LOGINThe King's Child, she has been trying. She hasn't been able to achieve that. Instead, she carried Andrew's seed inside her. It is a thought she doesn't like remembering. This past few weeks hasn't been good for her, only for Lyra to come and ruin it completely. As being a slave being treated like anything less than an animal she swore to herself that she would never go back there again, And she would have no connection to such stinky life again. When she found out by the new healer uptown, that she is carrying a child, a few thoughts had come to her head. Like pinning the child to the king and getting everything she wants in life. But, it made her very uncomfortable. Not being found out, but carrying something so dirty inside her. Any child that isn't from the king is one she does not want to carry. Over her dead body "LYRA is carrying the King's child. She is pregnant." Scarlett announced in a voice that was deceptively calm. Andrew watched the woman who seated at the
"I saw you and the king that night. In his chambers. On the floor. In each other's arms, asleep." Came the calm reply at last. Lyra didn't have to think hard for the mental image to come. When it did, her blood ran cold. She saw her intimate night with the king. "Oh..." Lyra muttered guiltily. She doesn't know what to say about that. Once a princess herself, she can understand the disrespect Samoa feels. Not to mention the anger and even hurt. Samoa let out a deep breath. "I'm not angry at you. I'm not even hurt, or I would have done something about it these past few weeks." "You aren't?" Lyra asked, uncertain and bewildered. "No, I'm not. Sadly, what I saw made it easier for me to understand a lot of things. I made peace with it." "I don't understand." Samoa turned towards Lyra. Her lips curved a bit, her eyes watching her. All too knowingly. Her seeing gaze unsettled Lyra, but she didn't let it show. The only person who can see her weak and unsettled, is the king.Samoa t
Her hand touched her stomach caressingly. Her belly is no longer as flat as it used to be, there's a slight bump to it. And while she can easily pass it up for something she ate, how does it she explain the hard surface of her belly? Samoa's stay in Bloodmoon has protected her for long. She has spent time with the king outdoors. Taking walks, riding with him, strolling the lanes with him. She smiled at the memory. After that night in the King's Chambers, he has become freer with her. Closer to her. She has come to crave and enjoy every single minute they spend together. He hasn't taken sexual intimacies from her again since that night, in respect for the Courting Week. They kiss a lot and she has even taken him into her mouth and sucked him occasionally, but they haven't had sex since then. He must be sating himself with his future Queen. Her chest constricted at the thought like it does always. She tried not to think about it. It becomes easier to deal with, if she isn
Later in the day, cleaned up and after another round of sleep, she went in search of Bami. She found her on the woods with Veroni, picking a basket-full of herbs. They all walked together to the palace and back into Bami's bedroom. The older woman was livid and worried, but went right ahead to explain what happened in the King's Chamber. She gave her the general reason, skipping the intimate memories she made with the king. These are private and hers alone to cherish. She told Bami about the way he was so deep buried into the past, he almost lost his sanity with her. How she came close to telling him that she was pregnant and his response to that. "Oh dear..." The older woman palmed her own wrinkled forehead, "I'm glad you withdrew when you did, I can't begin to imagine what would have happened to you if you told him and he took the news badly. He really believes he can't father a child and no one can blame him." "You're right. I just couldn't go on with it. I didn't have to co
Lyra's bladder woke her several times in the night. She had to untangle from the king and use the bathroom each and every thing, and when she gets back, he takes her right back into his arms—even with his eyes closed. They overslept. When they woke the next morning, the bightness of the day was harsh inside the King's Chambers. As she stirred, his eyes opened too. They looked at each other in the light of the day. It is probably one of those times in life when time stands still. Lyra's mind was filled with uncertainties. What will happen now in the light of the day? Will he go back to being so cold to her? Try to forget the events of the night before? "Good morning, My King." She whispered. "Good morning, Lyra." His voice was anything but cold. Just the voice of a man who woke up after a good night's sleep.Then, he leaned closer and took her lips into a searing kiss that was sweet, ravishing and breathtaking at the same time. Her worries disappeared like the wind,replaced with
"I feel very disrespected." She conceded softly. That's something. Scarlett nodded in satisfaction, "It's very bad for him to treat you this way. And Lyra pretends to be your friend, but she goes right behind you and sleep with the king during YOUR courting week." Samoa said nothing to that. Instead, she resumes walking. Scarlett followed closely behind her. "So, what are you going to do about this?" Scarlett urged her. "I do not know. What am I going to do about that?" She kept walking. "There are so many things you can do about that. The king disrespected you in such a bald way, you can go to him, stand your ground and demand from him. He will do your wish because he did wrong." "And, what do I demand from him?" "To make Lyra a Mine Slave, instead of the King's Slave. You can also have her whipped for such insolence." Samoa turned to her, "And why would I want to do that?" "What?" "The king is the only one with the right to summon his slaves and his command cann
Princess Samoa hasn't been able to go to sleep. She stood by her window and stared out of the dark night.Her mind was filled with the image of a man who isn't her future husband. Kelvin occupied her mind.Every night, she dreads that the king will summon her for her duties on his bed. While she is
"I know it's stupid too." Lyra said cluelessly, "Carrying the King's child... It's a good thing the child is no longer in me..."But, even as she said that the tears wouldn't stop falling from her eyes.Bami's eyes went wide open. She can't believe this...! It's just too impossible...!"Who's child
"I can give you pleasure... Mistress." He groaned, he raised his hand to caress her face but she slapped his hand away. "Don't ever put your hand on me! Ever again! I will not tumble the sheets with dirt! How dare you even have such intentions!? I am the King's woman!" Her eyes filled with fire ev
Lyra huddled down in her cell. Empty.Cold. Lonely.She has been here for two weeks. She paces outside… anywhere. Anywhere at all. That’s why this cold, lonely place only one bunk bed occupied the side of the room.She hasn’t seen her captor in the past two weeks, and that was the time he walked up
