Fool (1)

"I knew you wouldn't take it well at first but I'm sure you will come around to see why this is good for us and our kind in time. My children will wield many talents. It is not all about sleeping around. I have done that freely for years but this is more about my bloodline," Darius pleaded his case.

He showed he had some respect for Vivienne by not letting her hear about it from someone else. Wouldn't that have hurt her more?

"I told you to get out. I don't want to hear about your bloodline or how you think I will feel once I think it over. I want you out of my sight!" Vivienne yelled, not caring about who overheard the queen being loud with the king.

Darius sighed, annoyed by her temper now but at other times, it was that temper he liked to see. He knew she would come around which made this part of their conversation useless. Vivienne would always be his obedient queen.
