Here Comes the Son
The winter had been long and harsh the first year of their marriage. Those long nights with Arthur were filled with love and passion.
Gwen was sure that is why when spring came everyone had hopes of an heir to the throne. She had hoped that there would already be news but there wasn't. She knew there was no need to dwell on the lack of an heir but Gwen had to admit she was getting a bit anxious.
Spring came finally. The days became longer and warmer and Gwen's thoughts turned to gardens and her queenly duties. That was why she was so suppressed when she heard Gaius say what he did.
"My Lady, you are with child." The old physician told her with a big smile.
"Are you positive? Because it could just be an upset stomach or something I ate." Gwen was shocked she thought they hadn't conceived.
"I am sure. The child will be here by Yule." He said as he patted her hand. "It will be a perfect gift for the King."
"I can't wait to tell him his son is coming." Gwen smiled
"Or daughter, My Lady." Gaius reminded her.
"Oh wouldn't that be a surprise." Gwen said.
