The Hidden Future (Book Two)

The Unseen

Rosalind

She's coming, she's come! Oh God Nathen! It hurts. Get her out!

I cry as the pain grows but Nathen just picks me up and quickly takes me to our private delivery room where the doctor waits patiently.

I see your ready to deliver. How about we have this baby and get back to this war shall we...

I sit straight up at this point looking down at Nathen who looks up at me startled awake by my sudden jolt.

Are you okay sugar?

I sit there clearing my head before I answer. I don't want to think about having more children. It hurts to much knowing it'll never happen.

I'm fine.

Are you sure?

Yes, I'm okay honey.

But you're shaking.

I just had bad dream. I'm fine. God stop harassing me.

I get out of bed now getting irritated so I go to the restroom leaving him laying there. I wasn't trying to snap at him but I said I was fine so he should leave it alone. Damn...

Knock, knock, knock...

Rosa?

Leave it alone Nathen.

I don't want to fight with you sugar. I just want you to know I'm here if you need me.

I shake my head knowing he's only trying to help but I just can't give in right now.

I know you are. I'll be back in a few minutes.

I hear his mind as he goes back to bed confused but I'm irritated so I take another shower trying to relax but I start to feel jittery like I haven't feed in a week so I go feed but the feeling grows stronger and stronger until I finally return to bed. Nathen lays there sleeping as I strip down to my panties and curl up next to him but the jittery feeling magnifies as our skin touches. He jerks and I smile now knowing the cause of my jitteriness.

Feeling better sugar?

I would if you were inside me.

He leans up looking down at me a crooked smirk on his face.

Now that I can do.

He gladly accepts pulling me into a kiss no questions asked. I'm sure there'll be questions later but for now he's eager to please and I'm glad for that. After we have our fun we head out to find the kids.

Nathen honey? We should hire some more guards. The kingdom is going to need the extra protection. Plus we weren't really expecting our family to grow up so quickly.

Yeah, I guess we never really know what the future holds. We'll not unless you see it if course...

Ha, ha very funny.

What? The future is hidden from the rest of us. Only you and a select few others get to see it.

Yeah I guess but we still need to protect everyone regardless.

Yeah I know. I'll have the boys handle it. They need something to do that makes them feel important.

I know he's wanting to include the boys in important decisions but this is a task we must do ourselves. I've seen it so I deny his suggestion.

I'm sorry honey this isn't something the boys or Scarlett get to handle. We must choose our guards. These are the men and women we are to swear in to protect us should our walls be breached.
