Maverick noticed that Kenzo tagged along with Butler Reinheart. He also noticed that Butler Reinheart was always there to hold Vanessa's hand every time she went down the stairs and did whatnot. He only shrugged and brushed it off his head. He knew that Butler Reinheart was always there for his mom. He saw him back to his grandparent's mansion as one of the knights to protect his mother and he never left her side. He's surprised that he was so loyal to stay with her.
"Clear diamonds are perfect for the wedding or does Stacey prefer pearls?" She asked as she went to the drawer to show the perfect necklace and tiara for the wedding. "I always checked the wedding gown, so I think this is perfect."
"I think Stacey would love it."
"That's beautiful," Maverick said. "I shouldn't see what she should wear to our wedding." He chuckled but took the box. "Well, I'll deliver it back after the wedding is gone."
"No. It's hers. I designed it especially for your wedding, my dear."
Maverick flushed and quickly hugged his mom.
"Thanks, mom!"
"And for the Duchess." Vanessa grinned and took out the aquamarine and gave it to him.
"Thank you, auntie." Kenzo sighed and admired it.
"Wedding is next week, so make sure that the security won't pass any harmful objects. Well, except for my escort here."
Maverick stared at Butler Reinheart for a while.
Then, Kenzo looked from Maverick to Armin and back to him.
"Alright." Maverick shrugged.
"Thank you again, Auntie. I'll go and ride on the horses with my wife. You guys go and talk about security measures." Then, he left Maverick puzzled.
"What's with that ass?" He mumbled and turned back. "I'm going back to my baby too. Wait up!"
He left the two and followed Kenzo who was grinning.
"Hey, stop it, Duke Kenzo!"
"What?" Kenzo shrugged.
"Why are you grinning?" Maverick asked as he took the paper bag from the table and put the jewelry box inside it. He gave one to Kenzo to cover up the jewels that they are pretending to steal.
"Nothing." He chuckled. Then, the two went to the elevator as Maverick punched the floor to the ground floor.
"Seriously," Maverick frowned at him.
"Well, does your mom know that Butler Reinheart is in love with her? Or they probably loved each other." He shrugged and grinned at Maverick. "Are you going to have a step-father?"
"That's impossible." Maverick frowned. "But I don't mind. As long as my mom is loved and safe. I am fine with anyone. Just not my bastard biological father."
"Huh," Kenzo shrugged. "At least you still have your mom and dad. Too bad that your dad sold you off to our killer."
Maverick was in deep thought from what Kenzo said.
Caleb watched as the girls had fun while he's currently cleaning out the shit of the horse from his shoes. They plan on having a picnic near the lake as they wait for the food that the house was preparing for them. That's where they are going to have their lunch all together. The castle was protective enough that no paparazzi could enter.
"Love," Kaisley came while laughing. She wiped his sweats from his forehead. "Are you done?"
"Almost, this won't take long." He chuckled.
"Hey, you should start practicing the horse, Cal!" Kenzo called out.
The old men started laughing at whatever Kenzo said. It had a different meaning when it came from Kenzo's mouth.
"You ass! I am not into horses."
Kaisley giggled and helped him clean up. He changed his shoes since it's wet and Kaisley was caring like always.
"Do my feet smell?" he asked as he started tying up the laces.
"Not at all," Kaisley said and stood beside him.
"That's because I have a caring wife." He grinned at her as the two flirted while typing the lace of the boots. It took that long as Kenzo and Maverick started complaining.
"Hey, we should leave those two," Maverick said and lifted his wife who was busy filming.
"Yeah, we should. They forget that we are here and now busy with flirting." Kenzo agreed.
"Edgar, let's race to the lake." Prince Philip said.
"Grandpa! You'll get hurt!" Kenzo quickly scolded them. "No racing!"
"Why not?" King Edgar asked.
Somehow, Victoria enjoys it as the two old men are bickering with their grandson.
"If you fall, it'll be the end! Do you understand?" Kenzo continues scolding them. "You might not be able to see your grandchildren if something bad happened to both of them!"
The two old men looked at each other.
"Well, how about we have another game rather than racing with horses?" Victoria smiled as the two old men got charmed by her.
"What do you suggest, Duchess?"
Victoria thought for a while.
"What's a safe game that won't hurt the two of them?"
"Uh, video games?" Kenzo shrugged.
"Boring." The two old men said at the same time that made Victoria giggled.
"Archery?" Maverick asked that made all of them stop and stared at him.
"You are good at archery, right?" Stacey asked Mave with those shining eyes.
Vanessa turned to Butler Reinheart as he nodded and left.
"Do you know how to use an arrow?" Victoria asked her husband who nodded.
"Let's go with archery and tag?" Maverick suggested. "As for these old men, how about tea houses?" He joked.
"I'll go to the tea house." Stacey raised her hand as Maverick quickly put her hand down.
"How about the roundhouse or blackjack, my dear?" Edgar asked Stacey who nodded her head vigorously.
"I'll gamble on all of Mave's things!"
Maverick never thought that she would say such things.
"Even his underwear?" Prince Philip asked, which made Stacey smirked.
"I'm sorry. I can't gamble on that."
"Too bad. I was planning to take it to the museum." King Edgar said. "I had seen on lots of social media that if you left something in the museum, they would even put it on a glass to display. We can try that starting with Maverick's underwear."
"Your majesty!" Maverick exclaimed. "Not my underwear!"
"To think about it, I recently bought comfortable boxer shorts for you," Stacey said. "I should buy something glamorous with pearl beads or anything shiny. Right?" She smirked. "Then, I'll put it in my collections."
"Why are you obsessed with my underwear?" Maverick flushed and even his ears were red.
"That's because you once had a wreck of underwear," Stacey mumbled as she covered her mouth and laughed.
"What? What did you say, dear?" Prince Philip asked as Maverick quickly covered Stacey's mouth.
Caleb approached them, curious on why Maverick was covering Stacey's mouth and he seemed to be threatening his fiancée.
"Hey, what's with that?" Caleb frowned at Maverick.
"She's revealing my secret. It was only for us!" Maverick told him that made Caleb confused.
Stacey pushed Maverick's hand and kept laughing, almost rolling on the grass. The two old men don't know what it was but they were surely laughing hard like Stacey. Somehow, Stacey's laugh can make everyone laugh.
The maids came and set up everything in the golf cart. They climbed up to their horses and went to the lake. For a walk, it was fifteen minutes walk but with a horse and golf cart, it would be easy to reach.
Caleb watched her play archery as Kenzo taught Victoria who wanted to learn it so much. Maverick was flexing his archery skills in front of his fiancée and at that time, Caleb was very much happy to see Stacey well and happy around Maverick. There's a thought that lingered on him after he saw her hurt after she got kidnapped. He thought that she might not be able to recover and with Maverick around, she recovered too fast.
"Okay, stretch that darling," Mave said softly as Stacey lifted the arrow a little to hit the target, but it didn't even reach the target. "Not bad, darling."
"Woah! You slay it, Duchess!" Kenzo said as they checked on the target. Somehow, Victoria shot it near the middle. "That's my baby." He kissed her and snuggled at her back.
"Okay. Now, step away. I want to do it again."
Kenzo raised his hand as his Duchess became fierce as she eagerly shot after another. She looked sexy with that expression and determination.
"Careful not to hurt yourself," Kenzo mumbled.
At that time, Caleb and Kaisley didn't know how to use it. But Maverick started teaching Caleb. It was one way that all of the royals should learn. Since Caleb is part of the family, he will try every fun thing since archery is fun to them.
Maverick turned her head to Butler Reinheart who was under the tree as he served her hot tea. He saw how she smiled sweetly to Reinheart as he read her lips.
"Thank you, dear." That's what he read from her lips that made his eyes widen.
Were they really in a relationship? He wanted to know if they were dating. But since it's been years, they might be together for a long time now.
"Would you like anything else, my love?" Armin asked Vanessa and he read it. He looked away and looked at his fiancée who was busy trying to hit the target.
Somehow, Mave feels uneasy about their picnic. He found out that the thing that Kenzo was teasing him about turned out to be true.. It looked right though he had never seen his mother smile liked that to his biological father.
