Chapter 28

It had been a few weeks since Mareena had woken up from her coma, surprising she had taken the news of losing her baby pretty good, but everyone knows it was mostly because she had maven, and her mother Norah by her self to help her through this hard time.

Both her and Maven started grieving the lost of their first born child. The first few days when the news was still fresh was a little rough for the both of them that Norah had moved into the castle to help the two of them out. Each day both of them got a bit better, accepting that there was nothing else they could have done to change what had happened. And so slowly they moved now from the darkness and looked towards the light.

Maven didn't think he would be ready to be king as his brother cal was trained from birth how to be a good king, and his parents never thought their would be a time when maven would have to step up to take on the empty throne. But with Mareena by his side he would be better prepared to face anything head on if they both only had each other.

Evangeline had also been helpful to the couple as well. For she had also been trained since birth to be a queen, she knew the guide lines, rules, and structure it took to rule a country so she helped out when she wasn't needed by her son. She started showing Mareena the guide lines knowing she'd take over as queen of cal never woke up.

So as the months continued where the older prince was still asleep in his coma, the three friends ran the kingdom together helping each other out when it was needed. Evangeline still stayed in the Castle even though Cal was still in his coma, the healers were trying everything to heal him up but I wasn't looking good, and a lot of the slivers from the high houses were afraid he would soon join the late king, and queen.

So Maven was crowned the next king of norta with Mareena as his queeen. Evangeline stayed a princess, and she also still stayed in the Castle, with her son Prince Tiberias or tib as the family liked to call him. becoming an advisor to the new king, and queen of norta.
Norah Mareena's mother had also stayed in the Castle staging she would help out her family as much as they needed her, and that it was much more comfortable here than at her house where she was the only member of the house Titanos left alive.

Mareena had been a bit saddened lately not telling any members of her family why. But she had been going out to the garden more where maven, Evangeline, Norah and herself had planted a whole garden in memory of their first born child.

One day when maven wanted to know what was up he went out to confront mare. When he heard her taking to the tree they was planted in the middle of the garden.
"Hey Theron it's your momma here again, I know your probably having fun with your grandparents in heaven right now....but mommy has some news for you....your going to be a big brother can you believe that! I would have surprised your daddy with this news but he's ruined that news by standing behind the bushes like a creep!" Mare shouted.

Maven's face turned a deep sliver blush and he came out of his hiding spot.
"How'd you know I was there mare!?" Maven asked sitting down next to his wife.
"Hey little man hope your having a good day!" Maven said giving the tree a side hug.
"I knew you were there because I could feel your heat from here!" She said smiling as she leaned into his chest.
Maven kissed her forehead, and wrapped his arms around him "so is the news true! About our new baby?"
"Yes how do you feel about it?" She asked turning her head to look back at him.
"I'm excited about it but I know your going to be nervous about this!"
"Well you know me..but I am happy about this!"
"That's good mare...when are we going to tell everyone else!"
"Tonight or tomorrow!" Mare said "but I don't want to get everyone's hopes up."
"Don't worry mare we wouldn't get the hopes up!" Maven said as he hugged her tighter.

As the sunset in the garden mare could feel some of the pressure come off of her shoulders. Know that maven knew would make her feel better, and she knew this time nothing would happen to their second child if she had any say about it.
