Chapter 3 - BALMUDIA
It was a brisk, autumnal evening in the coastal capital city, where red and yellow leaves littered the cobbled streets and a low wind blew cold in from the sea. Only a few citizens braved the elements to pay their respects to one of the kingdom's oldest public servants at the huge cathedral just south of the market district. From the cracked tiles of that ancient holy structure, plumes of incense wafted up to the ceiling, like souls rising to the heavens.
There, seated alone at the rear, and in disguise, eighteen year old Princess Quizia Remo prayed for her family's most trusted advisor. Despite her sorrow this night, something else nagged at Quizia. She couldn't help but think there was something odd about her husband's behaviour lately. She bowed her head and resumed her prayer.
Quizia was the last surviving member of the Balmudian royal family.
She had a bright, youthful appearance, with long brown hair and pretty blue eyes set against suntanned skin. She was short, barely more than five feet tall, and lusciously full-figured. Wide supple hips and a full bosom on her compact frame were defining features though Quizia also had a fiery personality, an unapologetic knack for being overly nosey, and was, at present, great with child.
She knelt in one of the back pews of
The Temple of the Holy Sanctifier
, one of the ancient religious sects in the kingdom of Balmudia. Hooded and cloaked in navy blue, to hide her identity while out in public after dark, the little princess silently took part in the prayer being offered to memory of her old family friend.
It was an old order, they of the Sanctifier, which had lost many of its more devout members during the plague years, and even more when Trevilan had first arrived almost twenty years ago. Most citizens of Balmudia, the survivors, had converted to the more dominant religion, the church of the Redeemer, which of course was the also faith of her husband, Prince Marcus Velcin.
Quizia had chosen to uphold the faith of her parents, whose teachings and lessons were often hidden within parables, religious allegory, and, more often, stories within stories, that usually went over her head. But they always seemed to remind or reinforce the idea that familial love was paramount, and compassion a virtue.
Quizia smiled, and thought of Marcus.
She adored everything about her dashing young husband. He was so kind, had a friendly personality, stunning good looks, and was great in bed... she blushed. Yes, she thought the world of him. How could a loving wife do otherwise? She doted on him constantly. Marcus was tall, dark, and handsome, and she knew he loved her just as deeply.
Her mind went over his distinctly Velcin face, pale skin and deep green eyes. She had known him for years, ever since the Velcins had arrived to offer aid to Balmudia following the worst years of the plague. First as the eager young pupil of the noble lords and ladies who had initially arrived to oversee the relief effort. Years later, as a young man who became the official regent in Balmudia, where he was in charge of the restoration of the capital, public works efforts, and the humanitarian aid programs.
Their romance had started slowly, through chaperoned courting and the exchanging of letters. They went on long walks through the gardens and the woodlands north of the capital. She had been so sad, so lonely in her grief, during those difficult years without her family.
He helped her move on. He was fun and playful with her, but also quite gentle. He taught her how to ride horses and play games. They went swimming together in the summer months and sailed around the bay as often as they could. He helped her come to terms with her grief and move on with life. She could never have dreamed of a more caring partner.
The Sanctifier had strict rules about sex, of course... mostly, as she understood, it was meant for the purpose of procreation, and only after marriage. But Quizia and Marcus had had an awful lot of fun trying to get pregnant once they were married when two years after meeting Marcus, they were betrothed.
On the day of their wedding, Marcus' beautiful mother, the aged queen Marzanna Velcin, had whispered to the blushing bride to always make herself
available
to the prince, that he would surely bless her with many children, and happiness... and Quizia took that to heart keeping that promise... to the letter.
Quizia blushed thinking of that first night. And the many others that followed. The Sanctifier didn't seem to care about sex during pregnancy, a loophole the two young lovers were quick to take advantage of. Even during this late in her pregnancy, they enjoyed a very healthy sex life.
She was still sore from last night.
He had taken her twice, pumping her welcoming young pussy full of his seed once and then finishing all over her big bubbly butt the second time. Quizia was amazed at how much she loved being bent over and taken from behind... and subsequently dominated by his big thing.
Yes, Marcus was a dotting husband, and always made sure she came as much, if not more, than him. She recalled being so surprised to learn from her handmaidens that few men were as endowed, or vigorous, as Marcus. Though he often worked her quite hard in the bed chamber, she knew this was simply how he expressed his love for her and her youthfully curvy body.
She held her rounded stomach lovingly; she could barely see it below her painfully swollen breasts, which had more than doubled in size over the course of her pregnancy. Marcus could hardly keep his hands, or his mouth, off them.
She smiled to herself and tried not to think too much on their nights of passion while here in the temple. She felt the baby move. No, the days would not be long now. Marcus was an exceptional lover and she did her best to keep up with his needs. But he was also quite intuitive; he knew how to give her such pleasure as well.
Over and over again.
Quizia felt her cheeks grow hot. Lots of changes were on the way. This past year had flown by and she was over encumbered, literally, with the prospect of impending motherhood. Even still, she kept to her oath and always made sure to be... available to her loving husband.
