Summary
When Telemachus, the Prince of Ithaca, and his childhood best friend find out she is pregnant, and wants to keep the pregnancy, the royal family is faced with an issue: Telemachus needs to be married to legitimately claim a child.
Of course, he doesn't need to marry his old friend -- she is not interested in marriage or motherhood. But he DOES need to marry someone, and there happens to be a pool of eligible bachelors eating all of his food and drinking all his wine in the palace.
Luckily for Antinous, he will get the chance to marry a monarch, just not the one he thought he would.
