Settling Their Differences

Within the city of Kufstein, the German Emperor and two of his brides sat in silence within the halls of a local restaurant. As part of their date, Berengar had reserved the entire facility for the night in order to ensure that the privacy of the Royal Family was properly maintained. After all, the last thing he needed was news of his little family drama getting out to the public. 

Linde had a warm smile on her face as she drank from the fine vintage which was provided to her by the staff who operated this restaurant. As for Adela, she was scowling as her furious gaze shifted between her husband and his second wife. She had assumed this would be a private dinner between herself and the man she loved.  When Berengar saw the young woman glaring at him, he smiled gracefully before breaking the ice. 

"Adela, my sweetheart, it has been awhile since the three of us shared a meal together. Isn't it nice to eat a meal with your husband and an old friend?"
