At Easter Cordon Borders
"Please refrain from putting yourself in danger. Our King won't like you participating in such huge tasks that might have you overusing your energy," Taro, one of the King's shadow knights, reminded.
Despite the warning, Jayra rolled her eyes at the vampire who was blocking her way. "Tell your king that I'm almost at my full power by now and that I can literally pull out the divine bloodthread of his wife into of ," she grumbled. "Also, I won't overuse my energy by rely strengthening our borders!"
This was ridiculous. She was already fed up with seeing Taro's pale face for more than a year now!
[You brute!!!] she growled through their Bond as she turned to her husband with a frown.
To her dismay, Bartos simply shrugged at her like usual. Unfortunately for her, her husband always agreed with this Taro whenever it ca to her safety. She couldn't believe she lasted over a year while being restrained from using her full power!
It was only a matter of ti until she cracked from it all. She could feel it. Soon, she'd be free to do whatever she wanted without prying eyes watching her every move.
"Mineah's husband is too overprotective. I an, hadn't he realized yet that this is my life too? I don't have any intention of dying so early without even experiencing having a child," Jayra snorted as she turned around and left. "Of course, I know my boundaries. I won't put myself in danger unless I knew what I was doing! Plus, I'm not that irresponsible to put Mineah in danger. Not only is she my dear friend, but she's also the one who gave my second life. And on top of that, our lives are still bound to one another. One of us dying ans we both do."
Grumbling to herself, Jayra rolled her eyes as she went inside the room she and Bartos were currently sharing in the inn. Once inside, she then went straight to her table where she had her personal journal. She pried it open, reading the latest entry she had just written.
"I can't wait to remove Mineah's bloodthread in my blood," she murmured with a heavy sigh.
Based on her findings, it was the foreign bloodthread inside her body that was preventing her from conceiving a child. It had been more than a year already since she and Bartos began honestly trying hard to have a baby, but even after all this ti, nothing was happening. It was only through her research and Aurelia's help that she was able to point out where everything had gone wrong.
Moving, she then sat on their bed, positioning herself in a more comfortable position before going into a ditative state. ntally, she assessed her condition once more. And after a few monts, her lips curled up as she whispered, "A few more days…"
She stayed like that for a few monts, and it wasn't until she felt her husband's presence enter the room that she opened her eyes once more.
"A few more days for?" Bartos asked with a frown.
Eyes now open, Jayra lifted a brow at her husband and asked, "Why are you here? Are you done with work?"
Bartos gave her a cheeky smile as he shalessly said, "I'm here to make you feel good since you suddenly left with a frown back there…"
"And whose fault is it that I had to walk out like that?"
Instead of answering, Bartos approached her on the bed before then lovingly holding her hands. "Can you bla if I just simply care about you too much? I an, I see nothing wrong with Taro's reminders," he explained. "It's his duty to keep you safe since that was what King Nikolai instructed him to do, and I couldn't bla him because as your husband, I want to always keep you safe, wife."
Jayra simply shrugged in defeat. She was honestly just being stubborn, but she understood both King Nikolai's and her husband's sentints.
"I have good news, by the way," Bartos humd.
She blinked at him and excitedly asked, "What?"
"Apparently Bella started a business while we were gone," he eagerly stated. "It's the one idea she's been telling us about selling Osman's products and so of his inventions. And apparently, her business is doing well."
"Well, that's what I predicted," Jayra humd in satisfaction. "I'm sure Bella will do great. But what's more important is that she's being more proactive now. Although, I can still see how her eyes are still not as lively as before."
"She needs more ti. Osman had a big impact in her life in such a short ti, and it'll take a while for the pain to fade away…" Bartos comnted. "By the way, what is it that you're whispering about a while ago? A few more days with what?"
"Mineah's bloodthread. I'll be able to expel it soon," Jayra smirked. "My estimate is that it'll be gone in around five days. From there, that Taro will finally leave my sight and we can try having a baby!"
"I'm not in a hurry, wife…" he chuckled.
"But, Clara's already pregnant, and I wouldn't be surprised if Aurelia will follow soon even if she says otherwise," Jayra sighed with a pout. "I an, I was the first one who got married out of all of us."
In truth, she was just getting jealous of her friends. She just wanted to have kids of her own, especially whenever she would see Xenia's adorable twins. And just recently, the news about Clara getting pregnant was starting to spread as well. And although Bartos wasn't pressuring her, she knew that her husband couldn't wait to have their own pups as well. Besides, he had ntioned it before, but he stopped as soon as he found out that she wouldn't be able to conceive until the foreign bloodthread was removed from her body.
"Co here," Bartos humd as he pulled her into his arms for a warm embrace. Jayra felt his lips on her head as he whispered, "We still have a lot of ti in the world, wife, so don't pressure yourself too much. I'm sure the Almighty will grant us our own baby soon… once the right ti cos for sure."
Jayra hugged her husband back. She loved his warmth so much, and she liked how understanding he was to her. Truly, she was grateful to the Heavens for having Bartos in her life. She was so blessed.
"Maybe we can try now. I can feel that my blood is almost cleansed from any dark energy," Jayra naughtily humd as she started roaming her hands to her husband's side. "Mineah's blood is so powerful that it manages to clear all the dark energy that awakened inside my.."
Bartos chuckled. "Alright, my wife… Your wish is always my command…"
