Love Agreement With The King

Chapter 264 - Girl Or Boy

After that gesture silence filled the room John seemed all of a sudden convinced and trusting the maid, Roselyn wondered why a precious stone would change the situation. All the maids nodded to John when his gaze traveled through them asking for approval.

"About that, I have to tell you a secret. Shapeshifting demons had invaded our land, someone got them free. The worst thing is that they are affecting animals. They seem to have a bigger purpose." John sighed preoccupied, the maids changed their facial expressions in sync into a concerned one.

"Demons? This is not a good sign." One of the maids commented while the other ones shook their heads in worry.

"I'm working with Ethan and Victor to plan to attack them. But they are so many and strong I may need more help." John continued, sighing.

He glanced at Roselyn hinting at a smile, "the main problem is that now she is pregnant. If they find out about that…" John couldn't even finish his sentence that his voice broke, he couldn't even think about the drastic consequences.

"What could happen if they find out?" Roselyn murmured and all the maids looked at each other, they seemed concerned about Roselyn's reaction.

"John.." Roselyn murmured preoccupied of that atmosphere that her eyes begged for answers.

John sighed, pulling his hair behind. He slipped his hands on his pockets and took a long breath.

"They could try to kill you and steal the baby if its strength attracts them," John replied following his words with another deep breath.

"I won't let them." Roselyn clenched her fists as her heart began to thrum in her chest, only the thought of losing the baby after all her efforts were driving her crazy.

"Me neither," John replied right away.

"I will help you to fight them." One of the maids took a step forward, making the remaining lady all turn their heads toward her to look at her over.

"I will help too." Another maid added taking a step forward.

In few seconds two other maids offered their help and in a matter of a minute, all the maids offered their help.

John smiled at them, moved by their gesture, he had never talked to them much so that was the first time he saw them making a good gesture and behaving like emphatic human beings.

"If you have someone who you fully trust on who may join us. The more we are the easier we will defeat them." John said, making the maid nod altogether.

"We will have few people who we trust and who join us in battles." One of the maid replied smiling kindly. After that new they seemed even more motivated to help them.

John smiled, "it sounds perfect."

John told them to take the day free so that they could reconsider their decision, it was a hard choice and they could think about it.

As soon as they left John said he wanted to talk to Roselyn, since she heard about the demons he also wanted to tell her of the news he discovered recently, that Sharon somehow was allied with the demons.

"When I left earlier I visited the castle. I felt a snake spying on us so I attacked him in search of information." John started, catching Roselyn's attention as she had sat down and was serving her food.

"What did the snake tell you?" Roselyn asked biting her food.

John cleared his voice, he took few steps forward to the table getting closer to Rose.

"He told me he wasn't spying on us but he was looking for Sharon," John said, Roselyn freeze to shake he hear right after.

"It can't be." She commented, "Maybe he was lying. We can't trust them." Roselyn replied in disbelief.

"We have to keep that into account," John observed.

Roselyn folded her arms as she curved her eyebrows, "I defeated her once already, I can do it again."

John smiled as he dragged a chair closer to Roselyn to sit near her, "I know you can but it's better if you don't join the battle, just wait for me at home." John observed Roselyn didn't seem willing to give up and let John take care of the situation on his own. She wanted to help them especially if Sharon was involved too.

"You stay at home." John insisted reading Roselyn's gaze not accepting his suggestion.

"Remember when you as a banshee could feel she was pregnant? She can do the same thing with you. And we both know how cruel Sharon is, she will do everything to give you sufferance." John observed having Roselyn sigh acknowledging he indeed had a point.

"Alright, then. But then make sure don't get hurt because if you do I will intervene to save you." Roselyn commented, she stood up and pointed her finger against John's chest to threaten him. He chuckled amused by Roselyn's statement and then nodded.

"I won't get harm, I promise." He smiled pushing Roselyn closer to him, she sat on his lap and caressed his neck.

"We will do it. Won't we?" She whispered gazing at him for approval and to find an answer to her concerns.

"We will." He replied leaning closer and locking his lips on her. They kissed passionately and sweetly until John departed and took some food with his fork. Roselyn opened her mouth and took a bite. She smiled.

"Thank you."

John caressed Roselyn's belly, he tilted his head to the side.

"Have you thought about a name yet?" He asked.

"Not yet. We can think of it together." Roselyn replied.

"But we have to find out if it's a boy or a girl first," Roselyn said, she covered John's hand with her own.

"To ensure your descent its shall be a boy…" Roselyn murmured, it was already rare she successfully got pregnant, if it was a girl maybe she would never be able to get pregnant once again and have a boy.

Roselyn sighed concerned she just realized that now and now she was worried.
