A City of Milk and Honey

Breathe.

T'Challa's Pov

Standing in the throne, looking out the window at the vast land in front of me, I think about the conversation that I had with my mother.

"T'Challa my child." She said coming into the nursery as I hold my son. I turn to her placing a finger to my lips as it had taken Nakia and I all night to put this boy to sleep.

"He is just like his grandfather," She whispers. "Always moving, never sleeping." A chuckle leaves her lips. It's silent for a bit before she speaks again. "You were not but 2 when I got pregnant with N'Jadaka. I was still a selfish young adult and didn't think of anyone but my self. Your father was furious when he found out.

Once N'Jadaka was born, I had no choice but to abandon him. I was to forget his existence and be the queen that Wakanda needed. To our people I took a trip for political reasons, but in reality I was with N'Jobu and N'Jadaka until I was forced to leave my son return here to Wakanda. I was mad at T'Chaka. I hated him so much and for so long, until about 22 years ago when your sister was conceived.

Honestly, I wished things were different and that N'Jada-" Before she could finish her sentence, he cut her off as he walked into the throne room. "Please call me Erik, N'Jadaka sounds weird coming from anyone other than Mina." He said. The tired look on his face showed his lack of sleep and food. I worried about him, this was no good for his health. "You need to eat." I said turning back to my son who remained asleep through our conversation.

"Don't worry about me, I've been through worse." He replied coming to stand next to mother and me. It was only now that I could see Erik for who he really was. A scared man crying out for help, I could truly understand Amina's words.

Erik's Pov

My heart was racing as I watched her walking toward me with nothing but a pair of lace panties and bra on. Her skin the smoothest shade of milk chocolate. Her brown eyes were pools of amber mixed with love and lust. I watched as her thigh jiggled a bit with each step, her breast bouncing and imprinting into my memory. What this woman did to me only Bast knew.

Straddling my thighs, I shifted a bit in my restraints feeling my briefs getting a bit tight and uncomfortable. "Don't move your highness." She said and the sultry tone of her voice only helped to rush the blood down to my dick. She started to grind on me, kissing on my neck, running her finger tips along my keloids and sending shivers down my spine.

Before I knew what was happening she was bouncing on my cock and moaning my name, while I did everything in my power to not break the restraints and bend her over. Her cries got louder and louder and I felt myself getting closer and closer to the edge. "Erik..." she said so softly that my cock twitched in her. "Erik?" She said again making it sound more like a question than anything.

"ERIK FOR THE LOVE OF WAKANDA WAKE UP...." She screamed, to which my eyes flew open and I was blinded by the light from my windows and the sight of Shuri over my head. I blinked a couple of times trying to adjust to my surroundings then looked to my sister. "Why are you in my room?" I asked her placing the covers over my bottom half.

Before she could say anything her kimoyo beads go off. "Shuri hurry up before she breaks anything else in the room and hurts herself." The room gets quiet and I look to Shuri waiting for any sound to leave her. When I dont hear anything I quickly put on clothes and run out the room .

Amina's Pov

Alone. That's how I felt. Trapped and unsafe and broken and suffocated and angry. I was alone. 'LET ME OUT'. I scream in my head as tears fall down my face. I wish a lot didn't happen in my life.

I wish I never met Lawrence. I wish I never lost track of Erik. I wish the king never killed our parents. I wish we never found them.

"I wish I never left Wakanda." The room freezes as I realize I said this out loud.

The deafening silence and the pain in the eyes looking upon me make me feel so vulnerable and weak.

I hated the pity that they took on me. I look down at the floor before taking in my surroundings and seeing all the broken glass and bent metal all around me. It took me a while to realize that I had spaced out until I felt like I was in someone's warm embrace. "Shhh don't cry, I'm here for you Min, I'm here."

Those words. They were my favorite words. They were an unbroken promise  that he always spoke of. He was here, with me.

Closing my eyes and returning his embrace, I melt into him, mentally and physically exhausted from everything that I have gone through in this life. Taking a deep breath is, Erik's scent calms me down, taking me into a euphoric high. Lulling me slowly back into a peaceful sleep.

Erik's Pov

"I'm taking her back to our room." I say standing up and walking out despite the protest from Shuri and Okoye. My head felt like it was under water.

I have never seen Amina look that lost, that scared, that... Alone. That look, I had seen it so many times in my mirror and to see it, in the eyes of the woman I love was the scariest thing I had ever seen before.

As I laid Min on the bed, her grip tightened on my shirt. I smile softly kissing her forehead before loosening her grip. A soft whimper leaves her lips as her hands searched around the bed for me. Chuckling softly I remove my shirt before going to lay next to her and pulling her into my arms causing her whimper to stop.

"I promise baby girl, I'm not going anywhere." With that I pull the covers over us and watch her the whole night just incase she has another episode. 'I'm right here baby.'

I honestly despise depression. I'm sorry I'm so late with the update guys. I'll try to work on the next chapter soon. I have been writing this since December... ugh.... hope all is well with everyone.
