Samantha felt a shiver run through her body and a lump lodged in her throat, but the desire to see with her own eyes what she heard was stronger and drove her to take the necessary steps to go down the stairs, only that, when she reached the bottom, her brother was waiting for her and Henry was already walking away, taking Regina by the arm, without a single glance at her."Are you ready?" Frederick asked as he joined her."Does it matter?" She questioned without looking at her brother. Samantha smiled at the couple passing by, pretending everything was fine, when in reality all she wanted was to run out and lock herself in her room."Samantha..."I'm ready to get on with all this, Your Majesty," she muttered without seeing him.Frederick clenched his fists at his sister's attitude; However, he was content with the fact that the features of his face did not reflect his dissatisfaction with the feast. The last thing he wanted was for suspicion to be aroused among the guests."Your Maj
Selene ended up on the side of the garden, away from the gaze of the guests, her stomach protested when she tried to calm down, but she couldn't and lost the battle. Gagging was heard and Frederick had to look back to be sure no one was following him."Selene," he called."I'm sorry, I can't contain myself," she muttered, her face red and her lips pale with vomit."Don't apologize, honey. It's my fault, I should have warned you not to be served wine tonight," he rebutted, kneeling down to be beside her."I couldn't even taste it, the smell was too much," he said, caressing her belly, which was left with discomfort and a horrible taste in her throat. The worst thing is that it has passed in front of many guests, I'm afraid they might be suspicious," Selene added worriedly.Frederick had completely forgotten about the guests, and if anyone had heard Selene's gagging, rumors would soon emerge and his fiancée's name would be in question, which he could not allow.The gentle footsteps on t
Frederick looked Selene in the eye and the happiness was overwhelming at the time, however, now what mattered most was knowing the care they needed to take from now on."What are the precautions to follow?" The king asked, for Selene was unable to say anything.The doctor did not take long to give the explanations and suggestions so that the couple could carry the pregnancy on the best possible terms, in addition, it was evident that the symptoms were going to be strong at least the first months and the future queen could not remain ill."I'll keep an eye on the whole process and please, any strange discomfort, don't hesitate to call me," the doctor asked and Selene nodded. It will be a healthy baby, My Lady, don't worry.Joy, euphoria and fear took hold of Selene at the confirmation of her suspicions, she could not expect any other kind of news when she had been with Frederick so many times, that she had lost count of the nights they gave themselves over to passion, without any preca
"Yes"Selene looked at Henry and took a step back. Not even in his strangest moments did he think Henry was capable of such a thing, but he had been wrong."I don't know how she can be so blind to you, Henry," she said with some difficulty."This is not my fault, Selene. If you have to find a culprit, look at the man next to you and you'll find him," he said with a slight smile.Selene clenched her hands into two fists, her jaw clenched, and a growl almost came out of her throat."Don't blame Frederick for your actions, Henry. You're not a gentleman like you've pretended to be all this time, you're not the man I thought and felt sorry for," he said, tapping at the Duke's pride.Henry's features changed as he heard Selene's words."Shame?" He asked, anger in his voice."Yes, you lived complaining about the mistreatment your cousin gave you and the humiliations to which you were subjected; However, I've been in this castle long enough to know that nothing you said was true. Frederick is
Frederick took Selene back in his arms and laid her gently on the bed, while she allowed herself to be done and consented."I miss you," the king whispered, his lips closing to his betrothed's.Selene laughed softly, but gladly received the kiss, which quickly intensified, until they had to move away for lack of air."You're a sorceress..." "My sorceress," Frederick professed, looking at Selene with eyes clouded with desire."I'll be whatever you want me to be, but only yours," Selene replied vehemently and generating an irrepressible desire in the king.The love that existed between them was a perfect mixture, not only were they full of passion and desire, something in which they understood each other perfectly, but the respect, affection and understanding that had been born in a short time, showed how strong the columns that would sustain their union for their entire lives were forming.The king's hands moved nimbly over the cords that held Selene's breasts under the corset, and und
A shiver ran through Samantha's body, she didn't know when the afternoon went away and she hadn't heard her mother and Selene come back from town, so she felt even more nervous alone with Henry, but something would have to do and sound convincing."I want to talk to you," he said, as bravely as he could."With me?"Samantha nodded her head in affirmation."You're getting married," she whispered. Her voice was choked, she was nervous, and she struggled not to betray herself. The brooch seemed to burn, but it was all part of his imagination.Henry looked at her and she felt like she was going to be discovered at any moment."You will, too." You're engaged to Borgia's heir, what's his name? He asked, taking two steps closer to Samantha."Marcus," he whispered."Marcus de Borja, I should have imagined that your brother and mother were not going to be quiet. Do you know that they are also forcing me to marry?Samantha swallowed, took a step back, bumping into the corner of the bed."Are th
The maiden wanted to continue wiping the corner of Samantha's lips, but the Queen prevented her from doing so, as she wanted to be the one to take care of her daughter and the maid did not resist."I'll put her up in bed," Marcus said, for the position they were in wasn't the most comfortable, and the rage was still flowing through his body, and he felt the need to talk to the king and look for Henry, even if he had to lift every stone in the kingdom until he found him."Thank you," replied the queen, as she followed the young man's footsteps closely.When Samantha's body touched the bed, her hands gripped Marcus' neck tighter, as if she feared she would be unprotected away from his arms."Your Highness, everything is fine," Marcus said softly, and with his free hand he released Samantha's hands from his neck."Marcus, can we talk?" Frederick asked, and the young man nodded. Mother, Selene, please stay with Samantha, we have things to do," he said seriously, and the two women nodded.
The doctor did not delay in arriving at the castle, he was guarded by two guards and he managed to think that he had been called to attend to some problem with Selene's pregnancy, however, everything became more strange, when inside the castle he was received by her, who looked without any distress."I'm sorry you had to come back so soon," Selene apologized, as soon as she saw him appear."My lady, it's no trouble, though I must admit that I don't understand why I'm here," he said in a low tone to the doctor."Her Majesty has summoned you, for we need you to check the princess—" She was attacked, and we don't know how serious her injuries may be," Selene said discreetly, hoping the servants wouldn't overhear."I understand, My Lady, please take me to where Your Highness is," the doctor asked and without further delay, Selene guided him up the stairs.Selene remained outside the chamber, giving privacy to the Queen, her daughter, and the doctor. She knew more than anyone how uncomfort
