Isaac Hempstead Wright Book 1

Lovers At War P1

I sighed as I watched the sunrise over the green hills, watching as light-flooded on the tallest tree's to the smallest of daisies, the blue sky was hidden behind clouds that passed through the sky quickly and silently, I let out another sigh as I heard a knock on my door.

"Yes?" I asked turning back to the door shutting my curtains 

"Master Isaac, Your father has requested your presents," A maid told me from the other side of the door

"Alright" I sighed running a hand through my hair and getting out of bed getting some clothes on grabbing my glasses and heading down the long staircase to the main dining room "You wanted to see me, father?" I asked

"Ahh Isaac, Perfect" He smiled as he got up from his chair and brought me over to my usual seat on the left of him beside my sister and across from my mother "now Isaac, Once you're done with your breakfast I want you washed and dressed and with me for the council this morning" 

"The council? are you sure father?" I pressed

"Of course, after all your my successor Isaac, and I won't live forever I need you to understand the workings of being king" he explained "And this may in fact be a key moment in our history, one you may have to contend with as well" 

"Who's coming to this council father?" I asked curiously 

"all the usual, and we have invited that dam lot from across the way, been pushing at each other my whole life today we settle or we go to war" He explained 

"Yes father" I nodded finishing a little food and going up to my room, having a hot bath and getting dressed into some nice clothes trying my best to fix my hair before I headed down to the main chamber of the castle, I stayed out of sight for a while a little afraid I cleared my head and my breath before stepping out and standing on the left side of my father's throne my mother on the other side as she smiled at me gently, I saw people looking at me many lords and lady's looking at me even the present people looking at me everyone looking at as much f me as they could see, I hadn't been allowed in the councils, or in public at all for as long as I remember. 

The kingdom celebrated my birth as the first heir to the throne, my mother once told me that the whole kingdom flooded to see me when I was born, men from the furthest reaches of distant kingdoms came to wish me well and to offer their daughters to be my eventual bride, my father turned them all down and decide that the life of a prince should be concealed much like his was until he deemed I was old enough which I suppose means today.

I did my best to stand straight my hands behind my back a little overwhelmed by the number of people here when there was suddenly silence. the doors opened and a man stepped in he was clearly a king of another kingdom on his arm was a young girl, she seemed young enough to be his daughter she wore a beautiful y/f/c dress it reached the floor and had a black corset hugging her waist tightly her dress rather.... revealing, the skin of her chest clear to me both her breasts rather obvious and tight in her dress due to the dress and her corset, her face was beautiful her y/h/c hair done in a thousand different plaits and braids I couldn't help looking at her, I had never really seen any girls, none but my mother, my sister and the few staff girls who worked in the castle, but she was the most beautiful girl in the world. 

"Your grace?" My father said as he stood

"Your grace," his man nodded "I assume this is your Queen?"

"Yes, this is my Queen" He smiled to my mother "I assume this is the Queen of yours I have heard so much about?" he asked indicating to that beautiful girl 

"I'm afraid not, My beautiful Queen died quite some years ago" he explained "This is the only heir she blessed me with my daughter Y/n" 

She gently curtseying "Good Morning your grace" she smiled,
