Palace Gardens
Alanna returns from seeing duke Baird but has a shell - shocked expression on her face. Thayet has an inkling on what Alanna is about to say.
"So what happened?" – Thayet
"Not much," – Alanna
"Did he say what the cause of your sickness was?"
"Yeah."
"Well…"
"Hh Mmm mmm"
"Speak up Alanna I can't hear what your saying."
"He said that I'm pregnant!"- Alanna yells
"WHOOOO!" Jon, Gary and Raoul come out of hiding from behind the walls.
"SHIT," Alanna mutters smacking herself on the forehead.
Jon, Gary and Raoul all take turns in hugging and congratulating her. In spite of herself she can't stop herself from smiling.
"Now Alanna," Jon says, suddenly serious. "I can't let you go on this mission pregnant.
"But" Alanna says trying to interrupt.
"No," Jon says. "George would kill me, if anything happened to you or the baby while you were on a mission I sent you on. So I'm sorry Alanna but I'm going to have to send you home."
"WHAT!" Alanna yells, shocked by Jon's sudden decision. Thayet, Gary and Raoul quickly and quietly exit the scene. This is not something that they'd like to argue about with either of the two.
But Jon left Alanna with no choice but to return home, so she did.
The Swoop
Alanna walks in and finds it the same peaceful quiet that it always is when George is working. She walks silently into the study expecting to find George but is surprised with an empty room, so she goes up to their bedroom but the door is closed. She turns the handle silently, opening the door when she is hit with the harsh reality. There on the bed lay a sleeping George and mysterious woman in a tangle of limbs nude. George sensing someone watching him opened his eyes only to find Alanna staring straight back at him with a look of hurt and horror in her eyes. What had he done.
"You son of a bitch," she said, voice devoid of emotion. Then she walked out.
