Eric's pov

As I walked into the castle people moved like working ants. Within minutes a crowd of people all around me Ipads and papers and pens in my face. Things that needed to be sighted and all kinds of things. It all stopped when I walked to the guarded doors of the garden. The doors were opened for me and I walked in happily. Everyone else was stopped. It was a short walk to the table the royal family was sitting at but I took the long way to look at the flowers and the bards and all the garden had to offer. When I walked upon the table I noticed someone was missing. He was hard to miss considering he stood at 6'6 with green and gray eyes and earth-kissed skin.

I was snapped out of my train of thought when I saw something about to get flung across the table. That's when I calmly walked over to where the things were about to be thrown and quickly grabbed them, that's when the pouty face of a 5 year old looked up at me ¨i'm sorry love but no throwing your breakfast this morning¨ I say putting the peace of fruit back on her plate and smile. I looked up quickly and I could feel a death glare on me. So with that I smiled and walked away. when I got back inside the castle I went to my office to see a stack of papers on my desk and a team of people in the room I knew things would be busy with Noland being named the queen's air, but god that's when I took a deep sigh and then spoke

¨can I help all of you¨ I say with a smile ¨yes, where is the crown prince¨ that one sentence is yelled at me with many other questions
about Noland. I look at them all in no surprise at all. If there is anything to know about the crown prince it is that he expects everyone to run on his time but that's not how the world works but I do have a good idea of where he is. after I calmed everyone down and promised to get the prince to work.

I proceeded to storm to the other side of the castle, and within minutes I was in front of his door and pissed and I have the right to be. Im his assistant , im responsible for him getting to work meetings and business launches and bullshit like that but does he appreciate me? No no, he does not! With that, I calmly opened the door and walked to his closet to see rows and rows of clothes,suits,shoes and sneakers. I take no time moving to the suits and picking something out for him.

When I was done I left the room and came back with breakfast for the man who had no right to even still be asleep, the man who had the nerve to sleep in on a day like this. After setting the plate down I quickly walk over to his bed about to wake him when I see something I haven't seen in a while... he was peaceful for the first time in maybe 5 weeks he was peaceful no yelling, no screaming, no grumpiness none of it. Just steady breaths that I didn't want to end but they had to because we were running low on time. And we don't have all-day "prince Noland it's time to wake up your grandmother will be here in an hour," I say trying to be nice about it and hide how badly i wanna strangle him . Still, he just turns his head, grumbles, and lies back down. If I'm honest I'm done with his shit so I picked up a pillow and hit him with it over and over again by the 7th hit he was up and yelling at me.

Still, I didn't stop "stop I'm up," he snapped in a sleepy voice but did I care... no "no you fucking inconsiderate prick" I say with the anger rising back in me, "I said stop" was the last thing I heard before he throws the pillow aside and pinned me to the bed. "I thigh I told you to stop hitting me with that damn pillow" his voice was still low and sleepy but he had pushed me to the edge more than he usually did so did what I would do with any other person I used my advantages to turn us around to where I was pinning him to the bed my thighs straddling his waist "and I thought I told you that today was important" I shot daggers at him and the looks only got colder when he tried to speak when his mouth finally stopped moving I let him go and walked out but not before I made sure he was getting ready. I took this opportunity to go check the little ones.

When I got to the little ones' common room no one was ready like usual... "Jaxson, Eric, Max, Lana, and lilly come with me" I said as they all followed me out. Jaxson was the oldest being 8 Eric and max (the twins) are next being 7 Lana's 5 turning 6 in about a week and Lilly is 5. When we finally got to the dressing room I picked out what they were wearing and let them get ready with a little help if needed in the end the boys ended up in their preferred suits and the girls in their cream-colored dresses there was a beautiful flower design on them with flower themed jewelry
