Arthur could feel that's small sadness in his heart but he only laughed and scratched his head nervously. "I-I'll go to sleep now..." Arthur said trying to keep his saddened Heart to himself. He didn't understand why he felt such feelings towards another guy but it hurt.

"You won't get lost will you?" Alfred asked.

"No...I think I remember where my room is" Arthur said as he began walking towards the castle...

The next morning Arthur awoke to Emma pulling his hairs. "Wake up Arthur! I heard a servant knock on your door, you are to be at parliaments chambers in like 10 minutes!" Emma yelled into his ear.

Arthur rolled out of bed and landed on his back. "Damn! Ouch!" Arthur mumbled as he rubbed his back as he got up. And began looking for his clothes, but they weren't anywhere.

"Shit! Emma! Where are my clothes !?"

Suddenly a knock at the door. And the door was opened, Arthur was half naked. Only in some pajama pants that had green plaid. Emma disappeared

"Dude...you look like you just woke up" Alfred said as he let in some maids.

"They're gonna dress you." Alfred said as he sat on Arthur's bed, watching

The maids began talking and laughing as they got the clothes out, measurements and everything

"But parliament-" Arthur managed to say over the chatter

"Parliament will meet with us in one hour. They also have to look at some political stuff" Alfred informed as he watched the girls beginning to help Arthur put on his shirt , then coat. And finally covering his spades mark. The clothes were of spades.

"...I'm a club noble, I can't wear spades-" Arthur began to protest but Alfred waved the maids out. The maids filed out and left Alfred with Arthur.

"Dude, you have to calm down, you're the spades Queen. No matter the gender. You belong to spades...and to me" Alfred murmured the last part as he looked away.

"What?" Arthur asked

" we need to get to breakfast. You will soon meet my twin brother as well as your mother wants you down there." Alfred said with a smile as he opened the door and waited for Arthur to walk out first.

As Arthur made his way to the table, he noticed a beautiful girl with ice blue eyes as well as with almost white hair. Her skin was pale and Arthur knew who she was. She wore a green dress, a sign of being part of Clubs. Natalie Braginsky, sister of the King of Clubs.

"Natalie?" Arthur asked

Natalie got up and bowed slightly, "lord Arthur Kirkland, it is nice to see you again" she said, with no emotion whatsoever. Alfred gazed from Natalie and Arthur, "I see you two know each other.

"Yes...she was my fiancé at some point..."

Natalie slightly smiled, "yes...my dear brother would like to speak to you soon about our engagement, of course I will understand that it is broken off but please speak to him about that" she said as she sat down.

Arthurs mother looked at him worried but only managed to give a half hearted smile of enthusiasm. That breakfast was quiet and awkward.

Later that evening Arthur stood in the library alone, looking through books when he met Yao Wang, the old tutor of Alfred.

"Why do you like so down-aru?" He asked

"I...have trouble settling an old compromise" Arthur replied as he rubbed his head. Yao only smiled,

"We should have some tea-aru" he said as he leaded the Queen of Spades to a room in the library. The room was decorated in spades colors, but it had so many books, and papers as well as maps and even a panda!

"You are quite the teacher" Arthur stated with a slight enthusiasm.

"I am a tutor of many" he said as he poured some tea for the Queen. "May I ask you something my queen?" He asked

"Yes, of course"

"I...I think. No. I believe I may be the Jack of Spades but...I'm not so sure-aru "

"Why?" Arthur asked trying to ignore the slight annoyance he had for the accent but he didn't care much.

"I have...the mark. But it is as if the mark burned against my skin. More like its power wants to slightly explode, I believe this is an imbalance of power between us, Royals-aru " Yao said as he rolled up his long sleeve and showed his arm that held the jacks crest.

"Have you not told the King of this?" Arthur asked as he sipped his tea.

"I can feel that he is worried about something, maybe his emotional imbalance is what is affecting me-aru ?"

"But why would it affect you and not me?" Arthur asked

"...perhaps because you have learned to ignore him? Or your feelings are as a powerful as his majesty-aru"

"But what would make him worry so mu-" Arthur began saying when he realized... He had ignored the fact that Alfred looked a bit disturbed about hearing Arthur have a fiancé

"Yes-aru?"

"I believe I know the reason, please prepare a carriage for me. I will need you at my side as Jack, it's evident you are Jack. We are leaving to go meet the Royals of Clubs" Arthur said as he stood up.

The trip to clubs took most of the night and when the morning arrived, Arthur found himself in Clubs. Arthur got out before Yao did, only to be greeted by Clubs queen and Jack, Roderich.

"We heard you were arriving soon, we have made preparations for your stay, My Queen as well as a pen audience with the King." Roderich said with a bow. His eyes were purple and kind, his posture perfect and his manners as graceful as ever. But he stood very close to the Queen.

"Oh My! You're the Spades Queen?! You are absolutely wonderful! And cute! I wonder how dear Alfred can deny such cuteness!" She said with a kind smile. Her green eyes as happy as ever and her beautiful green dress flowing down. She wore a corset that pressed her breasts up more, and you could clearly see her Club Mark was on her top of the right chest. Arthur nodded in appreciation as he introduced himself and his Jack.

They walked the corridors to the Kings Court. Ivan Braginsky stood up from his chair and welcome his Queen and Jack. King Ivan had purple eyes, pale skin, lightish blonde hair almost white. He gave a strong aura that could inflict fear in others.

"I hear you wanted an audience with me, da?"

"Yes...it is about my engagement to Natalie" Arthur replied

"Ahh...yes. You are one of my Nobles. But since you became Queen of Spades, you have renounced title as a Lord of Clubs, da?"

"I am proudly a clubs as well as Spades, your majesty. But my engagement with Natalie must be broken off, I cannot marry her and marry the King of Spades" Arthur spoke in defense. Ivan slightly opened his eyes in almost shock and surprise but he slightly smiled.

"You will marry a man? Da?"

"If-if the King allows me to" Arthur replied, his voice quieter. Queen Elizavéta of Clubs stood at Ivan's side and slightly tugged at his long coat.

"I believe...what our dear Arthur is saying is that he has fallen in love with the King of Spades" she said with a smile, Arthur exploded into a big red blush.

"I HAVE NOT!" Arthur protested

Ivan looked at Elizavéta and back at Arthur, "I see..." He said as he turned back to his chair and sat on it, holding his long Axe. "I will strike you a deal, Arthur Kirkland, da"

"Yes?" Arthur asked slightly frightened

"If your relationship with the King of Spades does not get better in a 6 month, I will hope to see you wed my sisters, she is beautiful is she not?" Ivan asked

"She is beautiful, but you can't forcibly make me love someone I have only met two days ago" Arthur protested

"This is a gamble and entertainment for me! We will have so much fun!da!"

"You can't force me to do-"

"I can, since you are my noble, unless you drop the title. If you drop the title, we are no longer allies or friends. We will be slight enemies, da?"

"Enemies? But-"

"Enemies, da! It is like...declaring war on Clubs. Would you like that?" Ivan asked, his purple eyes turning into a challenging look

"With all do respect, if I may say, your majesty. We cannot do as you say-aru"

Ivan looked at the Jack and glanced at his Jack. "Roderich, please negotiate for me"

Roderich stood up from his table and put down his tea cup, he fixed his glasses.

"We have proclaimed what we expect and what we want, an alliance is built by benefitting both sides. Natalie is a member of the Kings family. Don't under appreciated the honor of being engaged and marrying a Kings sister." Roderich spoke,

Yao looked at Arthur in a slight conflict. Arthur had just gotten himself into a political problem and the worst thing was that he didnt know how to settle it.

"Has Natalie said anything about breaking our engagement?" Arthur asked

"Not yet, because she feels safe with your, Arthur. She cannot love easily" Elizavéta said for the King.

"And what if I find her the right man? What if she asks to break the engagement. Will it be enough?" Arthur asked

"It would. But knowing Natalie, she doesn't let go very easily" Ivan replied as he finally sat on his throne and dismissed Arthur with one look.

After Arthur left the Kings Court, Elizavéta looked at Ivan and Roderich. "What are you gambling on, Ivan?" She asked

"On the power of love. "Ivan replied

"The power of love? Why that? We are clubs and it is true we can see the future thanks to the Jokers but...Ivan. Even we cannot predict the possible outcome of Arthur Kirkland" she replied

Roderich sighed and fixed his glasses. "Your majesty, what have you seen that you are not telling us?"

"I saw...Arthur Kirkland die. But I also saw him thrive...but at a slight cost " Ivan said as he closed his eyes. Trying to see the Future but even the Jokers world would not let him see.

"And you are gambling on his life?" Elizavéta asked shocked

"I am testing him, to see how capable he is. Da?"

"You want to attack spades don't you?" Elizavéta asked once more

"More or less, da" and with those final words, Elizavéta nodded in understandment.

The Kingdoms of the Deck are divided into four, the diamonds, the hearts, the spades and the clubs. In the deck there are the Aces and the Jokers. The Jokers have lived for centuries but only the Queens can see them. The Diamonds are known for their money and persuasion as well as there kindness. The hearts are known to have heart and love, and acceptance as well as strong feelings. The spades are the kingdom of power, the ones who have influence over many things and who's Queen will always be a slight bit more magical than the rest. The clubs are known for luck, the way they can see the future but only others not their owns. They are trained best in defense. The jokers are said to be only two, who live within the fairy world but also their dimension where they supervise the rulers of kingdoms. The Aces are the faithful nights that will always be at the Royals side as a type of knight or counsel.

So the question is... Why is Arthur Kirkland so important in this game that the Deck has given out? Will the clubs attack? Will Alfred get over his slight jealousy ? Natalie finds true love? Soon the diamonds will arrive.
