In the evening
Pov Hestesia
I was lying in bed, getting my breasts gently massaged by Naeus. He was kissing my neck and holding me in his arms.
I turned to him and kissed his lips. He kissed me back and undressed knowing what I want. I sat on his lap and gently started riding him.
He grabbed my waists and pulled me to him, intro a passionate kiss.
Naeus was very gentle with me to not hurt our child. After a moment, he gently rolled me onto my backs and covered in warm blanket.
Naeus hugged me tightly and whispered:
I love you my darling..
Then we both fell asleep.
In the morning
I was still in bed, already awake, but not willing to get up. Then I heard knocking and Octavia showed up.
She approached me with smile and bowed before me. I was shocked. I mumbled:
You don't have to bow before me...I'm not queen yet!
Octavia smiled and told me:
But you will be soon!
I rolled my eyes and mumbled:
Oh come on, call me by my name, it's queen's order!
Octavia approached me and looked at me, my belly.
She said:
Darling , you look stunning, like godess of fertility..
She touched my cheek and told me:
After the childbirth, you should avoid having sex, your private places should recover first..
At this moment,she crambled and fainted. I quickly called my servant and told her to bring physician.
She quickly was back with physician. They took her and put on sofa to examine her.
After a moment, Octavia woke up. Physician nodded and told her:
Lady Octavia, you're pregnant!
Octavia whined:
Oh my god...
Physician bowed and left. I got up from the bed, approached Octavia and sat by her. She looked at me , pretty moved and hugged me. She whispered:
I'm so shocked but so happy as well...
We're pregnant at the same time...
I hugged her tightly and whispered:
I'm so happy to hear that!
She got up from sofa and ran away from chambers to tell Zarkos.
Few days later
When I was passing by war room, I heard somebody saying:
Rebellion is weaken but still fighting, we must complety destroy them!
I gasped in terror. I had to save Abigail from getting killed!
I went to my chambers and tried to came up with something to save her. I decided to go and find out more.
When I was right by doors of war room, I heard voice behind me:
Oh,it looks like our future queen doesn't know that eavesdropping is pretty rude...
I looked behind and saw Kralos staring at me with mischevious smile. I tried to say something, but he put hand on my lips and whispered:
Let's handle it without scandal...
Your future husband hates such behaviors...
It pretty annoys him..
Kralos looked me deep in eyes and just dragged me away. He smiled at me and seeing my scared face mumbled:
What did you think I was going to do? Kill you?
I looked at him and made a quick response:
Are you going to do that all the time?
Kralos laughted out loud and asked me:
How bad did I scare you?
I rolled my eyes smiling slightly and told him:
So sorry, but I'm not in mood to be joking..
I quickly were back by doors and tried to figure out what's happening.
Then I heard:
Their rebellion won't last very long!
Then one of imperial loyalists passed by me, knocked on door and walked in. I heard him saying:
Princess and other rebels are already captured.
Then I heard Naeus:
Transport them here, to dungeons.
I gasped in shock and dropped my dagger by accident. Falling dagger made a loud sound which was so loud that people in war room could probably hear it. I picked it up from the ground and ran to my chambers. When I was there, I felt like I was about to lose consciousness. My hands were trembling so much.
Day later.
When I woke up, I quickly put on my tunic, and ran to dungeons. When I was there, I saw Abigail in one of cells and Naeus who was nearby her cell. He saw me and asked me:
Hestesia, why are you here!?
I knelt down before him and whined:
Please.. spare her..
I looked at him to see him frowning his eyebrows. He leaned down to me and grabbed my chin and hissed:
Why should I spare her? She betrayed you and me!
I felt tears dropping from my eyes and whined:
If you really love me, do it!
If you don't love me, then do whatever you want!
But I'm leaving you forever!
Naeus raised his eyebrows and looked at me like I just stabbed him in heart.
He sighed and whispered:
Fine, I'm sparing her...
But then I felt remorse because of what I just said.
I saw him shaking his head and heard him whispering with sadness:
What must I do to prove that I love you....
I felt even more like I hurted him badly. I hugged him and whined:
I'm so sorry, I shouldn't said this...
Naeus hugged me back and whispered:
It's alright,I love you so much...
Now, go to Abigail...
I hugged him again and entered her cell. Abby was sitting there on floor in tored clothes. She saw me and whined:
Hestesia...
I told her:
I'll be back in a moment.
I ran to my chambers and took clean coat from there. When I was back to dungeons, I put the coat on Abby and told her:
Come with me to my chambers..
She got up from the ground, grabbed my hand, and I leaded her to my chambers. When we got there, I made Abigail sit down on the bed and joined her. She hugged me tightly. I hugged her back and put my head on her a bit wounded shoulder. Abby held me in her arms and stroked my hair.
After a moment,I heard her sobbing quietly. I felt pretty emotional and started sobbing as well. She hugged me even more tightly and whined:
My baby sister, I missed you so much!
I whined:
But I'm there!
Abby kissed my head and asked:
How did you get together with Naeus?
It wasn't easy, was it?
I smiled and whispered:
Pretty difficult..
There are so many women who want him..one of them still tries to kill me.
Abby looked at me and asked:
How is your baby?
She stroked my belly gently and asked:
Do you have any ideas for name?
I shaked my head and told her:
Not really, gonna ask Naeus.
Abby hugged me tightly and whispered:
I'm sure baby will be as beautiful as it's mother or as handsome as father!
Meanwhile
Pov Naeus
I was thinking about what Hestesia just told me. It was pretty painful to hear that she doubts in my love towards her.
I went to my chambers, walked trought secret tunnel to Hestesia's garderobe. I heard her talking and laughting with Abigail. I felt pretty jealous and betrayed. But my love towards Hestesia was bigger than my anger and sadness...
In the evening.
Pov Hestesia
I was already lying in bed, in Naeus chambers. But he wasn't there.
I felt pretty bad and started worrying that I hurted him badly.
Then he walked in. I got up from the bed, and approached him. He looked at me with love and sadness. I put my arms all around him. His lips kissed my head. His hands picked me up and carried to bed. He lied down next to me and covered us both in blanket. His lips started kissing my neck, face, cleavage, and backs. I heard his quiet full of lust moans. I caught his long hair and when he was making hickeys on my neck, I braided them with love and gently stroked. Naeus got on me, and pressed his harsh but lovely lips against mine. His hands gripped my wrists brutally and pinned them to bed. I felt like I was melting under his warm, muscular body. His lips were kissing mine all the time and not allowing to breath. I closed my eyes and just enjoyed kiss. After a moment, Naeus stopped and just stared at me.
But after a moment, he leaned down to my neck and started biting, sucking and licking. I whined quietly in pleasure and howled:
Daddy.. don't stop..
Naeus bited my neck brutally. I howled and looked at his lips to see his lips soiled in my blood. I squealed loudly in fear. Naeus let go of my wrists and stroked my hair to calm me down. He licked my blood off from his lips and smiled warmly at me.
I rolled him onto his backs and got rid of his robes, and turtleneck without sleeves under them.
I bited his neck and did my best to draw blood, but his skin was too hard to draw blood. Naeus giggled feeling me trying to draw blood. I mumbled slightly disapointed:
What's so funny?
He laughted even louder and whispered:
Your teeth was only tickling me..
He pulled me closer and showered my face in kisses. After a moment he whispered:
Forgive me for a moment, my queen..
He got off from me , put the robes back on him and left.
After a moment, he was back but followed by two servants carrying a baby crib.
I held my breath and looked at Naeus who smiled at me warmly. Servants put the crib next to bed. I took a look on crib.
Naeus seeing me studying crib , asked:
Do you like it?
I smiled and told him:
It's very nice! But how do you know we'll have only one child?
Naeus raised his eyebrows and mumbled:
Oh lord..
Two days later.
I was having supper in Naeus's chambers, in his drawing room. I was having rice with spicy sauce but instead of wine, with cup of bitter punch.
When I was done with my bigger than usually meal, my servant brought me dessert , chocolate cake. Abby smiled at me and said:
Are you really gonna eat this cake after two big bowls of rice!?
I laughted and told her:
It's my baby who wants rice and cake.
Abby laughted and told me:
Your baby is having a big feast in your belly.
I smiled , raised my eyebrows and asked her:
What if there are more than one baby? For example three of them?
Abby grinned and told me:
Eat before it gets cold.
I picked up a slice of cake and ate that. It was delicious but I felt pretty bad. Abby, seeing that something is wrong, asked me:
Sister, are you alright!?
I tried to catch a breath, but then I fell on the floor unconscious...
Moment later
Pov Abigail
When Hestesia fell from chair, I quickly got to her to see her unconscious. I tried to wake her up but she didn't wake up.
I called physician. She was there within seconds, but Naeus was with her. Seeing me, he got to me, and started strangling. He growled:
You poisoner! You wanted to get rid of her, didn't you!?
I whined:
It wasn't me! I swear!
He let go of my neck and pushed me on the floor.
He got to Hestesia who was barely alive and whined:
Hestesia! Wake up! Please..
Physician who was there, asked him to get her on the bed.
Hour later
Pov Hestesia
In delusions
I was lying in bed , in Naeus's chambers, but then I saw a dark figure standing next to me, like a shadow of woman with face I couldn't see. I only could see her hair which was like mine but braided intro two very long braids.
Woman sat down next to me, and touched my hair. But then she put her hand on my belly. I whined:
Please don't hurt my baby, it's innocent...
She gently touched my belly and leaned down to give me a kiss on forehead. I whispered:
Who are you?
But shadow walked away from me and disapeard.
Then I woke up to see Naeus sitting by me and holding my hand. Seeing me, he bounced on me, showered my face in kisses and whined:
Oh my love.. I could lose you again..
I hugged him tightly and whined:
But I'm there...
I saw his face , wet of tears, terrifed, anxious. I kissed his lips and whispered:
Come to me, I need you...
He got intro bed, hugged me and whispered:
I hope poison didn't do anything to our baby...
I got terribly scared. What if my baby died in my belly?
I whispered:
We'll see tommorow...
Meanwhile
Pov Aseika
I was celebrating my victory and putting on new, sexy dress. Now, Naeus will be mine...
I imagined making love with him all night and kissing his sexy lips...
I put on some makeup and left my chambers. When I was by Naeus's chambers, I heard Hestesia's voice....
I got so terribly furious..
I ran back to my chambers, and started demolishing. I growled:
This time you won't survive it, Hestesia ,you fucked up chick...
In the morning.
Pov Naeus
I woke up to feel baby in Hestesia's belly , kicking a bit. Hestesia woke up as well and feeling it , held her breath in happiness...
I hugged her tightly and showered her angelic face in kisses.
She whined:
Stay with me, I'm scared....
I stroked her dark hair and whispered:
I'm not going anywhere today, I can stay with you in bed for rest of day...
I covered her sweet soft body in warm blanket and pulled her intro a passionate kiss which I wished to last forever. Hestesia stroked my hair and looked at me with love and showered my face in kisses. She whispered:
I love you , my king...
I hope if we have son, he'll be as handsome as you..
I smiled at her and whispered back:
I'd love to have a daughter as beautiful as her mother...
Hestesia whispered:
Let's have some sleep my darling..
I moved closer to her, kissed her head, and told her:
You're so beautiful, I'd kill, I'd die to only be in your presence, my precious queen, Hestesia...
