I turned to leave Jessica not wanting to meet her eyes any longer in fear that I might just give in. I was doing this for us, I was going into battle to honor our people, I was going into battle so that when I would come out victorious, she would be proud of me.
I took my spot as the fight was to begin, it was a member of Trishanakru who dared to challenge Azgeda. Walking up to my opponent, I tried to remain calm. Only meters apart...the signal horn was blown.
Instinct took over and charged at him with great force and technique, my sword was swung with fluidity as I was able to create a gash in my opponent's leg. Another one, and then another one. My confidence was at an all time high as I saw him bleeding. Possibly too high. Next thing I knew, it was his turn to cause me to bleed, stabbing a spear on my side and pulling it right out only to stab me yet again. I could taste blood in my mouth as I dropped to my knees, feeling like I could no longer continue.
I could see Jessica's face standing next to my mother by the throne, her face filled with fear as she watched. From the corner of my eye I could see my opponent sneaking up on me and when he was close enough I used all my power to stand up and push my sword through his heart for an instant death. The Azgedan crowd cheered as did Jessica, her face now full of relief.
After the duel came celebration, all of Azgeda basked in my win. As the night dwindled down, Jessica and I made way to our room. Taking off my clothes I climbed into bed with only my undergarments as Jessica switched into a night slip.
"Love?" I called out to her as she was in the restroom.
After a few seconds she reappeared and climbed her way onto the bed. She snuggled her way into my arms so that her head was tucked under my chin. Her warm hands on my chest and my arms wrapped around her body. "Yes, my prince?" She finally answered.
"I love you."
She looked up at me, her big brown eyes glistening, "I love you more."
We lay there in comfortable silence until she spoke again, "Roan?"
"Yes, my love?"
"If we were to have a child what would you name it?"
"Well if it was a girl, I've always had a liking of the name Anastasia. But if it was a boy...Rover. Why do you ask?"
"Oh nothing. I just remembered that you promised me babies before you went into battle."
"Ohh..?" A switch clicked in both my heads (LOL) as I climbed on top of Jessica. "You want babies huh?" She giggled as I took her hands in mine and placed them over her head. Her nose slightly wrinkled from laughing, her eyes slightly closed and her smile going from ear to ear. She was beautiful and mine.
I lowered my lips to her collarbone, peppering kisses all over her neck and up to her lips. I could feel her moving under me, making it harder and harder for me to breathe. I spoke low and deep as I just barely growled in her ears, "why don't we make some babies tonight then, love." She moaned with delight and that was my cue to get down to business.
Taking the hem of her slip dress I began raising it higher and higher on her body, just as I was about to remove it... *KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK*
"Oh for the love of the first commander! WHAAAAT?!" I pulled Jessica's dress back down and threw on a robe. Walking to door I cracked it open.
"Your highness, Queen Nia requests your presence."
"Now?" I asked slightly irritated.
"Yes your highness."
"Ok I'll be right there." I closed the door and changed into my casual Azgedan clothes and walked over to Jessica. "Looks like we're not making babies tonight, my love. My mother requests my presence for who knows what. Get some sleep ok? Don't wait up for me."
"Ok, my prince. I love you."
"I love you. Sweet dreams." With that said I made my way through the castle to find the queen.
