Love Agreement With The King

In the seventh month Abigail visited Roselyn to check on her, Victor was starting to ask questions so Abigail told John to visit him.

John nodded and recommended Abigail call him in case Roselyn felt sick, then he left leaving Abigail alone with Roselyn and the few maids.

She walked into her sister's room, her eyes widened so much that Roselyn for a second thought they could explode.

"Your belly! Oh my god," Abigail exclaimed covering her mouth in shock. 

Roselyn chuckled, "it looks like a mountain, I know." 

"A huge mountain!" Abigail rectified and both of them giggled aloud.

She saw the trail of biscuits Roselyn had on her bedside table and she stole one to take a few bites from it.

"Maybe John wants you to put weight on so he can cook you on a huge trail as a tasteful dessert!" Abigail exclaimed making Roselyn laugh even louder..

It had been so much since they joked as that and Roselyn missed it so much.

She didn't miss the arguments they had but she missed their jokes and their playful attitude.

Abigail took a second biscuit and then she sat on the bed.

She took a deep breath while she pointed the biscuit against Roselyn.

"You're going to give birth soon so we have to set some rules for when our babies will meet. Daniel doesn't have many human friends." Abigail said, she took a bit of her biscuit and then pointed back to Roselyn.

Roselyn suffocated a giggle seeing Abigail that serious and so determined to set rules that Roselyn forgot about that obsessive over control side of her.

"I don't want my son to hurt you in any way so I will have a talk with Daniel and tell him not to hurt him, or she?" Abigail's face assumed a thoughtful expression as she cupped her chin.

"You should be able to know if it's a girl or a boy… isn't John a vampire?" She asked but Roselyn shook her head.

"It's fine we will find out when he or she will be born."

Roselyn didn't want to find out earlier, she had that chat with John already because she didn't want to get conditioned by that too much.

Maybe John knew if it was a boy or a girl maybe he didn't but Roselyn didn't want to know, not until the last day.

Abigail nodded, ignoring Roselyn's altered tone of voice, "so you have to promise me we will make our sons grow together and get close." Abigail continued and Roselyn smiled.

Her sister stretched her hand, but Roselyn didn't hesitate to shake it.

Abigail sighed with relief, "good." she murmured.

All of a sudden Abigail broke the silence to giggle making Roselyn frown her forehead and arch her eyebrows down, "what are you laughing at?"

"If you had a son it means you and John got into action huh," Abigail said giggling.

Roselyn didn't expect her to say such a thing and she widened her eyes, her cheeks heated up and she blushed.

She covered her face with her hand so that her sister couldn't notice her embarrassment, she knew if her sister found out, she would take advantage of her shyness and make fun of her.

"I can't imagine you… doing that." Abigail said while she grimaced in disgust.

Roselyn shook her head, she grabbed around her sister's mouth and raised her voice, "stop it!" she said giggling. Her sister began to laugh, "it must have been very funny." Abigail continued between the laughs.

Roselyn pulled her sister's body down over the bed while they both exploded in laughs.

"Roselyn everything alright? I have to remind you you to rest." A maid's voice echoed from behind the door and Roselyn bite her tongue to suffocate the laugh.

"Yes! Thank you." Roselyn screamed back to the maid gesturing to Abigail to be quiet since she was making faces.

When the maid's footsteps faded away Abigail finally spoke letting out her anger and annoyance she had in the maids' regards, "can't they mind their own business?" Abigail spat out making Roselyn chuckle.

She headed to Abigail one biscuit and then she shrugged, "they are overprotective because they know how dangerous it could be in case someone discovers my pregnancy."

Roselyn leaned over her sister's ear, she cupped her hands and she whispered in her ear, "I think they may be scared of John too. Maybe they think if I get hurt when he's away he will kill them or something like that."

Abigail took a bite of her biscuit, "I would be scared too, they have all the reasons to be scared of John. Have you seen him? He seems to be made of ice. I don't know what you did to make him melt." Abigail shook her head perplexed while Roselyn giggled.

"He is not that cold, he is a very sweet person and very caring," Roselyn said, her eyes sparkled when she thought of John and a hinted smile appeared on her face making Abigail laugh lightly and roll her eyes."you're so in love, dear sister," she commented making Roselyn blush one more time.

Roselyn rolled her eyes and then they both laughed.

***

John had visited Victor meantime.

He was making John so many questions that John had to focus to keep calm and don't tell him to stop harassing him with such useless questions and focus instead on more important things for instance his visit and celebrating winning the battle.

Victor instead wanted to know what had happened to Ethan and how was William, he also thought it wasn't a coincidence if John had disappeared for more than a month since they last met.

He was wondering if he was planning something, maybe to visit the underworld to save Ethan? He could expect anything from John.

Victor folded his arms and looked at John frowning his forehead, "so tell me the truth, John. Why didn't you show up recently? And why did you reject all my letters asking you if we could visit the castle and see Roselyn?" His voice got louder and his tone rang more severe, "What happened?"
