(Y/N) POV

Despite the throbbing pain in my arm and the headache from blood loss, I felt quite refreshed. I wake up in a surprisingly comfortable bed. Also a weird pillow and a weight on my stomach. I look to see Sylvia laying in between my legs with her head on my stomach. Then my head was on Mila's lap, whom is laying down. Both of them were sleeping in the same bed as me. My brain doesn't register what was going on until a few minutes later. I bet I look stupid right now. I then hear a knock on the door. I whispered to lul them out of sleep.

(Y/N): "Mila! Sylvia! Wake up there is somebody is at the door!"

Mila: "Mmmmmm . . ."

Sylvia: "I don't wanna . . ."

They both lazily shift to avoid my attempts. Sigh, guess it's up to me. I gently lifted Sylvia up and got up to the door. I opened it to see one of pirates. It seems he is surprised to see me. I remember now, he was one of the men that didn't partake the battle.

Pirate: "Uuuhh, is uh, captain there? I have the response from the king here."

(Y/N): "Yes, though I will take the message."

The pirate knew what I'm capable of so he gives me the letter. I look at the seal and I immediately knew that the negotiations failed. I see Mila walk out of the room embarrassed.

Mila: "Could . . . This stay between us? Please?" I nod.

(Y/N): "You have my word."

Mila: "Is something wrong?" I hand her the note, she broke the seal and begins to try to read it. "I-I see. I will be right back."

(Y/N): "You can't read can you?"

Mila: "N-no. Don't tell anyone!"

(Y/N): "Again, you have my word." I put my hand out. "I have a feeling of what it is but I will read it to ya."

She hands me the message:

To the Captain of The Silver Serpant,

We decline your offer in the return of (Y/N) (L/N), or as self-proclaimed the son of the King of Aliousis. We have seen this boy mingling with you pirates which therefore makes him a traitor of the Kingdom. Should he return he will be hanged. There will be no trade.

King and Lord of Aliousis, Marcus Atruis.

After I was done reading, I was slammed against the wall by Sylvia.

Sylvia: "You lied to us!?"

Mila looked equally as angry.

(Y/N): "I never lied."

Mila: "Then why does this letter say your name is (Y/N) (L/N)!?"

(Y/N): "That is my new name at the start of three years ago."

They looked confused by this. Sylvia dropped me.

Sylvia: "Explain NOW! Who are you really?"

I got up and looked straight into their eyes.

(Y/N): "I never lied, I just danced around the truth. I AM the blood kin of King Marcus, I was disowned three years ago and stripped of my title and right to the throne." Mila and Sylvia seems to be surprised. "And I also did say my relationship was straining. That is all you asked, what is my relationship with my father. I added in one of the many reasons why it is like that so you wouldn't ask the cause. I also didn't lie about why I was out that night. You see, I didn't lie, I just found ways around your questions."

Both of them weren't happy with the fact that I wasn't wrong.

Mila: "I have a question."

(Y/N): "Yes?"

Mila: "What really happened between you and Marcus? I . . . We want the whole story this time." Sylvia nodded.

(Y/N): "Okay, no holding back. Do you want the short or long version?"

Mila & Sylvia: "Long version."

(Y/N): "Okay."

I give them my full story. From the beginning to today. They seem to listen intently. An hour later my story was told. They seem to space out at the end, trying to put the pieces together.

(Y/N): "My time away from the royals have been . . . enlightening. I knew I would never get my title back and become king, but if chance were to allow it I would have led my kingdom differently."

We all sat there in silence. I want to know what will happen. I kind of assumed so I decided to ask.

(Y/N): "So I'm going to guess there will be an execution." Both of their eyes shot up to mine. "You have no more use for me, so this is the only option that I see happening."

They both looked at each other then back to me.

Sylvia: "Why did you lie to us? Before we took you."

(Y/N): ". . . . . I wanted to give the people enough time to prepare. I was hoping to be here for a day at least. I just wanted to give them time, that's all, before I die."

They both got up. They looked serious.

Mila: "Excuse us for a minute. Stay here."

They left, I did as told and just sat there. After what felt like forever they came back. Sylvia walked up to me with a smile.

Sylvia: "Wanna join the crew!?"
