Alexander waited for Francis in his room but the whole night the male didn't return. He was sure that it was his mother's doing. For some reason, she seems not to want the two of them to talk.
He went over to Olivia's room to see her. In all the things that had happened and everything that he had to go through with his drama queen of a mother, he had completely forgotten that it was his wife's birthday. He took with him a gift he thought that she might like.
"Announcing the arrival of the prince," the guard announced.
The prince walked into the room. "Where is she?" he asked not seeing her inside the room.
"In the bath your highness," she replied with her head bowed.
Alexander stepped into her bathroom, Olivia was soaking in the tub filled with blue petals. The maids were washing her. He moved close and signaled for all of them to leave. With the two of them left in the room he got his hand in the water and poured it on her shoulder.
