29. WE ARE BOTH SCREWED

Author's POV

Tension was so thick you could cut it with a knife. Elijah was still angry with Marcus for the kiss. Marcus was mad almost got himself killed. They were waiting for the queen to come so they could talk.
The car that almost hit Elijah was carrying Christian and Dion, who had just arrived back home from their long trip.
The driver was able to stop the car before reaching Elijah who had immediately been carried out of the way of the car by Marcus.

The King and Queen were shocked by the abrupt stop. Christian got out and pulled out the driver for an explanation while Dion saw his son and Elijah and decided to see what was going on with them.
They seemed to be in an argument as Marcus held Elijah in place.
"What the hell Eli! You could have gotten hurt or even worse," Marcus lashed out.
"Like you care. Just leave me alone," Elijah said struggling to get loose.
"Of course, I care and..."
"If you cared you wouldn't be going around kissing other people while I'm pregnant with your child," Elijah lashed out in anger.

Dion's POV

"Pregnant?" I immediately asked in shock.
"Mom," said Marcus in shock as he let go of Elijah who's eyes looked like they were about to pop out.
"What's going on?" Christian asked as he stood next to me and looked at the two young men before us.
"Nothing my love. These two were just going out for a walk. Elijah must have been in a rush and almost got hit by the car," I explained and the pair was even more shocked with my reaction but tried not to show it.
"Oh no. Elijah are you alright. Did you get hurt?" Christian asked with concern. I realized he had a soft spot for Elijah even before I got to meet him.
Elijah was very beautiful and respectful to us.
"I'm...I'm fine...no... scratch," he stuttered nervously.

I was able to convince my husband to go ahead, before I told Elijah and Marcus to go and wait for me in the library.
I followed Christian as I thought about what I had heard today. Elijah was pregnant with Marcus' child.

Author's POV

"Eli..."
"No, Marcus. I'm not falling for your crap. Because of you, now we are both screwed," Elijah lashed out.
"If you had kept your voice down and your emotions in check then we wouldn't have been found out." But Marcus immediately regretted his words at the look Elijah gave him.
"If you hadn't kissed Sienna in the first place then I wouldn't have a reason to run off, you heartless bastard. It's not my fault these pregnancy hormones make me so damn emotional. If you have forgotten you're the one that made me pregnant. Blame your super sperm you horndog." Elijah was on the verge of tears and it broke Marcus's heart that he made him like that.

"Baby, I'm sorry. I truly am, but you have to believe me. I didn't kiss her, she kissed me," Marcus begged as he shuffled closer to Elijah.
"You expect me to believe that bullshit. Do I look like a fuxken idiot to you?! I saw you lean into that kiss. You met her halfway." Elijah couldn't hold the tears and let them flowing. Revealing how broken he was about the kiss.
"She asked me to move closer because she needed to say something because she couldn't tell me out loud. I had no idea she was going to kiss me," Marcus said as he pulled Elijah onto his lap.

Elijah tried to get out of his hold as he sobbed.
"Eli, I really love you and no one else. I only want you. I'm sorry I shouldn't have let the kiss happen but I promise you it meant nothing. It was a mistake which she forced on me. You are the only one I see, Eli. I love you, baby," Marcus said and Elijah finally held onto him.
"Promise?" Elijah said between sobs.
"I promise, baby. It's just me and you and our little one," Marcus said and Elijah couldn't help but laugh.
"I love you," Elijah said and they kissed.

Dion smiled as he heard their conversation. He didn't mean to but when he got to the library they were still arguing and he decided to let them sort themselves before he came in to talk.
Marcus was in love with Elijah and it seemed Elijah loved him too.
Enough with the smiles. It was time to get serious. He took a deep breath before making his presence known.
He wanted to make sure Christian was fast asleep before he came to deal with the pair. The king was exhausted and so it didn't take time for him to knock out.
"I will ask questions and I need you both to answer them truthfully," Dion said as soon as he sat in front of them and the young men nodded in response.

Dion's POV

"Is it true that you are pregnant Elijah?" I asked.
"Yes," the little petite male replied with his eyes to the ground.
"How far along are you?"
"Three weeks."
"Do you have proof for this claim?"
"Yes," he said as he passed me the sonogram image.
I bit back a smile as I looked at the image. It reminded me of the time I found out I was pregnant with Marcus.
He was just a small round dot in an image but I loved him with all my heart.
Now, he was a grown man and I was looking at the image of my grandbaby. Oh my gosh! I was going to be a grandmother.
Relax, Dion. Keep your game face on.

"How do I know this is really Marcus's child?" I asked.
"I only had sex with Marcus," he said looking a bit offended.
"Elijah, you haven't even been here for a full month. This would mean you two had sex the day you met," I said.
"I know it sounds crazy, Mom. But I met Elijah before he came here. It was love at first sight but I thought I would never see him again and so we had sex. We were both shocked when met again here but we couldn't help but fall in love. It was irresponsible, I know, and now I got Eli pregnant but I love him mom and I don't want to be with another person," Marcus said and I could see Elijah smile even though he tried to hide it.
Young love. I could see they were both genuine and I was happy Marcus had found someone to love.
I was afraid he would just make a choice to make us happy but with Elijah he was genuinely happy.

"I understand but it doesn't change the fact that this will complicate a lot of things. You still have about a month before you announce your decision which I can see has already been made. We will tell your father then. He will kill you for being irresponsible if we tell him now," I said and they both looked relieved.
"I'm sorry for being a burden, Your Highness," Elijah said keeping his head down but I sat next to him and hugged him.
"From now on call me Mom. You're my future son in law and you are already carrying my grandchildren. My son made a great choice. Your baby is going to be the most beautiful. If you need anything you come to me. We need to take care of that little prince in you. If Marcus stresses you again, tell me and I will set him straight. Oh my gosh, I'm so excited!" I went on and on.
Elijah smiled and soon I took him to the doctor for a full check up to make sure everything was in order.

Sienna's POV

After the kiss I shared with Marcus I was happy.
"You snake." Ethanael gave me the stink eye before slamming my door shut.
I didn't care. We had finally kissed and I bet I put a huge dent in their relationship but I spoke too soon.
I was on my way to the kitchen when I saw the Queen speaking happily with Elijah as they held hands before heading outside.

WHAT THE HELL!

First, it was Marcus. Then his friends and now he even had the queen under his spell of deception.
OH HELL NO.
I'M TIRED OF CHILD'S PLAY. THIS MEANS WAR.
