Ronan’s POV“I am pregnant!”Fiona’s words kept circling my head as I ran frantically through the woods. I had to return to bed quickly last night when Freya mindlinked me to know where I was. I didn’t get the chance to think of what happened with Fiona. However, I was forced to get up earlier than usual to comb the woods since I couldn’t sleep with all of the thoughts in my head.She can’t possibly be pregnant and if she is it is definite as I could smell another faint innocent scent on her last night. Freya will have my head when she gets to know about it. Just when I thought I could escape my past actions. I keep getting dragged into the mud deeper.
Author’s POVFreya’s eyes darted back and forth as she tried to take in Ronan’s words. “What do you mean by that?”Ronan exhaled. “I got someone pregnant.”Her lashes fluttered causing her to shift into the bed frame. Bedazzled, she got up quietly to put on her dress. Freya pinched herself to be sure she wasn’t dreaming. To think she had offered Ronan an alternative to their childlessness a while back and he had blatantly refused making promises to her to never lay with anyone else. She tried to control the excessive shaking of her hands but she couldn’t.Ronan shifted uncomfortably. “Freya…..”She glared at him with tear-laced eyes. “What do you have to say? Is this your way of mocking me, Ronan? What did I ever do to you? If you were so bothered about not having an heir why did you pretend all through the years and act like a saint that you are not?”He shook his head quickly feeling hurt by her words. “I promise you, my love, it's not what you think. I would never intentionally hur
Ronan’s POVI watched Freya closely as she played with her meal. Not even half of it is gone. She has never been a picky eater. However, that is what I have had to watch for the past few days now to my frustration. She is either doing it to remind me of my actions by being petty or her appetite is really not there. Both ways I am guilty of everything. It's my fault she isn’t acting like herself.“My love, why aren’t you eating?” I asked.She flared her nose at me with intense hurt in her eyes. Without a word, she took a loud gulp of water and left me at the table. The guards and maids in place kept their heads bowed pretending not to see what just happened. I am sure loads of rumors about our disagreements will spread out soon.None of that bothers me though. I am more concerned about what becomes of my fate today. I can no longer stand Freya’s cold attitude towards me. I want my attentive and loving queen back. With the help of Timon, we were able to decide on what to do with Fiona’s
Fiona’s POV“I know how hard-working you are, Fiona. But that doesn’t mean I would put my business at risk for you. You are not in good shape to do the work. I can’t lose any daily customers because you are either too tired or dragging behind with the orders. Please leave. You can return after you have put to bed.” Basi said to me.I stood with my shoulders slouched and my legs aching badly from the bad posture. There was no need for him to talk nicely but I guess he just had to. My bump is growing and many people are beginning to notice even when I try my best to hide it by sucking in my belly. The showing aside, it seems like my strength is draining away each passing day. I can’t seem to do the things I would usually do with ease anymore.I raised my teary eyes to look at him. “Please, Basi. I have nowhere else to go. I promise to do better from now on.”Basi shook his head stubbornly, “You said that last month, and now you have gotten worse from that time. To compensate you I woul
Ronan’s POVIt felt like forever since Fiona chose to walk out on me without accepting to hand over the child. I was hurt by her decision and after a while, I thought it was good for my relationship with Freya. However, the thought of my first-ever fruit being away from me made my heart ache every day. I couldn’t tell my thoughts to anyone except Dion.This was why it came as a shock and delight to me at the same time when Fiona finally reached out to say she would be the child bearer. I know it must have been a very hard decision for her to make before coming to that resolution. I had sent the guard from the last time to bring her back to the palace and ensure she was comfortable.There is a small house hidden away from the main building. No one will notice her presence. I already scrutinized a trustworthy maid with the help of Timon since Freya wanted nothing to do with it. I have a lot to tell Fiona. I realized all thanks to Dion and Timon that I might have come off too harsh on he
Fiona’s POVMy tears soaked the bed sheet and for a moment I felt regretful that I didn't talk to King Ronan right. He hasn't done anything wrong to me. But that doesn’t make it any easier to deal with. I sat up folding my legs into my chest. I glanced around the room and as large as it was, it felt choking.I have never felt much loneliness after my parent's death. I always had my best friend and lover around me. After they betrayed me there was Chan whom I thought was going to be my companion. Now that he turned out to be a king, I would be delusional to think he would want anything to do with me.I wiped at the tears rolling down my face. I can’t wait for all of this to be over and I get to make good use of my life. My hand rubbed at my belly slowly. There is nothing fanciful about my life. Here I am waiting to pop out my child and have him or her traded off. I can’t even imagine what would become of my emotions after it is all over.“Let’s wait until then. For now, focus on birthi
Ronan’s POVIf the earth does have some kind of life in it. It would be in extreme pain I am sure. The way I thumped on it as I ran recklessly through the woods. That would be a lot of body ache. I couldn’t stop thinking about Fiona, at first when I saw her, and the emotion of desire stirred inside me. I thought it was just because of the moment and the rising tension between us.However, I felt repelled when I woke up in the middle of the night from a wet dream about Fiona. My dick was semi-hard when I got up. Freya was sleeping soundly and I had to come out here to burn whatever thoughts might be creeping up my mind. As hard as I tried my insides churned and my dick feels like it would chop off if I don’t get it to swim in a pot of honey this instant.Like a maniac, I ran back to my chambers panting heavily when I entered. My eyes roamed Freya’s body hungrily in her transparent nightgown. Jumping onto the bed, I tore it off her body instantly. She woke up with a loud gasp when I spr
Ronan’s POV “I have been searching around for you. Didn’t realize you were here.” I said to Freya, placing a kiss on her shoulder. She glanced up at me with a light smile. “I just thought to sit out here and enjoy the evening air.” “It's nice out here,” I mumbled, motioning to the guards and maids to move farther away from us. I sat next to her just observing her features. This is the quietest she has been since I have known her. It just shows how much is on her mind. We still haven’t gotten around the situation we are in at the moment. But I still think there is a need for me to reassure her. “If you keep staring at me like that, you will end up burning a hole in the side of my head.” Freya mused, slapping the book in her hand shut. I chuckled awkwardly. “Don’t be like that, my love. You know how much I love to look at you. I have just been curious to know how you are doing.” I held her gaze lowering my voice. “About Fiona?” “I see you have met her.” “Couldn’t resist. She is
