Who's to say I didn't mean to get stabbed?

Irina's P.O.V.

I giggled as I slightly touched Lord Benard's arm. His face, already pink from drinking so much, turned a dark red. "I shouldn't say such things but you know you'll make a lovely queen someday." I feigned surprise at his words. "Me? A queen? Oh, don't put such ideas in my head, My Lord!" He slid his hand up and down my thigh and it took all my might not to recoil. "You're beautiful with a lovely grace that reminds me of your mother. Of course she's gone now, how sad for you not to meet her." Or she and my father are rotting in the prison you put them in. "I know.. I sometimes wonder if I'm like her." I looked down, putting my hands in my lap and looked at the man in front of me through my eyelashes. His eyes widened as he looked at me before clearing his throat,"Of course! She was an amazing woman.. And I mean the throne was rightfully yours to begin with." Bingo. I gasped softly,"It was?" The Lord of Laziness nodded slightly squeezing my thigh. "Why yes it was... I suppose if anything were to happen to Caspien you'd be next in line." I scrunched my face up in a thoughtful way,"What if I wanted to take the throne back?"

Benard stuttered as he just realized what he had done. "O-Of course you would need support of the people... And Nobles alike." I forced myself to look innocent while I scooted closer to him and slowly leaned forward. I could smell the alcohol on his mouth and tried not to gag. I softly whispered in his ear,"I hope I have your support, My Lord." He pulled back abruptly,"Of course, Your Highness! Anything!" I smiled. I had him right where I wanted him. "It's a silly thing, me dreaming of being a queen but it means so much to have your support." I gave him a shy smile and asked for his signature on a parchment Caspien left laying around.

"Well let us celebrate!" I poured us both a glass of whiskey and handed his drink to him as I took a small sip I watched him gulp it down. And with cold eyes I watched him clutch his chest and fall to the ground. I stood, brushed off my gown and got ready for the performance of the night.

Aria's P.O.V.

I groaned in frustration,"We're so close!" Daniel followed the tracks and gave me an annoyed look. "You can do this if you want to. But we both know you can't use your powers because they're currently unstable." I shrugged,"Still! Doesn't mean I can't nag you." I could hear him mutter something under his breath and I gave him a look. "C'mon! Let's get riding I know where to go now." Daniel hopped on his horse and I mounted mine. Together we rode off until we spotted fire in the distance. I rode faster, pushing my horse to ride faster. Stopping at the edge of a makeshift camp I strode right up to the guards.

My guards. They recognized me immediately and moved out my way. I passed through and watched as everyone I passed bow to me. And also the surprise as they noticed the bump of my stomach. I walked to the biggest tent and moved the flap. I saw Jacob laying in his cot and walked over to him, pulling his covers back, and smacking him hard in the face. Jacob hopped up and looked at me with wide eyes. He was still handsome, or maybe even sexy as I noticed a little stubble on his jaw. "Why would you just leave me like that!?" I yelled at him. He grinned at me and before I could smack him again, he pulled me to him and crushed his lips against mine. He held me tightly to him, and we stayed that way for what felt like forever. Tears ran down my face as all my unspoken emotions went into that long kiss. As we pulled away, he wiped my tears and whispered to me,"I love you."

I said it back and looked down at my stomach. I felt his gaze follow me and he slowly bent to touch my stomach and kiss it. "I'm going to be a dad..." He said in awe as he stared back at me. I nodded silently and we shared a smile. For the first time in months things felt perfect. "Get a room already!" A pillow flew through the air and hit the back of Jacob's head as he turned and glared at Ed. "Excuse you!" He growled. Edward rolled his eyes. "I don't want to see you two doing this. By the way I'm going to be an Uncle but I don't do babies." I placed my hands on my hips. "Jaz loves kids so be prepared." I warned him.
