Chapter 12.

The Queen and the Prince.

As soon as they arrived at the Kingdom at dusk, the king asked some maids to take care of the child, feed him and keep an eye on him... the child, Cyprianito VI, innocent of the situation, followed the women who offered him sweets and hot chocolate, while the king took the queen by the wrist and took her straight to his bedroom, where as soon as the door closed, tears overflowed from the queen's eyes, but the fury overflowed from the king's arms who tore the dress that Eva was wearing and began to navigate fiercely in his wife's body, she tried to get away from his dominant arms, but unfortunately he was stronger and with a single blow he made her shut up and stay still to satisfy her sexual desires that she had repressed during his absence, she closed her eyes repeating to herself that if she did not see him it was not real trying to deceive herself, that it was only a nightmare and that she still remained in Miss Delfina's house although there was nothing further from reality.

In the morning, when the elders of the court of governments learned that the king had returned they did not hesitate to go to greet the palace, but when they entered they found the child running in all directions while being chased by a bunch of maids, the scene was funny, but nobody knew who the child was, until Luke stopped that chase by putting his foot out so that the child would fall and hit his face; and giving an angry look to the maids he asked them if they were aware that none of their children should be running freely in the king's palace, since this can be treated as an offense to the crown and allowing someone of impure blood to roam freely through the halls and halls as if they were their owner, but one of the maids said: my lord, you do not know the good news yet; yesterday evening the king and queen returned to the palace all lovey-dovey as if they had just gotten married again. 

The one you just knocked down is the prince, so the one who is offending the crown is you and not me. Realizing the situation, all the old men looked at each other and George said: ¿and where are the king and queen right now? and it was then that another maid said: the king and queen have not come down from their room, it seems that both are having fun and making up for lost time. 

The prince got up from the floor sniffling and when he saw the old man who had knocked him down, he pointed at him with his little finger and said: You should die today, crushed by the cattle… Erick, who heard those words, apologized and said: your majesty, forgive us, but we did not know that you had returned, however, you are so considerate in forgiving the offense of these poor old men. 

The boy looked at them, wiped a tear that was rolling down his cheek and said: I will only forgive you if you bring me pudding, otherwise, I will use the power that my father has given me... seeing the situation a bit funny he held back his laughter and said: if your majesty wants pudding, I will get you the best of all, the boy did not answer, but pulled the skirt of the maid who carried him in her arms and they went to the kitchen leaving the old people looking at each other, wondering where they had stopped looking.

When the afternoon came it was the precise moment when the doors in the king's bedroom opened revealing what had really happened in there; The queen had bruises between her arms, bites on her neck and her thighs were bruised and there were scratches on her back, as her hair was also tangled… the swollen eyes on her face showed that this situation had not been consensual, but on the contrary, it was she who had been brutally abused by the king.

Her husband also saw her as a trophy; the midwife Maggie when she found out that the queen was there was the one who went to the room to help her clean her bruised body, and then, behind closed doors the midwife hugged her on her back and rubbed her gently saying: now child do not cry anymore, those words had the correct meaning for Eva who rested her forehead on Maggie's shoulders and let out her tears that she had been repressing, both women cried, Maggie did it because of the pains that came with being a woman and Eva did it because her situation was no different from that of a slave.

After 2 hours of cleaning the queen, letting her vent and dressing her, Maggie let the boy in who, overflowing with happiness, called her mommy, mommy I like this place there are so many tasty things I can try that make my tummy feel happy, the old woman seeing that scene left them alone and went to get some contraceptive tea just as Eva had discreetly asked her to, and so, Maggie went to her room where she had a small fireplace which she often used to cook some s things at night so as not to have to disturb a maid while she was sleeping, and looking through all the herbs she had on her shelf, she took out some thistles and prepared a very concentrated tea for the queen, its taste was bitter, but once she drank it she felt relieved and Maggie left the mother and child alone since they seemed to have a lot to talk about…

Eva understood perfectly that her son felt attracted to greatness, because he had been born with a silver spoon in his mouth and it was in his genes to recognize what best suited him almost as if he were programmed.

The king, who was entering silently, heard that little conversation where Eva told him little Cyprian, if you like this place, mom will like it too, because mom likes everything that you like, but you only have to remember one thing, you can't tell anyone the name I gave you, from now on you are Cyprian VI, son of the kings of Hars, the child nodded and kissed his mother's cheek, put both arms around her neck and with that sparkle in his eyes he said: yes mommy, whatever you want I will do.

The king, seeing such an intimate moment, knew how he had to manipulate his wife if he wanted her to obey him, he would have to persuade the child, which seemed a little funny to him, but fun, since he had never seen a situation as easy as the one a child who had barely turned two years old and spoke fluently with his mother was in, in addition, that he only obeyed her this could be beneficial in many ways both for him as a man as well as for the crown...

The elders of the government court found it a little funny, that every morning when they arrived at the palace, in the discussion room a small child was waiting for them sitting on a piece of furniture telling them: if you want to come in, you have to leave a pudding, so each of the elders made sure to bring a pudding every day to the palace, because it would be like paying to be able to do their job... and the situation was funny, since the prince did it at his convenience, showing that he had the wood to rule with a firm hand, because this child was like a rough diamond to be polished; and the king knew this, so he involved him in all kind of activities, such as annoying meetings with the court of government, even trivial father-son plans, all this with the certainty of winning the boy over so he could bring the woman after him.

Thus, the years passed, the boy was now 5 years old, he was skilled at learning foreign languages, he had well-developed social skills and the sense of belonging could not be lacking, however, every night he escaped from his room to the king's bedroom because he liked to sleep hugging his mother.
