Chapter forty eight: This is not a song for the broken hearted.
Jamie smiled and pulled his hand until he crouched over to her height.
"Oh, Alex! Are you a chicken?" Jamie asked him in a singing voice.
"I am king over the largest hemisphere in Derkal, woman! I am not a chicken!"
"Prove it, his Highness. Show me Derkal as a commoner and not as the great King. You might even learn a thing or two"
Jamie stared at the king in front of her and she knew she might be pushing her luck by making Alexander dress up as a pauper for a day. But she had come to realize from her time in the forest that there were two ways to view a kingdom, one from the eyes of a regular citizen and secondly, high up from the castle. And more often than usual the regular citizens were right.
"Can I at least provide my own disguise, Janessa?"
"Why? I picked this pauper clothes especially for you, Milord"
Alexander looked at her. What scheme was she concocting now? What were the ugly looking pants and shirt doing in her secret compartment?
"Janessa, why do you have a pauper clothing that is the king's size?"
"Why not? I always dreamt of kidnapping you and taking back to Namura to face your punishment for kidnapping me. The disguise was a way to go"
Jamie thought it was obvious but it turned out the king needed explanation to something she had been planning since the day she came to the West.
"If the Queen is choosing the clothes I will wear, I think its fair I return that favor, don't you think?" Alexander said with a mischievous smile. He kissed her cheek and left.
Alexander walked to Rosemund's chambers. He knocked and waited patiently to be asked inside. The princess was getting tutored on politics by the famous scholar, Anton.
Alexander found it inappropriate that the young princess had allowed a man into her room. And they were alone.
Alexander stared at the young scholar who was more than willing to excuse himself from the king's deadly stare. But before he left the crown princess's chamber, Alexander stopped him to give his piece of mind.
"Anton?"
"Your highness" the scholar stopped and faced the King.
"Do you enjoy having a head, Anton?" Alexander asked him.
"Yes, your highness. I am quite fond of my head" Anton answered sincerely. He wondered whether King Alexander was going to order for his execution.
Alexander smiled instead.
"I imagine you do. How about we keep your head intact and in return you tutor the crown princess in the library? You would agree her chamber is a tad inappropriate, don't you think Anton?"
"Of course your highness, the library sounds like a better choice. I shall take my leave now" Anton bowed to both of them "Your Highness. Her Royal Highness"
Both sibling watched as the scholar hurried away.
As soon as he was gone Rosemund turned to look at her brother.
"We weren't doing anything wrong, Xander?"
"I know. But your chamber is a private space and therefore, I forbid any other gender apart from yours from entering" Alexander knew he had to make the decree or his sister would never learn. He had raised her and he was responsible for her.
"Does that include you, his Highness?" Rosemund asked clearly unhappy about her brother's orders.
"Rose. It's for your own good. Now, do you want to sulk or do you want to help pick a pauper clothes for the eastern princess?"
Rosemund was intrigued. She moved closer to him.
"Are you going to make your wife dress like a corn field maid, brother?"
"No? She is making me dress like one!" Alexander revealed without thinking.
"I changed my mind about Jamie. Maybe I like her, after all. No one has ever made you do anything, Xander!"
"Are you going to help me pick out an awful dress or not, Rose?"
"If I say yes, can I tag along?"
"Sure. But I should warn you, you'll have to play dress up too, Rosemund"
"Yes! I will start looking for awful dresses! I can't wait to act the part of a pantry maid!"
King Alexander was sure of it now. The whole royal family had gone mad and it was Janessa's fault.

Sir Judd stared lazily at his King as he told him of his plan.
"Do you understand, Judd?" King Alexander asked him.
"No. I do not understand why I have to wear itching farmer's clothes to protect the greatest king in Derkal, who should I add will be wearing a peasant clothes in his own kingdom!" Judd finally had enough. It was an insane idea.
"Judd, you don't have to come with me. I am capable of taking care of my family" Alexander told his lead knight who he was just realizing might be his only friend.
Judd stood up and bowed to him. He tried to depart from the king's presence when Alexander spoke.
"Judd, where are you going?"
"I have to find some God damn farmer's clothes, his Highness. I better not get a rash!"
Alexander laughed. He was actually having fun. It made him pause. He was having fun!
Great! Janessa came into his life and suddenly, he was the king that asked his lead knight to dress up like a farmer, the crown princess wants to parade in Aradale in a pantry maid's clothing and he was going as a bloody commoner!
If Janessa was going to turn him into something that had fun (Alexander wanted to throw up) then he was going to take pleasure from his little fiery wife as much as he can.
Alexander was going to start by making her undress and subsequently, dress her up in a farmer wife's clothes. Nothing was going to stop him.
Jamie was behind the wooden barriers made to ensure privacy when undressing. She had asked for Rachael's help with her morning bathe.
Rachael was picking out the suitable dress for the Queen when King Alexander entered and pointed her towards the door.
"Rachael, can you pass the ointment on the table to me, I need a shoulder rub"
Alexander smiled and picked up the ointment.
Jamie stretched out her hand for Rachael to hand over the ointment but instead she was greeted by a man pulling back the barrier to stare at her naked body.
"Alexander! What are you doing?" Jamie yelled as she tried to cover both her breasts. She turned to face the wall.
Alexander's voice was different. He was so close to her now.
"I am taking what's mine, Monisha"
