Silence fills the chamber as Ross gapes at Lianne without making a single twitch. She has this knowing smirk on her sweet face, a symbol of someone proud of their little mischief. If the girls are in any way surprised about this reveal, they don't show it in any way. But, considering the fact that they've been under the wing of Elea and the other amazing ladies, I wouldn't be surprised to learn that they know everything about my relationships already. Plus, they certainly must have seen us together in the bath earlier.

"What...?" The King finally manages to utter a barely comprehensible word. "Did you...?"

The Queen continues her games and starts squinting at him like a mother scolding her unruly son. Technically, she is one, but I'm not so sure about the latter part. It's more like she is the naughty one for suddenly dropping such a bomb on him out of the blue. Looks like we might have some spanking to do later.

"Finally! Hahahahaha!" Ross breaks his daze and lunges at Lianne, catching her in a powerful hug. "I thought you would never give yourself a chance, hahahaha!"

He starts spinning them in circles while she yells at him to stop while hitting the overjoyed man repeatedly on the head. Naturally, those aren't harmful smacks and he shrugs them off without even registering the assault. Lianne definitely should be able to escape his grasp now after she has access to my stats but she chooses not to and remains hanging above the ground as her much taller son dances happily.

After a short while, Ross relents and places his mother down. She huffs at him angrily as he chuckles awkwardly. These two are pure comedy right now. And only one of them is acting. I guess the other has always been kind of a clown, to be honest. Extroverted people glow way too much.

"This is great news! You have no idea how ecstatic I am! Congratulations to you both!" He turns to me with a wide grin that barely fits on his face. "So, when can I expect a little brother?"

"Rossberg!" Lianne smacks him up the back of the head again.

"Now, hold your horses, boy." I snicker while addressing him like my own kid. "This kind of decisions are best left in the hands of adults. Be a good lad and focus on playing kingdom while we take care of such things."

The Queen can't hold back a giggle of her own and the King bursts out with an amused laughter too. I might have just gained a new way to fuck with him and tease the bastard. It might not be available to be used in the general public but private settings should be enough for me.

"Are you already on the case?" He waggles his brows at me and earns himself another hit.

"As the head of this family, I would advise you to stop teasing your mother before you end up with a concussion, or worse, turn into an idiot. Though, now that I think of it, I'm not sure if that's a risk that can be applied to you," I reply with a smirk.

"Enough of this!" Lianne chimes in for the first time since the reveal. "Sit down now before I whip you up in front of your father like in the good, old times!"

Ross' eyes widen briefly as he looks at me and obediently backs off to the sofa. I can imagine how the threat of getting your ass trashed with a belt in front of your best friend could make you feel. And from his reaction, this isn't just an empty threat either. Someone must have been a bit of a troublemaker during his childhood. And I can easily see that.

"So, I guess the cat is now officially out of the bag, huh," I comment, turning my attention to Lianne, who fixes her dress and hair before sitting down too. "Are you good talking about such things with them present?"

I gesture to the side with my thumb at our obvious spectators. They might be staying perfectly still and silent, but there's no way they aren't listening to the extremely amusing spectacle happening right in front of them.
