Rest In Peace Chadwick. Never in a million years did I think I'd be continuing this book in his honor. I hope he knew how much we all admired him. He changed cinema. He changed movies. I wish we had him longer but I'm glad we gave him his flowers before he left. Let's continue to do so.

SIDE NOTE : Nakia is no longer Azari's god mother. I am writing that out and will go back to edit it out later. I also have revamped this chapter. It may seem familiar but it's been changed. I suggest a reread. The events in this chapter take place in during the "Dropdead pt.3" chapter in Dysfunction.

T'challa POV *

" We have been blessed today ! ", The news broadcaster yelled into the television. The lady next to him could barely contain her laughter. The man next to her stood up, fanning himself with one hand on his hip.

" Look at this magnificence! ", the screen showed a picture of Harper holding a sleeping Azari in a swaddle. Her hair cascaded down her back as she posed for the magazine. The print " New Mom"Queen Harper Udaku on becoming a new mother and raising the Heir to the throne ). She looked absolutely gorgeous on the magazine cover. Azari has just turned 3  1/2 months old. Things were slowly getting easier for us as he settled into a better sleeping routine. Harper was getting more rest and so was I. After some extensive blood work Azari was in fact very different from most people...and that was okay. We'd love him all the same powers or not. What mattered was keeping him safe. The scientists (with the help of shuri) were able to formulate drops for Azari that would drastically reduce his powers almost to nothing until he was a bit older. 

" She is truly stunning and oh how she has grown! And look at his little face...so precious ", the female anchor beamed.

" This was truly worth the wait. In the article The queen describes her pregnancy as the m—", I cut the television off. I look behind myself smelling her perfume float into the room . Harper stood behind me with a hand hip.

" I thought you couldn't stand it when people talked about me Kumkani ", she walked over to me and slyly pushed herself into my lap.

" Well our son was on the cover. I had to make sure they didn't say an—", she cut me off with a kiss to my mouth. She hummed into it as I dug my hands into her scalp and deepened the kiss.

" Why is it that we always go long periods of time without touching ? Even before Azari ? ", she asked.

" Ruling a country most likely ? ", I chuckled, tracing the side of her mouth.

" I don't like that..", she huffs.

" Trust me..if I could trade in being King to be at your disposal all day I woul-actually I have", I joke. She didn't laugh with me. Instead her eyes were laced with the same desire as they were when they walked in. Her mouth found my ear. She left soft fluttery kisses on it before she sighed in frustration and laid her head on my chest, curling up into a ball on my lap where she fit.

" How is work ? ", she looked up at me with those big eyes.

" It's work...how are you ? ", I asked her.

" Managing. And before you ask he's down for his nap after battling with him for over an hour ", she smiled.

" He's getting stronger. He's onto us ", I warn.

" Unfortunately ", she chuckled.

My eyes wonder to the paper work on my desk. It was no less than 10 minutes ago that I got some earth shaking news. I tried my best to hide it but her long glances signaled she knew something wasn't right.
