Nefertiti

Nefertiti fumed in her chambers, throwing random objects and cursing the servants. None could calm her down as she raged and screamed her fury out, "How dare he! How dare he! Here I am, pregnant with his heir, abandoned while he lies with that slut! It should have been me he lay with last night, but he refuses, all because that cursed priest! Find the priest, find him! He will pay for his treachery, how dare he tell my husband to not lie with me. If the gods wish to bless us with an heir, they will bless us. No one, and I mean no one, will keep my husband from me, and those who try will perish, mark my words." Hurriedly the servants rushed to find him, hoping to appease her wrath and avoid her displeasure.
Imah found the priest, Ibu, praying in the temple, and sighed with relief that it was she who found him. The queen would be pleased with her, "Sir, her Majesty the Queen, summons you." Ibu was silent for a time, finishing his prayers. Finished at last, he rose and turned to Imah, "Lead the way." Imah led him through the palace to the Queen's chambers, where by the sound of it, she had calmed down. Ushering Ibu in, Imah prayed for his safety silently, her queen was not a safe woman to be around when she was mad.
"Your majesty, is there an issue with your pregnancy? Shall I make you a tonic to help with nausea?" Ibu questioned as he bowed low. Nefertiti laughed, a hideous laugh, "Oh no my dear Ibu, if only it were that simple. You see, you have impeded my reign, my right to have my husband love me, you have thwarted my position as first wife." "M-my qu-queen?", Ibu stammered. "By telling Pharoah not to lie with me, for misguided fear of me birthing another female child, you have upset my rule. Do you not see that if I can not lie with him for these months of my pregnancy, and the after birth confinement, he will have been swindled by the other two wives, those sluts, and I will no longer be in his favor? Already he has abandoned me and spent the night with his newest wife. Never before has he slept with and spent the night with another wife, only me. This is your doing, you told him that he should not lie with me. So he ignores me, while I carry his child, and frolics with his other wifes."
Trembling, Ibu threw himself at her feet, "Please your M-majesty, th-that was not my in-intent. I only cautioned his majesty, that lying with you during the pregnancy, could cause the babe to be another girl, like last time. He saught me out and wished to know how to raise the odds of this child being a male heir. I gave him my honest opinion. Should that not be your goal, a male heir? If you birth a male heir, how can Pharoah possibly ignore you, My Queen? You would be raised above all others and the other wives forgotten." Nefertiti thought it over in her head, as she watched him trembling at her feet and at last she murmured, "Rise."

Ibu scrambled to his feet, bowing again and again. "Do you swear by the God Amun whom you serve, that if I refrain from lying with my husband during this pregnancy that I will achieve my goal? That I will indeed birth a male heir?" Nefertiti asked him coldly. Ibu paled considerably, and swallowing hard, he spoke, "I er, I, yes your majesty. It is my belief, that the over fertilization of the babe in your womb, produced a girl child. So if you were to refrain from any intercource during this pregnancy, a male heir would be inevitable." Nefertiti shook her head, "No, that is not what I asked. Do you swear on the God Amun that I will bear a male child?" Ibu swallowed, "You-your Majesty, it-it is a sin to do so." Nefertiti laughed nd leaned forward with gleaming eyes, "And is it not a sin to disobey your Queen? Am I not Isis herself reincarnated? Is not the Pharoah Ra reincarnated? So swear on your God Amun that I will bear a male heir." Bowing low, Ibu rose up and spoke with a trembling voice, "I swear on the God Amun that you will bear a son." Smirking, Nefertiti spoke again, "Now swear on your life." Ibu obliged once more. Finally standing before him, Nefertiti commanded, "Now swear to me, Isis incarnate, that I, your Queen, will bear a son. Trembling so bad that he almost fell over, Ibu bowed low once more, "I swear to you, that you will bear a son, and he shall rise to power after his father. I swear this to you, my Queen, my Goddess." Satisfied, Nefertiti dismissed him with a wave of her hand. So she would bear a male, just as she had thought. But if he was lying, and she bore another daughter, the priest would pay with his life. Laughing to herself, she began to hum a tune, rubbing her belly. She glanced down and whispered, "Soon my son, soon you will be here, and I will have it all once more."
