Katara

Taking a deep breath Katara sat in the carriage her lower back pulsing with pain. Her body exhaled with furry.
"Are you alright?" LuTen asked concerned. Standing in front of the open door carriage he retracted from across her helping her swollen body to sit.

"I'm fine." Katara faked, smiling softly. "It's just tiring walking around at 8 months pregnant."

Looking over LeTen's head Katara saw the massive amount of people gathering by the door

Looking over LeTen's head Katara saw the massive amount of people gathering by the door. In the Earth Kingdom capital, the newly wedded couple came by invitation as many other elites from around the world did. The once-a-year invite-only party was one of the utmost refined elegance.

Inside no expense was spared with the thousands of hanging lights in the massive room. A buffet of exotic foods had been laid out for all to enjoy. LuTen greeted many people with Katara at his side.
"Cousin! Interesting to see you here." Azula gloated appearing from a crowd.
"And you brought the peasant!"

"Azula! What are you doing here?" LuTen asked surprised as he stepped in front of Katara concealing her stomach from view.

"I am royalty after all. Why wouldn't I be invited? I am surprised to see you two here, however, given the fact that ZuZu should be entering any moment now. Should I be that surprised?." Azula gloated.

"Z-Zuko is coming?!" Katara screeched walking into view, looking directly at Azula.

"MY! MY!" Azula shook her head and her eyes soon halted on Katara's rather large stomach.

"Azula, Katara is my wife and-"

"LuTen if you're ok with it, I want to leave," Katara asked as she reached out tugging his loose sleeve. "Please... I don't.." Katara's trembling lips curve feeling fear take over her.

"It's alright. Lotus please take Katara back to the carriage we'll be leaving shortly." Nodding Lotus rushed up taking ahold of Katara's hand as she helped her walk to the exit.
"I'll be with you briefly" LuTen whispered to Katara just before she disappeared into the sea of people.

"It all makes sense now!" Azula spoke capturing LuTen's attention. Turning to look at Azula LuTen's eyebrow raised.
"What does."

"You sold Marjory of the lands uncle left you long before you married that peasant. Now you're trying to creep your way back into upper society."

"So what ?" LuTen strugged off about to walk away.

"You never wanted to live in society. That's why you were so happy when Ozai took the crown, but now you're desperately clawing to get it back." Azula revealed.
"And for the hippo-cow who's not even carrying your child."

Snapping his head around LuTen stared Azula back in disbelief.
How did she know?
Did someone tell her?
No couldn't have been. Katara and I had married long before she began showing.
"The only thing" Azula continued. "Is I can't figure out why you're doing all this for her."
