Love Agreement With The King

Chapter 261 - You Should Rest

John made the maids went to the grocery shop to buy every kind of food to allow Roselyn to eat whatever she wanted and have a vast chance of food. 

Meantime he was standing near Roselyn's bed to help her in case she needed anything, he was like a supervisor. 

At first, Roselyn found it oddly sweet but then she repeated to him she didn't need any help and that she was able to do the things on her own as it was only the first day of pregnancy.

Yet John didn't want to hear her complaints and every time she tried to stand up from the bed he pushed her down gently saying, "you shouldn't move. You should rest." 

He even curved his eyebrow to scold her with his severe facial expression.

Until Roselyn gave up and decided not to move since all her efforts were in vain, John sat on the edge of the bed and fixed her sheets as she caressed her knees.

"We shouldn't tell anyone about your pregnancy," John suggested as he slightly narrowed his eyes.

Roselyn looked at him confused as she wasn't fully understanding why they should keep such a good new secret.

John took a long deep breath, "you're a banshee and I told you how much irisky for the banshee is to procreate because of your great powers, and people either will be jealous or scared of you." He leaned closer and took her hand.

Roselyn nodded, recognizing he was indeed right and she didn't want to risk losing her son since that may be the only chance she could get be pregnant.

Even if she wanted to tell the entire world about her pregnancy and that her dream was fulfilled she knew she had to listen to John's advice. How she wished she could tell at least Abigail so that they would share their pregnancy even if Abigail was already ahead in the pregnancy.

"Wouldn't it be suspicious if I don't leave the house all of a sudden? They will start to wonder what happened to me." Roselyn frowned her forehead as she sighed, she didn't want to be locked in the house either.

"You will still go out, but you have to stay closer to me so I can keep an eye on you and protect you," John replied, his voice peaked revealing his concern about that situation and Roselyn's health.

Roselyn chuckled, he turned even more considerate and protective than usual.

"You will be my bodyguard?" Roselyn inquired amused as she hinted a grin. John shrugged leaning closer to her.

"If I have to, I will be. Your and his or her bodyguard." He rectified gazing at her and then at her belly making Roselyn smile unconsciously.

Even if it may feel weird she could feel a life growing inside her and that feeling made her feel even more powerful than when she fought against the supernatural army, that feeling made her feel undefeatable and like if she finally did one right this in his life.

The maids knocked on the door and John told them to walk in, they were carrying trays filled with foods like toasted bread with eggs on it, different kinds of soups, and cooked meat.

Roselyn bit her tongue not to laugh, did John think she was a vampire, how could she think she would be able to eat all that food? Didn't he know her craving hadn't started yet? He had never been that considerate before and Roselyn wasn't used to it.

The maids had so many trays that they didn't even know where to place those. There were no tables in their bedroom and the bedside table was too small to carry all the trays

"Roselyn, what food do you want? So if you can pick I will send the maids away with the rest of the trays." John said solving the situation in the blink of an eye, Roselyn cleared her voice, she wasn't very hungry but how could she say that after they carried all the trays there?

She pointed at the omelets, "thank you." she whispered to them as they placed the tray on the bedside table, then they all left in a row.

John headed her the omelet and Roselyn smiled, "do I have to remind you that I am not a vampire and I am not as hungry as my sister?"

John shook his head, "yet, you still need energy so eat your food." He didn't want to hear excuses and he headed her the dish.

Roselyn played with the fork before she cut the eggs and took few bites to place the dish back to the bedside table.

"I will keep it here in case you get hungry later," John said making Roselyn giggle as she nodded.

"Now, since I have to take care of you even more after such great news..." John said as he turned his head around the door. "Come in." He said louder and a second after few maids walked in carrying jars of creams and lotion for the body.

Roselyn gazed at them confused but before she could ask them an explanation they had already put cream all over Roselyn's knee and calf and started to massage it delicately.

Their hands were practical like if they used to do massages for years, the maid on the right, that was massaging Roselyn's right calf had a more delicate touch yet so relaxing she could feel her tension release at her touch, while the maid on the left who massaged her left leg had a more mighty way to massage yet Roselyn enjoy it.

She could feel all her stress and tiredness in her body being released and her muscles relaxed. Even if she didn't need that she still was glad John had thought such a nice gesture for her.

"We also have some special lotion obtained from candles, do you want us to apply that too?" One of the two maids asked and Roselyn unconsciously smirked at that sentence remembered her more.. John, deciphering her thoughts smirked as well.
