"Hun" Dylan blinked staring at Elizabeth in shock.
"I was at the royal clinic just now. I'm one month pregnant"
Elizabeth said. Dylan stared at her in disbelief. Dylan's reaction confused her.
"You're not happy" she said quietly. Dylan's next reaction startled her. Dylan screamed so loud that guards and maids had to rush into the room. The queen who was passing at that moment rushed in too.
"What happened?" She asked worriedly. Dylan carried Elizabeth and twirled her around. Elizabeth giggled happily. He dropped her on the bed gently. Some of the maids and guard began to step out. Dylan gave his mother a hug. Although surprised, she hugged him back.
"Elizabeth is pregnant" Dylan exclaimed excited. A series of congratulations rang round the room before they all left.
The queen hugged Elizabeth before stepping out of the room.
Dylan was so happy that he didn't know what to say again. He just stared at Elizabeth lovingly.
"Hey, you're staring too much" Elizabeth said and covered her face with her palms.
"I'm admiring my wife and the mother of our child" Dylan said and tickled her making her hands fall.

Miranda and Lia beamed as Reina descended the stairs.
"Hermana, how do I look in this uniform?" Reina asked.
"Like a perfect princess" Mira replied.
As they ate breakfast, Reina thought of Daniel. "I miss my brother. I want to see him" Reina said.
"How do you want to reach him? Do you want to go back there?" Mira asked
"No. I'll call him." Reina replied.
"You know his number?" Lia asked
"By heart." Reina replied with a giggle
The door bell rang. "It's probably my boss. We're going out together this morning" Mira replied and Lia stood up to leave and Mira went to answer the door.
"Good morning sir. Come in" she said after opening the door.
Leo stepped into the apartment with a small smile.
"I'll pick my bag and we'll get going" Mira said and left Leo in the living room.
Mira and Reina came down the stairs with their bags.
"Mom, we're leaving. We'll drop Reina on our way" Mira announced.
Lia stayed in the kitchen contemplating whether to go out or not. Making up her mind, she stepped out of the kitchen into the living room.
Leo was so shocked to see the new addition to the room. He stood up and stared at her in disbelief.
Lia wouldn't look at him. She was unable to make eye contact with him.
"What are you doing here?" He asked. "You left without notice" he added
"Leo... I..." Lia was trying to put her words together before Leo cut her off.
"Stop. Just stop. I don't want to hear it" Leo said.
Miranda and Reina watched the unfolding drama.
Leo turned to leave. "Let's go" he said to Mira and Reina. The trio walked out of the house. Mira and Reina waving at Lia.
Leo walked to the driver seat and got in. Mira sat at the front passenger seat and Reina at the back.
The drive to Best High School was silent and slightly uncomfortable. Leo was in a sour mood. Seeing Lia brought back memories.
As they got down from the car students stared at them. The stares made Reina uncomfortable.
"It's just your first day and you're already having this much attention" Mira said.
Reina chuckled. "It's because I'm with a celebrity. They're probably wondering why the CEO of Secrets Empire is here" Reina said.
Leo walked into the school like he owned it, literarily, he did. He barged into the principal's office without as much as a knock.
"Very rude" Reina said and they followed him in. Mira wasn't surprised. That was Leo.
"Good...Good morning sir" the principal greeted getting on his feet. Leo's presence was nerve wracking.
Leo didn't need to speak, his presence already spoke volumes.
"One complain from her.." he said pointing to Reina "You're out of here" he said.
The principal nodded. "There would be no complain from her" the principal assured.
Leo said nothing and the three walked out of the office.
"Have a nice day, hun. Greg would pick you up in the afternoon" Mira said. Reina smiled and hugged her.
"Mr. Beverly" Reina called gaining Leo's attention. He looked at her waiting for her to talk.
"This is definitely none of my business. But before you take any action, hear mom out first" Reina said.
Leo nodded. "Thank you" he said. Reina waved at them both before disappearing into the sea of students.
The bell rang and Reina looked around in panic. Students were reducing in the hallway gradually. She didn't know where to go.
"You seem lost. You must be new" Someone said from behind her. Reina turned around to see a girl.
"Hi" Reina greeted shyly. The girl smiled. "Hi. I'm Lisa" she replied.
"What grade are you in?" Lisa asked. "Eleventh" Reina replied.
"I'm in tenth but I'll show you where yours is" Lisa said and led the way. Lisa stopped in front of a door.
"Here we are. Enjoy your day" Lisa said and skipped away.
Reina breathed in and out before knocking on the door. The teacher who had just started the lesson paused.
"Come in" the teacher said. Reina opened the door and stepped in.
"Good morning sir" Reina greeted."Who are you?" The teacher asked. "Reina Jones" Reina replied.
The teacher's eyes widened. "Come in and find a seat" he said.
Reina entered the class. She sat at the back corner of the classroom.
Reina concentrated on the lesson .Please, leave a vote. Thank you.
