Chapter 369 – A Paranoid Woman – I

*I would urge you to look again at the previous two chapters. I missed uploading one chapter. Sorry!*

While she continued to think about it, Adaline did not notice when Xavier crossed the distance from the gardens on the outside to the room of the king and queen. 

She was brought out as her thoughts when she was placed on a soft surface which was their bed and they were a group of concerned-looking people standing beside and at the entrance of the room. 

"Check her," Xavier growled out, barely suppressing his protective instincts when it came to his queen. 

Two people from the group came forward and both of them were females. One was a healer and one was a doctor, a physician.

"I can already tell what is wrong with her," the healer said," it had been too long already. It is about time we witnessed the symptoms."

Adaline noticed the physician gave a side eye to the healer before muttering under her breath, " at least let me be sure after checking her. How can you just announce it?"

"There is nothing more left to announce." smiling, the healer kneeled in front of the Queen before she turned her head to address the king, "you have not noticed it here because females usually noticed it among themselves first." 

Xavier frowned, "what?" 

The healer nodded and turned to Adaline to touch her stomach, "The Queen is with her first child."

"First?" Adaline mumbled.

"Child?" Xavier repeated, and in the same tone that she had used. "Adaline is pregnant?"

"Yes, your highness, the Queen is with the possible heir of the kingdom." 

Still surprised by the sudden outcome of the situation, they both stared at each other before and Adaline broke their stairs only to look down on her stomach that still looked too flat. 

"A baby.." She muttered under her breath, still staring at the flat stomach as if there would be some symbol of pregnancy visible to her. " I really don't feel like it." She looked up for an answer. 

The physician chuckled lightly. "To be honest, the baby is quite small and only a trained physician or an experienced healer can tell by descent and the symptoms. It will take another week at most." 

The last sentence was directed towards Xavier who as Adaline stared at her belly and nodded absentmindedly. 

"Leave, leave all of you. We can do the test tomorrow morning." 

At the word of the king, it did not take them long before all of them were out of the room and they heard the door close. 

When they were all gone, Adaline looked back at her stomach thinking why she was not freaking out. Maybe she was in shock. Maybe she was aware about the amount of sex they had been having without any kind of full control.

"I am pregnant, Xavier," she whispered slowly and steadily. "Can you believe it?" 

He tsked, "I mean we have been having a lot of sex so that was a given." 

Adaline chuckled uncharacteristically, "Not what I meant." 

"I know what you meant," Xavier said as he kneeled down in front of her, "I was not expecting it just as you were."

She knew that. 

The thought of a child had been far away from her mind. In fact she had not even bothered to think about it in the first place. How casually could she have forgotten this possibility with the amount of sex that they have been having? 

But nothing could change the reality that there was something inside her, breathing and living, who was about to throw into a little baby and then an adult soon. 

"Hey," he took her hands in his, making her look at him, "i know what happened in the past is giving you doubts about whether or not it is the right time to have this child but I promise you adaline, this time I am going to text the child with everything I have in me." 

She had not even considered the past yet but okay, now she would. 

"Pregnant," she whispered and blew out a breath, "why do I have such a hard time believing it?" 

"I don't know," Xavier sighed and stared at her stomach with a disbelieving expression, "maybe because we had not planned this?"

"Maybe," she agreed. This was definitely a shock. 

After some time, after some in depth thinking, Adaline looked at him. "Do you think we could be good parents, Xavier?"

"Yes," he answered without missing a beat. "I know that no matter what, you and I are going to be the best parents we can ever be." 

When he said that, she believed him. It was hardly ever that he lied to her and when he had hidden a big truth from her, he had definitely learnt his lesson. 

But that was not the point. The point was he was going to be a great father and she was going to be a great mom or at least she was going to try to be one.

The baby might not have been planned but it was a possibility that both of them ignored day and night when they were having sex. So why back out of the beautiful consequences that they were going to face now?

As a king he was rich and even if he was not they had a company back home that was in their name. So they were always going to get by and this child to be protected by everyone in the kingdom. 

The timing might not be right or planned, but it was the reality and Adaline was ready to accept it. 

"My aunt will kill you." She joked. "She specifically told you nothing for five years at least." 

Xavier scoffed. "I'd like to see her try." Sighing in contentment, he kissed her hands. "Ready to become parents, my love? It all depends on you. Whatever you want. Nothing will go out of these walls." 

The fact that he was giving her a choice and the one that he might not personally agree with, was big enough to provide evidence to her question that he was going to be the best husband to her and the best father to their child. 

She smiled and chucked before kissing his forehead.. "I think we should decide on a day for the announcement."
