Pregnant For The Royal Prince

THE duo couldn’t believe their ears, what kind of condition was this? What kind? Why was the Queen being so mean and difficult? How and why would Rina leave her child in the hands of the same woman who said the father of the child should never be informed he was going to have a child? How can she abandon her baby and leave? How?

No, this was too much, Rina couldn’t just take it. She opened her mouth to protest against it and Arya already noticing she was gonna make such move, raised her right hand up, as a sign to silence her. Reluctantly, she obeyed.

“Remember I said you have no option but to just agree to this. It isn’t negotiable”, she said.

Rina wasn’t satisfied.

“But your Majesty, I can’t leave my baby for anything. Alright fine, I agree to leave your son but just don’t take the baby away from me”, she pleaded.

Arya got pissed off and irritated. She stood up in anger.

“I am being too lenient with you guys here to be honest. Dean?” She called.

Dean walked up to her immediately.

“Your Grace”, he bowed.

“Call in one other guard, I want you people to go in there and assist them in bringing out their belongings”.

“Straightway your Majesty”, Dean replied and bowed, then went to call in one of the other guards outside. Then Arya turned to Rina and her mother.

“Now go in and don’t keep them waiting, they gonna help you pack your things, whatever you gonna need because you won’t be returning to Shimla again”, she said.

The duo just sat without making any move, they were still in shock. Dean and the guard entered.

Arya continued talking.

“You have to get all your things ready because you would be leaving first thing very early tomorrow morning, I don’t want the sunrise to meet us here”, she said, now walking to and fro the room.

“I know virtually everything you have was given you by my son, I’m gonna let you have your wardrobe, your clothes I mean. The car outside there would be confiscated, and so with some several other things”, she said.

Rina and her mother looked at each other, this was the worst day of their lives.

Dean walked up to the sitting duo and forced them to get up, talking rudely at them.

“Hey hey, take it easy on her Dean”, Arya said referring to the pregnant one. “Will you both get up from there and save time for me?” She shouted at them.

They scrambled up in a rush and went into their rooms, the guards followed.

Queen Arya kept pacing about, waiting for them. Suddenly, she realized something. Was there no phones in this house? Like communicating gadgets, especially that of Rina. She was going to confiscate that soon, all the while she would be waiting for her day of delivery, none of them gonna be in contact with anyone.

Soon Dean and Rina came out, her things in the room were few, because she had already taken out some of them earlier on.

“Where is your phone? Or should I say your phones?” Arya asked, looking at Rina. “Any communicating gadget in this house?” She added.

Jeez, that was when she remembered. She had even forgotten she was looking for her phone.

“I can’t find my phone Rani”, she said.

“Hey don’t give me that shit of lies, where the hell is your phone?” She asked again.

Then, Rina became befuddled. Although she never really cared about the phone but why the hell was she asking?

“I just told you the truth ma’am, I was actually looking for it when you arrived. But wait, why are you asking for my phone?” She asked.

“No communications all the while you and your mom would be in my house, waiting for your day of delivery”, she said.

Rina’s mouth fell wide open, jeez, this was prison right? A lockdown. God of the poor, she prayed again.

Arya turned to Dean.

“Go into her room and search for the phone, or any other communicating gadget”, she instructed.

“Yes your Majesty”, he bowed and left.

As soon as he left, the other guard with Selena entered, with the guard dragging her box. Arya turned to her.

“Where is your phone woman?” She demanded.

Selena was confused, as she looked from the Queen to Rina, and back to the Queen.

“What do you need that for? It’s my property”, she said.

“You won’t be in communication all the while you would be in my house”, Arya said.

“What! Why?” Selena asked. Rina just watched them, she was too weak to talk.

“Oh, you want me to leave you with phone, so that you can place a call to Raghav, or any other person for help right? So you can escape? Brava! You done well, but I’m more smarter”, she said.

Selena sighed, her shoulders fell. She was so disappointed. Just then Dean entered with the phone, Arya smiled with satisfaction.

“I seen it Rani, but I believe she was saying the truth about looking for it, because I used location to track it down”, he said.

“Whatever”, she said and rolled her eyes, took the phone from him and looked into it, jeez, her eyes widened. She saw the notification bar, it said twenty five missed calls from her son. Hmm, she simpered and handed it back to Dean. Then she turned to Selena.

“Where is yours?” She asked. Selena reluctantly gave it to her. She gave that to Dean too.

“Take out the sim cards in them, destroy them and destroy the phones”, she instructed.

Huh? They looked on, helplessly.

“I will get you guys another phone, when you are about leaving. I mean after delivery”, she said.

“Okay, so like I said, tomorrow very early in the morning, we leave. A guard gonna stay with you guys for the night, to make sure you don’t escape”, she paused and looked intently at them, then she continued,

“It was so good having this talk with you, and reasoning with you. Good night and see you tomorrow”, and finally, she left the house.

As soon as she left, Selena wailed out, her both hands on her head.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

“God! We are finished”, she lamented.

Rina who was already tired of crying, weakly walked to a seat and sat down. She was to weak to talk, although this was too much for her.

“How the hell did she even get to know about the pregnancy? How?” Selena continued.

Then she turned to her daughter.

“I told you about this Rina, I warned you, now look where it has ended, look”, she said.

Rina sighed, this wasn’t the time to apportion blames, whatever just happened, happened out of fate.

“I warned you at the very beginning of this relationship, but you refused to listen. Now look, we will spend nine to ten months of our lives like prisoners, house arrest, right? God!” she continued lamenting.

“Mum it is okay, I have decided to accept my fate, since that’s what God prepared for me as my fate, I have accepted it. There is absolutely nothing we can do”, Rina said.

“Really? Really? Do you know where you are going from here? What if she is taking us to have us killed in the woods or somewhere hidden? Who would know about that? Nobody, we will just die like chickens and forgotten about immediately”.

Rina sat up, even if the other ones didn’t get Rina, this got her. She thought about what her mother just said, it might be true, who knows? She said a little prayer.

“Nothing like that mom”, she said, “I have accepted my fate”.

Just then, they heard a little noise outside the house and became alert. Who was that? Then the door opened and a palace guard entered. It was the guard whom Arya has said would be with them.

“Oh, you?” Selena rhetorically asked.

“Yeah me”, he replied, “I will be watching over you guys as instructed by Her Grace…”, he paused.

“My gee, what says the time?” Selena asked him.

He looked at his wristwatch.

“5. 30, the time says 5. 30”.

“Jeez! We have really spent hours here”, Selena exclaimed, then got up, “I need to prepare something”, she said going into the kitchen.

At least, they need to eat, the stomach doesn’t care whether the body’s being tormented or something whenever it’s hungry, it just rumble and rumble.

“Don’t forget I’m here”, the guard called at her.

Rina scoffed, looking at him.
