aren’t the worst. My sons would spot one with their eyes closed – they’d never fall for it. No, I was weary of them choosing one of those who are horrified by our opulence, because they’d kid themselves into thinking that they’d be loved despite it. Truth is, it’s irrelevant whether they hate or adore our wealth: it matters to them. One look and I could tell you really didn’t care. You’d be happy here. You’d be happy in a cozy two bedroom flat. That’s what every bloodthirsty future grandma in the room is envying me.”
    That was true: Alice didn’t really give a fuck. A house was a house. She’d lived in some nice ones and crappy ones; she preferred the nice ones, but given enough time, anywhere could become home.
    “My mother’s family is wealthy; they also are a band of merry assholes. She was casted off because she didn’t choose the right guy, according to them. Their house is as gorgeous as yours, but cold and austere. Freshman year of college, I lived in a dump near campus because I’d enrolled too late for a dorm – and it was nice. So yeah, I guess I don’t really care.” 
    “Exactly; which is why as long as he deserves it, you’d stay right next to Colt, even if Colburn Global goes to stones and ashes.”
    Alice was quite dumbfounded, shocked to actually like being approved of, now she understood it – it was better than finding herself liked and trusted because of what she looked like.
    Harry Colburn made an appearance and his wife hurried to his side, finally leaving Alice alone; she glanced up, looking for Colt, but he’d disappeared from the bar where he’d been drinking, with a group including his brothers.
    “Have you seen Colt?” she asked Kallen, and the guy shook his head, but there was something in his eyes – something close to panic.
    What the hell?
    “He’ll be at the back,” Kane replied, and Kallen seemed furious.
    The brothers were still staying at each other by the time she’d turned around and walked towards the French windows.
     
    It was only when she made it out of the room that she understood it all.
     
    Oh yes, he was at the back alright; and not alone.
    There was a tall, lithe, model gorgeous woman with him, her arms around his neck and her lips, firmly planted on his.
    Of course there was.
     
    End of Part One.

    Chapter 1:
     
     
    If there was one thing Dane loathed more than yielding, it was having to yield to a bunch of meddlesome advisors; however – and much to his dismay – they were right.
He needed a wife – or more specifically, an heir – and as the bride he’d chosen for himself wasn’t an option, it was past time to settle on an alternative.
“How about Titania?”
He inwardly cringed, but thankfully Alessandro was already on the case, firmly dismissing the shameless flirt who had attempted to sink her claws into him since he’d hit puberty.
She’d only managed twice.
“No royalty: the continent is too unstable. If we go to war, each kingdom will have to choose a side. It wouldn’t bode well to enthrone the child of a potential enemy.”
He nodded his thanks, relieved.
“So, we’re looking amongst our nobles then?”
That, Dane firmly opposed to.
Alenians loved their royal family, who historically had been known for their unusual approach to ruling: they explained why the taxes were raised, divulged what the spies discovered, and answered every trivial question any subject might ask with the simple, straightforward, hard truth.
The noble families had a reputation for doing the exact opposite, hence why, every hundred years or so, the people had taken to slaughtering them in their sleep.
