Unwanted

Walking back toward his chamber Walter looked toward his guard, who always followed him. "Get Izzy, she will be needed" Nodding his head then turning around down the hallway the guard quickly disappeared from Walters sight. Still carrying the baby he went back to his private chamber, as he entered he put his son Asmo on his desk. Sitting down and opening one of his drawers he grabbed a document from his desk, quickly writing something down. As he was busy writing in his document, his door was knocked on. "Come in." Opening the door the same guard with an older lady walked inside the dark chamber.

They both walked inside and sat down at chairs near the desk."Your majesty, The former royal guard commander begs to know why you have implored me to come." "Izzy do you have a child" "No sir" "Did you ever desire to have one of your own?" "Once long ago" "Will you raise this child for me, nobody else wants it." Pointing toward the young Asmo with his pen, the king said in a relaxed tone. "I have never raised a child before, much less a prince sir" "Don't worry I won't blame you if you decide to quit" Looking at the child that was squirming on the table she thought for a few minutes, finally coming to a decision she looked up and stared at the king. "I will raise him, my only request is that I get to be recognized as his mother officially" "Perfect, I'll arrange for a room here for the two of you."

Standing up and picking the child up, she put him in her arms. "What is his name?" "Asmo, I named him after his grandfather" Turning around and walking out she held the young Asmo close to her chest, trying to keep the baby who was nude warm by hugging it close to her body. "This is going to be the hardest task in my life isn't it."
