Unexpected

Chapter One

I awaited the return of Nyssa by reading a book in my room. After sometime I heard footsteps approaching so I put my book down. The door opened and in came Nyssa. I smiled at her but then I noticed the look in her eyes and I hugged her.

As soon as I had my arms around her she let it all out. She held onto me as if I were the only thing keeping her here, which I sort of was seeing as I was supporting most of her weight. I gently lead her to the bed so she'd be more comfortable. It took her some time to calm down her sobs. Once she was finished though I enquired about her sadness.

"What saddens you little tiger?" I stroke her hair as she lays on my lap.

"She's dead." She doesn't have to say a name for me to know who she speaks of.

"Who was the one who killed her?"

"Merlyn." she says with calm rage.

"And so he shall pay with his life." I say with a deadly voice.

"Father will not allow it. He says Merlyn will stand trial for breaking the code."

"Do not worry little tiger. We will have justice. One way or another."

"Thank you." she sits up and dries her cheeks. And at that moment Ra's enters the room. He stares at us with an unreadable expression. Nyssa stands, "I should leave you two alone. Goodbye lion." "Goodbye little tiger."

Once she leaves I stand and walk up to Ra's. I smile at him and wrap my arms around his neck. I headbutt him, breaking his nose. I turn from him and return to reading my book.

"Y/N. Why did you do that?" I hear the crack of his nose signalling he's popped it in place.

"Because of your stupidity."

"And what have I done this time that angers you so?" He sits across from me.

"Will you not seek justice for Sara's death? For her murder?" I put my book down and look at him.

"So she told you. Did she also tell you that he will stand trial?"

"For violating the code not for murdering one of our own! Where is the justice in that?" By now I'm pacing the room. Ra's looks at me with a hint of amusement in his eyes.

"She was never truly one of our own." "She went through the same training we all went through! She was one of us. SHE WAS NYSSA'S INTENDED!" I yell at him.

He stares at me with wide eyes. Taking in what I just told him.

"She would've been our daughter in law! Nyssa would have finally known true happiness. She has the right to seek justice for her intended. (I take his hand and kneel before him) My love, please, let Nyssa do this. Do not deny her this, please."

"I have already sent out the assassins. I cannot change this, not even for my own blood." I let go of his hand and walk over to the door. I turn and look him right in his eye...

"Then I, Y/N al Ghul, vow to seek the justice you have denied your daughter. If I fail to do so may I be punished accordingly by Nyssa al Ghul." I leave before he can say anything.

I spend the next few weeks in my personal room. Strangely I had been waking up sick almost each morning. Today though I decided to head to one of our healer's.

She was cleaning up her equipment before turning her attention to me.

"When was the last time you bled?" I look at her with a confused face. And then realization hits me. I'm pregnant. I thank the healer before going to find Nyssa.

I couldn't find her in her usual spots so reluctantly I go to find Ra's. He's in the training area. Sparring with some of the new recruits.

"Where is Nyssa?" I know he can here me just fine despite all the noise.

"I sent her out on a mission." He doesn't stop what he's doing.

"And what mission would that be?" "One that does not concern you."

"As your wife everything you do or don't do concerns me." I say before leaving back to my room.

Third Person POV

Ra's was still training when Nyssa and Sarab came into the room.

"Father. (She looks around before stepping in.) It's nearly time."

"Mr. Queen has not yet to presented the guilty?" Nyssa shakes her head. "Perhaps he believes our threats are empty. We must correct that belief."

He points his bloody sword at Sarab. "Return to Starling City. Be merciless. Teach Oliver Queen we only ask but once."

Reader's POV

I got bored in my room so I decided to go to the kitchens and do some baking. I wasn't paying attention to where I was going so it came to no surprise when I ran into someone. I looked up too see Nyssa.

"You really should watch where you're going." She says with a smirk playing on her lips.

"Then it's a good thing it was you I ran into." I giggle. "Now that you are here I have something to tell you. Come join me." She allows me to lead her to the kitchens. I send everyone out so we could get some privacy. I gather everything I need to make double chocolate chip cookies.

"What is it you needed to tell me?" Nyssa takes a seat at the table by the wall.

"There's no way to say this without just saying it plain and simple. Okay, uhm, I-I'm pregnant." I turn to look at her reaction. She sits there staring at me with wide eyes and her mouth slightly opened.

She gathers herself and asks "does father know?" "No. I haven't told him yet. I wanted to tell you first. By the way where did you go? Ra's wouldn't tell me." She looked away from me.

"When do you plan on telling him that you are expecting a child?"

"Nyssa. Don't change the subject. Where did you go?" Before she can answer Ra's enters the kitchen. "What are you two talking about?"

Nyssa looks to me and then says, "Y/N has something important to tell you." Then she leaves us.

"What did you need to tell me that's so important?" He walks over to me and pops a chocolate chip in his mouth.

I continue mixing the cookie batter, ignoring his question. "Y/N. What did you need to tell me?" I just keep mixing.

He comes closer and takes my hands from the batter. "My love, do not ignore me. Tell me what Nyssa was talking about."

"I, uh, I-I um went to the healer's this morning an-" "Are you hurt? Sick?"

"Let me finish please. Everything was fine but there was something she asked me about that got me thinking and I didn't know how to tell you so I told Nyssa first because I thought she could help me in telling you just in case you did something that yo-" I felt a pair of lips on my own and then they pulled back. I looked at Ra's questioningly.

"You were rambling again." He says with a small smile.

I take a deep breath. "Right well. I'm two months pregnant." He has the same look Nyssa had. It's amazing how much these two have in common.

"Are you- When- And you- my reaction-" I barely understood what he was saying. He finally gathered his thoughts. "Why did you hesitate to tell me first?"

"Well, I was afraid of how you'd react. What if you didn't want anymore children? What if you didn't want a child with me? What if-" He shut me up with a passionate kiss. When we pulled apart he told me, "I would never turn away a child. Especially one that is my own. I love you Y/N."
