I smiled watching the children play in the garden with Thomas, him starting to teach them hunting even if they could barely walk.
When Suddenly Lucas ran out of the house he looked desperate for breath
"My Queen" he nodded "My King" He nodded as Thomas had stopped as he saw him come in
"what is it, Lucas?" I asked
"A Messenger On the edge of the city, From the castle," he told me
I looked to Thomas and he nodded "you go," he told me I knew he had been trying to send me out on my own to make the people see me more as well as him wanting more time with our children, he picked up the children in his arms so I grabbed my sword and let Lucas lead me through the city to where some people were gathered snarling at this messenger boy
"Your Majesty" he nodded "I bring Grave news"
"what is it?" I asked
"His Highness the King has passed on," he says
"What-" I asked in shock
"I'm sorry"
"We Will leave immediately" I nodded before heading back
"Y/n! what are you doing?" Lucas asked and I glared
"I'm sorry my queen, But... you can't be serious"
"I am serious, my father is dead I will see him off if nothing else," I explained
"Have you forgotten the Massive war raging! Beyond the walls of this city are bloodshed" he explained "As Queen of the Vampri you leave these walls you could be murdered"
"its a risk I'm willing to take" I answered as we got back
"What news?" Thomas asked
"My father..." I began
"He... passed?" he asked and I nodded "Oohhh My sweet huntress, Did You want to go?" he asks and I nodded "Of course, We'll leave in the morning, take the children," he says kissing my head
"My queen, my king I am your advisor, this is a very bad idea there is a ewar raging outside the city, both the king and queen leave the city your people will revolt believing you abandoned them to die, armies will raid the city if you go" he explained
"That's why your stay here" Thomas said
"What- me?" He asked
"Lucas your our royal advisor, until we return your acting king" I told him "you have full control of the army and you will protect the city till we return" Thomas told him "about time I meet my wife's family" he smiled kissing my cheek "you should start packing up the children"
"I will" I smiled heading of to sort the children.
