Chapter 309 - Couple’s First Quarrel (2) (2/2)

”Hmph, thank the heavens that I am here. I can help you.” Anatalia said with a proud face. ”I have some herbs that can help you with the nausea and vomiting. But remember, it will only lessen the symptoms, it will not disappear entirely.”

Anatalia took some herbs from my bag. She gave it to Tricia who was standing nearby.

”You can brew these herbs like how you brew tea leaves and give it to Alicia.” Anatalia said.

”Is this good to be taken by pregnant women?” William asked.

”Do not worry, these herbs do not have any harmful substance that can affect the fetus.” Anatalia said with a knowing tone. ”In fact, it contains nutrients that will help the fetus grow strong. My kind has used these kinds of herbs many times in pregnancy. Us sirens have the same constitution as human women, so no need to worry.” She replied skillfully.

I was relieved to know that we have someone that has knowledge on how to take care of pregnant women.

”It would be best if we can take her to a place where she could relax and feel safe.” Anatalia looked at me. ”Her body needs to rest. This travelling has made her body over fatigued.”

”I understand.” I replied. ”After you have rested well, we will ride on Tempest so that we can get to the port city in no time.

By horse ride, it would take about four to five hours until we arrive at the port city. But with Tempest, it will only take half an hour to get there.

”We will take Tricia and Anatalia with us to take care of you and your needs.” I added. ”William, I am sorry if I cannot take you with us because there will be no space left for you.”

At the moment, Tempest can only take a number of people along while travelling in the sky. I have chosen Tricia and Anatalia because they can take care of Alicia's needs. For guard duty, of course I can do it myself. Now that my wife is pregnant, I do not want to leave her side even more.

”I understand your majesty.” William said with a solemn face. ”What is important right now is to take her majesty to somewhere safe and where she could take full rest.”

”Thank you, William.” I said graciously.

”I will be riding with Captain Chris and the group in haste to follow you.” William said. ”I will go right now to inform Chris of your plans.”

”Yes.” I said and patted William's shoulders to show my gratitude.

”I am sorry my love.” Alicia said. ”I have become a burden to you.” She said with a frown.

”You are never a burden to me my wife.” I sat down beside her and held her hand. ”On the contrary, you have me given so much happiness with you carrying our child.”

I gently placed my hand over her belly. 'In here is the child that was born between me and Alicia's love.' I thought. My lips moved upwards into a gentle smile.

”Hehe, he or she is just a little apple seed now.” Alicia said. She placed her hands over my hand that was holding her belly. ”That was what I learned from the bridal lessons back in Jennovia.”

Hearing Jennovia just let me remember that b*stard of a crown prince and his mother. They let Alicia take bridal lessons, thinking that they will marry her to that son of a b*tch.

”Even if he or she is still little as an apple seed or a grain, I will protect he or she with everything I have.” I said with such deep emotions. ”I will protect the both of you, I swear.”

”I know.” Alicia smiled sweetly. ”Leon, I want to say sorry once again.”

”How many times do you want to apologize?” I smiled teasingly.

”Until you say you forgive me.” Alicia said. ”I have done something wrong that made you feel hurt, and so I am asking for your forgiveness.”

”Even though I told you that you do not need to apologize…” I said but my wife was staring at me persistently. ”All right, I give in. I forgive you in one condition.”

”And what is that?” Alicia looked at me with anticipation.

”Kiss me.” I pointed my lips as for her to know where. Alicia clearly blushed and it made me happy seeing her react this way.

Alicia then took the first step and leaned closer to me. I see her close her eyes when our faces were just inches away. I also closed my eyes and felt the touch of her lips on mine.

What I am feeling right now was such bliss. The love of my life is now carrying the proof of our love.
