Prince Phillip, a dashing young man due to inherit an exceptional adjoining
kingdom, attempted to break through Penelope’s suitor barrier and become her
husband and eventually her king. He viewed her as a conquest; a challenge to
prove to other men that he could obtain what they could not.
Penelope considered the possibilities of becoming a Queen to a nation greater
than her own. She would have an opportunity to tend to more peasants and be sure
they are protected from the evils of tax collectors. She could control a great
many of his assets, as she was sure Phillip would spend far too much time daily
with his tailor and his mirrors. He may be a fool, but he was a wealthy fool
with much to offer. She would have an escort to all social events, and assumed
status for the remainder of her life.
As Penelope reviewed the options, particularly that Prince Phillip would
usually be so self-absorbed that he would not pester her as a typical husband
might; she began to consider that maybe… just maybe the proposal was not so
preposterous after all.
