Sitting across from each other in the meeting chambers The Hearts King and Queen exchanged confused glances with the Spades' Queen. Luciano stood next to Allen nervously but didn't dare let it show.

Allen was the first to break the tense silence.

"I suppose you are all wondering why I called this meeting? Well as you've probably heard our Kingdom lost our Jack to an unforeseen accident and we will need to find a replacement." He started, glancing at his Queen for their expression before continuing.

The Spades Queen gave their King a suspicious expression but said nothing. The Hearts King and Queen just offered sympathetic looks and waited for him to go on.

Allen took a deep breath and glanced at Luciano, finding his close presence grounding, before he continued speaking.

"I wanted to ask for your permission to have your Jack stay here and act as our Jack temporarily until a replacement is found. Proper compensation would be given in exchange for this arrangement rest assured of that." The Spades King finished then waited for reactions and answers.

The Hearts King was the first to say something in response.

"I'm not opposed to the idea but are you sure you think he will be a good fit? He's not really that special and barely manages his own Kingdom duties back home." The Hearts King said, showing how little they cared for their Jack. The Hearts Queen just nodded in agreement silently.

Luciano had to bite his tongue to keep from speaking out at the obvious lies.

"I've already had him doing tasks here and he's more than efficient and capable of handling it. But if there's no objections then you both can sign this and make it official." Allen said and slid over a piece of parchment that had a contract written out on it along with two spaces at the bottom for the two to sign their names.

The Hearts King and Queen read over the contract then looked at Luciano before eventually signing and handing the parchment back.

Allen took the parchment and placed it in his pocket, he didn't even care they hadn't let the Spades Queen get a word in as it didn't matter to him.

"Well now that we've settled that if you'll excuse me I have work to be done. Luciano come with me you can assist me and get used to your new home." Allen said and stood up before exiting the room.

"Yes My King, I'd love to assist you in any way possible." Luciano said then shot the Hearts King and Queen a smirk before following Allen out.
