Petro had locked himself in his room, he was in a state of panic, although he knew that the marriage wouldn't happen until he becomes 16, he knew as a child engaged to floares house, one of the seven high noble houses of nonveneto, certain behaviors would be expected, he had to excel in swordsmanship, noble behavior, art, horse riding and other high society low-quality manure,

he hated nobility despite being one himself although it must be said that his family lived more like well off commoners, the only exception was his brother Giuliano, his mother was a commoner, marring commoners were not unheard of among low nobles, his father was indifferent to the idea of nobility though he liked the way he could use his title, and his other brother Cosimo was a free soul, Cosimo found the idea of nobility restraining, as for Petro himself he did not hate the nobility as a concept but nobility as an instituted was beyond repair, rampant corruption, misuse of power and other hell creating notions. he couldn't count the number of times when a commoner had to leave his property because a noble had forged a document or when a noble took a young maiden as a lover and tossed her out when she was no longer fun.

as he was analyzing the situation at hand he heard a knocking sound

may I enter

come in

oh it is you dad, I'm surprised you don't usually knock.

well this is an especial occasion.

not even denying the fact that you limit my privacy, what are you CIA.

what is CIA.

I don't know it just rolled of my tongue for some reason.

you can be weird sometimes, anyway you probably know why I'm here

what else could it be, dinner is ready.

why should I knock for that.

Petro walked to the window and leaned toward the outside, after releasing a sigh he said

I know it is just a form of escapism.

look Petro I'm your father, I might not have been the best father that i could have been but i tried my best, I know that I can be selfish and greedy sometimes

sometimes?

respect your dad you ungrateful brat,,,,, anyways, I'm doing this for your own good, for my own child.

for my own good and mentioning the children, politicians trying to sell something stupid to the people 101.

look Petro.

I know it my fate has been sealed, I wont try to do anything stupid.

I appreciate your cooperation, by the way dinner IS ready, see you downstairs.

dad left the room and closed the door behind him, it was true the fate of Petro was sealed,,,,,,,, or what he wanted his father to believe.

that old fart thinks that I'm going to just give up my freedom, I'm not going to be lackey of floares.

and with that he started to devise a plan.

the representative for floares family is probably going to see me to judge whether I'm a good match, so I have to use everything at my disposal to make them leave this house with agony , today is Friday the representative probably chooses the closest timing Saturday most probably , normally marriage negotiations take time but since Cosimo said that he chose someone for me it means that my family has an equal standing, if not better positioned, this also means that the floares are desperate for a deal, the why I don't know, it probably has something to do with the harbor, no that can't be, we do have a claim to the throne even if it is a far-fetched one, maybe they're trying to appeal for the throne in the next selection, then why choose us they're are hundreds of better candidates. it doesn't matter, I should start making plans, maybe a levin macLevenson style of filling the house with traps could work, although I have to scale down the lethality
