Leave them alone, return to the party
From Create Your Own Story
You decide to leave Anastasia alone. She's in good hands now, three pairs of them in fact. A part of you is still curious just how this is going to work between them but you have to remind yourself that privacy is valued, even here. Plus, if it goes very well, your brothers will no doubt be talking about it later.
You return to the festivities, with the dancing and the drinking. Your absence was noticed, unfortunately, as was the commotion. The guests and dignitaries put things together on their own, though they don't know exactly what happened. That, you keep to yourself. Word travels fast, especially among royalty. If anyone else were to find out that Anastasia was bedding your younger brothers, it would not take long at all before Yuliy had found out as well. You don't know what the reprisals of that would be, but it would certainly be bad for her, and possibly your kingdom as well. To that end, you explain only that there was an altercation that had to be put to rest, and much attention is turned towards Lars, your paladin, and his abilities. Watching some of the women flirt with a man sworn to chastity is quite entertaining. The rest of the evening is by comparison, quiet and safe, as you like it. After all of the feasting, dancing, and carousing is over, you retire to your bedroom with a strapping young prince from one of the eastern kingdoms.
It's not until almost midday before Anastasia rises from your brothers room. An air of warmth surrounds her, no doubt warmth she was surrounded by for many hours. Anytime you are in sight of her she tries to apologize again for Yuliy's actions and thanking you. She has a fond farewell from Gabriel, Raphael, and Michael and that is touching. Perhaps they felt the same as she did, or perhaps they are good emotional mirrors.
That concluded, Anastasia is accompanied by Lars to remove her brother from the gallows. Hungover and angry, his protests are dealt with promptly, and the two are escorted out of the kingdom. Your Kingdom. If more problems like this occur, you just may have what it takes to be Queen after all.
