On with the story

In the world of magic, there is a Continent other than the land of Ishgar

It is called Alakasita, the western continent and within the continent stood one empire, the Alvarez empire

A man was sitting in a throne room while leaning his face to his hand in a thinking pose while listening to a light blue hair man with glasses who was reading a letter that had some royalty like stamps on it

"and they wish for a peace meeting in the next month" the glassed man said while adjusting the glasses with his hands

The man sitting at the throne sighed as he cracks one eye open to look at the glassed man as he closes back the eye

"was that all they want, Invel?" the man asked the light blue hair who nodded while folding the letter

"good" the man said as he yawns and then looks at the floor while his eyes were threatening to close from lack of sleep as it can be seen from the black eye bags under the man's eyes

"agree to the whole thing" he said as he waves his hand in a lazy motion

"why did I ever sign up for this?" the man whined as he leans back to the throne as he had a tired face

"Emperor Spriggan is on leave and won't be back till next month, please bear it till then" Invel said to him as he folds his hands behind his back

The throne man then sighs again while slouching back on the throne room

"where's my lazy Nephew when you need him?" the man asked to Invel while looking at the ceiling

"he is currently at Ishgar with Lady Mavis for the holidays" Invel replied to the man as he suddenly sat up and looks at Invel with wide eyes

"HOW COME HE GETS THE HOLIDAYS!?" The man shouted at Invel

Invel grabbed his glasses and pulls out a handkerchief as he cleans some spit on the glasses from the outburst

"August-sama had demanded to take a leave of absence from his duty as he had requested the Emperor beforehand" Invel said to him as he puts his glasses on "you were the most logical person to fulfil the throne during Emperor Spriggan's absence, seeing that you are his little brother. Are you not?"

The man on the throne started pouting like a kid as he huffs while crossing his arms

"Natsu-sama?" Invel asked

The man sitting in the throne is none other than the younger brother of Zeref Dragneel. Etherious Natsu Dragneel, AKA E.N.D.

"stop calling me that, Invel" Natsu whined like a kid as he was puffing his cheeks "it makes me sound like I'm an old man"

"but you are over a hundred years old, are you not?" Invel said as Natsu dropped his head to the hurting fact

"I'm 419 and still 10 years younger than my brother!" Natsu retorted to Invel who simply shrugs his shoulder

"that's still the age of an old man" Invel simply said as an imaginary stone hits Natsu's head hard

Natsu then recomposes himself as he stands up and scratches his back

"just make sure to tell me when we get a notice on what time, do they want the negotiation meeting -yawn-," Natsu said as he scratches the back of his waist "I'm going to sleep"

Natsu waved his hand to Invel who bowed and went on his duty

Natsu was walking in the hallway to his room to get some sleep seeming that all of the royal duty his brother used to handle were all pushed to him

"when he gets back, I ain't never taking his spot again" Natsu said as he remembers the amount of paper work he had to sign to run his brother's kingdom

He then reaches a big door as he reached the handle and opens it

Inside the room was a queen sized already messed up bed that had some of the blankets already on the floor and some clothes on the chair and the floor as it can be seen that this room hasn't been cleaned for a while

"I'll get the servants to clean this up tomorrow" Natsu said as he strips off his boots and gauntlet and puts them onto a nearby table as he then walks to the bathroom and washes his face then brushes his teeth and walk towards the bed

Natsu sat on the bed that had a lump in the blankets that was moving a little

He then started stripping of his pants and shirt as he was down to his boxers

Natsu then felt two hands snaking around his waist as they run up and down on his abs

"how is it going with Erza?" Natsu asked as a scarlet hair woman wearing a red night dress, comes out of the blanket and embraces Natsu's back while resting her head on Natsu's shoulder

"going out with that Tatoo boy for their anniversary" the woman replied as she snuggles to Natsu's warmth

She then pulls the mand down to the bed and laid her head on his chest

"why can't you take the role for the throne?" Natsu whined as he holds the woman's waist

The woman giggled to Natsu as she looks up to him

"I'm not the one Emperor Spriggan asked to take his spot while he leaves, am I?" she asked playfully as Natsu's face scorns to the stinking truth

"I hate him sometimes" Natsu said as he turns to hold the woman's figure to his chest

The woman chuckled and snuggles deeper to Natsu's arms as she was greeted with comforting warmth

"all the paper work, the political stuff and the whole negotiation with Ishgar, haaa!" Natsu muttered out while whining as he felt he had enough of the whole royalty thing "can't even sleep comfortably at all!"

The woman smiles to Natsu as she got out of the embrace and hugs Natsu to her chest to calm him down

After a few minutes of whining from Natsu, he was now happily laying his head into a man's dream pillow as he snuggles deeper to the woman's chest

"I just want it to be like the old days" Natsu said in a muffled voice as he hugs the woman's waist closer but gently

The woman then started caressing his head while running down her fingers down his hair in a circular motion to a certain part of Natsu's scalp that made the man shivers in delight a bit before relaxing

"I'm so lucky to have you as my wife!" Natsu said in a proud voice as he opens his eyes to look at the woman "thank you for marrying me, Irene!"

he then snuggles back to her chest as he felt at home in it

Irene Belserion, the Scarlet Despair and the wife to Etherious Natsu Dragneel, smiled as she continues soothing her childish husband with her gentle strokes of affection like a mother to a child

"and thank you for rescuing me back then, Natsu" Irene said as she crosses her legs with Natsu's as she pulls him closer

Natsu hummed while in her chest as he was smiling happily in it

Irene sighed with a smile as she caresses Natsu's head

"what a big baby" she said while continuing to pat his head in a gentle motherly way as she sometimes strokes his head

Natsu reaches to her slightly bulging stomach as he rubbed circle onto it

"I hope we get a boy" Natsu said as he holds Irene's waist in a protective matter

"maybe we'll gets a girl" Irene suggested as she smiles to his affectionate actions

"whether if it's a boy or a girl, all that matters is that we will have a healthy child" Natsu said with a soft smile

"good night" Natsu told Irene as he tried to go to sleep

Irene smiled as she gives a kiss to Natsu's forehead

"good night, my little dragon" Irene whispered in a soothing voice before closing her eyes and let Natsu hear her heartbeat Lullaby

After a few minutes both of them were now asleep with light snores filling the room

Stars in the night sky sparkled in the night with the full moon accompanying them

Suddenly a shooting star came as another appeared before there was no more

That's a wrap!

Bye bye
