Chris had his head leaning against the chair with his eyes closed when Minho walked back inside looking at him with a squint. "So you placed him in the main queen's bedroom chamber upstairs huh... you still love him but too stubborn to talk and work things out with him aren't you?", Minho asked Chris who opened his eyes and glared at him, causing Minho to bow his head.

"Your highness, right now I'm talking as your best friend and I know you trying to keep your word to the late King's wishes, but I think you shouldn't let being the new King cloud your memory, or the memories you both shared before all of this. Please forgive me if I'm out of order. I just hate seeing you both like this when I know how you both feel towards one another", he stated nervously now.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door which Minho quickly went to go open to avoid Chris's angry looks. Another guard entered bowing to the King before whispering to Minho's ear. Minho sighed after the guard left and went up to Chris who's eyes were closed again. "Your highness, the queens and their families have arrived", he said bowing, making Chris open his eyes and clench his jaws together.

.......

Felix was quietly sitting against the door feeling disheartened when he suddenly heard one guard speak before unlocking the door, 'you've got 5 minutes Mrs Lee'. Felix quickly stood up as the doors opened, revealing his worried and teary mother who immediately embraced him as he cried out all over again.

"It's okay... It's okay my darling, we'll work something out okay... I can't stay long", she said in sorrow while Felix held her tightly as he cried out more. Mrs Lee knew she can't stay long, so she gathered her strength and shook Felix in her arms, "Felix...listen my boy, please listen to me, I don't know why Chris is this way, but I won't let you go through this, I will do everything I can to get you out but you've got to be strong for me right now, you can't let him see you like this, you stronger than that", she whispered in his ear.

A knock came on the door and Mrs Lee knew why, "I have to go now but I'll be back tomorrow with help, I promise", she said trying to break away from Felix who was clutching on to her tightly. "Noooooo... Ma please... please don't leave me here, PLEASE!!!", he screamed in her arms when the guards suddenly opened the door heading towards them.

Because of motherly instincts, she suddenly also held on to her crying son tightly as they both cried while the guards tried separating them with so much difficulty.

.......

The expressionless Chris was seated back on his throne in the main hall room with Minho and Changbin standing by his sides, while they faced the 2 royal families in front of them. The royal family on his right 'The Hwangs' consisted of the bored looking Hwang Hyunjin, his soon to be Queen, accompanied by his parents. The royal family on his left 'The Kims', consisted of Jennie Kim his other soon to be queen who kept gazing at Chris with flirtatious eyes accompanied by her parents.

Chris extended his hand gesturing them to take a seat. The families bowed before doing so, then the fathers from each royal family stood up to introduce each of their family members before bowing to Chris, who acknowledged them.

Minho came forward and bowed to them before clearing his throat, "On behalf of the King as his right hand, We welcome you, and thank you for accompanying our soon to be queens safely to the castle. As you know, the King whose seen you now, will not be able to see you again until the wedding and being throned as the new King tomorrow afternoon. Also, as our trusted allies, we will show you guest rooms to take rest now till tomorrow, while our soon to be queens go to their allocated bedroom chambers, one on the east wing, the other to the west wing of the castle. As you know, they'll be going for a short preparation session to becoming the new queens. They will each also be given maidservants that will cater to their every needs. Any questions before we proceed?", Minho asked giving each family a smile while Jennie's father nervously raised his hand.

Mr Kim: Right hand, thank you for the warm welcome. I believe this magnificent castle has a main queen's bedroom chamber up here in the north wing next to the King's. And so, as per my daughter's request, I was wondering if she would take that room, for she and us as her parents believe she will give the King many heirs.

Minho quickly faced Chris who looked away clenching his jaws, thus Minho cleared his voice to face Mr Kim again.

Minho: Mr Kim, I believe that room is already taken...

Both families looked at each other in bewilderment and astonishment, while Hyunjin chuckled facing his parents.

Hyunjin: I knew the rumors about another queen being here were true, so when do we meet her or him?....

Mr Hwang: Hushh Hyunjin...Right hand, please don't mind my son. I know our new King can't respond or talk to us as per tradition before the wedding tomorrow, but as your trusted allies, we'd like him to explain about this mysterious queen who he's never mentioned to us?...

Minho again looked at Chris who didn't respond or entertain their questions, instead, Chris was whispering something to Changbin, "So is he the one they say likes to talk alot and gossip?", Chris asked Changbin who nodded his head, "I believe so your highness".

Minho: Friends, please respect our soon to be new King and tradition, as he cannot talk to any of you till tomorrow's day is over. But to answer your questions, yes there is a third queen he'll Wed tomorrow as well.

Jennie: Then you tell us who that is, what royal family does that person come from, and why must they take the main queen's chambers....i think I'm more suitable to take it, just look at me.....

Minho scratched his head in frustration before facing Chris again, who ignored them while whispering to Changbin once more, "And is she the promiscuous one?", Chris questioned Changbin who gave him another nod, "Yes your highness".

Chris smirked before getting up and clearing his voice, startling everyone in the room. "I will talk just this once due to your helpfulness during the war. As much as my late father and I allied with your families, we still paid you handsomely for your soldiers. And more so, I agreed to marry each of your children as per your requests to Ally with us. But!....I.Do.Not.Ow.You any explanations about my other soon to be queen who's in this main chamber. Therefore, I will see you all tomorrow afternoon, goodday", Chris stated before marching out the hallroom with Changbin following behind.

Jennie: My god, he's so Hot!.....

Hyunjin: Did he just call us children?...
