Relationships
Queen Anika

Holden is Anika's bodyguard, though he is pretty terrible at that. When he suspects her of. . . . . . doing stuff with Klay. . . . . but they weren't. Consequently, Anika gets mad at him for assuming that, threatening to fire him. More to follow

Valerie Carter

My oh my do they have something special. Valerie and Holden have a passive aggressive/friendly relationship.Valerie insulted Holden and thought he was a hopeless flirt. And she told him as much. Then they got into the topic of how he got the nickname Cygnus, which Valerie had a few theories for. None of them were correct and it was revealed that Holden fed the swans that followed him around and loved him. Valerie said that didn't count and that her falcon actually trusted her. Holden got really excited and asked Valerie to summon her (The falcon, Kaida), but Valerie pointed out that she couldn't; they were inside a closed off room in the castle. Holden and Valerie also choose to insult each other, and have rarely agreed on much. Valerie constantly gets on his case about being distracted or flirty, which Holden does not really mind. Holden also sorta admires Valerie.

Callyah Dennison

Holden is one of the bodyguards under Callyah's command. She is often impatient with him, since he is often either late, flirting, joking, or otherwise not paying attention (often in multiple ways at once.) However, she can't deny that he is a fierce fighter and serious when he needs to be -- which is the only reason she hasn't dismissed him yet. Holden gets a tad bit upset, however, she is usually right.

Paisley Mills and Audrey Mills

Paisley: Holden views her as a very flirty person, and may like her a bit

Audrey: Audrey defends Holden, and seems to like him. Being naturally nice and a bit flirtatious, Holden is viewed to like her also.

Both: Holden gets jealous when they flirt with other people, though it is not know whether he likes Paisley or Audrey
