Just like they had feared and predicted, an unfamiliar carriage pulled up at the gate of the villa a few days. Maya was in Dexter's room, discussing with him with Nanny Naomi came with the news. Maya looked at her nanny, a surprised look on her face. Dexter mirrored the same expression. Almost immediately, Maya got on her feet, her expression turning serious. " We expected this already, so there's nothing to be worried about." She turned to the windows, closing the curtains. Darkness settled into the room. " We don't know who that it is and we are also not expecting anyone. It would only make sense to hide Prince Dexter now." " Yes, my Princess." Naomi answered. Maya's hands dropped to her side as she sucked in a deep breath." Take him to the place we mentioned, no one will be able to find him there. I will welcome the guests myself." She announced. Naomi's head snapped up. " No, my Princess..." She began saying... Maya turned to her, her gaze filled wi
Maya walked down the large hallway, holding a lamp on her right hands. There should be candles filling up the hallways to bring light to them but since they wasn't any use of them, none was lit. At the very end of the hallway was a door that was hidden behind a large portrait. She glanced around the hallway first before pushing the portrait away, revealing the door. With a creak, she pushed the door open and a flight of stairs came into view. The stairs led down to the basement. Holding the lamp firmly in her hands, Maya took in a deep breath and began walking down the steps, the only source of light coming from the lamp. She soon arrived at one of the doors and knocked on it. Receiving a reply, she pushed the door and walked in. Dexter was sitting at the edge of the bed, his face filled with worry. He relaxed visibly when he saw her. " I'm sorry, I hope you're not too uncomfortable? I had my Nanny clean this place in preparation for this but i
In the week that followed, it was not until they heard the crown prince had gone back to Madonia did they finally get the chance to breath again. If he left without causing trouble, then his people should have left with him. He couldn't possibly be looking for Dexter now. During those moments however, Maya and Dexter had gotten even closer. As close as they could get. Dexter health was also improving rapidly and now he could walk around almost without any aide. As much as it made Maya happy to see him get better, a part of her was saddened at the fact that he would eventually leave. Having him around has brightened her usual boring, monotone life. And it's all about to change. The second week rolled by and Maya began noticing some changes in Dexter's mood. His health almost fully recovered, he began to worry a lot. During those times, Maya didn't know how to help him with it and she didn't bother asking because she knew why he did. She'd asked her Nanny for help
With the passing days, came the change of seasons. The bright, hot summer had disappeared and fall was going strong. Dexter had gotten even better, all his wounds healing well, leaving behind very little scars. He'd also begun exercising to gather his full strength. Maya especially liked to watch him when he did so. She would stay by her room window, overlooking the garden where he trained, a permanent smile on her face. With this, came the knowledge that he would be leaving soon. Maya decided to help him in preparation for the time he'll be going back. Taking permission from her Nanny, she decided to go to the nearby village to get things from him, using yearly allowance she received from the Royal palace. It wasn't a lot but she saved most of it so it had piled up to a good amount. Her first stop was at the horse trader. Covering most her body till only her face was visible, she called on the man. " I would like to buy a horse. The most sturdy one you can find. It m
"You're worrying again, aren't you?" A voice asked, interrupting Dexter from his thoughts. He looked up to see Maya standing above him, a stern look on her face. Caught in the act, all he could do was shrug, looking away. A week had passed since Maya had gone into the village to get him a horse. Knowing what they had implied, it had caused him to spiral, causing him to constantly think. "It's not like I can help it." He answered, his voice low. "Of course you can. You just don't want to." Maya countered. Then her gaze softened. "I don't like seeing you like this. It makes me worry as well. Everything is going to be fine." "Easy for you to say." "Okay, that's it! We are going on a walk!' Maya announced, pulling Dexter to his feet. Dexter stared at her surprised. "Going on a walk, now?" "Of course. Don't you want to?" Dexter scratched the back of his neck, looking nervous. "I don't think so. Besides, where would we go?" "The riverside
( Two weeks later) Naomi walked up to the insistent knock at the villa's door. Wiping her dirty hands on the apron, a frown her on her face, she wondered who it was. It couldn't be her princess and his highness, Prince Dexter, they already told her they wouldn't be coming home until lunchtime. A small smile touched her lips on remembering her princess. The young lady had dragged the prince out for a walk when she caught him worrying yet again, stating it was good for him. She arrived at the door and pulled it open, startling whoever was behind it. Naomi froze seeing the clothes the stranger's body. A Royal messenger from the palace. The stranger bowed before stretching out a piece of parchment with a royal seal to her. " For the Princess." He announced, his voice gruff. Naomi stared at it for the longest time before taking from the man's hands, her brows furrowed. Whatever was in it, she was sure it won't be good. " Would that be all?" She asked, holding it
For the next few hours, Maya stayed in her room, rereading the contents of the letter over and over again. Such action only did well to increase the agony in her heart, causing her to grow pensive as time wore an on. The Royal family had finally contacted her after all these years and this is what they send. Maya couldn't believe it. Dinner was the only time Maya stepped out of her room and since her mood still hadn't improved, it caused an unnatural tension to hang in the air, seeing the usual cheerful princess, quiet as a tomb. Naomi, already used to her princess behavior just served her dinner, leaving her alone. It was Dexter who kept peering at her, wondering what went wrong. "Do you want to want to talk about it?" He asked when the silence finally became unbearable. " They're moving the time I'll be leaving the villa forward" Maya suddenly announced, surprising everyone on the table. " It's no longer three months from now. I just have a month left." She wa
( Back to the present) Maya eyes widened as she remembered and it only grew wider till it felt like they would pop out of their sockets. Dexter's fingers still under her chin, his lips twitched on seeing the reaction. She reeled backwards, her mouth wide open in shock. " Dexter!" She screamed before clamping her hands over her mouth, stupefied. Dexter allowed his lips to stretch into a smile, his eyes glowing. " You remember." He said, his voice low. Maya's heart began thrumming. " Dexter!!" She repeated, still finding it hard to believe. Oh heavens...! Oh heavens!! How did she not see it!? How did she not recognize him!?! She stared at him again, her eyes clear. Now that she remembered, everything had changed. The once intimidating man didn't look so... Intimidating anymore. He still had the aura around him yes, but he didn't frighten her anymore. He walked closer to her, running her hands through hair before resting on her cheeks..." How could

Months had flown by, the passage of time evident in Maya's enlarged belly as her due date approached. The Queen's once graceful movements were now hindered by the weight she carried, causing her a great deal of anxiety. Excitement and nervousness intertwined in the hearts of the Royal couple as they anticipated the imminent arrival of their child.Devon rarely strayed from Maya's side, his devotion evident in his tireless efforts to care for her and ensure her comfort. Despite the challenges they faced, he personally attended to her every need, a pillar of strength and support. Maya cherished his presence, grateful to have such a compassionate and attentive man by her side.One morning, as Maya walked around the king's chambers, her growing belly making each step a bit more cumbersome, she confided in Dexter. "The doctor said I'll be due any minute now. I feel so heavy," she moaned, her voice tinged with both exhaustion and anticipation. Rising from the bed, Dexter joined her, his han
King Dexter noticed the subtle changes in his beloved Queen, Maya before she did. Her radiant smile seemed to hold an extra sparkle, and a certain glow enveloped her complexion. Deep down, Devon suspected what this meant, but he decided to wait for the right moment before confirming his suspicions.One evening, as the sun dipped below the horizon, painting the sky in hues of crimson and gold, Maya began to feel an unusual sick. Concern etched itself onto Devon's face as he watched her pale slightly. Without wasting another moment, he called for the royal doctor, his voice laced with urgency.Within minutes, the royal physician arrived at their private chambers, carrying an air of calm expertise. His eyes, filled with wisdom and compassion, quickly assessed the Queen's condition. After a thorough examination, he nodded with certainty, his voice gentle yet brimming with joy as he delivered the long-awaited news."Your Majesty, congratulations are in order," the doctor announced, a warm
Maya woke up the next morning, feeling a sense of emptiness without Dexter by her side. As she slowly opened her drowsy eyes, she scanned the chambers and spotted Dexter already dressing up for his duties. Catching sight of her stirring, he paused his preparations and walked over to her, planting a gentle kiss on her forehead."Good morning," he muttered, a soft smile gracing his face."Good morning," she whispered, reaching out to touch his cheeks. He caught her hand and kissed it tenderly."How do you feel?" he asked, releasing her hand. Maya instinctively touched her body, then beamed up at him."Great.""I'm glad to hear that. I'm already leaving for my duties. The maids will come in soon to prepare you for the day. I've already instructed them. I'll see you in the evening.""Why evening?" Maya inquired, looking at him curiously. He pursed his lips for a moment."I want us to go for a walk in the gardens today," he revealed. Maya nodded, her heart racing with excitement and antici
"Turn around, get on all fours, and have your behind facing upwards," Dexter commanded, his voice stern.Maya complied, turning around and doing as she was told. Her backside raised high in the air, she waited for Devon, her heart pounding. She felt him caress her butt and she bit back a moan, already shivering in anticipation. Dexter leaned down to suck on her earlobes, his body pressing her down into the bed. "How do you want it?" He asked, his hands still drawing lazy circles on her behind. "Fast and hard, or very slow?" He asked, his voice dangerously calm. Maya swallowed, thinking about her options."H-how about both?" Maya muttered back, sucking in her lower lips. She felt Dexter hit her backside and she squirmed, her insides clenching at the surge of pain that coursed through her body."Now, you're just being greedy." He muttered, his voice harsh. Biting and sucking in her skin, Dexter continued to tease her, rubbing his hardened length on her wet folds. Maya whimpered, pushing
"Touch yourself again." Devon repeated and Maya's heart skipped a beat. She gulped, blinking rapidly. Why would he want her to do that? Still, she couldn't deny it felt almost exciting to try that in front of him. His gaze not leaving hers, Maya did as she was told. Very slowly, her hands inched between her thighs, her face burning even as she tried to appear unaffected."Spread your legs further." He commanded and Maya stiffened, her eyes flying open. Devon didn't move, no expression on his face as she spoke it. But she knew he meant it. Biting her lips, she spread her legs further, settling her fingers in between them, her blush growing down her body. Still reeling from her first orgasm, she started to touch herself, gasping at the sensation coursing through her body. With Dexter watching her, the act was even more erotic. It was almost too much to handle.The atmosphere was filled with sexual tension and no matter how hard Maya tried to minimize the pleasure she got from the act,
As evening fell, Dexter and Maya made their way back to the palace. Dexter hurried off to attend his duties, leaving Maya alone in the king's chambers. She couldn't contain her joy, her smile radiant as the maids readied a bath for her. Among them was Rosa, who eagerly awaited her chance to speak with the queen. Finally, the maids departed, and Rosa approached Maya with a gentle smile, drawing closer to her."How was your day, my queen?" Rosa asked, her gentle hands pouring warm water over Maya's body, cleansing it with care.Maya's face lit up, her joy evident as she clapped her hands. "It was splendid! The best I have had in a while," she beamed, her happiness radiating from within.A warm smile adorned Rosa's face as she continued to wash the queen, attentively tending to her. When they were halfway through, Rosa couldn't resist asking her question."Should I prepare the tea for you, my queen?" she inquired, her voice filled with sincerity, while Maya, lost in her thoughts, simply
Two days had passed since Maya's discussion with Rosa, and finally, all the necessary preparations were in place. After adorning herself for the day, Rosa lingered behind once the other maids had departed, eager to share some news with the queen. Maya sat patiently, awaiting Rosa's words."My Queen, I have some news," Rosa announced, her head respectfully bowed."Please, go ahead," Maya encouraged."I scoured the surroundings in search of suitable herbs for your condition, and this is what was recommended to me," Rosa explained, reaching into her pouch and producing a bundle of dried leaves. She placed them carefully before the queen. "According to the doctors, they advised me to brew a tea with these leaves. It is believed to prepare the body for pregnancy," Rosa concluded.Maya gazed at the herbs before her, taking them into her hands to examine them closely. Satisfied that they were genuine and potent, she nodded, her eyes turning to meet Rosa's."Well then, I have heard what you h
Note: This is a side story. it is not taking anything away from the main story since that is completed. But rather a continuation. if you want to spend more time with the characters, read this. That being said, enjoy!!!!It was the height of summer, the sweet fragrances of flowers floated through the sunlit corridors, seeping into the grand chambers of the king. Maya, dressed in her finest garments, settled in front of her vanity, the warm sunlight casting a gentle glow upon her reflection. Her handmaids bustled around her, carefully selecting beautiful jewelry to complement her dress, and a soft smile adorned her face. The past few months had been a glorious time for the royal family. The war that once wreaked havoc upon their kingdom was now a faded memory, defeated by their unwavering determination and success. In its wake, peace embraced the land, offering solace to its inhabitants. Maya's heart overflowed with happiness, her only wish being the perpetuation of this blissful exist
