Son!!

You!!

Kiara said as Dexter stood infornt of her door.

Can we have a talk?? Dexter said looking at Kiara.

OK.

See you in the sitting room. Dexter said as he walked out.

Weird, Kiara said looking at him.

**King Donald's palace **

What did you want to do?? Xavier asked Claire.

I want to inflict pain in him, I was about to end him and...

And what?? Claire, he destroyed everything you loved and he killed your parents and you wanted to give him such a plain, kind and merciful death.

No, I fell in love with a lioness and I would like to marry her. So if you want to act like a coward by giving him such a easy death then you aren't the one I loved because she would have completely destroyed, crushed his life and everything he cares about...

Claire, you lost your temper and almost killed him and that was your mistake. You should have used your anger and inflicted more pain on him. Xavier said wiping her tears.

Showing your weakness wouldn't help you, Claire hugs him tightly as she cried.

Let's go. Xavier hugs Claire.

**Serein Kingdom **

Kiara walks to the sitting room.

Sit down, Dexter said in a deep voice.

Who are you?? Dexter said looking at Kiara's facial expression.

Well.. I am Rachel.

Where are you from??

Well.. Kiara was shocked at the question.

I didn't think of that, Kiara said in a low tone.

Where are you from??

I.. I..

I am from Serail.

Serail??

Do you work for the King or any of the royals?

Oh lord, why is he asking all these questions.

y..

No, Kiara said with a bold face.

Then how did you get such an expensive dagger, I mean this is pure gold.

w...w.. well. I.. Kiara mubbles in fear.

Who.. Who are you?? Kiara said trying to avoid the question.

You haven't answered my question. Dexter said looking really angry.

Well..

At a particular party,

The prince had been sick so I treated him and they gave me a large amount of money and this royal dagger.

But...

Dexter is interrupted by the sound of a key to the door.

Oh Lord, I was just saved by the key. Kiara said in a low tone.

Who is there?? Kiara asked as Dexter stands up smiling.

The door opens.

**Xavier's palace **

Claire sits on the bed as she laid her head on Xavier's shoulder.

I wish everything could go back to the same, Claire said looking at Xavier.

Sometimes, change can be good.

Now look at Dexter, he finally got his smile back...

After a while, Claire said.

Yeah, we all thought he would never recover.

Your sister brought him back to his loving caring, carefree spirit.

Claire smiles.

I know he must be giving Kiara a hard time.

No, he will go to Friend's house first then before he mets Kiara. Xavier said.

Friend, we haven't seen her in a long time.

Maybe you, but Dexter and I always goes there when we are not busy .

What!! Claire said raising her head off his shoulder.

I meant we will go and see her if we were not occupied.

Then why didn't you tell me or even take me, she will think am avoiding her.

No, she wouldn't think like that and she has done so many things for us and especially Dexter she really took care of him after the incident.

I know but...

Don't worry, the most important thing is that Kiara must be in the kingdom.

I already sent her to Dexter.

How?? Xavier asked.

Well, she is with Friend.

But you were yelling at me for not taking you to Friend, so how did you meet her.

I didn't meet her, I guided Kiara to her.

OK.

I hope Dexter will impress her, Claire said.

Dexter, will never try to impress a girl.

He is always who he is and he doesn't care what others say or think about it.

Am sure he must be giving Kiara a hard time to cope with him.

Oh, really you aren't as innocent as you look, Claire said pulling his nose.

Easy, if you break it what will the girls think.

What!! Claire yells as Xavier eyes widened with fear.

I will kill you!! Claire said as Xavier runs out.

Come back here, Claire runs after him.

I'm sorry, Xavier said running around the sitting room.

Who are ...

The girls?? Claire yells throwing things at him.

No one. Xavier said.

Please don't kill me..

I mean am too handsome to die by my wife's hands, what will they said when they find out that a wife killed her innocent husband.

Who are they??

Thank you, Xavier said as Claire stops.

Arrgh!!

Xavier shouted as Claire touched him from behind.

This is cheating, Xavier said running into the room.

Xavier runs into the room locking the door.

Hi, Claire said.

This is cheating. Xavier said walking towards Claire.

Well everything is fair in love and war.

Claire said walking closer to him.

ah!! Claire screams as Xavier quickly grabs her by the waist smiling.

Wait, this was a plan. Claire said looking at Xavier.

Yes, a clever one.

This is cheating, Claire said trying to free herself.

Well you said it, everything is fair in love and war.

And this my dear is love.

Really?? Claire pushes him away walking towards the door.

I locked it, Xavier said looking at Claire.

Well I can still leave.

My sweet wife, I have make sure that you can't leave.

Xavier said holding Claire hands.

Claire was shocked as she received a peg on her cheek.

Claire wraps her hands around Xavier neck.

I didn't know that I married a cheater. Claire said smiling.

Well, love can make anyone do things he didn't expect to do. Xavier said as he held Claire by the waist.

I had a dream, Xavier said looking at Claire.

Which dream, did you dream about another woman, Claire said removing her hands.

No!! I actually dreamt about you.

So what was the dream?

Well I dreamt that you were holding a cute little girl, she had eyes like me and lips like you and she had your hair and my skin color.

Claire couldn't help but smile.

So.... Claire said looking at Xavier.

Well I want my dream to come true.

But I want a boy. Claire said looking at Xavier.

Whatever you want as far as the child is as beautiful as you. Claire smiles and hugs him.

**Serein Kingdom **

You!! Kiara said in surprise

Dexter, Friend said as Dexter gave her a hug.

How are you?? Friend said pulling his cheek.

Be careful or else the girls will attack you. Dexter said smiling.

You silly boy.

Friend walks in closing the door .

Where are my manners, Dexter this is..

Rachel, Dexter said interrupting Friend.

Oh, you have already met.

Well that's great.

Rachel am so sorry....

About what?? Rachel asked.

I didn't show you the kitchen and I left you without giving you food.

No, MA...

Not ma, call me friend.

OK, Friend.

Well, he helped me find the kitchen.

Oh, am I not so good? Dexter said patting his long hair.

You will never change.

How can I, am Dexter after all.

Hmmm, silly boy. Kiara stood there looking at them, confused.

Oh, sorry. Friend said looking at Kiara.

This is my son. Friend said pulling his cheek

Son!!! Kiara eyes widened with shock.
