Epilogue
×××Amity groaned as the little heathen ran from her and his father, giggling as he hid behind and under things.
"Allister! Get over here now!" She said sternly, the little boy cringed and stepped out from underneath the table, looking at his mother with those doe-like green eyes. Seth withheld a smirk as the boy listened to his mother, fearfully. He walked over and picked the boy up, propping him on his hip.
"Papa, mama mad." Allister made a mean face, then hid when Amity sent him a stern glare. Seth laughed and leaned over, kissing his wife thoughtfully and placing one hand on her slightly protruding stomach.
"Mama is just stressed." Seth reassured once he pulled away from her. "Now, mama is going to go rest for a bit and papa is going to give you a bath."
"And grandpapa is going to steal you from papa to tickle you!" The former king of Roswen came up out of nowhere and stole Allister right from Seth's arms. He began tickling his grandson, while the three year old giggled and squirmed in his arms.
"Harold, stop, don't you see they're trying to calm the child down. You're just winding him back up!" Evelyn scolded, taking the child from him and handing him back to Seth.
"Oh, Evie, I'm just playing." He said, holding her and rocking them back and forth. The old woman smiled and patted his cheek.
"I know, I know." She smiled and looked to Amity. "Sweetheart, go lie down, you look exhausted."
Amity nodded, wiping a hand across her forehead. "I am, I'll see you all in the morning." She kissed Seth's cheek and then parted ways with everyone. Seth was next, excusing himself so that he could bathe his son.
Allister laughed and splashed around in the tub, blowing bubbles in his father's face, making his father laugh too. Allister stopped for a moment, and looked up at his father curiously.
"Is mama gonna have a baby?" He asked. Seth nodded his head, rinsing the soap from Allister's hair.
"Yes she is, you're going to be a big brother to a little brother or sister." He explained, picking Allister up out of the bath and drying him off. Allister stood there, letting his father dry and dress him for bed.
"So she will love the new baby more than me?" He pouted. Seth's eyes widened and he shook his head.
"No Al, never. Mama and I will love the new baby just as much as we love you!" He said, lifting his son up and carrying him into his and Amity's room. Amity was lying on the bed, propped up reading a book. Seth smiled, she had taken to reading once she had gotten better at it. He barely ever saw her without a book in her hand anymore. She noticed them come into the room and held out her hands for her son. Allister crawled across the bed and roughly landed in his mother's awaiting embrace. He snuggled into her, holding her back.
"I love you mama." Allister said, he kissed her cheek.
"I love you too Al, I love you very much." She said, kissing all over his face, making him giggle. She tapped his butt, "Now, off to bed with you. I'll see you in the morning."
"Goodnight mama," Allister went over and hugged his father. "goodnight papa."
Seth kissed the top of his son's head. "Goodnight Al. See you in the morning."
Allister bounced off to bed, leaving Seth and Amity alone for the first time today. Seth undressed and joined his wife in bed, kissing her shoulder he waited for her greeting. But it was too late, she had already engrossed herself in her book to be bothered with Seth. He huffed and gripped the book in his hand, tossing it across the room.
"Seth!" She looked over at him angrily. "Why would you-" He cut her short by pressing his mouth to hers. She kissed him back immediately, forgetting about the book incident.
Seth pulled away first. "Hello Darling." He kissed her cheek and pulled her soft body into his arms.
"Good evening, My Prince."
"I'm king now." He said, brushing her hair back. He had become king shortly after their wedding. But in the past three years, she never once let up on calling him her prince. "So you should really call me, "My King."
Amity frowned. "But you're not My King, you're My Prince, you'll always be My Prince."
Seth pressed his mouth against hers. "I love you Amity."
"I love you as well." His hands traveled down to her waist, but she stopped him with the same stern look she had given their son. "I'm already with child Seth."
He grinned. "I know, this time is just for fun." He smirked tucking her body underneath his and loving her all through the night.
So it's finished! I could probably add more here, but I like how it ended. SO tell me what you think and if you have any suggestions let me know. A story of Allister could happen and a short story of Harold and Evelyn is bound to happen as well. Thank you so much for reading it means a lot. Let me know what you thought of the story. Thanks!
