"My Queen... The King wants to see you now."
"Okay. Tell him I'll be there in a minute."

The women nodded and closed the door slowly.
Finally. I wanted to talk to him for about 2 hours now. But all I heard was "I'm so sorry my love, but the conclave is here, and we have serious problems." But finally they're gone, so now I'll have Roan all for myself.
I closed the door of the bedroom, and I headed straight to the throne room, where Roan is. As I saw the door, I started to panic. A lot. I wanted so bad to talk to him, but didn't think what I will say. It's something important. And I don't have any idea how to say it.
And for the first time I thought: what if he'll leave me. Maybe he's not prepared. Maybe he doesn't want it. Maybe he doesn't love me enough for this.
I took a deep breath, and opened the door. Roan was on the balcony, and even if he wasn't facing me, I knew he was nervous. That didn't helped me. At all.

"Roan? You wanted to see me...?"

Then he faced me, and all I thought was true. He was so nervous. What if I've done something wrong?

"Yes, I want. I need to tell you something. I know you'll not like it, but..."
"Just tell me, Roan. I'm your wife, you have to tell me."

He looked straight into my eyes, and then kissed my forehead. Now he was scared.

"Well... You know I told you about the bunker that Skaikru found? We'll have to fight for it. Every clan will have a hero in battle."
"So who's Azgeda's hero?"

Then he lowered his gaze. He was trying to find his words, but failed.

"No, Roan... Please, no... You can't... You need to stay alive for me and all you're people. Send someone else, please."
"I'm the King. The decision was made. I can't do anything now. But I'll swear I'll not die. I can't leave you. I love you."
"I love you too, Roan..."

Then someone knocked on the door and entered the throne room.

"My King, you need to come with me. The fight is about to start."
"I'll be there immediately."

Then Roan returned to me. He lifted my head to look in his eyes. He was smiling, while I was just about to start crying.

"You wanted to talk with me too. What it was about?"
"Nothing. You need to go. I'll tell you when you'll win the fight."
"As my beautiful Queen wish."

Then he kissed me. In that moment I started to cry. I was so afraid. What if he'll not come back? What will I do?
But something else I regret with all my heart: I didn't told him...
