He was trying his best not to get distracted by anything, especially not by the deaths that he learned about a while ago.

He had finally managed to finish looking into a file and was about to move on to the next. But right then, a guard knocked on the door of his study.

“Yes?” Caspian looked at the door and asked, “What is it?”

The guard gave a bow to the King and said, “Your Majesty, Lord Hamilton is here to see you.”

“Hamilton?” Caspian instantly wrinkled his nose and knitted his brows together. “Why is he here? Did he mention the purpose of his visit?”

The guard gave a soft bow and replied, “No, Your Majesty. He simply stated that he wanted to meet you.”

“Ugh! Why?” Caspian sighed because he now knew he wouldn’t be able to finish all the works that were still pending. He rubbed his face and then rested his on the chair. And he ordered in a very disinterested way, “Send him in.”

Shortly after, Hamilton walked inside the room with his head held high and his pride overflowing from him.

.....

He instantly threw his suitcase on the sofa and then made himself comfortable.

Caspian placed the quill down on the table and narrowed his eyes at his proud cousin. “Sure, invite yourself and make yourself comfortable. It’s not like I have a lot of things to do. I have all the time in the world, just like you.”

Hamilton gave a smirk and matched Caspian’s energy. “Oh, I am really glad that I am not disturbing you then. Else I would feel terrible for having stopped by.”

“Tell me, why are you here?” Caspian crossed his arms and rudely asked.

Hamilton crossed his legs and leaned back on the sofa. And he asked with the same rudeness, “Why? Can’t I even come and see my cousin as I please? I missed you. That’s why.”

Caspian suddenly burst into fake laughter. And he said in between his laughs, “Please cousin, we both know that it’s not true.”

Hamilton winked and said with a smile, “You’re right. I lied.”

Caspian’s expression suddenly turned serious. And he asked with a frown, “So tell me what you want before I kick you out. I am busy. I don’t have time to entertain you.”

“I came here to-”

Hamilton was interrupted when a guard announced from outside, “Her Majesty is here.”

“Let her in,” Caspian eagerly looked at the door and thought, ‘Just in time to save me from him.’

“Ah, just the person I wanted to see...” Hamilton mumbled to himself and looked at the door with a wide smile on his face.

And the moment Anastasia entered the room, he got up and gave a bow to the Queen. “Greetings, my Queen. I hope you are in good health.”

“Hamilton!” Anastasia smiled at him and replied, “Yes, I am good. And what about you?”

Anastasia went and stood in the middle of the room while Tilla quietly entered the room and went to set the tray at the King’s table.

“Oh, I am good, Your Majesty.” Hamilton glanced at Caspian and threw a satire, “I am glad that at least one of you cares about me.”

Anastasia gave a soft smile and said, “Oh, we both care about you as well as Aunt Edith. Please don’t say that.” She looked at her husband and asked, “Right, Caspian?”

Caspian monotonously replied, “Sure. Yes.”

She smiled at her husband and then turned to ask Hamilton, “Would you like some tea? I am going to...” She stole a glance at Caspian and said, “...make one for His Majesty.”

Caspian raised his brows in a reprimanding manner. ‘You promised me you wouldn’t make tea for anyone else!’ he was shouting in his head.

Anastasia understood what his gaze meant. So, she was thankful for Hamilton’s answer.

“You are going to make tea? The thing that humans drink? Ugh! No, thank you!” He then glanced at Caspian with a shocked expression on his face and asked, “And you drink it? The tea?”

“Yes. So what?” Caspian asked in an unbothered voice.

Hamilton kept on staring at Caspian with a shocked look on his face while Anastasia went and stood by Caspian’s side so that she could brew a cup of tea for her husband.

“What?” Caspian asked Hamilton with a frown.

Hamilton simply raised his hands in the air and shrugged. “I don’t even want to know why you are... drinking that thing.”

Caspian rolled his eyes and mumbled, “Then don’t ask.” He looked at his wife and playfully said to her, “She makes the best tea.”

Hamilton chuckled to himself and sat back down on the sofa. And he whispered so that only Caspian could hear him, “I heard that love is blind. But I had never seen it make the tongue lose its sense of taste. You sure you can stomach that tea?”

Caspian unsuspectingly covered his mouth with his palm and whispered back, “You sure you want to keep on blabbering? I wonder if you can grow another tongue if I cut it.”

Hamilton rolled his eyes at Caspian and then focused his attention on what Anastasia was doing.

And he appreciated the Queen, “I would never drink the tea you make but I think I can watch you brew the tea countless times. You are making it look like some exotic art.”

Anastasia looked at Hamilton and smiled brightly. “You flatter me, Hamilton. But you will have to come here every day at this same time if you want to watch me brew tea. I won’t do this elsewhere.”

Hamilton raised his brows at Caspian. He had a lot of questions in his mind. But he decided not to ask them and spare himself a headache.

“Are you done making the tea?” he asked when Anastasia handed over the cup to Caspian.

“Yes,” Anastasia gave a nod and then walked towards the sofa so that she could have a small chat with Hamilton before she left the two cousins alone.

Hamilton looked at Anastasia and then enthusiastically said, “You will never guess who I met during my recent trip.”

Anastasia had no clue. So she simply asked without much expectation, “Who did you meet?”

Hamilton gave a wide smile and excitedly said, “Alexander!”

“Alexander?” Anastasia widened her eyes upon hearing her dear brother’s name. And she eagerly asked, “You mean my brother?”

“Yes! Your brother!” Hamilton laughed and happily declared, “It was such a happy coincidence. We had a lovely chat and-”

“Wait!” Caspian looked at Hamilton and asked, “You met her brother?”

Hamilton frowned and asked, “How many times do I have to repeat myself? Yes, I met the Crown Prince. And he even invited me to his dorm. He also showed me around Lavinya.”

Caspian looked a little jealous that his cousin met Anastasia’s brother before he did. He wanted to ask all the details but he decided to quietly sip his tea.

“Tell me everything,” Anastasia turned to face Hamilton and got ready to hear more about her brother. “How did you stumble upon him? Did you two know someone in common?”
