~the servant and the king~

chapter 1

The young boy goes to his cottage in town as it was nightfall. He enters as he smiles softly at the sight of his little brother and sister no later then 4 cuddled together by the fireplace. He signals the nanny Miss Greta which was their sweet elderly neighbor across their cottage that she could take her leave. He hands her 3 gold coins and she smiles gently as she leaves. He takes off his pouch then gloves and work clothes. He starts preparing then soon cooking food he found untouched in the royal kitchen before he left for the night one of the cooks said he could have it.

Meanwhile The king was busy at work as his sister Walt's in, you can hear the click of her heals nearing till she was then by his side. She notices her brother in a deep pit of deep thoughts. So she does what a good sister always does to her twin brother.. Annoy the shit outta him

"Bro bro bro bro mas, massyyy, masooonnm." She stops momentarily, ponders for just a moment. Then smirks with an evil look, a glint of menace in her sweet doe brown eyes. then pokes his cheeks "baby brother-" he stops her midway before she could finish her sentence

" i am 4seconds older and you know it now please do me some good and quiet down" he sighs, rubbing on his temples. His eyebrows all furrowed,
As seen he was writing down a proposal of gaining more allies.

"What's going on?" She asked curious while tilting her head slightly "it didn't work" he grunts in frustration, he was worked up from stressed (or pent up who knows..) "what didn't work??" Now more interested she sits on his desk folding her leg over her other "the new royal cook or whoever he is. He's so odd, he didn't even flinch when he saw me. Not even a look of him skipping a beat" she rolls her eyes and now have lost interest of hearing if her brothers man problems

"oh damn it Mason your still doing this? Your a king remember? Not the dumb play boy prince anymore" she propped her self up to get closer "I didn't ask to be scolded by you of all people Gabrielle. And he's just... new But that doesn't explain..."he pauses as he searches for the words "All men are attracted to me.. especially if we made eye contact with each other. Makes no damn sense"

"try not to read into it baby bro. I mean is it that bad that one guy doesnt fall for u?"he scoffs "Yes it is. Oh my Avalon have i lost my spark???!" he exclaimed dramatically, Gabrielle rolls her eyes and gets off the desk losing energy with talking with her brainless brother."pull your head out of your ass and just stop thinking about yourself or your sex life for once . your a king. Your a Clawthorn" and with that she walks away.
"Fuck.. But who is this guy..."

~next day~
Author had gotten up early as he makes breakfast for his younger siblings.
After he is done he gently rests the plates down then scribbling something on a note then putting it in the center of the table. He then graves his satchel and takes his leave soon after.

He goes to the royal kitchen and hurries preparing the kings and princess Gabrielle's  breakfast.
He notices some of the servants were late which never happened. A young woman who was named Marilyn who normally brings the princess breakfast came down rushing. "The king hasn't awaken yet, his servant is awake just give me the princesses meal. Go with quickly" she had said fast. He nodded  quickly giving the Gabrielle's breakfast to her.
After 20 minutes the servant for king mason still haven't arrived. So he took upon himself to just go up to his office. He went and knocked hesitantly "come in finally u twat" he heard a stern angry say but muffled voice. He takes a breath then walks in.

The king looks up at him surprised "where is Gaius?" He questions raising a brow as he makes eye contact. "I am unaware sire I do apologize to keep you waiting" he bows quickly then goes walking to his desk setting the plate down "is there anything you need?" Author said as he kept keeping his gaze away but kept making subtle eye contact back and fourth.

Mason looks at him "are you a woman?" This took author aback just bit, it was so unexpected but he tried his best to not let the king see. not even a hint of tremble "why would that come to mind sire? do I look like one? Very rude to assume you know" he half smiled.

Now it was mason's turn, he was taken a back and even flinched at bit at the reaction "ah my apologies. Please don't be offended its just uh.." He thinks for an excuse as author trembled in fear on the inside the inside. "That your looks didn't affect sire? Maybe your not that good looking as they say hm? " the king looks up at him with what Audacity did he have.
but not a hint of regret was on Author's soft face."you can't just say that to-" He just bowed and then took his leave
"WHY'D I SAY THAT TO THE KING" thought Author as he mentally cursed himself out
"That little shit.." mason grunted

Mason pov:
"mordred may I have a word?" Mordred stopped in his tracks in the hallway, he turns a heal and walks into my office.
Mordred Wyllt is my most trusted old friend of my father and also a royal physician who is very respected in My Kingdom " yes your majesty?" He said as he mixes medicines
"You are the boys Guardian right the new cook and stable boy yes?"

"Hm you mean author? Yes ..why what has he done now" he sighs raising an eye brow as his lips were pressed tightly together as his hands fold behind his back "has he cause trouble?"
"No no not in any-way. I just need a bit of a history check. I can't seem to find anything. I just wanted to make sure he's not a..you know"

he lean back on my chair "ah.. Well what I know from a letter his mother wrote before she passed that he had gave me. his parents passed away from a flu leaving him to take care of his younger siblings alone for awhile.

When he managed to find me in Camelot not to long ago they were in rough shape" I tied my hands together. I had a gut feeling there was way more to the sorry then he lead on but as I can see its tough of a subject so I'll just press author

" I get it. But keep his mouth in check one day it might get him in trouble" he was a bit surprised by that suggestion
" I am sorry did he say something? I'll make sure to talk to him I am terribly sorry" he bows and leaves
Hm I might need to keep tabs on his family and more importantly author...
