PREGNANT FOR A PRINCE : EPISODES 31 – 40

Episode 34
We continued walking until we got to the top, and geez! It made me feel like I was flying.
I felt scared but, on the brighter side, it was refreshing—the air, the view.
It was breathtaking.
“Do you like it?” Zosar asked as he stood beside me, and I just nodded.
“Your ice cream! It’s getting melted,” he reminded me, and I gasped and looked at my hand.
Oh! No way! You won’t believe I actually forgot.
“Thank you,” I laughed and licked it, and he did the same, taking a little from his cone.
For a moment, we were silent, just staring into space.
“So… how’s the baby?” He broke the silence, and I looked at him.
“Well…” I touched my tummy.
“I think it’s fine. I… feel heavy and tiny little movements sometimes.”
I felt a little ecstatic about it—the new feeling—it was appreciated.
Zosar smiled and came to face me.
He lifted the tip of my shirt, exposing my tummy. Gosh! It made me cringe a little.
He smiled as he placed his hand on my tummy, as if he wanted to feel the baby.
The bump was becoming bigger, and my navel was already sticking out.
“If you were Hathor, what would you want this baby to take from me?” He asked, and I looked at him, surprised.
I chuckled and lowered my gaze.
“Well…royalty,” I replied, and he laughed. Of course, it was ridiculous. The baby was already royalty.
“Well…I’d have wanted him to have Hathor’s eyes,” he said wistfully and tugged my shirt.
He resumed standing beside me, and we didn’t say anything to each other for a while.
“What will you do about it?” he suddenly asked. “The pains. What if it comes again? It was really awful, right? For how long will you be able to cope with it?”
The question alone made me mad and resurrected the fear in me.
“I don’t know,” I said under my breath. “I just didn’t plan on sleeping with anyone anytime soon.
I’ve always wanted to have it on my wedding night – with the right person. And that’s the reason I never had a boyfriend while growing up.
I didn’t want a situation where… I’d get used and dumped.” I concluded ruefully.
“Maybe you won’t get dumped,” he said after a little silence, and I furrowed my brows and looked at him.
Huh?
“I mean… if you stick around, stay here in Egypt, you won’t get dumped,” he said with a chuckle, trying to turn it into a joke.
I scoffed and shook my head.
“I don’t even know anyone. I guess I’m just doomed,” I blurted, and he turned to face me.
“Well…” He lifted his hand to my hair. “You know me.”
My eyes dimmed immediately.
Whaaat?
What’s he talking about?
I stared at him speechlessly as his eyes bore into mine. I couldn’t even say a word.
Slowly, he pulled out a strand of my hair and held it with two fingers. I looked at him and wondered what he wanted to do.
He breathed on the hair, and it left his fingers and started floating.
Oh my God! It was glowing! Bringing out tiny lights.
What? How did he do that?
I looked at it in amusement and laughed. Oh my God! It was incredible and beautiful!
“Do you like it?” he asked as I laughed.
“Of course! It’s beautiful,” I chuckled.
“Well… I can make more for you,” he shrugged.
And the rest of the time was fun…

Next morning
Naunet’s Pov:
I stood beside mum in the throne room, feeling so scared.
We were standing before the King and Queen, while Zosar also stood a few meters away from his parents.
A few minutes later, the healer entered, holding a little box. I shot mum a stare, feeling so scared.
She had told me everything was taken care of, and I had nothing to fear.
“Good morning, my King.
“Good morning, my Queen. Long live the descendants of the throne,” she greeted with a bow.
“Greetings to you, healer. Are the results ready?” The king replied and asked.
“Yes, my King.”
“What does it say? Please, we’re eager to know,” the Queen chipped in.
She opened the box and brought out a little bottle.
Then surprisingly, she faced us.
“First of all,” she began. “I want to start by calling this woman out for trying to manipulate me.” She pointed at mum.
Whaaaat???
I noticed mum flinched.
“And secondly, the result is negative. That baby doesn’t belong to the prince.”
Oh, saviors!!
No!!
