Chapter 86

"Why didn't you tell me this?" Jon demanded. "I thought it was nothing..." "Well apparently it isn't..."

"Jon can we not do this now!" I demanded. I looked at the doctor, silently telling her to continue. "Medication?" She asked. "Painkillers. For the past few days." I said. The doctor nodded and took down more notes. Finally, I couldn't take it anymore. I cleared my throat and looked at the doctor. "What...what...what happened to me?" I stammered. I was afraid of the answer. She looked at me, and then Jon. Her eyes flitted and she looked down, her face contorted in anguish. She gulped and took a deep breath. "Tell us." Jon ordered. "The princess..." She began. "The princess had a miscarriage." Don't break.

At that moment, my world stood still. It felt like a freeze was taking over my heart. Blood slowly left my face as I paled. My hand fell from Jon's and my mouth hung open.
