Katchan's POV
I rolled my eyes at the knowledge of it, "so... What do you want?" I asked trying to force a smile
"Well...." She said pouting her lips "in order to make you mine forever, I would like us to consummate before your departure" she Sadi smiling sheepishly
"Who gave you that idea?" I asked with a slight frown
"Well I thought of that myself, I mean we'll be a couple soon I can't wait for the world to notice us" she said
My eyes widened "how could you let such thought get into your mind?" I asked
"It's cause I love you prince" she said bowing her head in shame
"Ugh" I sighed, "well.. look" I tried saying raising her chin "even if I go to the seven realms of the world I'll still return and eventually get married to you" I said unlocking our entwined hands those words felt sour in my mouth and I couldn't hide the expression
"Well my prince, you have to meet with my demands and you must" she said authoritatively, I turned my gaze to her,
"I'm the prince here, I do whatever I want, and you must accept my own decision" I retorted
"My prince....
"Listen to me kushi, I don't have to do your bidding" I said already becoming irritated
"You must" she half shouted " I can't let you leave without giving me a child, that'll be the only assurance I'll have that you're gonna come back to me" she said sobbing
"You have to or I'll have to report you to king juka" she said, I knew better than to reply her as I stood and watched the crowd do their thing
Wolf kingdom
Everywhere was in chaos as everyone was finding a way to leave the kingdom
"Wait! Wait!! Order!!!" King gedrick commanded at the crowd, most of them were with their babies crying and panicking,
Some of them had some burns on their skin as an effect of the moon not excluding the king
"The sorceress would be here to teleprot us to the human kingdom or tell is what to do to appease this situation, just be patient, we'll try our possible best to help everyone" he said trying to calm the people and give them hope
The sound of a horn from a distant place was heard indicating that the attention of the king was needed, he ordered the guards to take care of the situation and ran in the direction of the fire set in a wood
He ran towards the hut as their palace have been burnt down as a result of the current incident, they had managed to put together some woods and hoped it would protect the mother and child, on getting there he met the midwife
Gedrick's POV
"How are they?' I asked the midwife, she was also affected by the moon but tried to help my wife deliver
"Please come in my king" she said gesturing him to go with her inside the hut, trembling with curiosity and happiness to see my child and wife I went in with her
"Noooo!!!" I cried running to the bed, on it lay some ashes, "no" I muttered carrying up some ashes
"What.. what is this" I asked turning to the midwife looking terrified by the sight
"My king " she bowed trembling
"What is this" I shouted not able to control my emotions, my voice growling my wolf was on the edge and I was trying hard to tame it
"My king... Your... Your wife was burnt to ashes while birthing your child" she said tears trickling down her eyes
I wondered how she must have felt experiencing the terrible sight of how my wife was burnt to ashes
"And the baby?, What about the child?" I asked after realizing my self
"I had to save" she said and showed a shawl "it's a girl" she added smiling
My daughter lay there curled up like a little snake, sleeping peacefully under the protection of it's mother
I looked at her with joy as I took her away from the hands of the midwife
"But my king, she hasn't cried even after birth, I'm...I'm...I'm not sure if she's alive"she said fear laced in her voice
"She is fine, she just needs a little sleep, I assure you that she'll be awake in a little time" I said looking at her pretty face, although she didn't move, I had a hunch that she was alive
"Can I get some privacy?" I asked still staring at my little girl
"Yes my king" she replied with a bow and left, I raised the little girl is in my arms, and touched her forehead, it was soft and lovely but she didn't open her eyes or move
"I sighed, I had to trust my heart on this "hello, this is Papa talking.... I....I want to say welcome to the world" I said having high hopes that she might open her eyes
Seeing no sign I sighed again "well, since going don't want to talk to Papa then I have this little gift for you, I wanted you to see it now, but then you can always see it when you grow up right?" I asked and smiled
Dipping my hands into the pocket of my suite trouser i brought out a necklace it had a gate like pendant locking it on her little neck, I smiled "it looks perfect on you, but you don't need to worry about it being heavy for now, when you grow it'll become light I said
"My king the sorceress is here" a guard standing on watch said from outside,
"Send her in" I ordered and in few minutes she came in I turned to her still holding my little girl in my hands
"My king" she bowed as she came in
"My people are in trouble, what do you have to say about it, what can we do to stop this, and how do we prevent it in future?" I asked
Sorceress POV
I trailed my eyes down to the wrapped being in his hands, she looked beautiful and lovely
"The problem I'd with us" I said still staring at the baby
"What and who is the problem, what can we do to that person to stop the hurt the moon goddess is causing in us" he asked
"Kill such person of eliminate anything which stands to be the cause of this problem " I said
"Well then pass out my decree, anyone found to be the cause of our predicament should be.....
"Hold in my king.... The cause of our problem is with you" I said my eyes never leaving the baby
