With Farron and Myrtle gone it was just me, Gwendolyn and Remiel. It was nothing to find some pig and butcher it, taking only about 10minutes from start to finish .When we returned to the camp sigh i questioned why we were doing this when we simple didn't need to, why couldn't the warmbloods do this on their own .It was so peculiar to watch the warmongering Gwendolyn turn into some sweet girl ,was this the extent of Farrons influence? Just as my processor neurons had that thought Gwen pulled me to the side
"Hey Remiel i have to talk with the queen make sure to cook the boar real good , this might take a while"
"HAHAHA of course don't you know I'm a master chef, i cant wait till my sweet myrtle takes a chomp the expression on her face will be enough"
That guy was alright, what was this she wanted to talk to me , why away from Remiel i had no clue but it couldn't be anything that bad. That being said i let her take me to her location
"So what did you want to say Gwendolyn or as Farron calls you Gwen"
"Ok Look Ezra I've been putting in good words for you but you personality is why farron wont even talk to you"
This bitch degrading me right off the bat, what did this little girl know about men I've been around for more then 10 times her lifespan and always will, what nerve.
Shaking her head she said " Look at your reaction... its pathetic every little thing makes you think lesser of someone you really think you'll find a loving partner?
"He doesn't want me because he doesn't know what he's missing is all, once he's old enough he'll understand the error of his ways and he'll beg for me, but who knows by that time ill would've have find someone better"
SMACK!
Grabbing me she slapped me across the face. I'm going to kill this bitch this means war
"LISTEN TO ME YOU HAVE A SHIT PERSONALITY!!! don't you understand that farron just doesn't give a fuck about your kingdom, or your status?!? He's told you time and time again your a hard headed dumb bitch .Dont you understand that human's are different from us and if you want him to love you unlike your previous husband then you are going to have to change"
"I'm perfect I'm the queen of "
SMACK SMACK
She slapped me twice this time ,This insufferable brattt!!!
"You're the queen without a partner, without someone who treats you well... The only reason i keep telling farron to take your hopeless ass in is because i pity you"
She was out of line damnit , what did she mean she pitied me ?
"You pity me?"
"You're who i used to be that's why... someone who thought to highly of themselves, someone afraid to be hurt. Look farron is actually an amazing person so far .When all you know is yourself i understand why you cant see past yourself .Since I've been dating him he's shown me nothing but love even to the point where its a little annoying , but i understand that its not him that's the problem its me. We grew up in a culture were any actions but violence is deemed as a weakness but he showed me thats not true. Love is simply caring for someone you think worthy of your time .Aren't you old as fuck how do you not know this?" she said with pleading eyes
...So farron wasn't just a push over? That was news to me
"So why does he let you boss him around? Why does he need you to do everything "
"He doesn't, no one does, he just wants me to be around with him and he's not ashamed of me .When bill was laughing at Farron and left to go to the brothel which brothel do you think he went too.?"
"How would i know?" I said still angry but now more curious than anything
"To a catgirl one , in other words a beastkin, in other other words to a creature naturally made to love"
"So what" i said in disbelief that fucker i would have a word with him
"we misjudged men... then don't care about power like we do, all they really want is someone beside them... and we misjudged ourselves power wont make us as happy as we think it will"
This... was true... all these years i've been on this on this throne just wanting to have a happy life. The money, fame and absolute authority did get me off in some ways but i always felt like i was liking something was that something love?
"Ok and lets say i were to listen to your rant , what could i do to win him over?"
"Finally you've come to your sense's girl trust me not all guys are bad. The funny part is you really don't have to do anything at all just listen to him sometimes and show him as much affection as he show you."
"Was it really that simple, was that your life changing advice" i said not fully believing her words
"It really is take my case for example i tried to kill him when we first met, Remiel in his infinite wisdom forced me to be around him, some stuff happened then boom were watching the sunrise together. I can say that that 20minutes of watching the sun with him were some of the best moments in my life. it sure beats constantly seeing victims torn in two and hearing them beg for mercy. There is something beyond just fulfilling our own needs"
Mhh was she on to something... i mean she was the only other zyanite with a decent relationship other then Remiel the only common factor was the warm bloods.
"Ok what can i do to win him over?"
"didn't i already tell you? Oh sometimes rub on him trust me ... TRUST ME .Also stop with your dumb ass schemes no one really respects you for them."
This was all hard to digest but I'm somewhere in a forest and just hunted a vermin. i already threw away all my pride maybe she was right, i had to a tleast see how this goes .If this didn't work ill make sure to make her suffer
"Stop being do damn conniving your face says it all, look when he returns try to be soft and sweet and build something you could see yourself with in the future. Unless that its you want to stay with bill forever and by staying with bill i mean he runs off to his beastkin lover's why you're alone as usual"
DAMN IT why did she always bring that up, but it couldn't hurt to take her advice
"ok"
"ok?" she said looking a little confused
"ok , ill listen" i said in resignation
Walking out of the forest we returned back to camp .Remiel was busy away cooking that pork. Somewhere and somehow he found another hog.
He turned around and said "ahaha did you finally get through to her? i know she wouldn't listen to me but how about you"
"i hope so" said Gwendolyn going to skin and blood that animal
That idiotic son of mine, this is probably what he wanted from the very beginning, was it simply fate that warmblooded species and zyanites were to inermingel? I heard a rustle from behind the tree and lo and behold Farron and Myrtle appeared with their materials.
Looking at me then looking at Gwen, Farron took a deep breath and said
"Hey Gwen do you think i-"
"yes, i told you a while back ,we already know just yes"
Has he really been considering me this whole time but my personality has been holding him back.
"Hey queen come with me " i said walking over to grab her hand
"Finally " said Remiel "trust me bro you'll be happier in the end"
Myrtle ended up assaulting my son but i couldn't blame her he had plenty mistresses
We walked for a few minutes and he stopped .Did he think that the rest of them couldn't hear the whole conversation? maybe myrtle couldn't but us androids had excellent hearing they were totally ease dropping
ok so I've been doing some thinking I'm ok with you being around me ,but only under the exception that we are equals. Forget about your queen status, forget about how you rule this kingdom , if this is going to work we're going to need to build a bond"
I wanted to test what Gwen said up to what Farron would say so i played ignorant
"How do you expect me to do that "
"remove your pride and i will do the same. we can start over. Truth be told I'm not 100% sold on you , even now in your actions i can tell you don't have any regard for anyone but yourself. I don't know what type of relationships that you're used to but this is going to be different is either all love or nothing , i have no interest in wasting time
Lets progress this she said to be affectionate, lets try that
ok I'm willing to say that i can be pushy ... so let say we did start over? what exactly would be different"
" wanting to change is the first start its really simple we look out for each others best interest ,and we respect and support each other, we don't always have to get along but we have to try to"
Don't tell me it was exactly as the brat mentioned earlier, have i been going about dating wrong my whole life?

"and if i don't?" i said to test him
"then i wont and over with" he said sounding upset
maybe I've been wrong this whole time , I'm willing to accept that in order to move forward, he couldn't be worse then partners in the past male or female.
"I ...see. Im willing to try that"
Good enough he muttered under his breath
"i never got your real name, I'm Farron and you are?"
"Ezra"
Without any warning he grabbed my hand and we walked back, was he demanding i do something or was this some type of romantic gesture .I can see why Gwen went crazy whenever she was touchesd by him. Its like his body was a mix of soft and hard pieces in contrast to my all cold, hard body. It felt nice honestly.
"are you going to keep holding my hand?" i said afraid he might let go
"Yeah its called holding hands, want me to stop?"
"No!... its just Bill never did this"
He was just a sweet heart wasn't he, i might have been wrong
"Bill?"
"You know him as the king " i said with disdain. but could i blame bill either i wasnt great of a machine myself
"Ahh" he said not wanting to say more
We returned to this not so bad camp and heard my son
"Farron my man we've been waiting on ya, you took your first step towards manhood .We thought you guys might stay the night if you know what I'm saying" Remiel said nudging him
Gwen ran over and reassured Farron, she had turned into such a happy women, i envied her, if you cant beat em join i suppose .Somehow Remiel had Gotten some Liquid plutonium which i had to admit as a treat even for someone like me. Farron andMyrtle were eating the poor pig and us driods had some Plutonium. Gwen was wasted out of her mind , not that i was much better this was the good stuff.
Remiel left with his date to go mate and so did farron and Gwen i think. No they were just star gazing , i had to stop jumping to such conclusions i wanted to change, if Gwen could so could i. I found it funny how in a strange twist of fate the girl that i was always insulting i was starting to look up to.
Her head on his chest the moment looked intimate so i didn't want to disturb them. The old me would've had no problem but i couldn't after all the good will they had shown me.
"Hey Ezra come on over here , we all know you aren't shy"
"but you said i need to show respect"
"i also said we needed to support each other that means me supporting you, now get over here"
I smiled inside, all he really wanted was to love, i couldn't find any fault with that. Gwen said earlier to rub on him so lets try that she's been right this whole time.
running over and jumping on him i could see him wince a little
"warm us up!" i said trying my best not to sound drunk
"now its a real love party" said Gwen who seemed to be enjoying us be together what a weirdo, but a weirdo i appreciated to my core
"Hey Ferron is it alright if i ask you a question"
"Yeah sure"
why are you so big on connection, you know I've been alive thousands of years and been in hundreds of marriages none of my past partners have cared as much."
"When my family was killed i died a lot of thinking. We have ourselves and most likely can survive alone but. I realized that doesn't mean much. I would rather we love each other while were alive. You guys seem to think that living thousand of years make you immortal but... all things die "
I suppose i never thought of it like that, i assumed that i was immortal but then i remembered Beatrice and jennet. They probably thought the same thing too before they were put out of commission. We're Zyanites naturally flawed, i had to think more on that later, right now fun time.
"i see, your a bit of a charming guy for real huh" i said about to reward him. I made sure to massage him with every part of my body at time like this i was glad i wasn't made for battle. Then i turned around and gave him a big ol kiss i wanted him to get excited and it worked.
"OH i wonder what this is" i said mischievously of course i knew what it was it affected all men
Me, him and Gwen all got to work for about 25minutes yes i counted and he seemed to be tired so we let him be, eventually his stamina will raise and we will be able to get to much more fun things then kissing.
"ooh look a shooting star , lets make a wish" said Gwen
She had to know shooting stars were just hydrogen and helium but why not humor the moment . I Wished.. that i could find love with the two of them.
"so what did you guys wish for?"
"Secret" i said didn't she know that if we told each other it wouldn't come true
still i wonder what Farron wished for
"How about you Farron" i said
"Secret"
and with that he went straight to sleep, guess he was more tired from the Chosen powers then he let on. So we let him sleep and gently removed ourselves he was having some sort of dream. In a instant he turned from someone who hated me into a softy, a person's capacity to forgive was unreasonable but i couldn't say i didn't like it.
"So ehh ehh how do you feel. see its not so bad" said gwen
"Indeed " i said
Before we could really even start talking Remiel came from wherever he was
" so girls how are you feeling" he said
Ugh why did he always he a dumb grin on his face .Luckily Gwendolyn was thinking exactly the same thing
"Why are you smiling dipshit" She said
"OH i don't know, maybe its because i told you so .For so long you guys thought i was crazy but now your here with me enjoying all life has to offer. Feels like a job well done" He said smiling harder
"Haah, true"
"Anyway what are we going to do now we have 38 more hours of darkness do we just stand here?"
you know i never noticed how dull it was being alone , you can distract yourself for so long but then what.
"Yeah guess we can just chill"
"That was fine with me" Said Gwen
That wasn't so bad
We were all sitting log close enough to keep the warmies in sight just incase a beast tried to eat them in their sleep, and far enough to not disturb them. Remiel choose the spot , now that i'm more paying attention he's just as considerate as Farron. Gwen was the first one to start the conversation
"sooo about the planetary trip and stuff sorry we couldn't be the ruler for that planet im sure we'll end up finding someone"
Had Remiel asked those two to rule tha decrepit planet? It was no surprise that they rejected him now that i know them more. Even if he accepted that plane was truly harsh typhoons every 5 seconds mixed in with tsunamis and other natural disasters, not to mention the 400 hour nights and 50 hour days .The only the that planet had going for it was it's wealth of natural resources and that it harbored life.
"Ahhh haha don't worry about it , i know its going to be Farron"
"How is that " i asked
"i want to know too we told you no already"
"Is my intuition ever wrong? i wouldn't have done it in the first place if i thought i had no chance , in fact im positive he will change his mind"
"Yea yea just because you were right about one thing doesn't mean you know it all" Said Gwen defiantly
Gwen was right,mhh was he getting cocky or did he know something that we didn't. Its hard to say my son was ever wrong , it is a strange skillset of his .Why not make it interesting
"Why don't you two make a bet?"
"Why?" Gwen turned to me
"Well you both seem confident so you know why not raise the stakes"
"I'm down " said Remiel
"ME TOO"! she blurted out not wanted to be shown up
"Ok the deal is if he accepts within the month one of us has to do something extra special for our partner. I wont do or say anything else" He said
Did he think that rose the stakes, that was practically a slap on the wrist. I should've made the bet for them, Very lame if i do say so myself. Or maybe was he sparing he because he knew he already won mhhh this is still interesting i suppose.
"pfttt HAHA what a stupid challenge , i accept "Gwen said with the utmost confidence
"Sure sure" Remiel replied looking unaffected
A few hours had passed since then and we we're just making small talk.I heard something approaching us and i prepared for combat ,so did the rest of the squad .Only our worries were baseless it was Farron and Myrtle
mhhh mhhh Farron cleared his throat "So about the trip... Remiel i accept becoming ruler"
Myrtle put her hands around him for extra dramatic effect.
I was dumbfounded she lost before she even had a chance. She looked at my son with the most mixed expression i saw her have in a long time .Remiel was truly some type of god level mastermind, ill make sure to not get on his bad side.
"Farron... i hate you"
"what did i do!"
"Still undefeated" was all Remiel said
