CHAPTER 14: I AM CLOSE BY
SERAPHINE'S POV
Chapter 13
Seraphine pov
"Keal....." I broke down in tears "where have you been" i hit his chest few times but he hugged me tighter and said "sorry, love... I'm here now" his words comforted me and soon i stopped crying. "Prepare a feast for our king, lets celebrate his safe return" maximus the eldest man in the Bermuda said. I still don't know if to call this place a kingdom, a community or a village.
"Uhm... Kael.." i want to tell him about the pregnancy but he looked very tired "never mind, we'll talk tomorrow you should rest. Lets go inside" i said
"Are you sure? We can talk now." He responded with a dull expression, no we can't talk now not while he's like this ,"i'm sure. Let's go inside" He nodded firmly in agreement.
"Maximus, let the celebration wait till tomorrow, his majesty needs rest first" Fredric said behind us . "Thank you, Fred" kael told him and we went inside the castle.
"Let me prepare a bath for you" i was about to walk into the bathroom when he grabbed my wrist and pulled me towards him then he snaked his hands around my waist "just stay like this for a moment" he said huskily. His actions made my heart flutter, as i touched his head, i saw flashes of a little boy, i didn't see anything clearly because they just sort of rushed over like a distant memory., But wait that little boy was that kael? "Seraph, what's wrong" kael asked his voice laced with worry and concern bringing me out of my daze. "oh, its nothing" i said, he looked at me skeptically but didn't press the matter further.
KAEL'S POV
Seraph is acting a little weird but i won't push her buttons if there's something she intends to tell me i'm sure she will, eventually. Earlier outside,.... Did she want to tell me about the pregnancy?... I already confirmed it when i hugged her i heard two heartbeats, hers and a little faint one.
As seraph went to the bathroom to prepare a bath for me, i sensed someone's presence, the aura was familiar. I realised its the woman from my dreams and the stable. "Show yourself, i know you're here" i looked around the room.
"You have a great sense, just like your father" she came out of the shadows, long silky black hair just like mine her eyes were pitch black exactly how mine become when i let my dark side take over.
"Who really are you" i asked and just then seraph came out of the bathroom she looked surprised "you are the woman that has been coming to watch me at night, correct?" Seraph asked, wait this woman who claims to be my mother comes to see seraph?
"I mean no harm son," she said as if sensing my suspicion "when you are ready to know the truth, come find me, i am close by" and with that she vanished into the darkness.
"Wha..what was that? And did she call you son? I thought your mother was dead?" Seraph bombarded me with so many questions. "I will answer your questions as soon as me myself gets the answers" i responded and went to bath, leaving the flustered seraph.
