An hour later, she was at the backyard watching Remeta and Corna play around. They were chasing after one insect or another, laughing and playing.
Little Corna seem happier, and he has been, since the arrival of his little sister, a month ago. Danika can still remember visiting the family after Haydara gave birth.
The happiness from the couple was contagious, and longing had speared her. Longing to have her own son in her arms.
As she watched the way Gunther crowded his wife from behind and smiling so joyously at the small baby...she couldn't help imagining the King like that with their own baby.
Will he smile with so much happiness? Will he be there at all or will he be away for business? Will he be kept tied up in court?
She'd tried to imagine his face while he carried their son after birth, and her heart bloomed with love for him.
She felt another kick to her belly that soothed and calmed her.
