Eve pov
I smile at myself, remembering how Henry has always been with me every night for the past one month, after that night he had told me to be on his bed every night, off course I didn't think twice before saying yes, but for the past one week, he hasn't called for me, maybe he got bored off me, I mean it was just my wishful thinking, to think something would come out of this, I needed to stop reading those stupid fantasy books.
" Eve breakfast is here". Beauty say walking towards me with a smile and a plate filled with egg yolks and bread, but for some reason I felt nousious and quickly went to the bathroom to throw up, it's been going on like this for weeks now, I stared at my reflection and quickly brushed my teeth, thank goodness princess hazel had built a small place for me, where I could call my home, I came out to see beauty smiling at me.
" What?" I ask walking towards the bed, I don't think I could eat that.
" Am going to be a godmother". Wait, what?, A godmother?, It hasn't really crossed my mind that I could be pregnant with Henry's baby, now that I think about it, I have been feeling off lately.
" am not sure". I wisper, putting my hands on my belly, was Henry seed growing inside of me?.
" Well then, let's be sure, get up we are going to see a physician". Beauty say standing up.
" You sure?". I ask feeling scared, what if I wasn't pregnant, and what if I was, I have always wanted that since the first day, but now that I think about it, I felt empty.
" Get up let's go".

" Ma, your two weeks pregnant". The physician said, and I didn't know how to respond, I wanted to cry at the same time scream, and also wished Henry was here with me, just like in the novels, would he kiss me and tell me thank you for making me the happiest man on earth, would he never let me raise a finger and spoil me rotten, I guess we would never know.
" Am going to be a godmother". Beauty scream and hugged me tight, well at least I have her.

I stare at the papers in my hands, trying to read it but I couldn't,not when eve coconut scent clouded my senses, fuck.
I try to tell myself that she's just a distraction, a distraction from my hurt of hazel, but I find myself getting close to her, too dangerously close, so I pushed her away for the past one week, trying to prove to myself she was nothing but just a good fuck, but this one week has been torture for me and it really makes me question myself, I look out the window and it was dark, just like her hair, as much as I hate to admit it, I miss her, and I don't think I can spend another night without her.
" Someone". I called and a guard walked in.
" My lord?".
" Get me eve". So much for staying away.
" Yes my lord".

" If it's a girl, let's name her love, or January or chole, no, no, oh about Halle?". Beauty has been like this since we got back from the physician.
" Beauty am just two weeks pregnant, don't you think it's too early for the names?".
" No, no, what if we can't decide after the child is born, that would be a disaster". She say and I giggle she was something, I wonder what kind of name Henry would want.
" Eve are you okay?". Beauty ask sitting beside me.
" I just, I don't know, I wonder what it would be like if Henry was here". I say and she hugged me.
" Have you thought about telling him?".
" No, I can't do that, what if he doesn't take it well". I say pulling out of the hug.
" Well it might be different now, he isn't married or engaged, so there is a possibility he might take it well".
" Yeah, when he tells me to give birth, hand him the baby, and disappear". I say, trying not to cry.
" Well, you can't hide it forever, and what would you tell your child, hey love I was scared to lose you so I didn't tell your father you existed, seriously eve, that would be a disaster". She was right but I didn't know what to do.
" I...I...". A knock on the door interrupted me.
" Who is it ". Beauty ask.
" Lady eve, lord Henry sent for you". The voice outside say, Henry?,he had sent for me, he wasn't bored, and I just couldn't help the little smile that crawled to my face.
" Okay". Beauty say and turn to me.
" Now it's your chance, to tell him ".
" No, beauty I can't, am not strong enough to accept it, if he doesn't take it well".
" If you don't try, we would never know". She say taking my hand and giving it a light squeeze.
" What if he doesn't believe it's his child". I ask another fear washing over me.
" Is he crazy, eve he was your first".
" It doesn't prove anything".
" Okay girl stop, just stop, he was your first, and you didn't ask for any of this, okay secretly you did, but my point is why would he think you would lie with something like this".
" You can do this". She finish.
" I .... I ..., Don't know how to tell him".
" Just say anything".
"What if I mess up".
" Geez eve, just use your words".
" Ok". I wisper and stand up, I walk towards the door but looked back to smile at her and she gave me her biggest smile, what would I do without her?.

I stared at the door, wondering what was talking her so long, and like she heard my complains she walked in glowing and her long black hair in a ponytail, I have always wonder why she always had her hair in a ponytail.
" My lord". She say bowing down.
" I didn't you would be so formal to someone who fucks you every day". I say dropping the paper in my hands, I wasn't even reading it.
" Are you mad at me?". She ask biting her lips, taking me by surprise, I was not expecting that question.
" No, why would you ask that?".
" You haven't sent for me in a week". So that was it, she thought I was mad, oh eve I wasn't mad I didn't want to get too comfortable, I wanted to say but I just shook my head, and gesture for her to come closer, she did and I pulled her into my lap.
" Sweetheart, I wasn't mad, just busy". I wisper close to her eyes, and I could feel my desires growing.
"H.... Henry I wanted to tell you something".
" What?". I ask pulling her closer.
" I.... I....., Please don't get angry".
" Hmmmm".
" I...I ...., Henry I ....". She fumbled and I just laughed, she was cute right now, and what was so hard to say,I took her dark hair in my fingers.
" Just talk eve".
"I....I.. please don't get mad". Okay now she got my attention, what was it?, Did she have sex with someone else?, I don't know why but the thought of that made me angry and hurt, fuck.
" Eve, talk".
" Am pregnant". She said so fast, that I was so sure I was hearing things, pregnant?.
" What did you say?". I ask staring at her, for that was the only words I could say, I just wanted to be sure I wasn't hearing things.
" Am pregnant". She wisper and I didn't know how to respond so I just froze, I wasn't expecting that, that I was going to be a father.
" I swear it's yours". Eve say and I noticed she was crying, did she think I would say it belonged to someone else, of course I know the baby's mine, I took her virginity, I just didn't know what to do.
" Please Henry say something". She wisper.
" How long". I say after such a long silence.
" Two weeks".
" And your just telling me now". I say trying not to yell,was she planning on keeping my child away from me.
" No, no, I only found out this morning". She said, and I signed relieved, I closed my eyes trying to imagine my baby if it is a girl, she would be a perfect combination of both me and eve.
" We would raise the baby together". I say opening my eyes.
" We?, Together?". She ask surprised.
" Yes, what did you expect?".
" I don't know, I thought you would want me to disappear the minute the baby is born". She say making me laugh, she really is something.
" No I won't do that,and I know what it means to not have both your parents, and I won't let my child go through that".
" You seriously want me to stay". She ask and I nodded.
" But am just a maid".
" We can fix that, you would be living here from now, I would tell the king and the queen, so you could be free and be the mother of my baby". I say and she stared at me with something I didn't want to accept.
" I... Can I?"
" What?", I ask and she stared at me before kissing me, it was a slow kiss like she was trying to tell me something, and after a while she pulled out, leaving us begging for air.
" I ..." She wisper.
" You?". I ask.
" Never mind". She said and I picked her up and walked towards my bed, which was ours now I placed her down and got in with her holding her, while she hugged me tight, I knew what she wanted to say, but I just wasn't ready again.

" We have already stationed the guards everywhere and we should be able to make a move by tomorrow". Levi explain
" It took me one month to plan this don't mess things up". I say staring at the pen in my hand.
" Are you sure we should do this". See what I mean annoying.
" Yes Levi, but your welcome to hug your wife in bed, while the real men do this".
" No, no it's fine ". He fumbled he was almost useless, Samuel was more useful but he backed out.
"What's the next plan ?".
" Getting the lion out". I say with a smirk this should be fun.
