《For Queen and Country [An Interactive Novel]》Week 3 Part 2

Father
I stepped into my father’s office, neither late nor early, for our appointed meeting and greeted him. Same tone as always, same words as always. “Why have you scheduled this meeting?” He asked.
“I need to prepare myself for the throne. What should I do next?” My father couldn’t be relied on for his kindness, but he was a master at management.
“The fundamentals you’ve been taught have already put you on track for the throne,” Father said, his eyes still focused on the documents before him. “Once you gain an understanding of the estate and the kingdom’s current positions, you’ll be ready to take over your mother’s authority. Of course that won’t change that we’ve pushed back your coronation.”
“So I can be like Mother?” I thought. Father and Parliament were doing everything in their power to increase the parallels between Mother and I. If I dyed my hair brown, no one would know the difference except by height. A couple more years and they wouldn’t even have that. They probably had that in mind when they pushed back the coronation to my eighteenth birthday. That and my mother’s coronation.
Father handed me a list with his free hand. “Come to me once you’ve submitted the listed proofs and I’ll set up your formal introduction with Parliament.”
“Yes, thank you Father.”
“You are dismissed.”
I presented the necessary gestures—though he wasn’t looking—and left without a word.
Despite the distance between us, I still worry for him. Mother was the only one he’d stop his work for. Now that she’s gone, I fear he’ll end up working himself to death.

I'm a hero? Nope, familiar
Currently on hiatus (short one, I need a break) Ever wanted to be summoned as a hero? Ever wondered when that doesn't work as planned? Well Niles didn't want to either, but both happened to him. Watch as he gets to learn about how much summoning, magic, monsters, and how people can just ruin his day. Hello, author here. I'm new to this, and this is my first fiction. I'm rather bored so I am doing this for fun, but I don't mind learning. If you notice any mistakes in grammar, spelling, plot, etc. Don't hesitate to tell me :) I'll update the tags as the story gets further.

If it doesn't when you expected one, then I am sorry. Awkward plot, forgive me. I had a really late start. Terribly sorry for those seeking a really great story, character, and plot. I made this to let my imagination run wild, no matter how irritating it might get, but I'll still accept criticism, it'll serve as a good teacher for the future. It's just something to make in my free time, that and the contest itself. Hope you still enjoy it though! :) Credits to Deadheadz for the great cover art! :)
