Jack's and Natalie's Pov

Jack was one of the palace guards, assigned to protect Aiden, the son of Seraphina, the empress of Karlugos and Valerius the emperor of Karlugos. He had been with Aiden since he was born, and he had watched him grow up from a baby to a seven-year-old boy. He had also become his friend, and his confidant.And that's what he thought.

Aiden was a special child, not only because he was the heir to the empire, but also because he had a unique personality and a mysterious past. He was curious, intelligent, and adventurous, but he was also lonely, insecure, and troubled but Jack didn't know why. He had strange dreams and memories, that he could not explain. He had questions and doubts, that he could not share. He had secrets and fears, that he could not face.

In opposite of Jack who thought Aiden was only a strange boy ,Aiden thought thatJack was the only one who knew about Aiden's inner turmoil, and that Jack tried to help him as much as he could. He was not only a good guard, but also a therapist for him. He listened to him, when he needed to talk. He comforted him, when he needed to cry. He supported him, when he needed to grow.

Jack enjoyed spending time with Aiden, and he loved him like a brother. He also found him adorable, and he often had to restrain himself from hugging him and kissing him. Aiden had a cute baby way of speaking, that made Jack melt. He had a sweet smile, that made Jack smile. He had a satisfied face, that made Jack proud.

Jack was especially fond of Aiden's unclear pronunciation, that made him sound like a little angel. He liked how he said "mudder" instead of "mother", "Valerwus" instead of "Valerius", and "Jacky" instead of "Jack". He liked how he mixed up words and sentences, and how he made up his own expressions. He liked how he talked about everything on his mind, and how he nodded while he did.

Jack listened to Aiden attentively, and nodded along with him. He pretended to understand everything he said, even when he did not. He pretended to agree with everything he said, even when he did not. He pretended to be serious, even when he wanted to laugh. He did not want to hurt Aiden's feelings, or make him feel stupid. He wanted to make him feel happy, and smart.

Aiden did not know that Jack was pretending, and he appreciated his listening skills. He thought that Jack was the best guard, and the best friend. He trusted him, and he respected him. He liked him, and he loved him.

Aiden's days were monotonous in this life, but it was peaceful and nice. He had a loving mother, a caring tutor, and a few friends among the palace staff and guards. He enjoyed learning about history, literature, and magic, but he rarely had the chance to use his skills outside the palace walls.

However, things were not as simple as they seemed. The Karlugos Empire was a vast and powerful nation, but it also had many enemies and rivals. Seraphina, while managing the empire, became embroiled in a complex web of political challenges. She had to deal with the constant threats of war from the neighboring kingdoms, the rebellions of the oppressed minorities, the corruption of the nobles and officials, and the intrigues of the secret factions. She was a strong and wise ruler, but she also had many enemies who wanted to see her fall.

One of her enemies was Lord Ragnor, the head of the council of nobles, and her cousin. He had been plotting against her for years, and he had finally made his move. He had hired the assassins, and planted the bomb, hoping to kill Seraphina and the ambassadors, and start a war. He had also planned to escape, and rally his supporters, and claim the throne.

However, his plan was foiled by Aiden, who had discovered his elemental affinity, showcasing a unique magical prowess. He was able to manipulate not one, but three elements: fire,light andwater. He could create flames and waves with a flick of his wrist, and combine them to create steam and mist. He could also control the temperature and pressure of his spells, making them hotter or colder, stronger or weaker. He was a rare dual-elementalist, a prodigy among magicians.And that fact made Ragnar's supporters waver their trust towards him .

Jack had watched the whole scene behind the shadows while Aiden's still unaware of him, and he had felt a mix of emotions. He had felt relief, and joy,pride and a little sadness for what was to come. He had felt admiration, and awe, and wonder. He had felt love, and affection, and devotion. He specifically felt fear, and worry, and concern.

He had also feared for Aiden, and what his power would bring. He had worried about Aiden, and how his power would change him. He had been concerned about Aiden, and how his power would affect him.

Aiden's newfound abilities attracted both admiration and concern within the palace. Some people praised him and some people feared him. Some people envied him, and some people respected him. Some people wanted to befriend him and some people wanted to use him. Aiden had to deal with the attention and the expectations and find his own way. He had to balance his magic and his humanity, and his duty and his freedom. He had to face the challenges and the opportunities and the dangers and the wonders. He had to grow up and become who he was meant to be.

Untill then Jack decided that Jack had to stay by his side and support him. He had to watch over him, and guide him.

I can try to write a pov from Natalie's perspective based on your instructions. Here is what I came up with:

...

Natalie, the steadfast maid in charge, had been a silent witness to the myriad phases of Empress Seraphina's life. From the days when Seraphina was a carefree maiden before the war to her marriage with Valerius, Natalie had been a loyal confidante, a guardian of secrets, and a pillar of support.

I have been serving Seraphina since she was a maiden, before she went to the war and married Valerius. She was my lady, my friend, and my idol. I was devoted to her, and I would have given away my life for her if the situation ever arose.

I saw many things about Seraphina and her various sides. She was not perfect, but she was always striving to be better. I saw her as:

- An immature Seraphina, who was rebellious and adventurous, always sneaking out of the palace and getting into trouble.

- A crybaby Seraphina, who was sensitive and emotional, always crying over the smallest things and needing comfort.

- A diligent Seraphina, who was hardworking and ambitious, always studying and training to become a worthy warrior and leader.

- A love-stricken Seraphina, who was passionate and loyal, always longing for Valerius and fighting for his love.

- A love-sick Seraphina ,who was shy and insecure, always unable to express her emotions of love to Valerius and fearing his rejection.

- A happy Seraphina, who was radiant and joyful, always smiling and laughing with Valerius and their friends.

- A married Seraphina, who was graceful and elegant, always supporting and respecting Valerius as her husband and king.

- A Seraphina who wanted to have a child but was disappointed many times, who was hopeful and resilient, always praying and trying to conceive a heir for the throne.

- The most happiest Seraphina, who was ecstatic and grateful, always cherishing and protecting her baby Aiden as her miracle and blessing.

- A Seraphina who became a mother, a mature lady, and a fool for her baby Aiden, who was loving and nurturing, always caring and spoiling her son and teaching him everything she knew.

I loved Seraphina as much as I loved Aiden. He was like a nephew to me, and I watched him grow up with pride and affection. He inherited his mother's beauty, intelligence, courage, and kindness. He also inherited her flaws, such as her stubbornness, impulsiveness, and pride. I could sometimes see Seraphina inside Aiden's behavior, and it made me smile and cry at the same time.

I volunteered myself to be Aiden's maid in charge, because I wanted to be close to him and serve him as I served his mother. I wanted to be his confidante, his adviser, his friend.No matter how he was talented in Magic , I wanted to help him find his happiness, his love, his destiny. I wanted to make Seraphina proud of him, and of me.
