Wait, my dad is the king?

GAMES OF FATE 1

I woke up and checked the time. 3am, as usual, I've woken up earlier than I should. This has been a constant thing in my life since my dad's death. After I wake up by 3, I can not fall asleep so I stay awake till it's time to get ready for the day. I have gotten medical advices from various professionals, all prescribed sleeping pills but they didn't work. They all weakened me during the day but I still woke up at exactly 3am. I grunted and got out of bed, there was no point in staying in bed when I knew I won't fall asleep. I decided to go for a run around the palace.

... Meanwhile at Sabrina's home

I grudgingly got out of bed, the alarm kept ringing to remind me to get out of bed. It was 5:30am, I had make breakfast for the twins and get them ready for preschool. They started school this month and so far, it's been struggle. Sometimes they're excited for school, sometimes they don't want to go at all. I wondered what mood they'll be in today while I showered, after I wore a shower robe and went to the kitchen to start. I try not to wear something too cute while feeding the twins, I learnt the hard way that toddlers eating is a war zone so I try to wear dresses I can easily part with if the stain is too horrible. I made some blueberry pancakes, the twins favorite breakfast which should hopefully put them in a good mood. I went upstairs to their room and woke them up, they sleepily came back down with me while asking for more time to sleep and why I woke them up so early. I sat them down in their high chair and gave them some pancakes. I took my morning coffee, I honestly don't know how I would make it through the day without my regular morning coffee. On a good day, I drink three cups of coffee but on a bad day, I'll be high on caffeine.

After a lot of soap in the eye accidents, sneak attacks, compliments and joking around, I got the twins and myself ready for the day. We left the house and into the car. Within thirty minutes, I arrived at Sunrise academy where the twins attend preschool. I got out of the car and spoke to their teacher for a couple of minutes. Mrs Winfield is a nice woman, she keeps me informed on the twins behaviors especially as they just started school. I dropped them off and they weren't acting out so that was good. As soon as they went in, the race against time began. I had to get to the office and I have a lot of clients booked and I have to finish them in time to pick up the twins.

....At the palace

"What? And you're just telling me now because?", I barely controlled myself from screaming in anger, I was informed that the partners in our subsidiary company were thinking about selling off the company to someone else because the revenue hasn't been that great for two years. And they were planning this without telling me, they were going to sign the documents today, in an hour to be precise. "Get the car, we are going there right now", I ordered. Mikael tried to stop me, "What about your meeting with the royal family of Midaid? I don't think it's worth going over there instead of receiving them here. You may not make it in time to stop the signing" "Keep them entertained till I come back, get the royal court ready in case I don't get there in time, I'll determine the fate of our partners for this betrayal", I dictated as I walked out of the palace without seeking the approval of Mikael. I got into the car and left, I was brewing with anger, the closer we got to the company.

.... Sabrina

I finally got to the office and was already on my second cup of coffee, I started on my clients. I left the entertainment company I was working for to start my own makeup and hair styling salon and it was doing pretty well. I made the right decision then because this salon works on my own time and my schedule in order to accommodate the twins.

My reviews has been great so far, as the day gradually progressed, the lesser my clients but the more exhausted I am. Suddenly some guys barge into my salon, reeking of alcohol, one of them was shouting about how I aided his girlfriend to cheat on him. He claims, I made her so beautiful that another guy approached her and now she has cheated on him. My clients were scared, I tried to call them down but they got more and more aggressive, squeezing my hand and pushing me to the floor. They started trying to trash my salon, I had enough. This has to stop.
