Pregnant For The Royal Prince

TERRY sighed deeply.

“I know all that My Prince, but my question is, how are you sure she was the one who sent it? How? You have no proof bro”, he said.

“She is, I just know she is. But why would she leave me? Why? That’s what I have been asking myself ever since”, he lamented.

Terry wasn’t satisfied.

“Maharana, there are people who are willing to walk down this thorny road with you, you aren’t alone. Just give them the go ahead”, he said.

“Can we just stop talking about this? I know it’s hard but I’m trying to leave with it, let’s just stop”, he said.

“Hmm Maharana, hmm”, he said.

“I will be leaving for Phoenix very soon, for the business training school, I am not yet done”, he said.

“Oh! You mean you took permission and returned?”

He nodded.

“It’s all a past now. It’s just some few things left to be done, and I will be back”, he said.

Just then, Terry’s phone rang and he picked it at once. It was his junior sis.

“Hey, what’s up?” He asked and waited for her to reply.

“What!” He suddenly exclaimed and Raghav turned to him.

“Jeez! Mom? How? How did it happen?” He questioned. Raghav just stared, hoping it wasn’t something that serious.

“Okay, you guys have taken her to the hospital right?”

“Alright then, just stay calm and let the doctors do their job, don’t panic, I will be right there”, he said and hung up.

“What is it?” Raghav asked.

“My old woman, she fell from the stairs”.

“What? How?” Raghav asked.

“I don’t know bro. I need to get going”, he got up, “don’t try anything stupid, I will keep in touch”, he said and left the room.

Raghav watched him leave and as soon as he left, his mother came in. He hissed and got up, walking to the bed.

He flopped on the bed and heard the series of greetings between his mother and Terry at the door.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

“Just got a bad news from home and that’s why I’m heading out”, Terry said.

“Oh, I hope it isn’t that bad?” Arya asked.

“I hope. I will keep in touch with you momma”, he pecked her on the cheek and rushed out.

“Alright dear”, she said and went into the room, properly locking up the door behind her.

“Hey son”, she called as she walked up to him. Well, she was actually aware of the happenings with Raghav and she could swear that she isn’t the one behind the text, she could swear for this one.

Although, she was happy the text had terminated all he wanted to do in order to find the pregnant lady, but she wasn’t the one who had sent it, and she was sure it wasn’t Vidya too, for she had warned her never to interfer into this but just let her do her things.

Who knows, it must have been Rina. But how has she gotten the phone? She didn’t care, as long as it had eased her works, she had even resolved she wasn’t gonna ask her anything, but just remind her, that the guards are watching.

“Son, why do you want to end your life untimely because of someone who doesn’t deserve it? Why?” She asked walking up to him.

Raghav cussed under his breath and ignored her, his head resting on the pillow and looking at the ceiling. Truly, he wasn’t ready for her drama.

Arya glanced at the dining and saw the food on the table, like it wasn’t even touched.

“My gee! Why are you starving yourself? Jeez Raghav! What is wrong with you?” She asked.

He kept her quiet and ignored her still, and kept on gazing at the ceiling. She sighed and sat next to him.

“Look son, I need to be very frank with you here, I have no hand in this text, I’m damn serious, I have nothing to do with it”, she said, but he still said nothing, keeping her mute.

She wasn’t deterred, and she continued talking non stop, talking about the King, his business training, and all that, till she got tired as all the while, he never replied any of her talks. She got up.

“I know you would be willing to talk to me soon, it’s just a matter of time. You would come back to mummy”, she smiled.

“Okay I will be leaving now, don’t try anything stupid son”, she said and left the room.

As soon as he noticed she had left, he got off the bed and walked up to the bar section, to have his succour, his only succour at the moment, to his satisfaction.

He opened the glass casing and singled out four different brands of half drunk liquor, and a single glass. Then he began pouring himself some wine, and he drank and drank.

At intervals, a big smile would play on his face and he would begin muttering wordings to himself.

“Rina since I can’t have you, I think I can have this”, he would say and gulp in some liquor, “my happiness at the moment, my only happiness”, he would continue muttering and drinking.

Soon he became drunk, and the next thing he fell on the floor, still holding onto one newly opened bottle and sipping at intervals.

His vision became blur, and his body very heavy, he couldn’t even lift up a part of it. So, he just laid there.

Minutes later the door opened and Vidya slowly entered.

Mrs Doween entered Rina’s room to find her shaking vigorously on the bed that fateful morning. Infact, she had been awake for like two hours ago, working at the kitchen and calling at Rina at intervals to join her, but she didn’t come out.

So Selena let her be, saying she needed rest and she alone finished the work. As soon as she was done, she went into her room, still surprised she wasn’t out of bed at that time, only to find her on the bed shivering, her teeth clanking at each other.

“Jeez! Rina!” She exclaimed and began shaking her, trying to shake her out of whatever it is that was the problem.

But Rina continued shaking and jerking, shivering vigorously like she was gonna die the next minute.

“Oh my God, Rina”, Selena said and immediately dashed out of the room, heading for the guards’ quarters beside the house.

She got one of them and asked him to place a call immediately to the nurse.

“Please, help me call the nurse to start coming over immediately, someone is dying”, she said in a rush.

“Do not panic ma’am, I will call her straightaway”, he said and put it into action.

Nurse Meda picked up immediately and the phone was handed to Selena to speak to her. She did, and the Nurse assured she was on her way.

“Just be calm okay, I will be right there”, she said and hung up.

Nurse Meda arrived the house in a few minutes and went into the room where Rina still laid, shaking.

She heaved a sigh of relief, it was a minor issue. Immediately, she went down to work. She administered Rina some injections and instantly, she calmed down, drifting into sleep.

“What was wrong Nurse?” Selena asked.

“Does she have her rest of recent? I mean sleep well and eat well?” Nurse Meda asked.

Selena sighed.

“I have to be frank with you here Nurse, she hardly sleeps, and she hardly eats. I have tried all I could but she just wouldn’t budge”, she complained.

“I understand the situation, you can help her out. It’s just depression and loneliness that is the cause of her problem right now, she’s depressed and lonely, but you can help her fight it”, she said.

Selena sighed again. The Nurse was right. Rina rarely eats food these days, even to sleep was a problem, she spends the whole of her night wetting her bed.

“I will try fight this Nurse, I will”, she said, determined to get Rina back on her feet.

“Please do. Immediately she wakes up, give her something to eat, and let her take her medications. She will be fine if she do”, she said.

“Okay, thank you”.

“I will be leaving now, lucky she has no antenatal today, until the day after tomorrow”.

“Yeah. Alright Nurse, till then”, and Nurse Meda left.

Vidya further walked into the room slowly, as she looked around. Her eyes caught the half eaten food on the dining table, and then Raghav on the floor, with the empty bottles strewn all around.

“Who is there? Is that you Rina? Have you returned to me?” He asked at intervals, smiling and muttering incoherent words to himself.

“Jeez! Maharana”, the words escaped her mouth in a low tune, her right hand cupped over her mouth, she couldn’t fathom the situation taking place.

She watched him from where she stood for a while, speaking hundred words in a minute, and sipping from the bottle in his hands.

She made no move to stop him, or even take the bottle of liquor from his hands, she just watched on helplessly.

Then after a few seconds, something struck her and she simpered, smiling mischievously.

“Ah ah, that is it”, she said and instantly walked back to the door and locked it properly, then came back.

She walked up to him and went down, slowly taking the bottle from his hands, which he clutched tighter.

“Maharana, you don’t need this, let me help you out”, she said in a whisper, trying to take the bottle from him.

“Huh? Who you?” He asked, his vision so blur to identify the intruder.

“It’s your betrothed, let me have this”, she said and finally freed the liquor from his hands.

“Who betrothed?” He asked again and belched loudly.

Vidya recoiled her face, his mouth reeked of alcohol. She ignored his many incoherent talks as she took off the shirt he was wearing, and his bare body stared at her.

“Holy Moly!”, she swallowed hard.

“Hmm, would I ever believe I would have this to myself someday?” She rhetorically asked, grinning.

“Up please, I need to get you to rest”, she said.

“Who is it? I ask again”, he questioned as he weakly got up, holding onto her.

“Nevermind who it is baby, you are safe”, she said and held onto him as well.

Damn it! This was indeed the best moment of her life, holding onto the Prince charming in that manner, like very close to her body.

As they got to the bed, she slowly made him lie down, undressed him, then proceeded to undress herself.
