Princess Aurelia of Northlaye lives in constant fear of her father King Edric. His sudden demand of her betrothal to prince Mallon of Ailingdale against her will is nothing compared to the cold, hard and brutal way his constant treatment is of her and the people of his own kingdom. Aurelia secretly tries to help her people from starvation and neglect in hopes her father will never find out. With her late mother no longer around to guide her, Aurelia must fight against her fear with her true confidant, the house servant Maude. A new and unlikely friendship and romance has Aurelia clutching to the hope things can get better, that is until King Edric hits her with his most ruthless blow of all. Will Aurelia keep her courage through all she has to face? or will her stone cold father keep her down for good?

Rule of a ruthless King Chapter 37 - The line of heirs.
Four years later. I held firmly onto the bedpost as Maude laced the back of my dress. I reached for another piece of dry, cooked bread that she had advised might help with my sickness. My little bump was starting to show now under my dress, but this time I was more excited than I had been when I was withchild with Helena and she was just as excited as me and Mallon at the thought of her having a baby brother or sister. “Feeling any better my dear?” Maude asked as she finished the last bit of my dress. “Umm, a little, but it comes and goes”. “Well remember, just little nibbles dear”. She took a seat in one of the cushioned chairs and I took the one opposite her. Helena was with Lillian and her son Thomas, he was one now and every day he would want to follow Helena and she adored him and his little giggles, every time she did a silly dance or put on a puppet play for him. We couldn’t wait for her to be a big sister, we could see already she’d take the role seriously. So while Helen

Ten months later.In between trying to walk and crawl, Helena was trying to waddle across the throne room before sinking to her knees again after a few unsteady steps. Mallon swooped in behind her, clapping his hands and opening up his arms, he tried to encourage her to stand again and walk towards him. “seeing as she loves food so much, perhaps we should bribe her into walking”. He chuckled and I laughed with him.“Before you know it, she’ll be running circles around you and you won’t be able to keep up with her!“. I joked with him.“Yes, she’s definitely going to keep us chasing after her that’s for sure!”Just then Maude came in and straight away she rushed over to Helena and picked her up, giving her a hug. “Are you trying to walk, little princess? Don’t you just look positively beautiful today. You’re looking more and more just like your mother when she was a baby.” She coo’d at Helena.“She will be a beauty indeed, like her mother and one day she’ll capture the stone heart of a

Three weeks later“AAAAHHHHHH!! AAAAHHHHH.... IT HURTS, IT HURTS AAAAHHHH, WHY ISN’T IT OUT YET!!” I kept screaming at the doctor, Maude and the wise woman who was acting as my midwife. Luckily she had safely birthed children of her own and aided many women through the births of their own but as experienced as she was, I was not prepared for it to hurt THIS DAMN MUCH!“WHY ISN’T IT COMING? AAAAHHH! IS IT OK? AAHHHH FUCK!”The moment Mallon heard my screams, he broke tradition and came bounding into the room and took my hand as I squeazed his hard. “Mallon, it isn’t coming, why isn’t it coming yet?” I asked breathlessly as I writhed in pain.“It’s ok my love, it’s ok, the baby will come, you’re doing great my love, just keep strong”.“It fucking HUUURTS AHHHH!“. I yelled again.I saw as Mallon looked at the wise woman, I quickly looked to her aswell for a sign of what was happening. She simply nodded “This is normal, the baby will be ready to be pushed out, just keep breathing”.I want

Three months later:I walked through the halls whilst the autumn sun was streaming through the windows, my steps were slower and I felt like I was a waddling duck. All I could hear was John and Kol’s armour slowy shuffling behind me as they patiently waited for me to get to Cedric and Belinda’s room. My hands rested on my huge bump as I willed for it to stop pushing all of it’s weight onto my vagina and my legs, I felt as if someone had rested sacks of grain on my stomach and my feet were starting to swell in these blasted shoes that were squeazing my toes together.I entered quietly into their room to see the doctor wetting a cool cloth on Belinda’s forehead as she lay sleeping in bed, with Cedric and Nathaniel standing beside it, looking down at her, their faces tight with worry. I walked over to them and rested my hand on Nathaniel’s shoulder as belinda’s breaths were short and heavy, like every time she breathed in, it was as if she was gasping for air to reach her lungs. Cedric s

Ten weeks later:With everything that was looming over us, the village had been quiet since our soldiers had left almost two months ago. It seemed as though the sky had known the heaviness in our hearts as since the night they left, we hadn’t seen the sun in the sky. Grey clouds swarmed the sky from morning to night as if displaying the gloominess that lurked inside of us all every day. It was only three days ago that I was awoken with the news that I had been waiting for every day and worrying and filled with dread for the lives of all of our men.King Broch had finally returned word to me and had decided to agree to a new peace treaty and had informed me that he will not act against any of my allies unless he has good cause in future to do so. He explained that he was aware of Edric being removed from the throne but not why.. and that after conversing with neighbouring kings and queens, he found justifiable cause in Edric’s reign being put to an end. I took his letter to mean that h

Eight weeks later:I sat excitedly in a velvet cushioned seat with Mallon next to me, his hand covering mine on the arm rest as we over looked the crowd that was standing by in the village, with smiles of glee of the new matrimony they were exhilarated to see with this feeling of us all being brought together today for a happy celebration. I looked at the stone Pillars that were covered in green ivy and white flowers as Nathaniel stood in between them, waiting with the priest. I could see him nervously shifting on his feet as he waited for Lillian to appear.It wasn’t long until a young man, playing a soft tune on a flute began walking down the petal filled isle with Lillian close behind, with her mother walking at her side. Lillian’s dress was white lace from the bodice to the hem. The sleeves at her forearms flowed as she clutched her bouquet of white and pink blossoms. Her long brown hair was wavey with a band of flowers resting on her head. She looked like earth and nature, so pur

I awoke this morning feeling rather dizzy and Maude’s usual breakfast made my stomach turn, all I could eat was an apple and berries. When I still felt quesy by noon, I had sent for the doctor. I wasn’t panicked by being unwell, I just didn’t have the time to sit around until I was better, so I had hoped the doctor could give me some herbs and treatments to keep it at bay, but when he came to see me and did some rather different observations, none that I had ever had before. When he told me why I was feeling so ill. I felt as though someone had kicked me in the gut and hit my head with a shield.I knew it would happen eventually, but.... but if felt too soon. it has barely been a year since I became queen and wedded Mallon, I wasn’t sure if I was readily equipped for this!After wrapping my head around my shock I set off to find Mallon, who was in our study looking over letters from Kings that used to be allies of Edric and from the concentration on his face, it didn’t seem like posit
Rule of a ruthless King Chapter 30 - Kingdom of peace.
Four weeks later:Over the last few weeks, me and Mallon had been in constant communication with Aldrich In Ailingdale. Through his and our most trusted messengers we had finally signed and sealed our peace treaty, bringing our kingdoms together. Aldrich had also included in his letters that he had been in many talks with his allies in hopes to convince them to allign with Northleye. He spoke of how at first they all had refused to join forces with the king of greed of Northleye but that once he had told them of Edric’s removal from the throne and the new queen in his place, only too soon did I have letters from kings and queens in other kingdoms wanting to know more of me and the current state of my kingdom.I was only too eager to tell them of all the work we had done for our people who were now living in their new homes. All thier old shacks had been torn down to make way for a more variety and prosperous village market. Our Tavern had been refurbished as the roof had been falling
Rule of a ruthless King Chapter 29 - Love and friendships.
Three days later:Since our wedding night me and Mallon made love the moment we were alone in our room at the end of each day. He was right of course... by the third time we made love, my whole body completely melted into his and all my nerves I had before had vanished. It was such a powerful, exhillerating explosion that swept through my entire body and released on his penis as we both had peaked together. I knew from Maude’s descriptions what reaching peak meant, however she never told me what it would feel like and the incredible pleasure it could bring. Once Mallon had known I was just as pleasured now as he was, he was even more eager for us to be alone. Each night we would make love until the candle’s light went out and when morning came, we would do it again. And I stuck to my promise of calling him my husband each night and morning and he reciprocated by lovingly calling me his wife.The last three days I felt as though I was walking on a blissful cloud a bounce in each step I
