I am no King.

"Thanks for everything Ned, but I'm not coming back to your house tonight.

And as for your request, I'll take it into consideration, I'll see if there's anything I can do...despite that I prefer Garrick to not get his memories back."

"You know, Thanks to you I had a difficult time making anyone believe my claims of their past lives, Freddie."

"Listen Purple pony, you said it before... nothing will wipe my record clean, I can't promise you for sure but for now...I'll do my best to hold back."

"I appreciate that Freddie, And I hope we remain in touch so i can update you on Faunus's state." Ned said offering a handshake, "I can't promise you that either, but I'll definitely try...I don't like it when people are nice to me, it makes me feel in debt.

Ugh...I seriously should've just stabbed Yurei to death! what does Tacito see in him anyways!" Fernando said annoyed, but still shook Ned's hand.

Letting go of Fernando's hand, "Mates don't pick each other, although those two have been strongly attached to one another since childhood.

And You're not the only one who wants to punish that menace...But stabbing is going too far." Ned replied.

"Oh yeah?! how come you're okay with the Spencers btw?"

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"In Derora...I came across something in relation to you, and I think you already know about it." Fernando said.

"Really? what is it?" Ned said clueless.

...[Tiny flashback]...

Although being in Aroon's body was bothersome for Fernando, it came with perks.

Pretending to be the Junglaya king's assistant, meant enjoying the authority it comes with it, even in a foreign country.

So As Fernando slowly made his way to the doctor's office to see what Ned was up to, All the servants bowed down to him.

Except for one, Lucius was standing outside Ned's office, he was mumbling to himself whether he should go inside or not when he noticed Fernando coming his way.

The Jet-black hair servant was terrified when he saw the assistant whom he thought to be Aroon at the time, and immediately ran off making Fernando frown at Their interaction.

As The fake assistant reached to the office, he saw a sign that says 'Unless you're his Majesty, this gonna have to wait.' hanged on the door.

"Ugh Ned...is this guy serious?!" Fernando whispered to himself while twisting the doorknob, but before he pushed the door open, "Is everything alright, sir?" A chubby blonde maid asked as she Opened the door from inside, she was pushing a somewhat gigantic janitorial cart.

Faking his best smile, "Oh, I wanted to see the doctor...is he not in the office?" Fernando asked.

"Oh! he left to run some errands! I was the only one inside, cleaning." the maid replied, "Really...then what was Lucius doing here? he was standing at the door." He asked.

"Lu was standing outside?" She replied puzzled, "Seems like you're as clueless as I am...what's your name Missy?" he asked maintaining a bright smile.

"Oh! my name is Darla, sir." she replied cheerfully, "And where is this beautiful Darla going to?" he said making her blush.

"I have to go to Miss Belmonte's office, I have to clean it quickly before she meets his Majesty there...it seems like something bad happened and I don't want to upset her." She replied, but then covered her mouth when she realized she spilled too much information.

Getting an idea, "Oh I see, i hope that you do not mind helping me out Darla."

"HUH?! why do you need My help sir?!"

"I need to get inside Miss Belmonte's office...there's guards everywhere and I am not allowed inside without her, due to a past incident."

"Sir this is dangerous! I could be jailed for this."

"Your involvement will remain a secret, and I will reward you handsomely Darla." Fernando replied slyly.

...Few minutes later...

As Darla pushed her cart around, "Sir, please promise me that my name won't be mentioned in case you got caught." she whispered terrified.

"Don't worry, just remembered what I told you...once the 14 minutes pass, come to the office and open the door so I can escape before I turn visible again." Fernando whispered back from inside the cart, as he hid there.

"14 minutes...Un-Understood!" Darla replied nervously.

As Darla made her way further into the hallways, she met an older servant that was walking towards her and was immediately scolded, "DARLA YOU PIG! WHERE THE HELL YOU'VE BEEN?! YOU BETTER GO QUICKLY TO MISS BELMONTE'S OFFICE! SHE AND HIS MAJESTY ARE GOING TO BE IN THERE SOON!" the elderly Woman yelled.

"Yes ma'am, right away!" Darla replied nervously, the rude elderly woman then shoved into Darla intentionally and stormed off in the other direction.

"Ugh, she must be the bitch Darla wants me to curse." Fernando whispered to himself, he was so pissed by the way the old lady treated Darla.

Darla continued pushing the cart until they finally made it to the office, And Fernando quickly got out.

"What should I do now sir?" Darla asked but immediately got flustered as Fernando stripped himself naked from his clothes, and gave them to Darla.

Blushing, "What should I do with these?!" she asked, "Keep them for me, Until I come back.

Now, clean the office so no one will suspect anything." Fernando replied, and sat down while Darla began cleaning.

There was still little time left before Socorro came to her office, so the maid tidied-up the place as quick as she could.

And once Fernando was satisfied with her work, "Now leave, And Remember, 14 minutes once Socorro and the king walk in, you come back and open the door...make-up any Excuse to do so, got it?" Fernando said, and Darla Nodded before quickly leaving the office with her cart.

Once the maid was out, Fernando used his ability to go invisible, while simultaneously used a spell that would hide his dark aura so Socorro wouldn't notice him, and hid himself in the nearest corner to the door.

He knew he needed to be careful because using both abilities drained his mana quickly, that's why he agreed with Darla to help him escape later, since he couldn't teleport or use any other spells without blowing his cover.

In a minute, Socorro and Muriel walked into the office, both looking as stressed as ever.

"Your majesty now that we are alone, you can speak freely." Socorro said, "Coco even my sister knew about this! it makes me feel sick! we are sitting on a throne that is not ours, while the real king is few steps away!" Muriel replied clutching a document.

"The real king is you Muriel...regardless of what that piece of paper in your hands says."

"You may think that coco, but nothing can change the truth, the doctor is the rightful heir to the throne."

Fernando was listening in with full attention, He was grateful no one can see how wide his eyes went.

Sitting down, "Muriel, this Kingdom relies on you, and I can't see anybody else fit for this job other than you.

The doctor is clever and I have to admit he's a good person but he is no King.

Do you realize how much work and trouble this is? if you were to reveal the truth, you could put everyone in danger!" Socorro said.

"Are you implying that I should lie and hide this?! he is family now! I cannot ignore him!" Muriel replied, "Yes I am implying that you should keep it Undercovers, and first of all we need to see if Ned actually knows his heritage or not." She said.

"You mean there is a possibility Neddie already knows?!"

"Yes your majesty, and since he hasn't spoke of the subject yet, we can safely assume that he's not interested in your position."

"Why do you think he is uninterested?"

"If what you've told me about Ned's mother is true, then there must be a reason why she was hidden from the public as a baby...your grandmother had no right to exclude her from the Royal family.

And as for why I think the doctor wouldn't be interested, it's because of his relationship with his father Lord Raud Valentino." Socorro explained.

Sighing, "That devilish man, I guess the best course of action right now is to investigate my Aunt's past and Ned's as well." Muriel said to which Socorro nodded to, "Yes, Before we make any irrational decisions we need to know the story behind this, and once things are clear...we can have the doctor over for a little talk and then we'll decide what do." she replied.

"But I feel bad, Ned's mother and her family went through hell because of what my grandparents did...And worst, she married Lord Valentino...my poor auntie."

"I understand your frustration Muriel, but the past is in the past now."

"Coco, why do you think that Ned's relationship with his father, may cause him to refuse being announced as a member of the Royal family?" Muriel asked.

"Because Ned simply despises his father.

Matilda has told me a little about Lord Raud Valentino, she mentioned that he was extremely abusive towards the doctor and his mother.

And after Ned's mother ran away with her mate, Raud Valentino Attempted to lock Ned in the house and tried to control every bit of his life.

The doctor started sneaking out of the house and hide in the woods, that's how he managed to save your life that day." Socorro replied.

"When I first met Ned, he was covered in bandages and his face was bruised-up, I bet that sick Noble trash did that to him, that is why Ned knew how to treat my wounds at such a young age.

Now I understand why he refused to be associated with me at that time, he must have been afraid his father will discover he left the house and would punish him." Muriel said in a sad tone.

"After what you told me and what Matilda said as well, I come to the conclusion that Lord Valentino's obsession with Ned and your Aunt is simply because he knew she was the hidden princess." Socorro spoke-up.

"This is more the reason why we need to come clean to Ned!" Muriel said, "Your majesty I understand, but do you honestly think that bringing the subject up to him is a good idea?" Socorro replied.

...[End of Tiny flashback]...

"So say...your majesty Ned, how come you're okay with the Spencers?" Fernando asked.

"So you know about me being the rightful heir to the throne." Ned replied.

"If it wasn't for what Muriel's grandfather did, you'd probably have lived a comfortable life within the palace walls.

You could've been the most powerful figure in Derora! but all of that was taken away from you! you had to live with an abusive father and your mother chose her mate over you.

Yet, despite all of this, you treated the Spencers with kindness." Fernando said, "Why?" he added asking.

"Not every Spencer caused me misfortune, at least not Muriel or his sister or even Yurei.

I wouldn't take revenge on people that didn't do me wrong, and if there's anybody who deserves my wrath, it would be my father not my mother.

Because she did what she needed to do to survive even if that was running away." Ned replied.

"What about being a king?"

"Freddie, I am no King."

"Honestly me neither, but it's just wrong."

"Not as wrong as killing an entire Household." Ned replied.

"The style family deserves everything they receive." Fernando said.

"All of them Freddie? are you sure... what about your brother ? what about Grey? or Leonard or..."

"Maybe not all of them, but that family is a Nest for evil."

"And so are you, Freddie."
