章 84: Chapter 84: Prince Seda, Part 2

He'd loved this man for years. They'd started friends, grown as close as brothers… and then one voyage had changed that, made them into something that only grew stronger as time passed. By the time they'd returned from their travels abroad, utterly convinced they were now wise, experienced men of the world, it had seemed impossible that they would do anything but marry and rule their kingdom together.

Binhadi still wasn't certain if he'd been a complete and utter fool all those years, or if Seda really had changed in the face of the secret revealed to them.

He was no longer in love with Seda, too much had happened to restore what had been damaged and lost, but some small part of him would always ache for what might have been. So many times he'd wished their damned fathers had just kept their secret to themselves and left him and Seda happily ignorant.
