Just then, Queen Danika cried out loudly in pain, holding her waist. Her water broke.

Chaos broke out in the Royal Court. The Ministers were filled with fear. The guards ran into the Royal Court to await a command from their Queen.

"Shit!!" The word tore from King Lucien's throat. He turned towards Danika, "What's going on?"

"My waist! It hurts!" The Queen cried. Holding her waist like a lifeline, she bent over, trying to find a position that'll relieve the pain. There was none.

"The Kingdom is under attack!!" Another guard shouted, raising his voice about the loud crashes outside and the chaotic noises of the people inside the Court.

"Heavens!" King Lucien lowered down to become eye level with her belly, he placed his hand on the bump and caressed it, "Not now, son. It's not safe. Please, you have to help your mother and I. Hold on for a little while, will you?"

"Go..! Please," Danika breathed, staring at her King, her eyes a cloud of pain and love. "Please, go and protect our King. Fight f-for our Kingdom. I'm fine, I'm fine..."

"No. No, I can't leave you alone like this, dammit!" His hand in her waist tightened.

For the first time, Danika heard the desperation in that voice of his that is always as calm as the waters.

She placed her hand over his on her belly, "No, our Kingdom will be lost, My King. You h-have to fight for us... For our future..." It was getting harder to talk, her body feeling like it has been lit on fire.

She pulled on, "The people are already l-losing their lives! They need a leader to lead them t-through this war, so—" A cry tore from her throat.

"Dammit! CHAAAD!" The King shouted, catching his Queen as the pain threatened to bring her to her knees.

Chad ran forward, "Your Highness."

"Take her to her bedroom! Find Baski and your wife! Send out a few guards to go and get the royal medicine man for her!"

"With immediate effect." Chad bent and lifted a panting Queen Danika into his arms. She clung to him, crying out as another wave of pain hit her.

King Lucien dabbed the sweat on her forehead with his knuckles. "I will be back, Danika. Please, hang in there. You have always been strong... Today, I need you to keep being strong for me, and for our son."

She nodded her head vigorously, "Okay, okay."

He turned to leave—

She grabbed hold of his arm.
