Author's Note: I would have posted this earlier but I became quite busy. Sorry about that. Thank you to all of you who have made suggestions for these chapters! If I don't get any more suggestions, the story will probably progress by the next chapter, so if you really want me to write something you have to tell me! This chapter is going to revolve around the children and the idea is mix between caroltrivilini's and juudjv's. Here's chapter twelve! Hope ya'll like it!

After the eventful day before, the royals all decided to take it a bit easier. They had all decided that they had to tell all the children that they were actually related. It wasn't the young ones they were worried about but the elder ones. They all knew Alice and Sam would probably take the news the worst. They would probably feel betrayed about the situation, but it wasn't the monarch's fault. They've only known for two days that they actually had siblings let alone nieces and nephews. Clarion got dressed in her normal attire, secretly wishing that she could just dress down in a pair of shots and a top. When she was about to do her hair, she heard a knock on the door. Clarion knew exactly who it was he was the only one who had the guts to knock on the queen's door early! She walked over, completely forgetting about her hair, and opened the door. She was greeted by Milori's charming smile, the smile that always made her blush uncontrollably.

"Good morning, darling!" He said happily. He leaned forward and kissed her forehead gently. Clarion smiled at his romantic gestures.

"Good morning, honey." She said as she led him into her room. "How are you?" Milori nodded as he sat on her comfy bed.

"A little tired form last night's events though." Clarion giggled at her lover's response. "Aren't you forgetting to do something?" Milori asked her. Clarion gave him a confused look. He stood up and pointed to her hair.

"Oh, right!" Clarion giggled. "Thank you for reminding me!" Milori chuckled along with the queen. He picked up her hairbrush.

"May I?" Clarion nodded and turned her back to him. Milori began to brush long strokes through her hair. Her hair was so smooth and soft and smelled like citrus fruit. Once her hair was as smooth as silk, Milori swept her locks over shoulder and kissed her neck. Clarion smiled and closed her eyes. He then tied her hair up in its usual bun. "Lets go." He took her hand and led her to the tearoom where they would be having breakfast again with Clarion's siblings.

Clarion took her place next to her sister like the day before and began to talk to her. The sisters seemed to be able to talk about anything and then turn it into a full-blown conversation. The men never understood how girls did it, nor will they ever understand. Breakfast went the same as usual. Clarion would eat first then she would feed George. During breakfast, the siblings all agreed to tell the children once in for all that they were cousins. They just didn't know how.

"How about we let them do something together, to get know one another better?" Robert suggested. We all knew that Robert's eldest daughter, Alice, would take the news the worst being a teenager after all. Milori then got an idea.

"We could take them to the Winter Woods." He said "We could take them ice-skating and sledding. It would help them bond and interact together." Milori smiled.

"Have the children ever seen snow?" Clarion asked her siblings. The all shook their side-to-side making Clarion smile. "Then it could also be a new learning experience. Couldn't it George?" She jokingly asked the baby on her lap. Everyone giggled when George just babbled. The continued to eat and then afterwards they gathering all the kids and taking them to the Pixie Dust Center…

"What is this all about?" Alice asked. All the children were lined up oblivious to the news they were about to receive.

"We've brought you all here to tell you something very important." James began. All the children looked at one another and thought 'What have we done now?!' "You all must be mature about the information we are about to give you." The children all nodded in understanding.

"It has been found out that…" Dania began. She looked at her siblings for help. They all shook they're heads except Clarion who just sighed.

"We found out that Robert, James, Dania and I are actually related. We're brothers and sisters." Clarion explained. "Now before you jump to conclusions, we only just found out about this." She quickly said when she saw the children look at each other.

"Wait so…we are all cousins?" Sam asked. Dania nodded. Daisy and Pixie looked at each other.

"We're related!" They screamed jumping up and down. Pixie and Daisy were the same age, seven years old, and became quite close. It wasn't everyday that you found out that your best friend was actually your cousin. The monarchs smiled at this and all the children as they rejoiced at the news. Clarion looked at Alice. She was just standing quietly with Sam. Clarion walked over to them and led them inside.

"Are you two okay with this?" She asked them. The two just looked at each other.

"It's just a lot to comprehend, you know." Sam said quietly.

"So are you are our aunt?" Alice asked. Clarion nodded.

"I guess I am…" She trailed off. Alice and Sam nodded and smiled at one another. They both secretly liked Clarion and hoped they would get to know her better. "What are you two smiling about?"

"It's just…we were hoping that we could get to know you better…" Sam trailed off. Clarion smiled.

"And now you will. I want to get to know you guys better to." She said. Then out of nowhere, the two children hugged her. She hugged them back and kissed the top of both their heads. They broke out of the hug and walked out to the rest. Milori smiled at Clarion knowing she had probably talked to the eldest children.

"Now we decided to take you all to the Winter Woods for the day for you all to get to know each other." Milori explained. "And we go you all coats." Clarion stood forward and handed over each child a coat, all different colours. When everyone had a coat, Milori and Clarion led them all to the Winter Woods. One by one Milori frosted their wings and allowed them to cross the border. The children as well as their parents were amazed by the beauty of winter. The children loved twirling in the snowflakes and making snow fairies in the white pillow beneath their feet. Milori led them to frost lake, which was frozen over for ice-skating.

"Now Milori is going to teach you all how to ice-skate." David said. All the kids got onto the ice unsteadily and looked towards Milori.

"Okay, so you first need to get your balance." Milori began. All the children were fairly fast learners. Pixie was having a bit of trouble so Milori stood behind her and held her little hands. "Don't worry, Pixie." He assured her. Everyone else was skating circles around her.

"Why can't I do this, Uncle Milori?" Pixie asked. Milori smiled when he heard her say uncle. He wasn't even their real uncle yet she treated him like he was.

"Everyone learns at a different speed, my dear." Milori said. "Just push your feet one and then the other." Pixie did as she was told and soon was beginning to skate. Milori walked back to the monarchs.

"You're a very good teacher, Milori." Dania said. Milori shook his head.

"I can't be that good." He said. "I've been trying to teach Clarion how to skate forever and she still can't!" Everyone laughed as Clarion blushed. He smiled at her and kissed her cheek lovingly. The royals watched in pride as all the children taking the news well and happy. Clarion and Milori played with George in the snow as the kids continued to skate.

"Come here George!" Clarion said to the baby as he crawled to her. Milori laughed.

"He's a good crawler, isn't he?" Milori said as he saw Clarion pick him up and place him in Milori's lap. He began to babble at the Lord. Clarion just stared.

"You're good with him." She said. Milori smiled.

"So are you." He pulled Clarion beside him and kissed her. She smiled and ran her hand up his chest. They then felt George's little hand push Milori's face from Clarion's. "Looks like someone doesn't like all the kissing!" He joked.

"He'll just have to deal with it." Clarion said as she kissed him again. Dania came over and took George from them so they could enjoy themselves. Milori pulled away and led her to the ice.

"No way!" She laughed. "I'm not getting on that!" Milori smiled.

"Don't worry, love." Milori looked into her eyes. "I won't let go." She nodded and Milori held her hand tight. He wrapped his arms around her when they were on the ice and leaned in and kissed her. Clarion smiled into the kiss and tangled her fingers in his hair.

"Please not here!" Alice said. Milori and Clarion pulled away as Ree blushed. Milori tried teaching her but Clarion had given up long before they even started.

"Can't we do something else?" She groaned. "Let's take them sledding." Milori sighed and nodded. Perhaps another day he'll have the queen skating.

The royal couple took all the kids to the hills covered in snow for sledding. Milori along with a few glacier fairies made some sleds for the children. There was no need to teach them, the kids knew exactly how to have a good time. The monarchs even joined them. The day was perfect. Clarion sat with George at the bottom watching the children slide down one by one and climb back up the hill. Alice went to sit next to Clarion.

"Why aren't you sledding, sweetheart?" Clarion asked the teenager as she bounced George on her lap. Alice shrugged her shoulders.

"I don't know…I just need sometime to think." Alice replied looking to the ground. Clarion could tell something was up.

"Do you want to talk about something?" Clarion asked. Alice nodded. "I'm all ears. What's up?"

"It's just…I really don't want to leave." Alice began. "I love it here and I don't want to say goodbye to my cousins and my aunts and uncle." Clarion sighed and wrapped an arm around the teenager's shoulders.

"Don't you worry. We are thinking of a way to make it work. Do you think I want to never see my siblings I just met?" Clarion joked. Alice giggled and laid her head on Ree's shoulders.

"Thank you Aunt Clarion." Alice said. Clarion smiled.

"You can call me Aunt Ree." Clarion said. Alice looked confused. "Ree, is my nickname." Alice nodded.

They looked back at everyone laughing and giggling. Milori came over and sat next to Clarion. Alice smiled at how in love they both were with each other. Alice didn't want to ever leave. As horrible as it sounded, she hoped something would happen that would keep her here with everyone if just for a bit longer. Little did she know that her wish was going to come true…very soon.
