A pretty young woman at the age of twenty six was in labour,Her beautiful long ocean blue hair spread around the bed that she was laying on,She had ocean blue eyes and soft pink lips.
The midwife was a middle aged woman,She kept on encouraging the young woman to push harder,While the young woman kept on screaming as she held the bedsheet tightly,beads of sweat rolled down her face.
The young woman breathed heavily as she tried her best to bring forth her baby into his new world.
"Empress Sara" The midwife called
"You are doing a good job"
"Just keep on pushing" The midwife encouraged the young woman
"Ah..." The young woman screamed
*********
A handsome young man at the age of twenty seven and the young woman that was in labour were walking together in a beautiful garden that was filled with different types of flowers.
The young man has short brown hair and charming brown eyes,He was wearing a royal attire.
While the young woman's ocean blue hair plunged over her shoulders, and her pink lips held the sweetest smile,She was also wearing a royal attire.
The young woman was pregnant.
"Sara" The young man called
"What is it?" The young woman asked
"I'll be riding to the battlefield tommorow" The young man said
"I received a letter that our enemies are overpowering our knights and...." The young man was interrupted by Empress Sara
"But you don't have to go"
"You can send some knights instead" Empress Sara said
"No...Sara"
"I need to be there"
"I need to stop Emperor Yu's Knights from reaching our boarder" The young man said
"Okay"
"But you'll have to promise me that you'll be careful and you'll come back alive" Empress Sara said
"I promise"
"I'll be careful and I'll come back alive"
"You have to promise me one thing too" The young man said
"And what is it?" Empress Sara asked
"Promise me that you'll take care of yourself and my unborn daughter while I am at the battlefield" The young man said
"I promise" Empress Sara said
"But...Who told you that is a girl?" Empress Sara asked
"No one" The young man replied
"I know it'll be a girl" The young man said
Then he wore a smile on his face as he stared at Empress Sara's stomach.
"No...It'll be a boy"
"We already have two daughters" Empress Sara said
"And one more angel won't hurt" The young man said
*********
"Empress Sara...You need to push harder" The midwife said
The young woman snapped out of her thought,Then she slowly turned her neck to her left,A big picture was hanging on the wall,She and the young man that was in her thought were in the photo.
Empress Sara closed her eyes as she flashed back to another event,Where a corspe was brought to the palace by some knights that were injured and weak.
The corspe was covered with a white cloth.
Empress Sara snapped out of her thought as she opened her eyes,tears rolled down her cheek,Then she flashed back to when she opened the white cloth that was used to cover the corpse,She was shocked to see that the corspe was her husband.
A middle aged woman that was wearing a royal attire stood beside her.
"You told me that you'll come back alive" Empress Sara said
"Why did you lie to me?" Empress Sara asked
"Emperor Tsuki helped us in defeating Emperor Yu's Knights"
"We won the battle"
"But a stray arrow came out of nowhere and strucked our Emperor on his chest"
"We tried our best to keep him alive"
"But the arrow was poisoned" One of the knights said
"It must be one of Emperor Yu's Knights"
"Our Emperor would have been alive if you fools didn't sent him a letter to come and save you" The middle aged woman that was standing beside Empress Sara said
"No Dowager...We did not send any letter to Emperor Tsuki" One of the knights denied
"What do you mean?" Empress Sara asked
"We were surprised when we saw Emperor Tsuki at the battlefield"
"When we asked him why he came"
"He told us that he received a letter from us"
"That the enemies were overpowering us"
"So we told him that we didn't sent him any letter" Another knight said
"So it was a trap" Empress Sara said
"Someone wanted to kill my husband"
"So they lured him out of Goldenville empire"
"So that they can kill him without being noticed" Empress Sara said
"Don't worry my love" Empress Sara said as she touched Emperor Tsuki's cheek
"I'll find your killer and make sure they pay with their life" Empress Sara said as tears rolled down her cheek
Empress Sara snapped out of her thought,Then she flashed back to when the Dowager was having a conversation with her.
The middle aged woman was sitting on a bed,While Empress Sara stood in front of her.
"My son,Your husband and our Emperor has gone to meet with his acenstors and he is never coming back"
"The whole of Goldenville Empire hope lies with your unborn child"
"So you better pray that is a boy"
"Because if you dare give birth to another girl I'll kill her and the rest of your daughters" The middle aged woman threatened
Empress Sara was shocked to hear this.
"Understand?" The middle aged woman asked
"Ye..Ye..Yes" Empress Sara stammered
"Good...You can go" The middle aged woman said
Empress Sara snapped out of her thought.
"Don't worry my son"
"I'll bring you into this world" Empress Sara said to herself
"Ahh..Ehm..Ahhhhh!" Empress Sara screamed
Then she gave out a weak breath.
"You did it" The midwife said as she carried a baby from in-between Empress Sara's leg
"Congratulations" The midwife said
Empress Sara tried to talk,But she was too weak and tired.
"Don't stress yourself...Get some rest"
"I'll be right back" The midwife said
Then she walked into another room that was inside Empress Sara's room.
"Tsuki...I hope you are happy where ever you are?" She asked
"Our son has come into this world" Empress Sara said as she stared at the picture that was hanging on the wall,tears rolled down her cheeks
"It would have been much better if you were here"
"You would have been sitting beside me and be smoothing my hair as you congratulate me"
"But you lied to me...You told me that you'll come back alive" Empress Sara said
Some few minutes later,The midwife walked up to Empress Sara,She was carrying Empress Sara's baby on her arms.
Empress Sara's baby was nicely wrapped with a soft pink cloth,The cloth covered the newborn baby's hands and feets,exposing only the babies cute little face.
The baby had short ocean blue hair and ocean blue eyes like his mum.
Empress Sara tried to sit down,So that she could carry her baby,But she was still weak.
"No my dear...Relax yourself"
"You don't need to sit down" The midwife said as she placed Empress Sara's baby beside her
Empress Sara turned to her right and stared at her baby's face.
"You are so cute my child" Empress Sara said
While the midwife picked up the sheets that were covered in blood and placed it on a bowl that was filled with some sheets that were also covered with blood.
The midwife picked up a white cloth from the cupboard that was close to Empress Sara's bed.
Then she gently raised one of Empress Sara's right leg and placed the cloth on the area that was stained with blood,She gently raised Empress Sara's left leg and arranged the white cloth on the bed to cover the the areas that were stained with blood.
"I'll tell the maidens to change the bed sheet later when you have had your rest" The midwife said
"Ok" Empress Sara said
The midwife picked up the bowl and walked away.
Few minutes later,The midwife walked into the room and met Empress Sara who was still staring at her baby.
"She looks just like you" The midwife said
