"And what are you saying exactly then?" The King asked roughly. "That one of my head guards, a man who has been loyal to this family longer than you have been alive attacked you? That he put my guards, my guests, my daughter at risk? That is a serious accusation and one that you have no proof of. We don't just attack people here on a gut instinct! There needs to be undeniable evidence in order to take this seriously. And it is rather convenient that you would attack Nathaniel after he exposed the indecency occurring in my house! How can I take your word seriously if he exposed himself with something that you never released to us before and right after he angered you."
Alexandria's mother took a step forward, continuing on to stop her husband from speaking. "If you truly believe that this is the truth, then the matter will be investigated. But no further action will be taken until we have evidence. Especially as head guard, Nathaniel is in charge of many of the men who were protecting you that day. It is most likely that he heard the story from one of the survivors instead of being part of this conspiracy as you say. But, nonetheless, you are to keep your distance from Nathaniel. You may be our guest but we will not allow you to break our laws..." The Queen looked to her daughter for a moment before continuing. "Or our traditions. Punishment will be given if continue to do so. We will look the other way this time but do not test us."
The Queen then looked at Nathaniel. "While this matter is being investigated, you will be assigned to other duties and are to also keep your distance from Prince Dominic and Princess Alexandria." She looked to some of the guards who were in between Nathaniel and Dominic. "Escort Nathaniel to his room. He is dismissed for the rest of the day." Once Nathaniel and the other guards were gone, the Queen turned to one of her ladies in waiting and whispered, the lady bowed and hurried out of the room quickly.
"Release him." The King said once Nathaniel was long gone. Alexandria was then quick to shake off her father and head over to Dominic, wanting to calm him the best that she could. She hesitated slightly once she was at his side, knowing how furious Dominic was, but she pressed a hand onto his shoulder. "Please, calm down," Alexandria said softly. She then looked to the guards, who were still holding onto Dominic, hesitant to let him go. But Alexandria was quick to snap at them. "Release him! Are you disobeying the king's orders!" The guards were then quick to let go, but stayed close in case Dominic was going to snap.
