A week later

Dawn?
I paced around the room feeling curious and terribly scared.

I’ve been waiting patiently for my monthly menstrual period but its not forth coming.

I think I’m sick. Could it be King Lee hurt my va-ginawith his member and my period seized??

Oh heavens!
I could think anything possible at the moment.

I’m too scared to tell mom about this and neither could I tell King Lee.
He’s ba-rely at the castle this past week.

I swear I saw him just twice and then he’s off with the council.

Is this how its gonna be when I get married to a king??
He will have so many things to handle and won’t always be there.

I guess I’ll get used to it.

A knock came at the door but I didn’t notice just yet.
It came once again and I replied wryly.

The door opened and I discovered it was mom who had been knocking.

“Hey mom” I muttered despondently.

“Are you alright?” She asked walking in with a tray in her hands.

“I’m fine” I mumbled and sat on the bed.

“Caroline told me you haven’t had breakfast, why’s that?” She asked quizzically.

“Oh…I don’t feel hungry” I whispered as she kept the tray beside me on the bed.

“Don’t tell me you’re watching weight now” she teased and I smiled lightly.

“Nothing’s wrong mom. I’ll eat once I have an appetite” I said and she sighed.

“Alright, my dear. Has the king called you ever since he left??” She further asked.

“Yes. I think its been three times” I replied and looked down.
“Our wedding was supposed to hold today…right before I confessed about not being Anna” I stated.

“Cheer up dear…everything will be fine soon” She beamed.

I nodded slowly.

Alicia?
“I want the clothes pressed and well ironed” I ordered and the maid nodded.

She carried the laundry basket and left the room.

I planned on going out with Xenia today.

We would go on a picnic at the beach with my cousin and their children.

I called King Lee twelve times this morning to ask for his permission but he wasn’t answering any of my calls.

I’m definitely going and I don’t care what he has to say about it.

Besides, we’ll be back before evening.

I stood up and checked out the short beach dress I was putting on. It hu-gged my body perfectly.

I gleefully grabbed my purse and went to the door. Xenia and the maid were already on their way.

She was in a yellow str-apless gown and fli-p flops.

“You don’t nee-d to wear your crown dear” I said and the maid removed the crown carefully from her head.

“Thats better. We can go now” I chimed and took her tiny hand.

She waved to the maid as we left.

“Bye Xenia. Have a great time, ma’am” she said behind us.

Dawn?
I was snapped out of boredom the moment I heard the sound of cars driving in.

I immediately knew who it was but I remained lying on the bed.

King Lee is so annoying!!

I called him an hour ago and he answered but just as I was about to say something, he hung up on me.

I’m so not talking to him.
Does he think I’m desperate and can’t live without him?
No way…I’m mad at him right now.

*princess Anna*
A voice said outside the door and I cringed.

He’s here!
I climbed off the bed and blandly ushered him to come in.

The doctor came into the room with a big black bag.

I felt uncomfortable about letting him know what’s wrong with me.

What if I’m suffering a terrible diseases.
Of course I can’t heal myself.

I don’t know what’s wrong with me.
The healing powers take too much out of me and it feels like death.

I seriously don’t want to use them again.

I’ll faint this time around.

The doctor wore a stupid smile on his face and I got the urge to ask him to leave.

“Good afternoon doctor” I greeted with a wry smile.

“Afternoon, my dear…how are you?” He replied and asked approaching the bed.

“I’m alright…I guess. I called because I think something big is wrong with me. The thing is, I was expecting to see my monthly menstrual flow two weeks ago but its delaying and I suspect that I’m having a big illness that’s stopping it from coming” I whispered and he chuckled.

“No offense, your highness but how old are you?” He asked.

“I’m 19” I replied bashfully.

“Oh, I see. There is one possibility and that could be you’re pregnant dear–”

Whaaat?!

“You can’t be serious doctor” I said completely muzzled.

“Are you sure I’m not down with a big illness?” I added.

“Yes, you’re perfectly normal but I presume you’re pregnant, your highness. I think its best we run a test on you” he said and I shrieked.

Test???

Alicia?
“…I think its best we run a test on you” I overheard the doctor say.

I stopped with Xenia to eavesdrop on their conversation.

Could it be possible that she’s pregnant already???

Oh goodness!.
I can’t control the anger and jealousy I felt instantly.

Season_2_Episode_40???

King Lee?
I could ba-rely sit up from my bed after I laid on it.

The stress I went throu-ghduring the week was damn much that I feel like never getting up again.

I’m still young.
I don’t want to have weak bones when I’m still in my early 20’s.

I plonked myself into the thick bedsheet and the image that filled my mind was Dawn’s beautiful face.

She was a hu-ge distraction to me during the travels.

I can’t wait to see her.
I admit I’m kinda bored too.

A knock came on the door and I responded coyly to it.

Raphael walked in and he bows instantly.

“Where’s Dawn?” I asked feeling my heart beat increase.

“She refused to come see you, your highness” He replied and I cringed.

What?!!!!

Alicia?
Xenia and I arrived at the lovely garden to meet most of my relatives around and busy with some royal activities.

Just after the garden was the beach next to the cool blue sea.

“Marcella!” Xenia called out and ran to her cousin who was making a sand castle.

I chuckled and approached the large table where everyone gathered around talking and drinking.

This ought to be fun.

I took a seat beside my brother and everyone took time in greeting me.

I missed this feeling. Being around people who cared about you and not being trapped in King Lee’s castle – filled with unfairness.

Dawn?
I started feeling guilty and different after Raphael left the room to King Lee’s chambers.

He might be mad at me for refusing to see him.

As much as I wanted to stay back at the room, I also nee-ded to see him and know how he’s doing.

And as for the pregnancy test…

I sighed and went out of the room.

The hallway was empty giving me enough space I wanted at the moment.

I got to his door meeting the two guards.

Don’t they ever take a rest???

“I want to see the king” I muttered.

“He has asked us not to let you in, your highness” One of them replied.

Seriously??…

“But when? He se-nt his personal guard to come call me minutes ago—”

“Yes, we know” They replied and looked away.

I scoffed.
This dudes are crazy!

I folded my arms and stood still for a while.
They could be right too. Maybe King Lee is angry with me.

The door opened and Raphael walked out.

I quickly went to him.

“Please help me get in. I wasn’t in my best mood then” I pleaded with a crumpled look.

He smiled lightly at me.

“Give him some time, he might hurt you if you go in now” He replied and walked away.

I arched my brows.
What does he mean by that???

I suddenly remembered the day the king slapped me.

Maybe its best if I leave and come back later.

I turned and scurried back to my room.

I sat on the bed waiting impatiently for the doctor to come back into the room with the test result.

I don’t know what I would do if it turns out positive.

I’m not married yet and I don’t think I can be a single mother.

I don’t even have a job.
God! My life is messed up.

The door opened and my heart began beating like a pa-rty drum.

The doctor kept me in immense suspense as he approached the bed.

The home pregnancy test kit was in his hand and my eyes glued to it.

“Your highness, congratulations. You’re one month pregnant” He stated.

I felt my heart leaving my body.

Alicia?
I was doing a good job at the game we were pla-ying.

Just an innocent game.
Truth or dare.

I was asked not to pa-rticipate in the game because I’m married and much more to King Lee but then…
I was persistent.

Suddenly, I felt a stir in my tummy and I got the urge to throw up. I ran out from the table towards the beach and I vomited in an uncontrollable manner.

My brother’s girlfriend was right behind me and she patted my back smoothly.

“Are you alright?” She asked amidst the wind.
I couldn’t respond as I pa-nted heavily.

“From the looks of that vomit, I think you’re pregnant, Alicia” she whispered and my eyes wide-ned.
