Fayre had been enjoying the extra time her husband had spent with her ever since that assassination attempt . He had always spent plenty of time with her but now, because of how worried he was, he was spending an extra hour or two with her each day .
He did not want her to be alone and so he would not leave her side in the mornings until Zylvia would arrive to keep her company . And Zylvia slept longer than Fayre and her husband, making it so that the time would be longer than fifteen minutes at most . Fayre knew that some of this had to be Kaldrek's fault, as Zylvia had never been the lazy sort .
But not only did she get some extra time from waiting in the mornings but Kaldrek would often borrow Zylvia . For practice . He would always let Jayesh know first so that her husband could spend time with her . It was wonderful, especially as she craved attention from her husband due to the hormones from her pregnancy .
Today was no exception . Jayesh was waiting with her and taking complete advantage of the fact that they were alone by continuously sneaking kisses from her . Not that anyone would dare say something to the king about this action . Well, Kaldrek might . But only teasingly .

Fayre did not mind her husband's actions . She was glad that they were alone as she did not want others to be scarred by her husband's affectionate nature . She personally loved this about him but she was aware that they had quite a few innocent servants who really did not need to see the way Jayesh treated her .
How she had lucked out to catch this man, who could have had any girl he wanted, she had no idea . And never would be able to fathom it fully . But that did not matter . What mattered was that she had, the why or how was unimportant .
She was enjoying a long passionate kiss with her husband when she heard a clearing throat . Reluctantly, she and Jayesh pulled apart and looked at Kaldrek .
The young sorcerer had an eyebrow slightly raised, and a somewhat teasing tilt to his lips . He had Zylvia's arm tucked into his own, which always looked sweet and mild enough that it was not overwhelmingly affectionate . She would tease him about it but had yet to come up with anything .
"Mornn' you two . If you need more time together than Zylv and I can leave for a few minutes . " Kaldrek grinned as he spoke .
Fayre saw the look in her husband's eye that was considering it . With a sigh she shook her head at him, "That will not be necessary . I am sure my husband has things he needs to be doing . "
"Nothing is more important than my queen! If my queen needs me then I must be there for her . " Jayesh leaned into her wrapping his arms and hands around her .
She giggled, "I know and I am sure they know as well, my king . But I want to spend some time with Zylv . "
She shooed both of the men away and pulled Zylvia in to the room to do some work . She felt so excited about her baby and wanted to talk about it with her closest friend . Zylvia hardly resisted, though Fayre caught the way she looked at Kaldrek as she was pulled away from him .
It was a look he returned . Fayre hid a slight smile at the two newlyweds . It was a little odd to see the look of undisguised infatuation in Kaldrek's eyes as he tended to have a more reserved character but she felt happy that he felt so deeply for Zylvia that it showed on his face, especially his eyes .
She decided not to tease her friend about it as she did not really want to disturb that sweet moment . Instead she sat down and picked up what she had been working on . They already had a small pile of baby clothes ready for the little royal baby that was on its way .
Fayre smiled at her best friend and wondered quietly how soon her friend could join her in becoming a mother . If it would take her nearly as long or if it would be much quicker .
Zylvia met her gaze a bit confused . She set her work down as she asked if everything was okay . It was so typically Zylvia that Fayre smiled .
"Nothing, I was just thinking that I can hardly wait for you and Kaldrek to have a kid . "
As soon as the words left Fayre's mouth a huge blush came to Zylvia's cheeks . " I, uh, huh . I guess whenever we are blessed with the wonders of parenthood . "
Fayre listened to her friend's flustered voice and smiled to herself . Zylvia may not be the most vocal about it but her statements such as this one clearly showed those who knew her that she did want kids .
