A/N: hey loves! This chapter is a bit on the short side but the next chapter kind of compensates for that?
Kisses,

I stood staring, mesmerised by the stars for a moment. It was the first moment of peace I'd had all evening and I was grateful for it.

"Beautiful aren't they?" He whispered into my ear.

"You're highness. What are you doing here on the balcony when you should be inside with your many many guests and admirers?"

"I needed a break from all the questions and demonstrations of appreciation. I'm pretty sure half those people would kiss my ass if it meant they'd be in my favour."

"Well you are the King." I chuckled.

"So what are you thinking about?"

"Nothing." I sighed.

"Well you're looking at the stars deep in thought. Plus, you crinkle your forehead like a puppy when you're thinking."

"I do not. You're so annoying!"

"Ahh now I may have to punish you for treason mi amor." He said, wrapping his arms tightly around my waist.

"Oh really?"

"Hey you two! No more punishment we've already got one bun in the oven. Speaking of which, I think it's time to tell your people the good news." Xavier called, coming onto the balcony.

It wasn't the traditional way of announcing a royal baby, but Julius and I had decided to announce "our" pregnancy ourselves.

"Shall we m'lady?" Julius asked, his arm extended for me

"Why yes. Yes we shall." I laughed, taking his arm.

Hand in hand, we walked back into the ballroom and onto the stage at the very front, which immediately gained the attention of the people.

"Good evening everyone. I hope that you are all enjoying yourselves. To conclude this celebration, My Queen and I have some news to share with you all." Julius took a breath, staring at me.

"The King and I are expecting our first child and heir."

The crowd clapped and cheered upon hearing the news. The news of an heir to the throne I had learnt was always very exciting. The child was from birth, the future ruler of the kingdom, meaning that his/her birth and upbringing was incredibly important. It was vital that the child was brought up with the values and attributes of a leader.

"No pressure little one." I whispered, touching my stomach.

We were to stay over at the palace for a few days, and naturally our entire household tagged along.

Julius and I chose the master bedroom on the third floor and lucky for us, the palace itself had been modernised.

"A palace with an elevator? It's like Barbie's dreamhouse without all the pink!" Penny squealed.

I stood in front of my full length mirror, rubbing my stomach thoughtfully.

"I'm the Queen of werewolves, half angel and I'm pregnant. Nope I still don't believe it."

"Well believe it girl because that is your reality. Alina laughed, making herself comfortable in my bed.

"So I'm guessing you don't want to know the sex until you have the baby."

"Yeah it will be a nice little surprise."

"And have you thought about how you want to give birth?"
