A rule they must abide by and a secret that should never see the light, but things unfolded when secrets built tyrannical chaos and a royal scandal.

For Theo, the decision he made is delicate and quite important. It is a decision he had to lead to ensure the future of their country.
He wasn't expecting to do this sooner but expected the unexpected. He won't mirror what his father did for his country, he will rule it in the way he can. Time might change, but there are rules that he still needs to abide by as he will go through this phase of his life, this is something that will the people believe in his leadership.
He hoped so.
Three knocks on his door alerted him. He quickly walked towards the door and open up for whoever the person there is. As he opened it, it was his mother who showed up along with his siblings.
His siblings quickly get on his side and hugged him around. He laughed as he wrapped his arms around them and thought they were being too overacting for their hugs.
"You know I won't be gone for too long." He chuckled. "It's like I've gone to college, I would be visiting still."
But the look on the faces of his siblings seems to be the opposite of what he was thinking.
"You guys are funny," he said. "We can still Facetime and still talk around. I'm not going anywhere. I'll be... just becoming someone this country needs to be."
"You're still the king, right?" his little sister asked, Isla.
He chuckled. "Yes, Isla. I'm still the king, but will be a better one."
"Give me a hug here, my dear," his mom said opening her arms to get a hug from him. His three siblings give way to their mother and let them both hug. "I'm gonna miss you..."
He laughed. "Mom, just like I've said, I won't be gone for too long..."
"I know that, but..."
"Mom, you know I need to do this, right?"
She let out a deep sigh as he let him go and put her hand on his cheek. "I know... so I want you to focus on it, do your best because we'll wait for you back here and once this is over, we'll see a king this country needs to have."
I nodded as if I have another choice, but to be better.
Not that long before RG Jeremy showed up. Their attention shifted to him and to that point, Theo knew it was time. He bows his head down in front of the royals.
"Your Royal Highness, My King, it's time to leave."
"Thank you, sir," Theo responded.
Before he joined him, he made a quick goodbye to his family. It was hard for him to leave and do this, but he only think about going back to college. He had to stop for a semester to focus on his duty as a king and it was okay for him since they believe people come first. He can continue his studies once everything is settled.
He hasn't had his coronation yet so the timing is very demanding for him—left and right, he needed to be there. To listen, to be the voice, to be the image of a peaceful country.
