Queen Without Crown

Chapter 36 Excited News

The inhabitants of the Elfian palace looked in amazement when they saw a Pegasus landing on the palace grounds. Especially seeing who was sitting on it.

King Satria descends with Queen Gita. Before the winged horse left, they thanked him. Queen Gita waved her hand and was countered with a pretty attraction in the air.

The Royal Staff and members of the Royal Council welcomed the sudden arrival of the King and Queen. They welcome Queen Gita who has just returned from exile.

King Satria immediately took Queen Gita to his residence. The king said that from now on Queen Gita will stay with him.

The Queen's two personal servants, Esme and Talitha, were immediately summoned.

"We are very pleased that His Majesty is able to return safely!" Esme wiped her tears as soon as she met Queen Gita.

"I'm also very happy. I often miss your carelessness!" Queen Gita laughed widely, feeling very relieved to finally be able to return to the palace.

"Your Majesty must have been very lonely while there! Unfortunately we were not allowed to come!" Talitha felt sorry.

"I was very lonely at first. But thanks to the kindness of Queen Malea, there are some forest fairies who came to accompany me." Answer Queen Gita.

"Queen Malea?" Ask them both simultaneously. The faces of both of them looked amazed.

"We've only heard his name. Queen Malea is a very wise Queen of the Elves." Thalita.

"I have never met myself, either, but the fairies have said so."

"Your Majesty is very lucky. Queen Malea must know the kindness of Her Majesty the Queen."

Queen Gita was pensive, eager for her to meet Queen Malea in person to express her gratitude.

"Does Your Majesty know what happened to Concubine Mayang?" Esme started the rumor.

"No. What's wrong with her?" Queen Gita nodded. Her heart ached when she remembered her husband's second woman.

"Mayang's concubine has been convicted. Her position as a concubine has been removed. And most horribly, he's been kicked out of this country!" In a soft but stressed voice, Esme told him everything she knew.

"Everyone in this palace already knew that he was the one who slandered His Majesty. Even he had once incarnated into a monstrous bird monster and terrorized the palace!" Imbuh Talitha shuddered.

Queen Gita is wide. He really did not expect that the woman would act that hard.

"Do you know why the King got hurt?" The woman was forced to ask her servants because her husband was reluctant to answer.

"It is said that the King was injured because he fought with a demon who possessed Consort Mayang. But we ourselves do not know the details." Reply Thalita again.

Queen Gita asks them to leave her first because they want to rest. Lately his body is tired faster.

After the two red-haired girls left, Queen Gita laid her body on the bed. It felt very comfortable, completely different from his bed in the cottage.

King Satria is not on duty today, he is just checking the list of candidates for the successor to the Chairman of the Royal Council. Then after he finished, he immediately returned to his residence.

Arriving at the room, he saw his wife was asleep. The woman's face was a bit pale. He thought about asking the healer to give him vitamins and check on his health.

Her hair is black. He could not imagine at all, how could the woman who had lived in the palace since childhood have to survive in the forest for almost two months. By himself!

King Satria hated himself. His wife's brow was full of regret.

Queen Gita woke up and saw her husband staring at her. The man's face looked sad.

"What's up?" Queen Gita was worried.

"There's nothing. I just missed you!" King Satria smiled.

"Why don't you rest? Isn't your wound not healed?" The woman got up and guided her husband to bed.

"Lay down, I'll call the healer."

Queen Gita covered him, then left. But just stepping, suddenly his hand was held back.

"Come here!" King Satria patted the bed next to him.

Queen Gita wanted to argue but her hand had been pulled, and she finally got back on the bed.

Queen Gita smiled at her husband's sleeping face. The face that he could only dream of. He caressed his cheek which was still a bit bruised, then he was kissed with affection.

The King of Satria suddenly opened his eyes. The man looked at her with a longing gaze, which successfully made Queen Gita's heart beat fast.

Then he pulled the nape of his wife gently, making their distance even closer. Queen Gita felt unable to resist her charm, finally closing her eyes.

Looking at the face of his dear wife, the lips of the woman were filled with longing. Instinctively the woman opened her mouth and let the man explore her sense of taste. The longer the deeper and more passionate.

A physician came to check on the King's condition. The deep wounds were expected to heal within two weeks, while the bruises and torn wounds on his lips could recover within a few days.

"Try to see Queen Gita!" King's Order.

The elderly physician examined Queen Gita's pulse. He slightly frowned and seemed to think of something. Then he took out a horn-like device from his bag and placed it in the stomach of Queen Gita, then attached the tip to her ear hole.

The man listened carefully, frowned again and then let go of the device.

"What does His Majesty feel? Are there any complaints?" The physician looked at Queen Gita from behind his glasses.

"Nothing, it's just that lately I've been feeling tired a lot." Answer Queen Gita.

"Does Your Majesty eat regularly? Feeling nauseous?"

"What's wrong? Is the stomach in trouble?" King Satria looked anxious, he immediately put his palm on his wife's forehead.

"I'm a bit nauseous in the morning, but I usually get better with warm tea." Queen Gita tried to get her husband's hand off her forehead.

"I've already assumed you're sick. From yesterday I noticed your face is very pale." King Satria ignored his rejection, he rubbed sweat on the woman's forehead.

The old healer was a little uneasy to see their affection. Then with a slight thump he continued his analysis.

"I suspect there is already a future heir to the Elfian throne in the Queen's womb!" He said with a bit of worry.

"What do you mean?" King Satria suddenly looked at the healer with a look of disbelief.

The old physician swallowed. He was afraid that his diagnosis would make the Elfian leader furious.

Queen Gita also looked at the physician with teary eyes. Both of his hands covered his mouth.

"I mean, Queen Gita is pregnant. But my estimate of the age of the womb is only a few weeks." Actually the physician was astonished by the pregnancy of Queen Gita. Because as far as she was concerned, Queen Gita was in seclusion for almost two months.

King Satria saw the confusion of the old physician. He hugged his wife while looking at the doctor.

"This baby is mine, Albus! Don't worry, I made it while visiting Queen Gita in the woods!" The man laughed happily.

Queen Gita slapped her husband's shoulder. Her face was red from the shame of hearing her husband's words.

"Ehemm, then congratulations Your Majesty!" The old physician was relieved.

"Immediately give vitamins to Queen Gita so as not to limp!"

"Okay, Your Majesty!" Answer the physician.

After the physician left, King Satria immediately sent Queen Gita back to bed. Then he called all the Queen's servants and gave instructions to pay more attention and take care of her condition.

"Eldrige, get ready! From now on you will become a grandfather!" Said King Satria when the elf came to see him in the study.

"Grandfather?" The elf looked confused.

"The Queen of Gita is pregnant with my son. If the baby is born, she will call you grandpa!" King Satria laughed happily.

"I'd rather be called uncle, if I didn't just call my name!" His protest.

"No.no! Your age is even older than my great-grandfather, so I'll have him call you K-A-K-E-K!" The king of Satria was curled up to hear his own joke.

Eldrige looked resentfully at the father-to-be. What if the boy really called him Grandpa? Is he that old? I don't know why she suddenly felt insecure.
