Soon king Alistair Crawford and Lia Mooney got married. Their wedding happened in the Crawfords palace. The ceremony was very untraditional, king Alistair and queen Lia exchanged their rings simply standing in the one of rooms in palace's dungeon.
Second Alistair's wedding was very quiet, but atmosphere was warm. Queen Antonia felt quiet good for her husband's second wedding, but one of the guests felt a little upset, but maybe she was just flooded with memories... Angelina secretly yearned for Alistair, but she doubted whether Alistair ever forgive her. Now she was just a guest and was invited only out of politeness and just because Antonia wanted it.
After the wedding queen Antonia slept alone, but she wasn't worried for that too much. Solitude was her friend. In addition, she was still Alistair's wife and was well aware, that she can lure the king to her bedroom whenever she desires.
Meanwhile, king Alistair and queen Lia enjoyed their honeymoon. They could kiss and flirt without stopping day and night.
No matter how strange it was, but queen Antonia accepted queen Lia very well, so king Alistair spent the mornings having breakfast together with his both wives.
- You know, Alistair, I like your second queen. I think you made a right choice, - once said Antonia.
- Thank you... I admit I was afraid, that you'll get angry, - Alistair smiled.
- It would be stupid to get angry, when I know, that it has to be... - chuckled Antonia looking at Alistair's eyes.

Life in palace was calm and harmonious. It seemed, that there was never otherwise. Queen Lia was a musician, so she often fiddled the violin in palace's garden, and the king painted.
Once King Alistair painted a man and a woman. He looked long into their faces on the canvas and the longer he looked at them, the more he felt, that he knew these people... Maybe it was the people, who raised him and his sister Ellen. Or maybe it was their real parents Edward and Pamela Crawfords, although couple looked like elder peasants in his painting. Alistair was still not interested in his family history, but he knew he must do it and decided in the nearest future to view the Crawfords family archive.
And Momo... Oh, Alistair loved very much his weird friend and it seems Momo loved king too. It allowed Alistair to do with itself everything he wished.
Don't forget Camille. She was also in dire need of attention. After returning from school, Camille constantly complained of teachers and asked questions, that should be answered by her parents, but she didn't have parents, although they probably were still alive. Alistair felt sorry for the girl, so he tried to help her in every possible way. He helped her with homework, even though she was very independent and tried not to ask anything from the royal family.
Meanwhile, Queen Lia very cared for little princess Lyla. Her focus on the baby aroused maternal feelings and to queen Antonia. Now they often spent a lot of time together in nursery room talking and taking care of the princess.
It's hard to say, what brought these two queens, but they really got along very nicely. Queen Lia was very cheerful and easy going, which was a severe lack of shy lonely Antonia, so they both complemented each other perfectly.
And one day the queen Lia announced the joyful news to the king.
- I'm expecting, my love, - she smiled happily.

- It's amazing, sweetheart, - Alistair embraced his wife. He kissed Lia's neck thinking, that maybe now he'll have a son...
Then they watched the stars a long time and talked about their baby.
