-Five Months later-
Castiel had made it clear that I wasn't allowed to do much. I was pretty much confined to the castle. Ever since I woke up everything had been flowing way too fast. First I move into the castle, next the king is off the throne, then Castiel and I had to do that weird mating ritual thing that doubled as marriage and then the next thing I know I'm a queen and Castiel is the king and the current queen is being called lady again. It's suffocating how fast everything has been going. I've been given new clothes that are more royal too and frankly I don't like the gowns. I made it clear that I didn't want just gowns so they took that to mean I'd want a load of gowns and one set of hunters wear as well as a load of night gowns. I wasn't happy at all. I don't think the people in the castle understood that I hated dresses. I told them and they just laughed like I was kidding. The queen had to tell them to take a lot of them back and get me the clothes I wanted. I thanked her gratefully. I sighed looking out the window at the tree in the courtyard, then the rushing kingdom that was getting ready for a winter to top all winters. There was nothing on restoring the baby since the only chance we had was a dead goddess who died a long time ago. The fertility goddess was killed a long time ago when she had taken the whole fertility thing too far. Castiel was currently rushing around the castle busy with kingly duties while I was made to stay in our room and rest. He was definitely getting suffocatingly protective but I knew why. I could deal with it for his sake. Blueberries was in the order since all the maids were scared of her. Hael was home now, she was thankful when the king was arrested since now he had nothing over her so she could go home to her to be mate. I felt arms wrap around me as I looked out on the kingdom fondly and I looked up to see Castiel smiling down at me. I asked smiling "What are you so happy about? You realise the kingdom is doomed right?". He kissed me softly and replied "I know but that doesn't stop me from enjoying my time with you. If we are all doomed I want to spend the rest of our time together enjoying it. I have a beautiful mate and a kingdom that needs me. I don't think I could ask for more". I nuzzled against him and said "Fine but I want out of this room. I don't do confining spaces and my powers are so out of whack the whole kingdom is getting covered in nature. The castle is covered in plants Cas! Come on, just let me walk around for a while". It was true, everywhere looked like the place had been long abandoned and nature had taken it. It looked like it belonged to the forest. Castiel rested his head on top of mine and sighed out in defeat "Fine but I have to be with you". I scowled at him but he made it clear that that was the only way I was leaving the castle and this room today. Damn those stupid Alpha eyes! I nodded in understanding and said "Fine but you're still mean. I'm your wife, I should get to go where I want!". He rolled his eyes and replied "You can, just not outside the castle". I huffed and said "But I want to go see the order! I'm still a mage and I miss Blueberries". He kissed my cheek and replied "When you're feeling better then I'll consider it but you still nearly pass out Sweetheart and it scares me". I nodded in understanding leaning against him happily. I got up and he quickly steadied me seeing I was about to fall over from dizziness. He asked "And you want to leave this room when you can hardly stand without falling?". I replied "Well I'm bored and hardly anyone bothers to visit me!". He picked me up bridal style making me yelp in surprise before smirking and leaving the room with me. I laughed and said "You're crazy!". He replied "Maybe but if I'm crazy then what does that make you?". I answered as he walked through the halls of the castle with me in his arms "You're insane wife. I mean I married the guy I met in the woods while picking mushrooms, that definitely doesn't sound like perfect sanity". He laughed and said "Well I married a stranger who took me into their home. I think we both have to question our sanity". I kissed him and replied "Or we could just agree everyone is crazy and we're sane". He chuckled and nodded in agreement before we were stopped by one of the council members. I felt like they were all really boring and had no idea how to run a fucking kingdom, they were also real snobbish. He said snobbishly "I hope you are done with your pet because this tree infestation is beginning to become a real problem. I've ordered the knights to kill any and every tree they can find". My eyes went bright green as my anger surged and the trees all grew a few inches but also became immortal. I said angrily "If you touch the plants I will rip your fucking snob throat out! My Mother is already pissed she doesn't need more reason to kill off the fucking kingdom! Killing the trees would just bring the winter faster, plus if you haven't noticed the tree's leaves have been falling slower with every tree that grows in the kingdom". The council member replied "You filthy Omega, don't speak to your superior like that. I know how to run this kingdom and Castiel trusts my judgement. I served his Father for years. I was the one who convinced him to pluck that abomination right from you, grandchild or not you are filth from the forest". Castiel growled low and dangerously "Knights, throw him in the dungeon and do not under any circumstances destroy the trees or any of the nature in this kingdom". The knights did as he told them and spread the word about the trees and nature quickly. I nuzzled into Castiel happily and he said "Perhaps I should make it clear to the council that I am in charge, not them". I chuckled and replied "I think that would be a good idea". I did have a crown and it was designed to look like a leaf and flower crown. It was beautiful and it stayed on my head all the time. It was kinda funny actually. I never in my mind thought I'd be a queen. He made his way into the throne room and sat on the throne with me still in his arms. He groaned unhappily and I asked "Being a king harder than you thought Cas?". He replied "Don't even say a word. I know what you're going to say". I smirked straightening up and whispered in his ear "You mean like how I said ruling a kingdom is one of the hardest things ever and that you're stupid to think it's going to be easy. I think this entitles a I told you so". He pouted at me clearly unhappy and I smiled at him bemused before kissing his cheek. I asked "Would you like some help Hun?". He nodded and replied "if you know anything about the peoples issues then I'd gladly hear what you've got to say". I asked "What are they? I can help". He got a scroll out from the table next to him and gave it to me gladly. I read it and told him what the best thing was to do in that situation and we discussed how to approach each one of them carefully. A queen's job was to help their king run the kingdom and since I was a queen now then I might as well act like it. I asked "So when do I get my own throne?". He smiled and replied "Never, you're going to sit on my lap every time we're in here". I rolled my eyes and said "serious response please". He kissed me and replied "Fine, it's being made. You know each throne has to be unique to who'll be sitting on it. Your's is taking a long time because the carvings are very intricate". I smiled and asked "Are they really spending that much time on a place for me to sit?". He smirked before replying "You're the queen my love. Everything the people make for you has to be perfect, they don't want to disappoint you. The people really love you, almost as much as I do". I kissed him sweetly and said purring a little "Now I think you're just trying to make me purr. That's unfair". He smiled and nuzzled my nose gently while purring himself. He was a hopeless romantic and the affection he gave was intoxicating. I pecked his lips entwining our fingers and he just smiled at me. I was still in my pyjamas. I wore a vest top and shorts with my night robe which he made sure was silk. I liked my night robes to be silk since when I went into heat it made answering the door a lot easier on my scorching skin. Silk was cooler than other materials and so I only had to slip it on to answer the door. It was also lighter so it didn't weaken me to wear it for a long time. Only thing with my husband, he didn't like it when I wore a bra in bed so I didn't wear one. It was a compromise I made for him not to sleep naked. The maids got traumatized by it since Castiel was a kicker in bed and sometimes the covers would slip from him and well the maids came in every morning to give me my medicine since I was on medication for the whole ripping the baby out of me thing. I tried not to think about it too much since it upset me. He wasn't so happy about sleeping in pyjamas but he cheered up a little when I didn't wear a bra to bed. I'd wake up most mornings to him feeling my breasts. Castiel was a little sexually frustrated from how long he waited to have me. I mean we mated then I was made to forget him for two years. The poor man couldn't have me and everytime he went into a rut he was lost. I felt it was alright to let him have a little fun even if I wasn't ready for sex just yet. Ever since we lost the baby I couldn't stand the thought of sex. My heats lasted an hour at most and it wasn't a little pain increasing over the course of two weeks, it was unbearable pain from where my womb was damaged beyond repair. I felt embarrassed to let Castiel see me like that. I felt broken and I didn't want him to see that. He smiled and asked "Have you been in your pyjamas all day?". I chuckled and replied "Maybe, it's not my fault. I was stuck in that room all day so I couldn't be bothered to get changed". Dean came in with that usual smug ass smile on his face from being bumped up to second hand man for Castiel. He was no longer the prince that decided to stick around. He asked curiously with a smirk on his face "Cas what are you doing with your wife?". Castiel frowned and replied "We're talking. Anymore stupid questions?". I slapped his arm for being rude and he scowled at me but I gave him a stern look and he apologised. I smiled and said "Sorry, he's a little stressed". Dean laughed and replied "Looks like you've got him on a leash. Good to see he isn't getting too cocky about the whole king thing". Castiel growled a little and I glared at him, making him pipe down. It was just Dean, he should be taking it like he usually does. He was taking the whole king thing a little too seriously if you ask me. Dean was still his arrogant goofy best friend and he should be treated like that. Castiel asked me "Why are you mad at me? He's the one being rude". I replied "He's your best friend and you'll treat him as such. He's not below you and you know it. Stop acting like a spoiled prince and act like the man I married or I won't talk to you until you start showing people some respect". He sulked slightly and Dean just smiled at me. He chuckled and said "Yeah, I knew you'd give Cas a run for his money. Not so easy having a wife is it Cas?". Castiel pouted and replied "They're mean". I rolled my eyes and said "Oh stop being such a child. You're just saying that because you know I'm right". Suddenly someone started screaming in the courtyard and Castiel got up abruptly making me hold on for dear life as he ran out into the courtyard. I got down from him and walked over to the young woman having a fit on the floor by the tree fountain. The maid that screamed was frozen next to her. I knelt next to the young woman having what looked like a seizure and examined her to find a mark that looked like the start of Pointapocks. I said "Could someone go to the order and get my Frowd powder? it's bright blue, bring it to the castle infirmary". The frozen maid nodded and replied "Of course my queen", before running off to the order to get the powder that would save the young woman. I asked "Uhh Cas could you pick her up?". He shook his head and picked me up instead and said "Dean, could you pick the girl up?". Dean rolled his eyes and picked the poor maid girl up and said "Right, to the infirmary. Anyone gunna tell me what the girl is suffering from?". I replied leaning on Castiel "Pointapocks. It usually comes out around the time Winter is sprouting. The kingdom is about to start getting infested with pointapocks. We'll need to get more frowds or the healers won't be able to keep up with the demand to be cured". Dean nodded and asked "What are frowds?". I replied "Bright blue mushrooms. You find them in the forest. They grow near my cottage and near the fairy kingdom. We could ask Leyla to send us some". Castiel nodded and said "We'll organise that as soon as this girl is cured and we've told the people. They deserve to know about the disease about to plague us all". I nodded and replied "You'll address them lightly too. Actually no, I'll do it. You get way too blunt". Dean laughed and said "She's right dude, you'd get them worried. Y/n has a way of keeping people calm. It's kind of freaky". Castiel huffed a little and I just kissed him, making the sulky face he was wearing disappear. Winter was going to come soon and that scared me. I looked at the tree and saw just over half the leaves were gone. I took a deep breath steeling my emotions before we entered the infirmary. Pamela asked as Dean put the girl down "What happened?". I replied "pointapocks". Pamela said "I haven't got any frowd powder!". I replied "Relax, I've got some in the order and a maid should be coming any second with it". Pamela nodded and asked "How are you feeling?". I replied "Can't walk very far but I'm doing okay". She frowned at Castiel and said "If you keep carrying her then she'll never get the strength to walk again". He very reluctantly put me down and started sulking again. He sat down next to the girl and I rolled my eyes at the sight of him full on pouting and crossing his arms, having a tantrum like a toddler. He looked like his toy had been taken from him and there was promise of him not having it back. I sighed in defeat not being able to take those damn puppy dog eyes any longer and sat in his lap. He nuzzled and purred into my neck and I said "Damn you and your puppy dog eyes". He smiled and replied "I don't know what you're talking about". I scowled at him and said "You know exactly what I'm referring to, you toddler king". He kissed my cheek and the maid rushed in holding up the jar of powder. Pamela took it and prepared the medicine to treat the poor maid. Later that night after the announcement I just couldn't stop myself from being sad just knowing the inevitable was coming. The people didn't want to leave the kingdom and we were still trying to find a way to stop it. Castiel was stroking my sides gently as we laid in bed together and asked "Sweetheart, what's wrong?". I replied "Winter's going to come soon and I'm scared Cas. The people... it's going to be horrible". He kissed into my hair and said "I know sweetheart. We're trying our best". He had let Blueberries back into the castle today seeing I was getting lonely when he wasn't with me. She was currently lying at our feet but her head poked up when she heard my sadness. She climbed onto us and licked my face before nestling herself between Castiel and I. I chuckled seeing Castiel's jealous look. I asked "Why Cas you aren't jealous of Blueberries are you?". He pouted and replied "She stole my spot". I kissed him and replied "You can have it back before we go to sleep. She's just trying to cheer me up. She usually does this when I'm upset". Blueberries snuggled into me happily and I chuckled as she licked my face again trying to earn my undivided attention. Castiel got out of bed and pushed me into the middle of the bed before getting in behind me and kissing my neck affectionately trying to fight for my attention. I chuckled at how he was fighting for attention from a wolf. He could be real possessive at times and I found it adorable. I kissed his jaw purring happily at all the affection I was getting and he smiled happily having won. Blueberries licked his face and started nuzzling both of us showing she wasn't taking favourites. Castiel smiled even more and said "I like her. She can stay". I replied "Even if you didn't like her she'd still stay, my wolf remember. She stays". He held me close to him and growled playfully "My Omega. I suppose you can stay as well, I do find you rather beautiful". I rolled my eyes and replied "As if you'd get rid of me. You'd be lost without me and you know it". He nuzzled into me purring and said "Get some rest, we'll figure something out soon. I promise". I closed my eyes falling asleep to my Alpha husband humming to me softly.
