Rule of a ruthless King Chapter 36 - If you were here.
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

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

“Where is she?” King Edric bellowed at his first guard as he stood proud in front of his throne.“She’s on her way, my king, she was in the gardens when we sent word for her” Matthias answered as he bowed respectfully, trying to stop the king from growing impatient.The king kissed his teeth in annoyance that she wasn’t here the moment he demanded her presence. At that the soft clacking of shoes began to echo through the hall as I finally entered the room. Hurriedly I came up before him and knelt on one knee with my head bowed to the floor.“You asked to see me, my King?”“Yes! Next time don’t take so long!”“Forgive me” I pleaded timidly “It won’t happen again” I knew better than to make excuses for myself and to test his patience ever more, even if I hadn’t arrived late on purpose. After all I practically ran here the moment I heard he wanted to speak with me.“It better not” he scolded as he stepped closer to me. “It seems after all these years, I finally have some use for you Aure
Rule of a ruthless King Chapter 2 - The prince.
Seven weeks laterI was just about to head out of the castle doors when my father’s voice stopped me in my tracks, I turned around, bowed as he approached me sternly“Aurelia, where do you think you’re going?”“I was just heading out to the woods, my king, to pick some wildflowers, the ones I have in my room have wilted”“Well, you won’t be going anywhere unattended from now on”I looked to him in confusion, he’s never been bothered about me being unsupervised. Just then he nodded over to a young man to join us, he was dressed in the silver guards armor, with a sword tucked at his side. “This is Nathaniel, he will go wherever you go from now on”“Can I ask why, your majesty?”He glared at me arrogantly “You think, with the prince likely to show up at any moment, I’ll just let you wander off to god knows where and be seen mingling with the village men? I don’t want the prince getting the wrong idea, by thinking you have a certain reputation… the way you just flaunt yourself in front of
Rule of a ruthless King Chapter 2, part 2 - the prince.
I ate my evening meal, alone in my room. Edric had told Maude that I wasn’t to join them in the hall tonight This evening was only for him, Mallon and the other men that went hunting with them today, he wanted to celebrate their lucky catch of two deer and a fox, but I knew it was only to give him chance to mould Prince Mallon into the future King of Northlaye, the kind of king, Edric wanted him to be.The next morning, I awoke, stretched out as I thought about the day ahead. Before I went to sleep last night, Maude told me she overheard the king planning the day with Mallon, all the things he wanted to do and discuss with the young prince.I made my way down to the kitchen and chuckled in my head at how ridiculous my father was. He was so eager for Mallon to agree to wed me and yet he won’t give us any time to spend together! He must think himself such a favourable man, that only he alone can persuade Mallon to marry me, of course in his dim brain the thought of me and Mallon getting
Rule of a ruthless King Chapter 2, part 3 - The prince.
We both headed out of my room, and while she turned for the kitchens I went in the opposite direction to the main hall.As soon as I walked through the doors, I saw four men in one corner playing music as everyone else chatted amongst themselves and moved from one conversation to another.I ignored the kings hard stare on me, and I made my way through as everyone bowed and greeted me kindly, I came to three women, who I’m guessing were wives, they were too nicely dressed and looked too nervous to be the usual women my father had in here.Matthias wondered over and handed me a cup of wine “Princess, you look stunning, it’s nice to have you with us tonight!”“Thank you, is your wife here? I haven’t seen her in so long!”“Yes, she’s just over there” He pointed to the long wooden table, that was dressed prettily in cloth and an array of delicious foods “I think she’s mainly here for the food” he jokedI giggled “I don’t blame her, it all looks incredible, I may have to stuff my face befor

I awoke the next morning feeling more apprehensive than I had ever felt before as I dressed in an emerald gown and le my hair down loose. I hated that the prince had such an affect on me, stirring hot and fiery sparks that always arose from my stomach every time I saw him, it was both electrifying and scary at the same time. I found myself eager to see him and it unnerved me that he already had that power over me, a man I still barely knew.Just as I was walking down the corridor toward the castle doors, I felt a presence behind me, and I could hear panted breaths. I swung around to see the prince swiftly approaching with a jovial smile, I curtsied as he reached me and I could already feel my heart pounding excitedly... “Mallon, good morning”“Good morning, Aurelia, I must say you’re looking more beautiful every time I see you”.I sniggered at his compliment, feeling myself heat up under his gaze. “Are you on your way to see the king?”“Uh, no, I’ve already had word with him this morn
Rule of a ruthless King Chapter 3, part 2 - Truths unfold.
Today I was in need of fresh air and a friendly face, one that I knew I could trust so I decided to visit Joan, she lived just outside the village in one of the less dilapidated houses, so I dressed in a gown and my cloak and snuck quietly out of my room. I knew I had to be quick and as silent as possible, so no one would bother me.I paced down the long corridor and peeped through the door that led to the main hall, this was the only way out to the entrance of the castle. Even with all my adventuring around the castle when I was small, I never came upon a hidden way out, as I got older, I kept wishing I could claw my own way out.The coast was clear, not a noise or whisper in sight, I shimmed through the open gap of the door and hurried across the hall, damning it for being so large, luckily, I had purposefully put my flat shoes on with soft soles on so they wouldn’t echo a clacking noise through the room. The entrance was getting closer with only one guard stationed there and it was

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

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
