Because you are a child, Gabriel. Do you want something to drink? Maybe a warm cup of tea -He pats a chair.-

He rolled his eyes before asking one of his servants to bring the tea. "It on't be long before they bring it. I hope."

Is there anything wrong, child?

A wife he hasn't introduced to his king.

Soon, he expects. He needs to make sure a loyal man has found a suitable wife

Duquesa de Frías He aknowledges her presence with a bow of his head.

"I can say the pleasure is mine, Duquesa." His hands take hers leaving a kiss on the skin at the back. "I have also hear about you, although I must say the reportns lie not only in your beauty but in your sweetness."

"I wanted to welcome you back to our land, mi señora"

"I'm glad to witness such devotion for our land. You will alwasy have a place among us"

"A flatterer is a liar, Ailbhe. And the king's words are always true" He said this time sounding a little more serious. "So please, allow me"

"I can't consider Gabriel a dissapointment, Duquesa. Your son has served me greatly in unique ways"

He couldn't supress a smile the moment he spotted her swinging. "You are welcome. May I steal you from your husband for a while?"

"Gabriel is the bearer of news. By doing that your son has served me greatly, Duquesa" His services had been vital for the kingdom survival in an Europe where everyone was jealous of their Empire.

Isabel should be less ambitious. Gabriel best match would be a Infanta, at most.

Agustín, what are you doing?

I meant all the nudity talk

Sure, child.

Older than me or my age. Sadly, you are younger
