Chapter 5

It was a beautiful morning and Apollo was in the best of moods. He woke before everyone else and make his way to the kitchen. He hasn't cooked since he got here and he kind of miss it.

He put an apron on, wash his hands and start on breakfast. The maids step out when they see him.

He put on some music on Graham's phone and have a jolly time making food.

Graham woke up and jump off the bed when he feel it empty. He pull on his slippers and hurry from the room.

"Have you seen Apollo?"

"He's in the kitchen Your Majesty."

What is he doing in a kitchen? Graham wondered.

He head down the stairs and he could smell freshly made food.

"The little brat is cooking,"he muttered.

He heard the music and decided not to intrude so he stood by the door and watched. He watch him dance and use the spatula as a microphone.

"Something is missing. Oh I know! Strawberries!" He ran to the fridge and came up with a bowl of strawberries. "Now it's perfect. So Graham, Edward and Ma. Orange juice will do. Now to get the table set."

"The maids can so that." Apollo turn around with the cutest look of shock ever.

"Graham! How long have you been standing there."

"Long enough. You got some moves."

"So embarrassing."

"Don't be. It's cute. Make you even cuter."

He step into the kitchen and grab his hand pulling Apollo to his chest. "I can't wait to marry you."

"I see you two everywhere." Edward enter the kitchen looking jealous as hell. "Maybe mother is right. I need to find my mate or I will remain single forever."

"We're going to take a shower."

"TMI brother." Graham lift Apollo into his arms and walk out of the kitchen. "Keep it PG!"

"We're not really going to shower are we?"

"Of course we are."

"Together?"

"Definitely."

"Without clothes?"

"We don't want to get them wet now do we?"

Apollo was speechless.

They got to their room and Graham enter the bathroom and place Apollo on the counter. He pull his shirt over his head and Apollo stare. Graham step out of his shorts and Apollo cover his eyes.

"Strip."

"No."

"OK." Graham step into the shower and Apollo felt conflicted. He never shower with anyone before. "The water is nice and warm. Would want you to get left out."

"OK you win!" He jump off the counter and get out of his pj's. "Don't look."

Graham open the glass door and Apollo stepped in. He wrap his arms around Graham's waist.

Graham get the shampoo and start washing Apollo's hair. "You need a hair cut."

"I quite like it."

Graham stick him under the shower and wash the soap from his hair. He tried not to drown him because his tiny form is being swallowed by the water.

The duo finish their shower and step out. Graham wrap Apollo in a large fuzzy towel. "I'm cold."

Graham bring him out and adjust the heater. "Shorts or pants?"

"Definitely shorts and make that with a t-shirt and sneakers."

Graham stick his head out of the closet to look at him.

"What? It's comfortable. Unlike you mister I prefer comfortable over style."

Graham bring out his clothes and they get dress. "So what's the plan for today?"

"More planning. But you can take the time to explore the library more. I got some new books shipped in last night. Romance of course."

"You know me so well."

"It's my job to know you. Now we better get to breakfast before Edward gobble down everything."

Apollo held Graham's hand and they leave the room together.

"Finally." Edward said.

Queen Alejandra knock him over the head.

"Behave. Apollo dear I heard you make breakfast."

"Yes. I hope you like it."

"It smells so good." They take their seat and Graham take that as a sign to start eating. "Oh my God this omelet is everything. What did you put in it?"

"Just cheese."

"Oh my. He's right. Graham hurry and marry him."

Apollo blushed.

"So when are you two gonna give me grandbabies because this one," she point to Edward. "He will remain single forever and I'm not getting any younger."

"We're taking it slow mother."

"No maybe it's would give Edward something to do. Babysitting."

They look at Apollo.

"What?"

"He's adorable."

"We'll go into town later," Graham said.

"Human town?"

"Some of our people are there. But we're going to the witches. They will use one drop of our blood to make a new life."

"It's the same way as if a woman make the baby," Edward piped in. "The baby will have both of your DNA."

"How long does it take."

"A few minutes."

"So we will come home with a baby."

"Yes."

"That's awesome! We can have ten or twenty or even a hundred."

"We don't need an army love."

"You're no fun."

"Three and no more."

"OK."

"You two make me sick."

"Go get a life then."

Edward roll his eyes and reach for another bread roll.

After breakfast Apollo get a basket of snacks and make his way to the library. He plan on being there the entire day because the library is the best place to pass the time.

Graham call a meeting with the elders to discuss the new discussion he have to come to term with.

"So you're saying you want to get rid of the Red Moon pack? Why?"

"It's not a pack. It's a slave land. I don't condone that so I'm getting rid of it. Either you all agree or not."

"What is it that we're hearing about the book of life coming out."

Graham lean back in his seat. "There will be some changes."

"We didn't agree on that."

"And that's where we have a problem. You may be the elders but I call you just to be polite. I am king and I will always be king. I will do what's best for my people despite what you all think. Don't make me take your status away. You're threading deep waters so be careful of your next step."
