King of My Heart - Bucky Barnes x Reader

Part 12

Two months later

Like every night, you joined Bucky and Peggy for supper but lately you weren't feeling well as the food approached the table your stomach made a turn and you excused yourself to get some fresh air. James stood up to follow you but Peggy gestured for him to stay. You walked straight to the garden as far away as possible from the dinner room.

"How are you feeling, my queen?" Peggy asked, a suspicious grin on her lips.

"The smell... I almost... Can't even say it without feeling sick again. Do you think it could be a serious illness? I don't want to scare James." you asked her genuine worried.

"Definitely not, (Y/N). May I tell you something? It's just a thought that crossed my mind lately."

"Of course, Peg. Anything." you took another deep breath, already feeling better.

"I think you're carrying a child, my queen." she smiled and you stared at her with wide eyes. Your hands instantly placed on your belly.

"Do you think so?"

"It's not the first time you feel indisposed during dinner, you're sleeping more and also you look radiant, (Y/N). The princess or prince it's on the way." she placed her hands on yours and you both smiled to each other. You felt tears blurry your vision as you couldn't contain the happiness inside you.

"Should I tell James?"

"Not yet. Let's go to the village first thing in the morning, I've heard of someone who can help us to be sure." she explained.

"Someone like a witch?" you whispered.

"Some people call her that but she's a healer. We can trust her, my queen."

You walked to the chambers trying your best to not show any emotions about your discovery since you could be wrong but you already felt different carrying a little piece of you and James, of your love.

"I'm sorry, my king. I left you alone during supper." you apologized but Bucky turned to look at you and smiled while taking your hand in his and kissing your knuckles.

"How are you feeling, my love? I was worried about you." you melted with his words.

"I'm feeling better. It's probably nothing to worry about." you caressed his cheek.

"I prepared you a bath." he said while his hands gently untied your corset.

"Would you join me?" you suggested and James placed his lips on yours.

"As you wish, my queen."
