When it came to waking early, Wyatt Cain could comply. However, it pained him to leave his wife alone. Especially after the past few months. But it was his job, and he had to keep everyone safe that lived in the palace. Just because they were in Finaqua, doesn't mean they weren't being watched.
This morning, before either suns had risen, Cain woke as usual. Though, DG was fast asleep next to him, usually. This time, she wasn't. Getting up in the early mornings had given Cain an advantage in the dark. His eye quickly adjusted and he looked around the room.
Standing next to the large window was DG. She stared out the window, looking as though she was thinking. Cain stared at her with passion. DG wore a short nightgown. The material was a gentle silk, a light blue color. Her long brown hair was pulled back
"Do you purposely disregard medical orders?" Cain asked. He sat up.
DG turned in surprise, "How long have you been awake?"
"I have a better question, how long have you been standing by the window?" Cain stepped onto the floor. His feet quickly cooled from the marble floor. He walked from the bed to the window and stood behind DG.
"Not that long. I only woke up a few minutes ago." DG answered. She looked back out at the scenery.
Cain placed his hand on DG's back. He felt her lean against his hand and he smiled. "You should get back to bed."
"Doesn't mean I'll be sleeping."
"Which you should be in your condition." Cain's arms wrapped around DG's silk covered stomach.
DG smirked, "I know, but I…I just-"
"What?"
"There's just, something that doesn't make sense." DG answered. She grabbed Cain's hands around her stomach.
"You're lying." Cain replied smiling.
"Alright, I couldn't sleep because I'm nervous." DG said.
Cain took one of his hands from DG's stomach and wrapped it around her shoulders. "You don't have to anymore. The healers said the first few months would tell. You only have two more months DG, there's nothing to be nervous about."
"Then why has everyone told me to stay in bed?" DG asked. She turned from the window. Her bright blue eyes looked up at him.
"They're dong it for your protection. After what happened last time, they don't want to take any chances." Cain explained.
"I can respect their reasons, but their actions are suffocating me. I can't stay in this room forever Cain. I swear I've read every book in the library in here." DG said.
Cain tried not to smile or smirk at the last comment, knowing very well it could be true. "I'll make you a deal."
"What?"
"If you keep someone with you at all times, I'll make sure the guards know you have my permission to be out of your room. Deal?" Cain explained.
DG pondered the proposal. I supposes Azkadellia wouldn't mind. But what about the council? "And what happens when the council doesn't approve?"
"Than I'll send a few guards to escort you. Just to humor them." Cain answered. "And if they have any other objections, then they can discuss them with me."
"Wyatt Cain, you are going to get yourself in a lot of trouble." DG stated.
"That's what happens when you marry someone who seems to be a trouble magnet." Cain replied.
DG playfully hit Cain's bare chest. "Watch it Tin Man."
"That's part of my job Princess." Cain replied. "Do we have a deal?"
"Deal." DG answered. She leaned up to Cain and kissed him.
Cain returned to kiss. His hands wrapped around DG's back and pulled her closer. DG's arms wrapped around the back of Cain's neck. Cain's hands pulled DG as close as she could come. His hands slide down her back.
DG gasped and recoiled back. Cain brought his hands up quickly. He grimaced at his stupidity. Watch her back. Zero's bullet hasn't been removed yet.
DG's hand grasped Cain's shoulders. He looked at her, worried. DG looked up at Cain. Her eyes clearly said she was in pain. Her right hand touched his cheek.
"I'm alright." She said.
Cain lightly touched DG's left cheek. His finger ran over the scar, caused by Zero months ago. He shook his head, "No DG, you're not. You're two months from having the baby and you still have the bullet in your back."
DG sighed, "And I'm still here. Both of us are still here. It doesn't matter if I have a bullet in by back or not, I'm not leaving. Nothing is going to happen."
"Well, there's one thing that's going to happen." Cain said.
"What's that?" DG asked.
"You're going back to bed." Cain answered.
DG smiled, "And what about you?"
"I have my own job to do this morning. Now back to bed." Cain explained.
DG turned and slowly made her way to the bed. Cain walked right behind her. His hand her shoulders, keeping her steady. DG sat back on the bed and brought her feet up. Cain knelt next to her for a moment. He rose to leave. DG caught his hand and gasped.
"What is it DG?" Cain asked.
DG placed his hand on her stomach. Cain smiled. He could feel the small child moving. Cain met DG's gaze. He bent down and kissed DG again. Her hand touched his cheek and kissed him back.
Cain walked from his wife. He watched her as she closed her eyes.
