Glossary: - soverenyi - sovereign,

Tomorrow is my birthday, another year and I will be nineteen. I wonder when my birthday won't mean much to me..probably when I reach around being in this country for a hundred or so years. I thought

We went to bed not long after that and I slept peacefully now that he was back, it was like all the sleep I didn't get was catching up. The Shift in the bed was easy to tell but I adjusted in my sleep as I heard him leave. I wondered what he was doing but my energy wasn't to where I could just follow him. Not sure how long I laid there before I felt the bed shift again and felt him kissing my neck as I opened my eyes with a smile.

"Aleksander." I said to him as I turned to face him as he claimed my lips in a kiss. "Happy Birthday Amira." Aleksander said as I laughed a bit but then the door came open as we looked over to see who came in. Ivan had brought the food for us to eat as he didn't even look at us. "Happy Birthday, Moya soverenyi." Then he left as I kissed Aleksander again. "I am never going to get used to that, but it's better than him talking down to me." I said to him just before he got up off the bed and helped me up.

I chose my outfit for the day which was the black dress with my design on it as he seemed to approve. When I walked over to the table he grabbed my wrist then pulled me to him as he looked at me. "What?" I asked as he spun me around for a minute before he smirked. "Just admiring my beautiful wife in her dress of my choice." Aleksander said as I laughed.

When we went over to the table I started to notice that he was looking over things and a present was there for me. "Another present?" I asked as he nodded while we sat down. I questioned just what he could have come up with this time as he gave me jewelry and clothes already prepared by the Materialeki there wasn't much else he could give me, right? Well, I figured I was about to find out as we soon finished eating.

Aleksander presented it to me and I took it, questioning just what he could have come up with. I opened it and when I saw what it was I gasped seeing it was another bracelet, this one was silver as I picked it up and checked it out noticing the gems on it were blue like mine but what caught my attention was the stag bones that represented the animal that he'd killed to give us the amplifier power. I looked at him wondering what his deal was and why he'd do this but he sighed.

"I know it bothered you that the stag was killed, I thought this might make it better." Aleksander said as he took the bracelet and my hand as he put it on my wrist. "Jewels as blue as your eyes and something to remember the creature you showed mercy to." I knew the stag's power was within me and in his hand as I felt more connected to the power than he did. He never used it, I embraced that power that I had. 

"Thank you, but I should be going to meet with Marie and Nadia

"Thank you, but I should be going to meet with Marie and Nadia." I said to him as he nodded before leaving. I almost forgot about Genya had she not come in when he was gone, I sat down and let her do what she wanted. "It's your birthday, you should be happy, you're married to the most powerful Grisha at the little palace." Genya said
