Love Agreement With The King - Chapter 314
The invites were sent, the babies were still sleeping and John and Roselyn were decorating the house for the meeting.
Roselyn had meticulously placed roses of different shades of pink on the table between the food, then she let fall a cascade of petals on the floor.
The maids brought food from the kitchen and cleaned the house.
John walked behind Roselyn and he wrapped his hands around her hips hugging her from behind, Rose tilted her head to the side making John kiss her neck passionately as he whispered, “you’re glowering, my beautiful wife.”
Roselyn smiled, “it’s probably for pregnancy, skin gets smoother I heard.” Roselyn replied.
John stole a rose from the table and he tucked it in Roselyn’s hair.
The guests arrived and knocked on the door, the maids gazed at the couple and when they nodded they went to open to the guests.
“Hello!” Abigail cheered joyfully while walking hastily in.
“Good morning,” William said more minding his manners.
Roselyn smiled, gesturing to them to walk into the kitchen.
Abigail covered her mouth in surprise and awe, probably she understood what the decorations were for since she was aware of Rose’s pregnancy. Yet she didn’t say anything, she waited patiently for Roselyn to tell the new herself.
When William Abigail Victor and Ginevra all sat down, Roselyn took a deep breath, John held her head.
She looked at him waiting for him to give her a sign to approve she was the one to tell the news. When he nodded, Roselyn smiled. She darted her gaze to the guests and offered them a smile.
“We invited you because we have a new.” Roselyn started, taking another breath when she finished the sentence.
“The news is that I was pregnant. We kept the new secret because we didn’t want people to spread it and because, since I am a banshee not many banshees are lucky enough to succeed giving birth.” Roselyn said.
Victor dropped his jaw, he now understood why John was missing the last months and why he barely saw Roselyn.
William also was surprised, he had never asked Roselyn about the pregnancy and never talked to John about that for months so she didn’t know it was official since then.
Abigail’s smile grow huger in her face while Victor still surprised by the news kept darting his gaze back and forth from Roselyn and his wife. He had never heard of a banshee getting pregnant, if that was the case it meant she was the first one over decades to get that privilege. He comprehended John’s preoccupation, he would be deadly scared for his wife knowing many creatures would target her if they knew the news. But he could do nothing else than support them and hope Roselyn’s baby was fine.
“They are two twins and they are born yesterday,” Roselyn said.
The guest’s faces all turned excited, Abigail was even suffocating the cry as she tried her best not to scream and remain composed on the surface while all she wanted to do was run in her sister’s arms and hug her for such a splendid amazing new.
Roselyn walked away with John only to return to the room carrying the two babies.
When Abigail saw them she lost it and began to scream how happy she was for her sisters and that the babies were so cute.
William walked toward the couple as well, he looked down at the babies in awe, as his heart melted in happiness. He looked up not to tear up and Abigail nudged him, “moved huh? I am too,” Abigail whispered to him making the King chuckle.
John headed Elijah to Abigail and hugged his father, he knew how important it was for William to have a grandson, he had always wanted one for years and he was sure after Ethan’s death he had never stopped craving to give someone the effect he wasn’t able to give to Ethan during his childish.
“I can’t believe you did it,” William whispered as he melted in John’s tight embrace.
John smiled, his eyes filled with tears as well and he had to swallow down to suffocate them in time.
“I can’t believe either but I feel the luckiest man ever when I am with her. I am so overwhelmed with happiness and excitement. I wish I could be a father as good as you.” John said, unable to depart from the hug.
William’s heart doubled and his eyes collided with John’s as they stared at each other triumphantly, John’s gaze was full of gratitude as his father was the only one who had believed in John since the beginning when everyone else was doubting him and judging him. While William stared at his son proudly, for having fulfilled one of his biggest dream of giving the realm an heir and forming a family with a woman he truly loved.
Roselyn walked closer to her mother, carrying Felicity. Ginevra smiled, she had her mouth covered with her shaky hand as she looked at the baby move,
“Hii,” Ginevra whispered leaning her hand to caress the baby’s cheek and then took it from Roselyn’s hands to rock it.
“She has the same beautiful big brown eyes,” Ginevra said and Abigail nodded to confirm she thought the same.
“And she has John’s defined jaw,” Abigail added.
The baby bubble made the three of them hold their breath to enjoy that sweet sound.
Ginevra headed the baby to Abigail who placed a soft kiss on the baby’s cheek before rocking it.
“What’s her name?” Abigail asked Rose who smiled as reminded the baby she met at the orphanage.
“Her name is Felicity. When I visited the orphanage I met a beautiful kind baby whose name was Felicity who explained to me the deep meaning behind it.” Roselyn caressed her baby’s shoulder and took her little hand.
“The meaning is happiness, I liked the day of her bringing happiness whenever she went. Moreover, she will always be mine and John’s happiness..” Roselyn said.
