Once Ethan I heard Ethan's door close I felt my face and how hot it was, I chuckled to myself before I walked off to god knows where.

I continued walking around the castle now extremely unsure of where I had ended up, I decided to go into the next door I saw, that next one being a large door that was extremely fancy with gold all over and a huge handle.

Intrigued, I walked inside.

Once the door was open my mouth opened slightly in awe, I looked around and took a step inside to feel the bottoms of my feet be met with carpet, I looked down to the red carpeting to see it was very narrow but long, my eyes trailed down to the end of the carpet to see a large class cabinet, my eyes moved up the cabinet to see a small crown that looked a lot more shiny and expensive.

I opened the cabinet quietly and picked up the small crown that sat on a pillow.

I placed the crown on my head and instantly felt it's weight press down on my bed head.

I walked over to the mirror beside the cabinet and looked at my reflection, I looked like a little prince.
I smiled at myself before continuing to snoop around the room looking for more cool items.

As I walked deeper into the room I found a closet, I opened it to see two outfits, I moved one of them aside and my eyes widened the second I saw the blood covered in them both.

Oh shit.

This has to be Ethan's mom and dads clothes.

Suddenly I heard the door creak open, I bit my lip hard before slamming the closet door closed and swearing under my breath.

"Grayson what the hell are you doing in he-" Ethan began but soon cut himself off as he turned the corner to see me wearing the crown and holding the closet door shut

"H-how did you find this room?" Ethan asked his eyes wide as he starred at the crown on my head

"I was wondering around and just saw the huge door and I was curious so I-" I said cutting myself off knowing he would probably get the point from what I had said

Ethan walked over to me slowly, he picked up the crown from on top of my head and placed it back inside of the cabinet.

"Don't come back in here, ever." Ethan said sternly as he stood at the room door waiting for me to get out

I sighed not really understanding what was so bad about being in here other then the fact that his parents things were in here.

I walked out of the room and began to walk back to my own room not really knowing anywhere else to go.

Ethan's pov:

As I watched Grayson walk away I let out a loud and heavy sigh, I genuinely don't know why I kicked him out, half the time I don't know why I treat Grayson the way I do, he's so Innocent it's not like he would break anything.

And damn, how adorable he looked wearing my crown.

Suddenly I felt someone tap my shoulder from behind me, I jumped and turned around to see Nola standing there.

"Yes?" I asked in an annoyed tone

"T-the people are angry, the council wants to talk to you about it" Nolan said nervously as he repositioned his glasses which where just about falling off his nose

I rolled my eyes and allowed Nolan to show me where this meeting was being held.

I sat down in the chair at the head of the table with everyone in the council sitting on the sides of the table.

The second I walked in everyone stood up and took of their hats and placed it by their hearts, I rolled my eyes. I hate when they do that.

I placed my elbow on the arm rest and held my head up with the palm of my hand waiting for everyone to begin speaking.

"Sooo? Why's everyone so angry?" I asked Boredly

"The village people are mad because they don't believe that you are suitable to be king alone, seeing you are so young and have so little experience that is... sir" one of my least favourite council men said

"What is that supposed to mean?" I asked messaging the bridge of my nose trying to get rid of my newly formed headache

"It means they want a queen... sir, they want you get get- um married" the council man said as he laced his finger within his own

"You're kidding? At 20? They want me married? Is anyone dying?" I said now looking at everyone in the room

"Uh... no... sir?" One spoke while everyone else looked at each other in complete confusion

"Exactly! That means I'm doing my job! I don't see what having a queen will do!" I said now standing up

"Well, everyone is... um... scared of you... sir, no one trusts you with important information and typically women are much nicer and less... harsh" the council man I hated most said poking his head above another council member

I let out a loud exhale before walking out of the room, i angrily walked down the halls until I found myself down Grayson and my hallway.

As I stood in front of Graysons door I contemplated wether or not I wanted to rant and vent to him.

The next thing I new I was walking in his room and plopping onto his bed.
