Coronation Day

The days up to the coronation went by slower than Katie would have liked. Without her strength returning like it normally did, the girl resorted to reserving what was left of it which limited her movements and hangout areas down to the king's chambers and the gardens… on occasion.

Cole stopped pushing her to do anything that would exert her in the slightest and checked up on her far more times than she preferred. Regardless of how sweet his checkups were, they only reminded her that she was worrying everyone about her condition.

Cole's frequent checkups also reminded her that he was now getting better at masking his worry. Either that or the king actually missed her presence so much that he found himself returning to her many times through the day, 'It's not like he sleeps somewhere else in the night, sheesh…' Katie was not complaining. Her inner selfish princess loved the attention she got from her mate.
