The Funeral (2)

The moment Heinrich realized what had happened, he immediately glared at the innocent physicians who didn't know the mistake they had made, driving them away.

But Ezekiel grabbed the young physician who said that, making him cower in fear. "What do you mean the Little Prince?"

The physician immediately understood why Ezekiel was so surprised and why Heinrich hushed them away. The Crown Prince... didn't know about his wife's pregnancy.

"Ezekiel," Heinrich stopped Ezekiel from hurting the innocent young physician. He pulled Ezekiel's arm away, but the man instantly turned to him, staring right into his eyes.

"You've known about this?" he asked.

Heinrich stared back into him. His expression was complicated and pained. The wound that had not closed started to open again, and he knew that Ezekiel... felt even worse.

As Ezekiel grasped his collar and forced him to answer with only his tearful glare, Heinrich grabbed the man's shoulder, trying to hug him.
