*their dialogs will be in English*

"Master, Justin." I heard two knocks on my doors.

I just finished putting on a tee shirt.

"Yes?" I asked.

"The king and Queen requests for your presence in the first floor livingroom" A voice called out. It was Jennifer, the head maid.

I checked the wall clock. It was about 5:30 and we usually had dinner somewhere around 6.

I was really annoyed because I was thinking about Iman and now my thoughts are interrupted.

I rolled my eyes.

I rather stay here.

And do nothing.

"I'll be down." I said dismissing her

I began walking down the stairs that lead to the first livingroom which was located on the first floor.

It was actually kind of confusing considering this palace was too big for its own good and had many open spaces and doors.

The interior was a sight though. Everywhere you'd turn, you could expect to see gold.

As I got closer to where "I'm supposed to be" the chatting got louder.

Some voices weren't those that belonged to my parents.

"Ah, its the future King of our beloved country!" A voice said. I looked to see the Duke and his family sitting in the royal living room as well as my parents.

Am i missing something?

I nodded my head as I acknowledged them and took a seat next to my mother who smiled warmly at me.

"Pattie, your son has gotten more handsome than the last time we've seen him." The duchess said as her and my mother laughed.

I also glanced at the two daughters of the Duke.

Lady Victoria and Lady Natalie.

I haven't seen them either in quite a while but I'm not complaining.

I guess Victoria caught me staring because she looked down at her lap and blushed. I wasn't going to lie, but she was very attractive.

Her sister on the other hand, was pretty as well, but Victoria was more beautiful.

"Yes, he's been a very busy man.Meetings here and there, getting involved with affairs, my, he'll be one hell of a successor." my Father said as everyone laughed.

I didn't see what was so funny but I laughed too.

I saw Victoria steal glances at me from time to time which made me only smirk. This could be interesting.

"Shall we have our dinner now?" My mother asked as we all got up from our seats and walked to the dining area.

As we sat down about 7 maids came and Set the plates down on the table.

My Father sat at the head table, I sat by his right and my mom sat On his left. The duke and his family came to sit next and I saw Victoria sit on my left.

One of the maids sat my plate in front of me. It was the maid that was always nervous when she was around me.

"Thank you," I smiled at her. She nodded her head as she returned my smile.
