The Dragon Prince’s Forbidden Affair

The next day Gray was staring out the window. “Dad, when are we going to see Aqua and Cade?”

“Soon, they’re both settling into their new homes.”

“Everyone has a new home.” Gray sat down in one of the chairs. Everything must have been changing so quickly through Gray’s eyes. We’ve never had to adjust so much before.

I was getting another call from King Peter. They didn’t want to accept their lost. I ran everything at the castle, I’m sure me quitting has affected everyone who works there. They haven’t put a warrant out for my arrest, and it was probably because they wanted me back. I didn’t feel guilt, I knew they’d get a new adviser soon. I can’t get my childhood back and neither can Cade. We grew up aiding princes and being prepared to advise them. I don’t know who I am outside of that.

Lynn wasn’t the first woman I’ve ever wanted to marry. The first was a woman who worked at the castle. It was hard to meet woman who didn’t work at the castle. We dated when we were young and when I got serious about her Peter didn’t approve. My wife had to be approved. I was only sixteen when I dated her, but I knew we’d last, and I’d want to marry her. Peter wanted to stop the relationship before it got to the point of marriage years later.

I was interested in a few different women but none of them seemed like someone Peter would trust. When I met Lynn while flying around I knew Peter would trust someone like her. She wasn’t my first or second or third choice, but I knew I’d end up loving her. I catered to Peter in every aspect of my life.

The only time I really made a choice by myself for myself was with Mae. If I had met her again before Lynn I wouldn’t have cared about Peter’s disapproval. Or maybe I’m afraid to admit I would. Loyalty to King Peter was all I had known.
