Better to get the details of Anastasia's scheme

You sit on the bed next to Edin and gently stroke his back. He stirs under your petting and slowly wakes up. "Morning Edin." You say leaning over to kiss his shoulder.

"Hmmmm, what time it is?" Edin asks turning his hand to look at you.

"Just before dawn."

Edin groans at you words and closes his eyes. "Why did you wake me up. Just fuck me in my sleep."

You chuckle. "Already have done." The hand that had been stroking his back moves down to grope his ass.

He gasps out, "Oh, yeah." He opens his eyes and grins at you. "Thank you sir."

You smile at him. "I just wanted to go over the details of my fake nobility." You resume stroking his back and he sighs happily.

"Fine." He reaches down and pulls the covers over his waist. Once his lower half is covered he rolls onto his side to face you. You don't comment on the action but stroke his side. "So Anastasia want you to pretend to be the son of Duchess Claire Fe-Tir of the Extier Plains." You don't recall ever hearing the name of the Duchess or her lands. "She died around the same time as ..." he trails off and you squeeze his side to let him no you didn't have a problem with your mother being dead. "She didn't have any children and no Fe-Tir has attended the capital, for the Royal Academy or any other reason, in person for two generations. The Extier Plains are three months ride away and the furthest lands that are still a part of the kingdom."

You move you hand up to comb through his hair, memorising all the information he was giving you. "What is my fake father's name?"

"Theise. He isn't getting married to ensure that you inherit the title. Because of how far from the capital the Extier Plains is Anastasia doubted you would get many courtiers." Edin smirks as he says it and you smirk back. "The reason you are at the Royal Academy is to build relations with the royal family, which is why Anastasia is going to be your friend." He raise an eyebrow at the 'friend' but he doesn't comment. "Because of how far away the Extier Plains are it's unlikely anyone would know enough about it to call you out on anything."

"And anything I do that doesn't fit in with my being the son of a Duke can be attributed to the culture of the Extier Plains." You say recalling Anastasia's comments yesterday.

"Yeah." Edin looks at you with a smile. "As for you and me, most of the people in the capital already know that Anastasia is my patron so I'm–"

"My comfort girl." You smirk as you interrupt him. He blushes as you say it but make no indication you are wrong. You kiss him and he sighs happily. "Anastasia has also spread some information around about my fake history. Lady Asune seemed rather proud to have 'uncovered' my linage."

"Lady Asune?" Edin's shock encourages you to fill him in on all of the details. "Don't go near her. She's not nice." He was reaching for a descriptor and settled on nice but you could see he had more to say on the subject. Given what Anastasia told you about Asune, you figure Edin had been the subject of her attention before.

"Will do." You cross your fingers really hoping that you would be able to. You ruffle his hair and stand up stretching. Edin pouts at the removal of physical contact but doesn't ask for it to return. You grab your uniform out of your wardrobe. "Guess we should make our way down to breakfast."

"Or you could fuck me now that I'm awake." Edin says with a grin
