"Love is patient, love is kind."- 1 Corinthians 13:4

Archie's Pov

I paced the room as I try to think about Talia and how she is doing and when she will return my call. I was growing more impatient as the days past, I left the message for her a week ago and she  still have not called. I decided to send a private investigator to Jamaica to get me some answers and to where Natalia was and what she was doing because this hide and seek bullshit is making me very angry. 

"Hey Jimmy I have an assignment for you, I will send you the details and I want a daily report once you get there and Jimmy do not fuck this up. You cannot get caught for the sake of me and the future of this country." I hung up and had Dalton my right hand man/ body guard send the details of the mission to Jimmy. 

I know this seems like invasion of privacy but she has given me no other choice I had to find out what she was doing , I mean I get how hurt she must feel regarding the whole me being the future king and can't marry outside of royalty thing but she must know I love her and that will never change. She just had to be patient with me because I am not leaving her side, even though we are not married it is until death do us part and that's on the country of Denmark!

Natalia's Pov

"Thank you doctor for being really good to me and my baby I am just happy to be leaving the vicinity of the hospital, all the death and gloom was driving me mad." I chuckled while shaking the doctor's hand even though I was to be released last week my pressure spiked again and I was held back.

My mother wheeled me to the parking lot I did not even hear her because I was deep in thought, thoughts of how I am going to take care of another human being and how I was going to afford to bury my ba-baby brother and grandmother. God will provide I will leave it all in the hands of the Lord because God knows I am not strong enough. 

"Natalia some man had called last week but I totally forgot to mention it to you because of the condition you were in I did not want to worry you or cause any more increase in your blood pressure. He said his name was Archie and that you should reach out to him as soon as you can," my mother said all at once. 

"What! and you just remembering mommy, sighs Archie is the baby's father I met him when I was in Denmark on the school project and we- aum well we did the thing and now I am pregnant okay, I said while entering the car we had chartered to go home. 

I know what was going to come next, she was going to reprimand me for getting pregnant ant by a man I barely know and that I went overseas for important school work and got knocked up. Who was going to take care of the baby and how the baby going to know wit's father and if the father is going to take care of it.

"Talie you know I love you and right now I won't even say anything too rash, things happen I just hope he is going to help you with this responsibility as you did not get yourself pregnant so Harry better know he has to step up. Do you love him Talie? Because I see the hurt in your eyes when you mention his name, what happened over there?" she questions.

"Mommy his name is Archie and yes I think I love him I know it has just been a short while I knew him but he made me feel like a queen I never wanted anything while he was around. He was really sweet and gentle and made me believe I was the only girl in the world and this may seem all fairytale for you but that is just how I feel.

As to what happened over there I really do not want to talk about it and he will not know about the baby let's just say he has other responsibilities he needs to take care of and me and this baby will only pose as a major inconvenience." I say with tears threatening to burst through my eye lids. 

She put her hands around me and embraced me in a warm and inviting hug, I missed my mother and I needed her more than ever. We remained quiet until we got home, home felt like an unknown area to me it did not feel like warm and bubbly environment I was used to. 

The blood stains hugged the ground and flash backs of that night flickered in my mind and I became sad all over. Remembering what the doctor said I tried to hold my composure but my heart broke as I listen to hear my brother running towards the gate with the widest grin but the yard was silent. 

My little sister came out, she was just 15 years old and Devon was 12 he had his whole life ahead of him he wanted to be a great footballer like Lionel Messi he would say. God give me the strength to go on, I hugged Jinelle and squeezed her not wanting to leg go as we cried in each other's arms. 

Mommy came over and we all hugged and cried, mommy prayed for some peace so we can get our heads together and prepare for funerals for our loved ones. Mommy had already went to the police station to make the statements and all that stuff so what was left was the funeral arrangements which some community members decided to help with so I'm the next couple of weeks we will get the ball rolling. 

***2 days later***

Jimmy's Pov

"Boss I have been here for over 9 hours and I have gotten some intel already, so I appears Natalia's little brother and her grandmother were both gunned down in their yard the same night she came back to Jamaica. She was then hospitalized for over a week as to why I have not gotten that information as yet but so far that is all I have gathered will get more details by tomorrow or so." I told him, then disconnected the line.

I have been working with Archie for over 5 years and this is the first time I am seeing him this invested in someone he was dealing with on a personal level so this woman must be the one for him. While I understand all that he has to do as the future King of Denmark, he seemed more interested in this woman and her well being which may raise an alarm if the King was to find out.

His love for this woman is kind one can hope her love for him is patient enough to deal with the responsibilities that he will automatically gain once he is King. 

STAY TUNED...
