serenity's locked hands, which in turn made Serenity pull away.

"Anthony…", Trish stopped.

He cleared his throat.

"I love her, mom. I have always loved her. I understand that by choosing Ren, I lose my title, but I don't care. I made this choice a long time ago.", he said.

Trish looked at Toni.

"I'm sorry if you feel that I've disappointed you, but I haven't. You've always taught me to follow my heart and I am", he added, taking back Serenity's hand.

He looked back at his moms.

"And, I saved the best for last", he said.

"If you say she's…", he cut her off.

"She's pregnant. The baby is mine and I couldn't be happier.", he said.

Trish shook her head.

"This can't be happening, Anthony, you are engaged to another woman", Trish said.

"No, I never agreed to that. You all did, you didn't even give me a chance to say anything. You never asked me what I wanted", Anthony said.

He looked at Serenity.

"This is what I want. I want Ren, I want our baby. You can do whatever you want to me, but so long as you leave Ren and my child be", he said.

Toni looked at Serenity.

"This wasn't what we meant by watching him, Serenity. You were suppose to be his guard, not his mistress", Toni said.

"Now hold on…", Lynn stopped her brother.

She looked at Toni.

"That was uncalled for. Don't ever disrespect my niece or anyone in my family", Lynn said.

"See, this is why we were seeing each other in private, because you two would never understand.", Anthony said to his moms.

"Anthony…", he cut his mom off.

"No. You either treat the love of my life with respect, or we leave and you never see me again. You will never meet your grandchild. Is that really what you both want?", he said.

Toni looked at Trish. She didn't want to lose her son. Trish looked at her.

"We lost sight of your happiness, Anthony. I'm sorry, you are right. We never wanted to force you.", Trish said.

Toni looked at Serenity.

"I'm sorry for what I said. We've known you since you were a little girl. You've been our son's best friend for a long time. We should have known feelings would develop.", Toni said.

Serenity nodded.

"At one point we did try really hard to stay away from each other, but we just couldn't.", Serenity finally spoke up.

Trish and Toni nodded.

"We can't wait to meet your little one", Toni said.

Anthony kissed the side of Serenity's head.

"Together forever", he whispered.
