He would soon turn 27. It was a good time for him to embrace fatherhood. His cousins who were a few years younger now already had several children, either from their legal wives and/or their mistresses.
Hmm .. he had to see the royal physician and discuss what to do to ensure that Emmelyn would get pregnant soon and keep her pregnancy healthy.
They finished dinner in a relaxed manner. Emmelyn felt full because her stomach was filled with all her favorite dishes.
"I'm full," Emmelyn said finally. She ate really a lot today. With her left hand, she resisted when Mars tried to feed her more meat.
