The Prince & I: The Prince & I Season 1 - 5
"Mom, Dad, I'm home..."
In a room in the palace of Evertonia, in a tall tower with a balcony overlooking the main courtyard.
I have finally arrived back here after more than twenty years of being expelled so suddenly. Separated from everything I love. My husband and son are babies.
Without property and a place to live, I was scattered in the other country. Until I decided to be quiet, calm, try to forgive all who hurt me and start a new life from scratch. But still, a mother can never forget the son she was born with.
Rey is back at the Royal Games. And she expressed love for Joy. Just like Friedrich declared love to me. It's not the loss of a treasure I regret, I don't even care about the old love for my son's father. All I want is simple; to be allowed to meet again and hug my son, and then I will disappear again as before.
What the hell is that? Looks like a pickup vehicle is approaching. Luxury sedan. Royal guest? But there was no escort or police escort.
I ran to the balcony and looked down at the far courtyard.
Gosh darn. Someone came out of the back door of the sedan, opened the guard.
"Md. Mayvelina,"
I was about to look a little longer, but someone outside my room knocked on the door and called out to me.
"Md. May, you are called to Your Majesty right now."
********************
Soon a blonde bob-haired woman escorted by two guards soon arrived before King Frederick. She wore a royal red dress as graceful as a queen, only without a crown, for she was not entitled to the title.
"Mayvelina, my beautiful Mayvelina, the angel that fell from the sky in the rose garden of Evertonia, which is still so fascinating." there was a low voice of Friedrich, almost as gentle as Rey's tone.
"Where is Rey? You brought me back here because you promised to meet me with him. Don't fuck my son! It's our only one."
The king who had been standing straight on his back to the throne slowly turned around.
May gasps. "Friedrich." His eyes began to glaze over. It's still like old times. Very similar to Rey, except a few sheets of gray hair have been present on the sidelines of her hair.
"Guard! Leave this room!" he waved to all but his ex-wife.
After all had gone and closed the door, Friedrich approached May.
"Welcome, my Wild Rose. Your hair is no longer long, but I like it.." tried to get close to May to greet her, into a hug. But spontaneously May stayed away. The hand of Friedrich that was about to stroke her hair.
"Uh, I'm sorry, Your Majesty. We are no longer lawful husbands and there is no love between us. So, please, don't try to touch me again."
Although May actually still misses the figure of Frederick whom she once greatly admired, especially because he was actually a very authoritative king in his youth. But again the pain of being divorced freezes that love.
"alright. I can't want to be with you anymore either. Now, there's one request I have if you ever want to see your beloved son again. Yes, it is here, and I will present it to us only when you comply with my request."
King Frederick smiled confidently at the absolute victory in plain sight.
"And this is an order, not a request. Or rather, a command." he added.
"Tell me, don't waste my time." May doesn't want to linger.
"Tell Rey later, if she wants you to stay by her side, she can have whatever she wants. If necessary, there are special bonuses that I offer. I believe I am being kind.
You want a whole family? We can remarry and Rey will take the throne in my place soon. But of course there are conditions. Rey is ours, without Joy.
Because there is no need to add bad-looking wildflowers again in our royal vase."
Mayvelina. How come? What am I supposed to do? Joy and I had similar fates. There's no way I could've asked Rey this. My son's heart will be so hurt.
Between a mother or a beloved girl, how hard it is to choose...
While May was still thinking aloud, suddenly there was the voice of a young, lowly man so familiar at the end of the room, behind a pillar, for some time since he had been there.
"Dad, mom, I'm home, I'm here..I'm home."
