February 2, 1954.

My Dear Nate,

I’m sorry to hear that things aren’t going well in London. We wish that you were here with us every day, but we understand why you had to stay. It’s one of the many reasons why I love and respect you. Gabriel isn’t walking yet but he’s crawling and getting into things like crazy. He’s good, he’s settling in better than I had hoped. He really struggled the first few nights. He misses you. We all do. I wish that we could be there to help you, I know that Cash wishes he could help you.

Oh no. I’m sorry to hear that...is she alright? I’m assuming that he’s let you see her if you are looking for words of comfort. I wish that I could help more. I’m sure that part of her fear is being in the hands of your uncle...but i think just being there always helped me. And making sure that she knows that you care (since you clearly do) is always a good start. I’m sorry that I can’t be more help with this. If I were there, I could try to talk to her and make her realize what having children is like. It’s the most wonderful experience of my life. Gabriel is my everything, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. You could try that with her? I’m relieved to hear that she’s alright. It sounds like you care about this woman.

Love,

Dahlia

P.S. Cash says thank you, he keeps complaining about American whiskey. Apparently it’s different. Who knew.

Birthday Coronation

Nate had snuck off early in the morning, he had ditched his guards despite how unsafe it might be, he pulled a hat over his head and his fishing pole, he had crossed the Thames and just wanted a normal morning. He was feeling a bit lost, Cash had gone back to America and he was now on his own. IT was bittersweet that today was his last day being just Nate. He knew he might not ever be able to come back to this spot again to fish at least after this. Sighing Nate cast his lure back out.

He looked to his left when he heard footsteps approach him. “You know I should have suspected that you would find me. Let me guess Oliver gave away my little fishing spot?” He questioned Celia giving her a small smile. A lot was weighing on his mind, he had enjoyed the solace while it lasted.

Dahlia,

Since I debuted my daughter to the world I figured I’d show off my little girl to you. That and I thought if you were here you would have smacked me for not sharing her with you...sorry I haven’t written sooner. We kind of wanted to just enjoy her after everything that happened Celia and I were still healing, hell we still are. So I enclosed a picture of my little family. I have to say I am very proud of my girls. Celia...she’s been the light of my life lately, she’s fantastic with Cora while I am busy being King yet still finds the time to make us a family dinner nearly every night. I think I met wonder woman, don’t worry you are still superwoman. But anyways...sorry for ranting, I get carried away when I speak about them. I do hope that you and Cash can find your way back here for the wedding. Celia’s redone the entire palace and I will make sure all of you are set up comfortably. London is really starting to change, all of Britain is, well at least it is now that Cyrus is buried somewhere far off in the hills to never be found again.

I miss you Dahlia, all of our late night games, having my friend around. Cash too, but I just sent him back to you a few weeks ago, so I’ve seen enough of him. I hope you and Gabriel are alright, Mason too. Give everyone my regards.

- Nate.

Defective Typewriter

Dahlia hadn’t been feeling herself lately, she had been feeling kind of bloated, moody, and she wasn’t feeling up to sex the way that she usually was. She couldn’t tell if Cash could tell that she was feeling like crap lately, but when she woke up that morning, she had been violently sick, and that’s when it hit her. She was late. She had known deep down that something was off, but the fact that she didn’t want to be pregnant had made her blind to just how late her period was. But now that she was throwing up...she knew that she had to go and take a test. She had to at least find out if she was having a baby, so her and Cash could discuss...options. Whatever they may be in this screwed up world.

She heard the front door open, and she looked up, a gun in her hand. She was planning on going to steal a test alone, but when she saw Nate standing there, she frowned, knowing that he wouldn’t let her go out on her own. He would never ‘betray’ Cash that way. “Hey,” she greeted, like it was every day that he walked in on her and the gun Cash gave her.

WHO: Nate Kingsley. Drug Ring Leader. Max Irons fc. PLOT: they’re rivals but he’s attracted to them

nate’s eyes were glued to them and for a man who normally wasn’t so obvious, he sure was letting his eyes take in every inch of their body. he wasn’t one to let anything go, not when it was something he wanted and so he was patient, at least until he could further approach them without someone questioning it. he walked toward them, his hand grabbing their arm and pulling them toward him. his eyes met theirs, “when are you going to choose the right side?”

WHO: Nate Kingsley. Drug Ring Leader. Max Irons fc. PLOT: here

there was only one person who had a key to his place and so the moment he heard the it enter the deadbolt, he knew she was here. an evident smile took over his face and he got up from his couch to greet her as he often did. this was practically the only place it was safe for them to hang out because of her dad but it didn’t matter. he was happy to have her in his life at all. “finally,” he breathed out, teasingly and wrapped his arms around her waist once the door was both closed and locked behind them. “i’ve missed you. i feel like i was waiting forever for you to show.”

Dear Dahlia,

It’s been a few months... I don’t even know where to start right now. It’s been a week, I haven’t slept hardly. I...I did something. My family was at risk so I did something that started the war over here. They went after Celia and our baby..I heard the heartbeat Dahlia, I couldn’t let them hurt the baby. So I did something, I did something very bad. I don’t feel remorse for it though, is that a bad thing? Does that make me a bad man? I wanted Spencer dead, I wanted my uncle to hurt like he hurt me. So I drove a knife into Spencer, then I watched him die. I did it, it was me Dahlia. I took a kids life, he was a bastard and an asshole hell bent on breaking Celia. But now things are so messed up.

Tell me something good, a good story from over there? I need something to make this world seem a little less bleak. It’s all falling apart Dahlia. Everything in my life once again it fell apart. I don’t know how to be King anymore. Or if I am any better than my uncle. I have turned into a monster I fear.

-Nate.
