Book 1 Epilogue
The next several weeks passed by in a blur for the residents of the Castle of Lions. The Voltron Force was kept busy with team practices and small skirmishes here and there with the forces of Doom. All in all, things were relatively quiet.
About a week and a half after Keith and Allura became official, they sat down with the rest of the Voltron Force and revealed their relationship. Lance, having already known, congratulated the Princess on finally cracking the Commander's tough heart. Hunk and Pidge were elated, both revealing that they were surprised it hadn't happened sooner. The news spread like wildfire through the Castle and it brought with it happiness and hope for the future that hadn't been seen or felt since the five space explorers first came to Arus and Voltron was reawakened.
Keith and Allura were both kept busy with their individual duties and their duties to the team. They still managed to find time to spend together whether taking a walk in the castle gardens or spending the evening relaxing on the couch with their teammates. Their intimate moments were few and far between, stealing some kisses and make out sessions late at night before bed or in the gym before a workout when no one else was there. Despite Allura's confession, she and Keith had not had time or opportunity to become more involved physically, to the relief of the Princess's guardians.
Nanny and Koran avoided both Allura and the Commander for several days following Allura's ultimatum, speaking to them only when it was absolutely necessary. After a week of being kept at arm's length, Nanny and Koran had a long talk and conceded that the Princess had done nothing consciously wrong and should not be punished for an act a decade old. She was an innocent who made a poor decision at a very stressful time. What happened had happened and there was nothing that any of them could do to change it. They also agreed to each other that Allura and Keith had the right to let their relationship develop and evolve as they saw fit. After everything both had done for Arus and for the Arussian people, they had the right to love each other and be happy.
