    are the parents of my fiancé, Ezekiel and Beatrice Stanner.” Damn! That had been a mouthful! I thought my tongue was going to be stunned. Robert extended his hand to the couple. I could see the awe in their faces. “I am not anyone special, I am just the person they stuck with running the empire.” “Your m-m-majesty…” they both stammered. Asta then shocked them to the core as she pulled them into a hug. “You are going to have to tell us all about how much trouble Lizell was to raise. We need good blackmail material for later.” After the hugs and greetings we headed back to the limo. I held back and guided Robert to walk with me. “Why did you tell them I am in line for the throne?” Robert looked at me like I was crazy. “You do know that if the imperial family dies, then the highest ranking grand duke takes the throne, right?” “Yes, but…” “But nothing. You are the Grand Duke of the Eastmarch. As such you are in line for the throne. I formalized the succession order right after giving you the title. I did not want the Privy Council to decide. They would probably put that ass Galvor on the throne.” “Yes, but…” “How many butts do you have? It is all set up, and I am not going to change it.

I had actually managed to come up with a reason the emperor could not ignore. I felt like crowing. “I will have to have a team of lawyers look into it,” were Roberts last words on the subject, for now. We joined the others in the limo and the entire motorcade pulled out. The drive to the palace was fun. The discomfort of Lizell’s parents seemed to evaporate as they got to know the royal family. Most people in the empire thought the royal family was a group of distant people. Normal people did not talk to them or deal with them. Lizell’s parents came to understand Robert’s family was trapped. They were held apart for their safety. Once back at the palace, we showed them the apartment they would be using while they stayed with us. They were flabbergasted. The living room of the apartment was larger than their house. The world they came from was crowded. It was a hub world. A lot of the goods that moved throughout the galaxy went through its ports. Later in the night, Robert and his family retired to give us some time alone. We had moved to our apartment to talk and just visit. Then I moved to my desk to give Lizell ...
