Chapter 39 An Audience

• Daniel
• I shut my laptop with a frown as my mother and stare back at me with looks on their faces that I'm having trouble deciphering. When I was called into their audience, I was sure it was about my father naming the next king, not the stupid media. I hate the media. They're damn bloodsucking vultures and will write about anything. The earlier articles made me smile, the one about Annie having a baby bump made me laugh, the last one made me want to hit something. Sadly, I can't do that with my parents sitting directly in front of me.
• It's been a few days since the wedding. Annie is currently out spending the day with her family. They're set to leave tomorrow. I wanted to go with her, but alas, I have things to attend to.
