Her Unwanted Mate On The Throne

Chapter 207

Chapter 207 A long time coming

The two brothers stared at each other for a long moment before William squeezed Daniel’s shoulder and dropped his hand. “I hope you find a place that makes you happy. I’ll always be here if you decide to return. You will always have a place in the military as top general. Daniel nodded and stepped back away from William. He glanced at Doris and offered a small smile. “I wish you luck as well, little one. You’ll get your card when I settle. Don’t expect any sweets as well.” Doris stood and placed her hand on her stomach, Daniel instantly glanced down. “Don’t forget to send one for our baby.” “Baby…” Daniel’s eyes widened. For a moment, she saw a glimpse of the old Daniel as he gripped his head and bounced on his feet. “What do you mean baby! Your baby?”

Doris laughed a little as he stepped up to feel her stomach. There wasn’t much yet for him to feel, but she knew there would be soon. “I couldn’t wait to tell you. I hope one day you will want to meet them.”

Daniel’s gaze finally met her own, and it was so much softer than she expected. “Of course I will. I wouldn’t miss that for anything.” He dropped his hands. “I hope you consider naming it after me.” He winked. Doris laughed. “We’ll have to think about that, but thank you for the suggestion.” William stood back with his hands in his pockets again. He watched them with a faraway expression and she could only wonder what was spinning through his mind. Daniel pulled her in for a tight hug, she squeezed him as hard as she could. “I will miss you, Doris. Thank you for being a friend to me.” “I’ll miss you too.” Doris whispered. “I’m always here as your friend, you know that.” When he pulled away from her, he spared one last long look at William before he nodded. “Goodbye, William. For now.” He clapped him on the shoulder harshly. “Don’t mess it up with this one. She’s the only good thing in your life.”

“I wouldn’t dream of it.” William said sincerely. “Goodbye, Daniel.”

Doris stepped up to William’s side and took his hand. They watched as Daniel left without looking back once. A flash of his grin from when he first met her entered her mind. He told her he was a simple guard just because he wanted to be her friend. Now he was walking out of her life with only a hint of a promise that he might one day return. William watched the door for a long, long moment. Doris stood next to him and leaned her head against his shoulder to remind him that she was there. He didn’t have to do anything, he could stand there all day and she would stay with him.

“I need you to come with me.” William said suddenly. “There’s something I have to do.”

“Okay, of course.”
