I hadn't like how Jacob was so stubbornly loyal to the queen, but I also didn't like how he was suddenly keeping quiet because his boyfriend - the prince - had decided to do something that probably would go against her.
But that was a problem for another time. Right now, I had to focus on Kirux crying in my arms and on getting the queen to do something different, even though I wasn't quite sure what kind of response I was looking for from her.
The prince, at least, had the intelligence to look worried when he saw how quiet and obedient Jacob had become. But he didn't say anything; he just started heading towards the door, his expression switching from worried to troubled as he started to head down the steps with Jacob in tow.
I followed him down with Kirux; Kirux had stopped hugging me, but he was tightly holding onto my hand with one hand while the other wiped his tear-filled eyes.
We reached the bottom of the stairs.
Adrian stopped at its base, only moving aside when he saw that Kirux and I needed some space to slip by.
"Hi, mom," the prince said.
