I'M GONNA BE THE MAIN EVENT

like no king was before

It always seemed he made a plan in his mind to spend more time with his sister, and yet when it came around to doing so - there always seemed to be something getting in the way. Yet, her he was again making plans - only this time he had set it in his mind to accomplish his goals and not just let them fall by the wayside. He would spend more time with his sister, it was certain. Besides, the children - his children that were only days or weeks away from being born - would need their aunt in their life as much as possible. They would need to be socialized, and occasionally watched by someone other than their parents. The more eyes on his children, the better.

As the words began to spill from her lips, his features softened and grew sympathetic. The loss of their mother had taken a considerable toll on her, and here he was thinking about anything but that. He should have known she would need him to get through this trial. What a horrible brother I am. More words came, these referring to Gideon's departure. Surely she hadn't been upset about that? He knew she hadn't wanted to marry their uncle, but she was willing to do it for Gerhardt's sake. Why wasn't she pleased at his leaving? Ah, it all made sense suddenly. It wasn't as if things had broken off with Gideon, he'd left for Chrysanthe. Kamala was feeling as if she wasn't good enough, as a daughter and a potential wife.

"Sweet sister, you did everything you could for mother. Remember, she chose to leave Seracia - Gerhardt would have let her stay. She chose to challenge him, and she asked for her life to be taken. You couldn't have helped her... none of us could." Somehow he believed that he could have done more, he'd never been the best child in Adette's eyes. Still, he knew what he said was truth. She had made her choices, and they had led to her death. "And as for Gideon, I know it hurt to have him leave without any notice, but believe me.. he didn't leave on account of you. He wanted to marry you, badly, that's why he asked father for permission. But Gerhardt, he kept putting it off.. and then when Gideon met Chrysanthe he found there wasn't as much difficulty in being with her, so he did."

Maverick sighed, wishing he'd known how she was feeling a long time ago. "You are wonderful, beautiful, and.. you know something else?" He craned his head forward to butt it lightly against her own. "You're going to be one hell of an aunt, because you're already a magnificent sister." A smile broke across his features as a twinkle returned to his eye. He hoped he was helping, even in some small way. He didn't his sister and Seracia's princess to be down in the dumps over things she couldn't control.
