Braxton's P.O.V
We finally get to Riverta and I have this feeling that something is about to happen but I just don't what it is. It surpasses my expections as the lasr here not much was going on around here as now.A caravan is headed out and the merchants in the streets are also busy.I look around searching for a niche and I spot one."I see there is no glass business going on around here.It seems they still have not ventured into it.How about we expand our market all the way here" I tell Wesley and he nods in agreement.We head to the palace where
Henry stands outside awaiting our arrival."It has been a very long time since we met my old friend and I see you have not changed at all" he says as we embrace.'I remember the last time I was here was when your younger brother Dan passed."I tell him.At that time the war had just ended and there was a lot of cassualties.We got the news late and when we arrived to help the war was over.Dan was a young knight .He was braver than most knights I know of his age and during the battle he pushed himself too hard that he did not realise just how close he got to the enemy lines and that is how we lost him.He request to be given a vikings kind of send off and that was his dying wish.He died brave and with a smile on his face he did not panic even in the face of death.
"That was a long time but I still remember it well"Henry says drawing me back to our conversation."Welcome and I see you brought the princess with you..the last time I saw her she was still quite young now she is all grown" I look at Stacy and realise just how mucj she had grown ."I bet your daughter must also be grown by now I'm sure the princess and her will get along quite well."I tell him and his expression changes slightly and I smell the tension in him."Our daughter is all grown and very beautiful just like her mother am I right my love" the last person I wanted to see today say walking down the stairs."long time no see Braxton" ..."it's king Braxton"lady Alma I tell her .I wonder how Henry manages to put up with this woman all these years.She's those kind of women that are only a liability if you keep them by your side."my dear have I not told you that King Braxton likes keeping all the formalities.He feels disrespected if you do not address him properly."Henry tells her.
"My apologies King Braxton."she says with a frown.I know just how pretensious she is.She is wearing a green gown that looks ugly on her I decide to hate green too."Let us head in it is wrong to keep our guests standing by the door." she says and Henry leads us to the halls."C'mon Brax you didn't have to be mean to her what if the princess hears of it and holds a grudge and decides to take it out on me I hear she has a bad temper and unruly"Stacy whispers to me and I laugh causing everyone to turn their attention to me."I see the princess has a sense of humor,she makes you laugh a lot I bet it is hard to make a man like you happy or is it?" Alma says sacarstically."Only beatufil women with pure souls and good intensions can make me happy and not all women have that,most of them are just dumb asses."I say back.Now this woman and I have a bad history.She once tried to climb my bed and make me sleep with her and yet she was already betrothed to Henry and yet she claims that he is her mate.
I bet she was the pack slut before she met him and he still made her queen.I hope I never make such decisions even if its the name of so called love I hope my soulmate will be deserving to have me because I'm pretty sure I will turn her down if she is not."I'm the only woman who is allowed to make you happy right brother, promise me that you will still love me even after you find her." Stacy whines naggingly.My sister can be funny at times and its my fault I spoilt her too much all her life."you are my sister how can any woman replace you and besides Wesley will kill me if I do so." Henry laughs at our conversation."How I wish my daughter was like you."he says and now I'm wondering just what the princess is like."Do you think she and I will get along,,I really want to show her my new designs " Stacy says."Well she has a character but I'm sure you will get a long she is just a bit stubborn.You will meet her later she is busy with something but she will come for the bamquet tonight." Henry says as we finally get to sit .I must say the throne room has quite unique style .I get a faint scent but I'm not sure where it is coming from and I feel a sudden pain in my chest.Wesley looks at me with concern and I brush it off.
