Chapter 254 - A Shameless Husband

Alexa just didn't let the carrots and their jewelry fall exactly because the jewelry was so valuable. But she wanted to cover her mouth to avoid the mix of sensations that seemed to want to come out of it audibly.

"MAGNUS!"

Magnus really was so ridiculous that he was cute! She wanted to slap him and laugh, and at the same time, her heart warmed because he was able to be so pathetic to make her forgive him.

"Don't you have any shame?!"

"No. You don't have to go to the garden to find a fifth or sixth husband. If you look carefully, you can find something here that satisfies you!" he blinked and Alexa could no longer contain the sound of her laughter, even if she pursed her lips,

"PFFHFHFHF!!! Hahaha!!!"

"It's advisable not to pull the thread too hard ... These jewels are an inestimable heirloom!"

She placed the carrots and their jewelry on the table, and approached the bathtub, wiping the tears of laughter from her eyes. At least she found that carrots floated around Magnus.

"Shall I light a fire under it and cook you like soup?"

"As long as you constantly try me to know my taste, I wholeheartedly agree ..." he grinned brightly.

"That was the strangest thing you've ever done ..." 

"You saved me with loaf against a dagger, once. Don't you think we are made for each other?" the Prince gave the string a slight tug, moving Alexa's wrist. "Why don't you go into this refreshing water with me?"

"Aren't you reading a letter?"

"I paid a poet to write a poem for you, in fact."

Alexa held her breath, surprised, and got pink cheeks. "You did it? Did a poet write poetry for me overnight?"

"Yes. He's very good. So good that I realized if I try to say these things to you ... the beauty of his words, destroyed by my inept tongue, would diminish me," he crumpled the paper into a ball and tossed it aside. "I must be happy for at least have a good face and noble blood. Because my courtesy skills are nil, Alexa. In that regard, maybe even a carrot is more charismatic than me."

"You made yourself unforgettable, at least," Alexa put her hands on her waist, evaluatively. He was working hard! 

"Let's talk about the baby..." Magnus kept his face impassive.

"The baby? What about the baby?"

"I have some questions about the baby."

"Did you change in one night? What happened?"

Alexa undid the bandages, checking how her hands were. Realizing that they were almost healed. She went to his back, taking the wet cloth and rubbing his neck and shoulders. It was so good to look at his back that carried her so many times while she was asleep!

"Me? Did I change? I don't know. Recently I feel like I'm someone else, but I can't make any promises," Magnus seemed to enjoy her massage on his neck, shoulders, and back, stretching lazily.

"Then ask your questions. I don't know if I'll be able to answer it though ..."

"How can you know it's a He?" Of course, Alexa knew that every nobleman wanted to have male heirs, and preferably, as soon as possible. But she didn't know what was in her w.o.m.b.

Magnus showed a little confusion, and corrected himself, while Alexa condescendingly gave him another chance. Could it be that the men were all the same? 

"It was just a way of speaking. But do you talk to Her?"

"No. And I don't know if it's him or her. There is no spirit on my side. Or you would see it too, wouldn't you?" that was a question she always had _ whether Magnus also saw spirits.

"I don't see them all the time, just when they want to, I think. And it's good like that. And… will our baby be a Light Bearer?"

Alexa sighed. She once considered it a gift from the gods and something that set her apart from ordinary people. Even though it was a heavy burden, now seemed too heavy to pass on to a child. She has been there before knowing how heavy this gift was.

"The Dallassenos were hardly born without the gift. Especially men."

Magnus touched her hand over his shoulder, squeezing it to comfort her.

"I hope God has mercy on our child," Magnus turned over his shoulder to face Alexa as he said this and raised her hand to his lips after that.

Alexa felt a mixture of sadness for not knowing the future, and comfort for knowing that Magnus thought so.

TCHBOOM! He grabbed her and in a flash, pulled her into the tub.

Alexa gave a cry, first because of the scare and then because of the cold water. He protected her from drowning, but Alexa was furious!

"Arghhh!!!"

Bringing her to his lap and against her chest, Magnus pretended to console her, "OhOh, poor thing, she fell into the water! So wet! Let me help you get those wet clothes off, oww poor thing!" covering her with kisses and with her hands lasciviously pacing the princess's body.

"Are you finally going to fulfill your wish the other time I was here?"

"Ah, you don't tell me!" Magnus threw the carrots out of the tub. "After all that, hearing that false intel you were actually a man… It broke my heart! I've been so hard for you!"

Alexa laughed and groped his body until she found what she wanted, grabbing it willingly.

"Wow!" Magnus was taken by surprise but laughed delightedly. "Did you find what you were looking for in the garden?"

"Magnus ... Why don't you just shut up?"

"Give me your mouth again and the only thing I will do besides devour you, will be to breathe," his hand also moved quickly towards the delta of Alexa's legs, and she sighed in delight when he touched her core. She offered her mouth for him to kiss her as he asked.

In moments, they were sailing through the shallow waters when they heard heavy footsteps approached the door. Magnus held her close to him, not really leaving her body when the man outside announced,

"Your Highness, news from our eastern border. We lost the village of Harzdorff and the Ludoraz Bridge!"
