I look up at Mare, what did she say? "Your?" I gulp. She nods, tears streaming down her face. I kneel, and put my forehead on her stomach. She just stands, rubbing circles on my back. She helps me up. Elane and Evangeline walk in at the worst time. "King Maven, Queen Mare. Is everything okay?" Elane asks, taking Evangeline. I wipe my tears away as fast as I poured them. Mare just walks away. "Mare is just, kind of sick." I stutter. "Oh, Your Majesty, shes pregnant?" Evangeline snips in. "How do you know?!" I growl. Mare just turns her head a bit. "Maven, I know what pregnancy looks like. She looks sick, no offense, but she looks a touch bigger." Evangeline prods. "I take no offense, Lady Evangeline." Mare sighs. "Now, please go." Mare is barely audible. They shuffle out quickly. "Mare, what's wrong?"
"I thought that when I'd get married, my family would be there. When I got pregnant, they would be there. They would be apart of my life." She still has tears running down her face.
"I know, but I can't trust them to not take you,"
"There would be guards."
"Newbloods could come Mare,"
"Maven, please." She begs.
"Once,"
"A month?" She prods.
"Guards have to be there, and it's only your mom, dad, sister and brothers," I sigh
"I need Farley."
"Why?"
"She is carrying my late brothers daughter. She is my family too Maven."
"Fine," I scoff. She gets up an walks off without me. I take a quicker passage to our room. I'm going to let Mare just defuse for a little. She gets mad quick. I hear Evangeline's sharp laugh down the hall. I turn my head. Mare's little giggle shuts down thought of danger. "So Mare, your going to ask?"
"Yea."
Mare walks in quick. "Hi Mavey!" She smiles. "Could, we talk?"
"Of course, come sit."
"I don't want to be pregnant Maven, I'm way to young," she sighs
"This may be the only chance,"
"But what about me!"
"Mare,"
"Maven," she pauses. "My family visits tomorrow. I'm going to my quarters."
"These our your quarters?"
"I'd like to sleep alone for a week."
It breaks my heart to see her walk out. She is mine.. I want her. I won her!

Mare's family finally takes a visit. I stand in the back, I don't want to interrupt it. Her brothers just glare at me, I don't mind. They can't hurt me. "Mare, you barely look pregnant," her mom laughs. "Well, I only found out two weeks ago!" Mare smiles, she actually looks happy, like a real happy. "Can I make an offer?" I pipe in. Her whole family shoots me a disgusted glare. "Go on Mavey," Mare stands, confused. Her dad looks revolted by the nick name. "You all could stay in the royale apartments, so you can be with Mare." I try my best to act genuine. Mare's face falls. "Now why would we ever want to stay in a kings stupid palace?!" Mare's father spits. "Maven, you know they wouldn't stay," Mare whispers. "I would," Her sister murmurs. "But, not if my family didnt." She turns. Mare hugs everyone, spending more time on Farley and her mother. "I love you mom,"
"I'm glad you came Farley,"
It all ends in a blur, and we finally eat lunch. Evangeline, Elane and Ptolemus join us. Ptolemus just has to show up, after she saw her brothers lover? "Queen Mare," Ptolemus nods. "Shut up and eat, I dont need your kindness. You surely didn't show any to my brother." Ptolemus just looks stunned. "Mare," I sigh. She just gets up and walks off. "You may not leave until everyone's done," a guard says
"I'm your Queen, I can make an order to behead you if I wanted," Mare snipes. The guard hurried to get out of her way. She just walks out. "I'm sorry for Mare's rudeness."
"She just saw her brothers girlfriend pregnant with his baby, and her family. She felt her brother missing, it was bound for her to snap." Elane states.

I guess I should have known. She can't handle the loss of her brother. She didn't have time to cope.
