A/N- this is it. this is the last chapter to 'The Heat of Moment.' i would like to thank everyone who reviewed and stuck with the story this long. all your kind words were very helpful and inspiring. and for those of you who thought wolfram would have never runaway or saying it was out of his character to do something like that. i did put on the first chapter (well it was up there when i first wrote the story but i guess i did not put it back up when i did a rewrite of the chapter) that they would be out of character. But even with that little discrepancy, i hope you have enjoyed reading it as much as i have enjoyed writing it. and now, ladies and gentlemen, i present the final chapter to 'The Heat of the Moment.'

Chapter 40

Epilogue

After their return to Shin Makoku, Yuuri got Gunter and Lady Cecilie to start the preparations for his and Wolfram's wedding. He wanted it to be ready in two weeks but Wolfram wanted to give Yuu time to properly rest. Yuuri went to Earth to bring his parents, Shori along with him family back with him. He also brought Bob, Rodriguez and Sharon along as well. With Jennifer's help, everything was ready within a month's time. Jennifer and Celi wanted Wolfram to wear a wedding dress but the blonde refused. Both women were disappointed but as they took a good long look at the handsome blonde, they realized that his days of being cute in dresses have long since passed.

Finally, the day had arrived for Yuuri and Wolfram to get married. Delegates from both sides of the world, demons and humans, arrived the day before the wedding. There were so many until they had to use the Original King's palace to house all the guests.

Wolfram was standing before a full-length mirror in his room looking at himself. His mother was with him buzzing around him like a fly making sure not a hair was out of place. Wolfram stared at his reflection and smiled. When he married Ellis, he was dressed in his ambassador uniform. But this time he wore the suit he had picked out when he thought that he and Yuuri would get married. It had to be let out since he had gotten a little broad around the shoulders and he was taller than he was ten years ago. So, he just scraped his old suit and settled for getting another one. The suit was an off white with a golden braid attached to the upper left side of the long coat that reached to his knees. He racked his fingers through his neatly cut blonde hair. He smiled as he remembered how Dominique was sad when he had cut his hair. Wolfram was so nervous his hands were beginning to sweat. Suddenly there was a knock on his door and Gunter poked his head inside.

"It's almost time Wolfram," said the lavender hair man excitedly.

"We better go take our places," said Cecilie kissing her son on the cheek. "I'm so happy for you, my baby."

"Mother, I'm not a baby anymore," said Wolfram blushing.

"I know but you will always be my precious little baby boy." She kissed his forehead and then walked out.

Just then, Conrad and Gwendal walked into his room. "So, how are you doing?" asked Conrad smiling.

"I'm doing okay," Wolfram said wringing his hands nervously. "I'm a bit nervous. I can't believe how nervous I am. I didn't bat an eye when I married Ellis." He placed one hand over his heart. "But now, my hands are all sweaty, my stomach is churning and my heart feels as though it is about to burst through my chest."

"That's because Ellis was not your true love," said Gwendal matter of factly.

"You think . . . You think maybe we should put the wedding off." The blonde stared at his brothers nervously. "I mean a month isn't long enough to prepare everything properly. What if we forgotten something." Wolfram was beginning to panic. "What if I drop the ring. What if the boys trip and drop the rings. Oh Shinou, what if I forget my vows. I will look like an idiot. What if . . ." Then he clutched his churning stomach and began to double over as though he was in pain. "Oh Shinou, I don't feel too good." Suddenly Wolfram snapped his head up to glare at his brothers when they started laughing. "What's so funny?"

"Well, it seems like someone is getting cold feet," said Conrad chuckling. "You don't have to be nervous, Wolfram. This is what you have been dreaming of for a very long time, right?"

Wolfram took a deep breath and although he could still feel the butterflies fluttering around in his stomach, he began to calm down a bit and smiled up at his brothers. "Yes, it is."

"Then there is nothing to be nervous about," said Gwendal smiling. Then he placed a hand on his baby brother's shoulder. "Wolfram. Conrad and I want you to know that if you should ever need our help with any problems. You can always come to us."

"I know. Thank you, thank you both," said Wolfram hugging both his older brothers crying. Conrad didn't want to cry but it couldn't be helped. Gisela had just told him two weeks ago that he was pregnant with his third child. His hormones were acting up. Gwendal just grunted as he held his two younger brothers in his arms.

"Aaaawwww, come look Roland," said a young voice coming from the door. The three men turned to see Yuu and Roland standing in the doorway. "Perhaps we should get them each one of Zanders bottles." Both boys burst out laughing.

"Oh yeah. Then perhaps I should turn you over my knees, Mr. Funny man," said Wolfram. He picked up a handkerchief and wiped his tears away.

"All right." Yuu held his hands up in surrender while Roland continued to snicker. "We just came to get you because the flower girls are now having a flower fight since you are taking so long."

"We're coming," said Gwendal.

"Where are we going?" asked Wolfram. "I tried to get it out of just about everyone but no one would tell me where the wedding was to take place."

"Well, it's about time you see the spot Yuuri chose to get married," said Conrad smiling as they walked out of the room.

They led Wolfram out to the garden. "Are these flowers something new mother put in?"

"No, these were planted by His Majesty," said Gwendal. "This section of the garden he did for you. He went to Earth and brought back several different kinds of flowers. But I believe the most wonderful things he brought from Earth are the trees.

"Trees?" Wolfram frowned.

"Wait and see," said Conrad. He took out a silk blindfold.

"What's that for?" The blonde frowned at the silk cloth.

"It's Yuuri's idea," said Gwendal. "He wants to surprise you and I couldn't have agreed more." Tying the blindfold over Wolfram's eyes, they then led the blonde to the wedding location.

Once they arrived, Conrad removed the blindfold. Wolfram blinked and squinted his eyes as they were finally able to focus on the scene before him. He gasped in awe at the view that surrounded him.

"They are called Sakura trees," said Conrad. All around the large crowd that was gathered for the wedding were about thirty of the Sakura trees. There was a lake nestle quietly behind Ulrike as the blue water shimmered like diamonds in the sunlight. It was quite a breathtaking site. The air was filled with the sweet scent of the pink blossoms and the pink petals danced upon the wind falling like rain around everyone.

There was a commotion coming from across the large lake. As Wolfram turned his gaze away from the pink rain, his breath hitched in awe as he watched his beloved along with the Great Sage riding on the heads of two water dragons crossing the lake. Wolfram thought Yuuri was a god of breathtaking beauty as the dragons placed the two double blacks to stand before Ulrike. Then the dragons returned to the water from wince they came. Dressed in a black tuxedo, Yuuri smiled all so tenderly to his fiance as he stretched out a hand to him. Wolfram felt his breath catch in his throat as the pink petals fell like rain around the double black. To him, Yuuri looked as though he had stepped out of a dream.

"It's time little brother," said Gwendal.

"Here daddy," said Dominique placing a bouquet of roses in his hands.

"Was this your grandmothers' idea?"

Dominique just giggled as she and Rachel began to toss petals as they walked down the aisle. Gwendal and Conrad laughed. Wolfram just sighed. 'What the hell. It's just this one time.'

Yuuri felt his heart stop as Wolfram stood at the other end of the aisle as a flurry of pink cherry blossom petals made the blonde seemed as though he had stepped out of a painting. Beautiful kept running through Yuuri's head as he continued to stare at his fiance with all the love in his heart. With hand stretched out waiting for his love, Yuuri watched with bated breath, as the blonde seemed to float down the aisle to come to stand beside him. He took Wolfram's hand into his and kissed it.

"Your Majesties," started Ulrike as she bowed to Eric and all the other rulers from different countries. "Lords and Ladies, we of Shin Makoku welcome you to this joyous occasion. We are happy that you all are able to come and witness the joining of his Majesty Yuuri Shibuya to Lord Wolfram von Bielefeld Gilbit. Both His Majesty and Lord Wolfram wanted this to be a short ceremony. They have both written their own vows." She turned to Wolfram and smiled.

Wolfram turned to face Yuuri as he took his husband's other hand into his. "Yuuri when you first dropped into our lives, I have to say I was not really impressed with you. My opinion of you was that you were a wimp. I thought your ideas of peace between demons and humans would only remain a dream that would never happen. But like they say, first impressions aren't everything. I had come to realize this the more time I spent at your side, and on all the adventures we shared together. I began to see that in you, we might finally achieve the goal of peace. That's when I fell madly and hopelessly in love with you. My heart was always yours to have Yuuri and it always will be. You are my sun that lights the dark. You are my heart that beats louder than any drum. You are my joy and I vow that I will love you until the end of time."

Yuuri smiled lovingly at his blonde prince and kissed his hands again. "I was a fool. I let the beliefs of a world millions of miles away dictate to me what a relationship consists of. A real relationship is not defined as male loving a female. A true relationship has no boundaries. Love is love no matter if it is for a female or another male. When I met you Wolfram I was but a foolish child that did not know what love was. But now that I am older than I was those many years ago, I now know what real love is. I love you Wolfram. And I will continue to love you long after this world, this universe comes to an end."

"Now, His Majesty has a surprise for his prince," said Ulrike smiling at the couple.

"Well as you know, I'm not good with speeches," said Yuuri.

"I don't know," said Wolfram squeezing his hand. "I think what you just said was beautiful."

"Thank you, but I want you to know that I love you with all my heart and soul. I never ever want you to doubt my love for you ever again. So, I decided to sing a song to go along with my vows."

Suddenly several of Conrad's men rolled out the piano. Yuuri lead Wolfram over to the piano and they took a seat. "I didn't write this song. It was written by a singer named Billy Joel on Earth. It maybe his song but it's how I feel about you." He placed his hands on the keys and began to play.

"I didn't know you knew how to play," said Wolfram.

"Well, your mother taught me."

Everyone sat in silence and listened as Yuuri began to sing.

In every heart, there is a room

A sanctuary safe and strong

To heal the wounds from lover past

Until a new one comes along

I spoke to you in cautious tones

You answered me with no pretense

And still I feel I said too much

My silence is my self-defense

And every time I've held a rose

It seems I only felt the thorns

And so it goes, and so it goes

And so will you soon I suppose

But if my silence made you leave

Than that would be my worse mistake

So I will share this room with you

And you can have this heart to break

And this is why my eyes are closed

It's just as well for all I've seen

And so it goes, and so it goes

And you're the only one who knows

So I would choose to be with you

That's if the choice were mine to make

But you can make decisions too

And you can have this heart to break

And so it goes and so it goes

And you're the only one who knows

Yuuri leaned forward kissed Wolfram gently. As they pulled away, Yuu and Roland stepped forward each was holding a gold wedding band. Ulrike stepped forward and took the ring Yuu held and gave it to Yuuri. "Repeat after me, with this ring I pledge my heart, my love and body to you. I will honor you and protect you from any harm. And I vow to stand by your side for as long as I live."

"With this ring, I pledge my heart, my love and body to you. I will honor you and protect you from any harm. And I vow to stand by your side for as long as I live," repeat Yuuri slipping the ring on Wolfram s ring finger.

Then Ulrike took the ring that Roland had and gave it to Wolfram. "Repeat after me, with this ring I pledge my heart, my love and body to you. I will honor you and protect you from any harm. And I vow to stand by your side for as long as I live."

"With this ring, I pledge my heart, my love and body to you. I will honor you and protect you from any harm. And I vow to stand by your side for as long as I live," repeated Wolfram slipping the ring on Yuuri s ring finger.

Then Ulrike turned to the audience. "Your Majesties, lords and ladies, may I introduce to you His Majesty Yuuri Shibuya and his Prince Consort Wolfram Shibuya."

Everyone stood up clapping. Jennifer rushed up to Wolfram kissing her son-in-law. Cecilie crushed Yuuri into her bosom. Everyone got up to congratulate the royal couple.

The reception was amazing. Gunter had flowers and colorful ribbons everywhere. There was food upon food. Wine flowed like water. Everyone was happy. Not only was there a wedding to celebrate, they also celebrated the rejoining of families that were separated for eons.

As the celebrating continued, Yuuri and Wolfram decided to leave early. Yuuri had asked the stable boy to have Ao and Thunder saddled. Before they could mount their horses, they were caught by their respective families.

"Trying to sneak off, little brother," said Shori smirking.

Yuuri and Wolfram turned to see their families standing in the entrance to the stable. Both Jennifer and Cecilie ran to their children hugging them.

"Mother," said Wolfram rolling his eyes. "You act as though we are not coming back. We will only be gone a week."

"Would have been longer but somebody decided to wimp out on me," Yuuri smiled at his husband.

"Are you calling me a wimp?" Wolfram bristled with halfhearted anger.

"Of course not." Yuuri kissed his husband placating the angry blonde.

Everyone burst out laughing.

"So, where are you going?" asked Shori's wife, Ritsu.

"Yuuri had a cottage built for us in the countryside," said Wolfram. Then he walked up to his children. "Now, I want you two to behave yourself while you are with your uncles. Understand."

"We will daddy," said Dominique kissing him on the cheek.

"Of course, we will behave," said Yuu.

Wolfram turned narrowed eyes suspiciously on the boy. "And I better not hear anyone tell me you did something to scare your sister and cousin. Do I make myself clear?"

"Okay, jeez." Yuu rolled his eyes. "I'm not going to do anything."

"We should be going," said Yuuri. Wolfram kissed both his children and then hopped upon his horse. They wave good-bye to everyone and rode away.

When they arrived at the cottage, Yuuri lifted Wolfram into his arms and carried him across the threshold bridal style. Wolfram laughed as he stared at the rose petals covering the floor and the bed. "Has to be Gunter's doing," said the blonde.

"Or your mother," said Yuuri. He carried him over to the bed and laid him down.

"And what's that?" Wolfram pointed to the table on the left hand side. Yuuri reached over and picked up the note.

"From your beloved big brother. It's from Shori." Yuuri placed the note down and looked at what his brother had left. There was porcelain crock of melted chocolate, cherries with stems still attached and a can of whipped cream. "I will have to thank my beloved big brother when I go home for a visit." He dipped a finger into the warm chocolate and tasted it. "Mmmmm." He dipped his finger in it again and fed it to Wolfram.

The blonde wrapped his tongue around the chocolate covered digit and sucked it into his mouth savoring the sweet confection. Yuuri become hard as he watched his husband's mouth move up and down on his finger. Yuuri leaned forward and pressed his mouth hungrily against that of the blonde's. "You taste better than any sweets I know of."

He let his mouth trail down Wolfram's neck as he nibbled and sucked the long column of flesh. Wolfram groaned as he moved his head to give Yuuri better access to his neck. There was a little chocolate smeared onto Wolfram's lips. Yuuri licked his lips hungrily as a thought came to mind.

"I always wanted to do this and now I will get my chance."

"Do what?" asked Wolfram sitting up on his elbows.

Yuuri smiled wickedly as he quickly stripped Wolfram of all his clothes. Yuuri only removed his shirt for the time being. He stared down at his husband like a starving man. Not a mark marred his beautiful body. Yuuri picked up the whipped cream and sprayed it out on Wolfram's body. Wolfram shrieked as the cool cream made contact with his heated skin. Yuuri put some over Wolfram's pink nipples, then in his navel and finally he covered the blonde's groin completely in the creamy white fluff. Then he picked up the chocolate and poured it on top of the cream and then he topped it off with a few cherries.

"Mmmm, yummy, I've made my very own sundae," Yuuri said licking his lips. He picked up a cherry, dipped it into the chocolate and fed it to his husband. "Now, I'm going to enjoy my dessert." Yuuri leaned over Wolfram making sure his body did not come into contact with the whipped cream. First, he started with the nipples. He licked and sucked all the chocolate, whipped cream and cherry off until it was hard as a pebble. Wolfram moaned and squirmed beneath his husband's mouth as Yuuri started on the other. Once that nipple was cleaned and hard, he moved down to the navel. Yuuri lapped hungrily at the dimple in the center of Wolfram's stomach.

The blonde shrieked as ripples of pleasure vibrated through his stomach. Then he moved lower. Yuuri smirked as Wolfram was very hard. His cock was standing straight up as a cherry was sitting on top. Precum trickled from the slit in the head of his cock to mingle with the cream and chocolate. "A gift for me." Yuuri plucked the cherry from its perched and popped it in his mouth. Wolfram groaned as he watched his husband's mouth move. He so wanted to taste those sweet lips.

Suddenly Wolfram arched his back off the bed and screamed as his length was swallowed into the hot wet cavern of Yuuri's mouth. He clutched the sheets beneath him twisting them in his fists. Wolfram had to use every bit of will power to force himself not to thrust his aching cock deep into Yuuri's throat. He began gulping in deep breaths of air. He watched as Yuuri's head bobbed up and down.

Yuuri raised his head to stare into the lust filled eyes of his husband. Wolfram leaned forward to lick the excess cream from around Yuuri's mouth. "I love you, Yuuri."

"I love you as well, Wolfram." Yuuri quickly removed his pants and underwear. His erection throbbed as he stared down at the beautiful body beneath him. He picked up the small bowl of chocolate and poured some over his pulsing erection. Yuuri hissed as the warm chocolate felt amazing against his sensitive organ. Then he placed his chocolate-coated erection against Wolfram's tight puckered entrance and gently pushed forward. Wolfram groaned as Yuuri slowly slide all the way inside of him.

Yuuri moaned as the walls to Wolfram's inside felt like a vice clamping down on his erection. It took every ounce of his self-control not to thrust into that welcoming warmth like a wild animal. He took several deep breaths and waited for Wolfram to say he was ready. It didn't take long because the blonde began to impale himself onto Yuuri's throbbing erection. The double black released a sigh of relief as he pulled almost all the way out and thrust back in causing the blonde beneath him to moan.

Yuuri leaned forward pressing his mouth hungrily against those of his beloved. Then his lips moved down to Wolfram's long, smooth neck. He nibbled and sucked the flesh until a dark bruise appeared marking the blonde demon as his.

"Mine," hissed Yuuri snapping his hips forward. He placed one leg over his shoulder and Yuuri was positive that he had went even deeper into his husband.

Wolfram moaned out in bliss as Yuuri struck his prostate sending him into pure ecstasy. As he continued to thrust deep and hard into the writhing blonde beneath him, Yuuri lowered his head and began to sucked his husband's hard nipple.

Wolfram cried out when he felt a warm wet mouth close around one of his overly sensitive nipples. He clutched a handful of the sheet twisting them as Yuuri tugged, licked and sucked the bud until it was a pink pebble. Then he moved over to assault the other in the same way. Wolfram felt as though he would explode at any minute. Sweat glistened on his skin as he gulped in several breath of hot sex filled air.

He immediately snapped out of his euphoria when he felt Yuuri slip out of him. Wolfram was about to protest when Yuuri quickly turned him over onto his stomach. Grabbing him by the hips, he pulled Wolfram onto his hands and knees, and thrust forward hitting the blonde's prostate once again. Wolfram groaned as he thrust back onto the hard flesh ravaging him. He leaned forward onto his elbows and buried his face into his arms. Yuuri's thrusts were becoming more and more savage as the double black could feel himself coming close.

Wolfram whimpered as he felt the heat pool into the pit of his stomach and moved down to his throbbing neglected length that was aching for release. He brought his hand up and grabbed his erection. He needed to come and he needed to do it now. The pressure was just too much for the blonde demon to take any longer.

Wolfram began to stroke at his length but Yuuri pushed his hand away and wrapped his hand around his husband's cock. Yuuri stroked him in time with his savage thrusts. Wolfram could feel the blood coursing through the length of his aching cock. It had become too much for him to take. He was at the edge. One more thrust and Wolfram saw stars bursting before his eyes as he spewed his essence over Yuuri's hand and onto the sheet. Yuuri howled as he felt the walls of Wolfram's inside clamped around his length. He thrust into him two more times before Wolfram felt his husband stiffen above him and his seeds flowed into the other's sated body. Wolfram fell boneless against the bed as Yuuri collapsed next to him. The only sound that could be heard was their labored breathing. The blonde laid next to his beloved with lids half closed smiling.

"Wait, don't fall asleep yet," said Yuuri smiling. He hopped out of bed and went to the dresser. He opened the top drawer bringing out a brightly wrapped small square box. "This is my wedding present to you."

Wolfram sat up and took the box. "But, you already gave me a lovely gift."

"That was for everyone to see." He grinned wickedly at his husband. "This is just for my eyes only."

Wolfram quickly ripped off the paper and opened the box. He gasped in awe at the gold chain that had a small emerald on it. "It's pretty," said Wolfram lifting the chain out of the box and then frowned. "But, isn't it a bit too long?"

"Silly, this isn't meant to be worn around the neck." Yuuri took the chain and placed it around Wolfram's waist. The small emerald rested snuggly into the blonde's navel. "Beautiful." He leaned down and kissed the delectable navel of his husband.

Wolfram moaned as his skin was still sensitive from their recent lovemaking. "Okay, now I have another present for you."

"Yay, I love getting presents." Yuuri leaned over to Wolfram and whispered seductively in the blonde's ear. "Does this present have anything to do with you moaning and writhing beneath me?" He nipped the ear he whispered into.

"No," said Wolfram moaning, "but most likely that's how it will end." Wolfram got up and went into the other room. A minute later Wolfram returned with a neatly wrapped package. "It was your mother's idea to get this gift for you." He reached the package to Yuuri and sat down on the bed beside him.

"Well, I can't wait to see what idea my mother put into that pretty little head of yours." Yuuri opened the package and held up a pretty, yellow baby pajama with matching cap and booties. Yuuri frowned as he stared at the tiny outfit. "Why would you want to get me baby clothes?"

Wolfram arched a blonde brow and began to wonder if his husband was really that dense. After a few minutes of the double black not understanding what it meant. Wolfram sighed as he slapped Yuuri across the back of the head. "Dense as a rock.' "Wimp, that's not for you. It's for the baby."

"Baby? What baby?" Yuuri stared at the blonde puzzled.

"Oh Shinou, how dense can a man be," said Wolfram grabbing his husband by the hand and placing it on his stomach. "Our baby stupid. I. Am. Pregnant."

Yuuri's eyes widened in shock. Suddenly a smile spread across his face as he pounced on the blonde hugging him. He kissed Wolfram passionately as he pulled away to look into those smiling emerald orbs of his husband.

"When did you . . . Why was I . . . How long . . .?" The double black king was so excited he could not finish any of his sentences.

"I am a little over two months pregnant. I believe it happened when we were on Earth. I almost had a miscarriage that night I thought Yuu was dead but thanks to Gisela's hard work. She was able to save our baby. She had told me the news the day after we returned to Shin Makoku."

"Why did she wait?"

"She said she wanted to give me time to rest after our ordeal with Drakko and everything," said Wolfram. "That was why she ordered me to my bed and kept checking up on me even though I felt fine."

Yuuri pulled Wolfram into his arms and held him tightly. Yuuri remembered that night when Wolfram had those painful cramps. He was so scared. He didn't know what to do. He was never so glad that the healer arrived to take charge. It had taken Gisela just about the entire night to work on Wolfram. He was so glad that she was the head healer in Shin Makoku. "Well," he said smiling. "I think we have found the perfect person to be this child's godmother, don't you."

Wolfram nodded his head and smiled. "I can't think of anyone worthier."

"Who else knew about the pregnancy before you told me?"

"Just me, Gisela, mother and your mother."

Yuuri smiled as he kissed the top of the blonde's head. "Well, this time I have every intention of being there for this child. I missed all the firsts with Yuu but I will not miss a moment of anymore of our children's childhood. I promise." He kissed Wolfram tenderly on the lips.

"I love you Yuuri."

"I love you Wolfram." Then Yuuri curled up around his husband and pulled the covers over them. Then they fell into a comfortable sleep.

Seven and a half months later Wolfram gave birth to fraternal twin sons. The happy couple and the occupants of the castle only found out five months into Wolfram's pregnancy that the blonde was carrying twins. Wolfram was surrounded by his family and friends as they all gushed over the newest additions to the royal family. Greta sat at the foot of the bed holding the youngest of the twins. Dominique and Yuu stood around her staring into the bright green eyes of their baby brother. Cecilie was standing behind Dominique staring proudly at her grandchildren. The youngest twin, whom Yuuri named Ryuu, was smaller than his older twin but his lungs were powerful. The infant wailed for its mother. Wolfram took the boy into his arms and kissed him on top of his soft head. The child immediately quieted down when Wolfram placed the bottle in his mouth. Like Wolfram, the infant had bright blonde hair and sparkling emerald eyes that looked around at the blurry figures curiously. The elder twin whom Wolfram named Reginald was quiet. He also had soft blonde hair like Wolfram but there was a difference. Instead of emerald green eyes, the elder twin had bright sapphire colored eyes. Yuuri smiled down at the eldest twin in his arms, and to his surprise, the child smiled back at him. Yuuri wasn't sure but he would swear that his infant son could see him clearly. Maybe it was his imagination. Even Gisela told him that it would be days before the twins are able to see anything clearly.

Yuuri still wasn't sure about that. Murata made his way over to them, and Yuuri could see the boy's eyes tracking his friend's movements.

"May I Yuuri?" asked Murata smiling down at the infant.

"Uh, sure," said Yuuri placing Reginald into his friend's arm.

"Well, hello there Prince Reginald." He tickled the infant under his soft chin. The tiny pink lips turned up into a smile as he grabbed the finger and placed it in his mouth sucking it. "Did you know that Reginald means 'powerful ruler'?" He walked over to the window and opened it to show the infant the view of the town. Even from there, Murata could see as well as hear the joyous shouts of the people as they celebrate the birth of the twin princes. Then he whispered so only the infant could hear. "Welcome back to Shin Makoku, Shinou."

The infant stared up at the double black with knowing blue eyes and smiled brightly.
