All The King's Men: The Beginning - Plot & Excerpts
She had been fine at the king's holiday party on Christmas Eve, but yesterday, she'd gotten sick twice, and this evening she didn't look any better."Baby? You okay?"She stirred from sleep and reached for the box of cookies beside the bed with a moan. Poor thing had lived off Nabisco Ginger Snaps and ginger tea for the last twenty-four hours in an effort to quell her nausea."I'm going to stay home with you today," he said, brushing her hair off her face."No," she said quietly. "You don't need to do that. I can—"He shushed her, placing his fingers against her lips. "Yes, I do need to do that. Remember what I said last week? Besides, you need to rest."She rolled her eyes and nibbled on the edge of a cookie. "I hate that you're seeing me like this.""Baby, all I see is the most beautiful female in the world, and she's carrying my child. I think she's ravishing." He caressed her cheek.She began to laugh, and then her eyes opened wide as she slapped her hand over her mouth, scuttled out of bed, and darted to the bathroom.
