The male smiled wide, shaking his head in astonishment. "I had no idea he knew someone this beautiful." His eyes roved over her with open admiration before reaching for her hand and bringing it to his lips wit "You, my lady, look absolutely mesmerizing," he murmured. "Who is it that graces our door on this blessed morning?"

Her lips curled slightly. "I am Princess Emeriel, and I am looking for Lord Herod."

His grip slackened, dropping her hand so fast as if it had grown spikes. "Our grand king's female?

That princess?"

Emeriel laughed softly. "It is I."

Just then, a familiar laughter rang from within the house. "Emeriel...!"

Her heart soared as she spotted Lord Herod. She barely registered the wide grin on his face before she hurried past the stranger, closing the short distance and throwing herself into his arms.

His laughter was deeply rich as he lifted her effortlessly, twirling her once before setting her down.

Tears burned behind Emeriel's eyes from pure joy, and she bent into a graceful curtsy, despite the dizziness. "My lord, it is a pleasure to be in your presence again."

"You look absolutely stunning!"

"And you do not look so bad yourself," she grinned.

And he truly did not. It was as if the past two years had never touched him.

"Oh, you flatter me, Little One. I—"

"Hold on a moment." His look-

alike stepped between them, scrutinizing her in a manner that made Emeriel wonder if she had sprouted horns.

Then, he turned to Lord Herod, expression flat. “You really are going to get yourself killed, Father.”

Emeriel blinked. "Wait. Father?"

Lord Herod's laughter rumbled once more, warm and amused. "Meet my son, Dale.”

Then, turning to the younger male, he gestured toward her. "Dale, meet Princess Emeriel- my dear friend."

His son's eyes lingered on her for a moment before he straightened and bent into a formal, full- bellied bow. "Your Majesty."

Emeriel shifted, awkward. "You need not bow that much."

Lord Herod smacked the back of Dale's head. "Quit it. You are making my friend uncomfortable."

"No, it is alright," Emeriel assured them with a small smile. “It is just... wow," her head shook in disbelief. "I remember you telling me you had a son, but
