You wake up, once again finding yourself in Miles' bed. You sit up and find the young man beside you, still sleeping peacefully.
The relationship between you was rather unconventional. When you were both around eighteen, you'd fallen in love. But you, as the prince and next in line, couldn't be seen with a man, especially not in the 30's. So you carried out your relationship in secret.
A while after the beginning of your relationship your unknowing mother, the queen, began urging you more and more to start a family. "You're the prince, for heaven's sake! It's about time you start a family to follow in our path." She'd say, over and over again.
In the pressure of your mother and the panic of your secret risking being revealed, you gave in. You married the first girl the queen approved of, and eventually started a family with her.
But you wouldn't give up on Miles. You had gotten him a job as a servant at the palace. Considering his families riches he really didn't need it, but it was the best way to stay close to you.
During the days he'd sneak into your bedroom while your wife was out with your child, and during the nights you'd sneak off to his home to spend the nights with him.
Seeing you with another woman was heartbreaking to Miles, but he never admitted it. He knew your love for him was real, and he wouldn't let her get between you.
Miles starts to stir beside you, stretching before he opens his eyes. "Good morning, love.." He whispers.
