Day three. Final day.
Draven woke up to Elise's face. Close. Inches away.
She was watching him. Eyes soft. Worried.
"Good Morning," he said.
"Hmm Morning." She touched his cheek. Gentle. "Today's the day."
"Yeah."
Three days of thinking,Planning,Researching,Talking to Duke Valerius, Mara, Elise. Everyone had opinions. Everyone thought they knew what he should do.
But it was his call. His choice.
Crown Prince. Future King.
Or.
Stay free. Stay himself.
[System]: *DECISION DAY HOST*
*The throne*
*Or freedom*
*What's it gonna be? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)*
Elise kissed his forehead. SMOOCH. "Whatever you choose. I'm with you."
"I know."
She got up. RUSTLE. Started getting dressed. "Breakfast in twenty minutes. Duke Valerius is coming over. Early."
"He say why?"
"Just that he needs to talk before you decide."
Great. More opinions.
But. Valerius wasn't stupid. Guy knew politics. Knew power. Worth hearing him out.
