Chapter Two
Alistair started to stir he had not slept that good in four years since he and Jen sleep together with her in his arms. Then something in the air that made his heart leap it was Jen smell it was lavender, lilac and hint vanilla Alistair prayed it was not fade playing games in his head again, Alistair touched his chest he knew he was naked again he told himself" shit which servant did I fuck last night if this keeps up her bitchiness will lose all of her maids at this rate, and I hope she does." Alistair tried to put his arm over his head he felt cold steel above his head" it wasn't a dream she is here" Alistair sat up and wipe the sleep out his eyes he turned his head to see Jen sleeping against the headboard Alistair went to touch Jen and next thing he knew Jen a hold of a finger and he was face down the mattress and Alistair was looking up at Jen it tore at his heart Jen had cut all of her hair off that when he saw her in Warden Commander Armor he heard her speak" my apologies your highness never wake a warden from sleep," Alistair looked up at her and stutter " you cut all of your hair off," Jen looked down at him he could of swore he saw a hint of a smile" you grew a beard you and beards do not look right," Jen stood up and stressed out her shoulder, and he watched as she twisted her neck until it pop" If you were in the wardens I would make you shave it off the wardens I allow to have beards are dwarfs that are it. Shit, my future husband is more likely having a heart attack right about now." Jen picked her climbing rope went to the window tied one end to a chair before she left looked over at Alistair "If I allow my children come to see you again your pet bitch better be gone or it will be a very long time before I let them come back here."
Jen jumped out the window, and with few minutes her rope was gone too. Alistair lay down on the bed and grab the pillow Jen had used he smelled it, it smelled like her he felt something growing just thinking about her made him horny those long nights with her under him smelling like that even between the blood and leather armor and different types of poisons she soaked her blades in. After they would set up a campsite, she would strip out of her armor and spray herself in that heavenly sent after Alistair had told he loved her she thrown him one of her shirts it soaked in that heavenly smell. Alistair closed his eyes and held that pillow close to his chest and thought back to the day Jen became his wife. Alistair knew she was noble so on their travels they camp out outside run down village but it still had a Chantry that was still used after they left he told Leliana what he wanted to do so since Leliana was sister she insistent she need to be there, so three of them headed off they went back to that run-down village that was the scariest thing he had done to that point in his life. Alistair waited in that Chantry for Jen and Leliana. Alistair heard the great doors open Leliana had covered Jen eyes with a cloth over her eyes, and somehow Leliana found a dress that made Alistair jaw hit the floor it was white it had v line, and it was floor length course it was backless because Jen back tattoo of the twin griffins she got done after her joining. Alistair heard Jen "what in the maker are you taken me, Le? I can't see shit and why am I in a dress?" Alistair heard Leliana giggling" trust me my friend it's worth it" Jen felt a strong hands take her as she felt the cloth leave her eyes she looked there was Alistair looking down at her he smile" I know that is this not appropriate but we can die tomorrow I want to share what time we have together as your husband." and Alistair drop to one knee and looked up at Jen " I know I don't have title lands or the only thing anything like that the only thing I have of worth is this tin suit and a promise I will love you until the day I die or the calling takes me," That's when all three heard a voice in telling them they were not alone " I may be blind but did I just listen to a couple wanting to get married in my Chantry I would be honor to bring you together ." Alistair knew Jen was unarmed so he got in front of her and had his hand on the hilt of his sword they saw the mother she came out and she was a blind Mother of the Chantry. She smiled at the three "now, now a young man I will not hurt any of you "as she was talked to the stone column that was in front of her. Jen started to giggle at the site of the Mother talking to a stone column as Alistair sighed and walk over to the mother and took her hand "we are over here mother." The mother smiled" I knew that your silly boy "she took her place in stage she cleared her throat she paused and turned around and she looked at that figure of Andraste "I knew I forgot something dear never said yes "Jen started to giggle again "I am her mother, and yes I will become his wife until death takes one of both of us." Alistair felt his heart swore higher than any dragon at that moment the mother smile" well that takes the wind out of my sail" she raised her hand by the Maker and his daughter Andraste you are married by the eyes of the Maker" Alistair took Jen hands" I love you" and kissed her.
That night they got a room after the service Leliana had disappeared off somewhere Alistair looked in to fireplace he was scared before, but now he was terrified he was about to do something Alistair never done before he heard Jen voice behind him" Al are you all, right? You look like seen a ghost "Alistair turned around there was Jen she was in something made his pants very tight in the groin it was see throw and she had no smalls under it she turned her head her whole body turned red as she tried to pull the nightie down "I never done anything like this before I am sorry" before Jen knew it Alistair was there he bent down and started to kiss her and rubbed the side of her face and smile " Well that makes me feel better I never done anything like this before either " Jen step back with shock" what you never been with anyone before," Alistair put his hand behind his head " well being raised in a Chantry you don't have much option before he could finish Jen as there looking up at with a warm smile on her face " well I guess this will learning experience for the both of us then Le gave me some pointers on how to make you feel better ." Jen went to her knees and untie his leather pants and took out his manhood her rough callous hands on him Alistair mind went blank then came her month in his manhood he had tight feeling in his chest, and it felt like his nuts were on fire he grabbed a hold her head as she bobbed her head up and down on him the more she did it the fire grew in his nuts. Alistair pulled her away with his voice cracking" love stop I can't take it anymore," Alistair pulled her up from the floor and took Jen hand laid her down on the bed and laid on top her and started to run his fingers up nightie and he wanted to touch every inch of her bare skin Alistair sat her up and pulled off the nightie over her head, Alistair started to kiss her bare skin. Alistair did not want to stop what he was doing, but he still had on his pants he got off the bed and strip out his pants and smalls and his boots he climbed back on the bed with Jen. Jen sat up and brought her knees to her chest and sighed Alistair stopped and looked at her "Love what is wrong?" Jen looked at him" if we keeping going I know how babies are made I would love to have your child honey but we are in middle of civil war and the blight bearing down on us" Jen paused for a second "I would look kind funny being all most to term and round as bronto ass or having baby on my tit I don't think the Loghain or Archdemon would let me have time out to feed our baby or to give birth. Jen heard Alistair snicker, and he sit back he was lost in thought it ran across his mind her being all most to term with his child or the idea her dropping her daggers to feed a baby tell all baddies around them "hang on I need to feed my baby" Alistair loved the idea her being mother his children if he would of meet her year ago it would of happen but now Alistair sighed he went to Jen and touched her face " if this were different time or place I would love to you see you in the last term with our child on or your tit," he paused and keep looking at Jen" since we both are Grey Wardens our ability to have children" Alistair broke again" we can't have kids every warden I knew had children before the joining," Alistair looked way. He felt Jen hand on his face "actually this makes this so much easier, "and she kissed him again he felt warm feeling in his stomach and his nuts were on fire again he pushed her down on the bed and laid on top of her Alistair looked down at her "are you ready for me" Jen just nodded her head and with her help he was guided to her core. Jen grab his arms, and she dug her nails into his arms he went slow inside of her when Jen nodded her head when the pain past then he heard her moaning his name over, over again he felt her climax and Jen screamed his name out that's when the last of his resolved was gone and started move faster, faster he felt like his whole body was a fire he keep going faster, Alistair began to bit into Jen neck the sounds that she made Alistair want her more and when he could not stop or did he want to stay he felt his release coming with other couple hard thrust he spilled inside of her with him moaning her name he lifted himself on his elbows and kissed her told her in her ear" we are now one love nothing will come between us ever, Even the Maker does not have chance I will always be on your side now and forever." After basting in their first time of making love, Jen had fallen asleep for the first time she was not screaming out in her sleep because of what happen to her family or Grey Warden nightmare. Alistair laid there and watched her sleep; it was the first time he wished either were Grey Wardens because he would love to see her pregnant with their child ran his fingers throws her long dark red hair that was draped over her sleeping face. A few days later he had moved into her tent after they got back Alistair was sitting around the campfire that's when Oghren and Zevran sat down with him. Oghren was first to say something "so did she give your sword a good spit shine hehe hehe" Alistair looked over at the dwarf "I am sorry my what?" Oghren looked at confused Templar then puns began "So you and the boss aye" Alistair looked him" what?" Oghren looked at him again and smile "you and her rolling your oats, tapping the midnight still if you will," Alistair looked him he was more confused than before Zevran started his puns "are you feeling alright my friend? so you and her I could give you tidbits on how to make it more enjoyable both of you I have some herbs that could help you last longer." Then it hit Alistair what subject they were talking about he turned three shades of red and stood up and looked down at the elf and dwarf and walked away, with Oghren and Zevran laughing at him as he walked away.
Alistair opened to his eye he was looking up at the ceiling he had that pillow in his arms and had it in death grip Alistair heard someone banging on his bedroom door he heard the doors open with a crash in came the one person in all of Thedas he hated with every fiber of his being his wife Anora she once again mad at him she snarled "where is she at?" as Anora looked around the bed and under the bed, and she pushed the panel to the secret passway Alistair rolled over and looked at her " who are you talking about dear bitchness ?" Alistair never called her by her name ever since that night. Anora looked down at Alistair" this castle has ears and eyes they saw you with a woman and they say is she looked like the Hero of Ferelden, but they could not tell because they keep their cloak over her head and they could not see the armor under it." Alistair sat up on the bed he gave Anora evil smile and made the statement "if she was what in hell are you doing to do? Hmmm, Jen would kick your ass all way to Coastland border and back here." Anora knew how to get under his skin she started off" remember dear husband you told the whole court that your marriage to her was fake you paid blind women to play a mother so you could sleep with her before you died" Anora seen Alistair mad but that statement he was off the bed she could feel the rage coming off him Alistair pushed her into a wall and he snarled at her " because of you I lost her, two of my children are dead because of you, and my sweet Jess is poor health because of you, and one of my sons looks at me like I am monster who did hurt his mother, today was the first day in four years I did not wake up in cold sweats because you and that blood mage made me do to her, I see what I did to her every time I close my eyes." Anora then stated something that took it too far" from what I remember it was your idea to have the very man in camp to have a ride on a warden," Alistair saw red he wanted to wrap his hands around Anora neck strangle the life out of Anora but he stopped and got real close to her ear "ONE DAY BITCH I WILL FIND YOUR PET MAGE AND MAKE HIM PAY FOR WHAT HE DID TO HER AND OUR CHILDREN NOW GET OUT!" Anora knew she took it too far she knew that he was trained to kill and he was excellent at it. Anora picked up her skirt and was out the door. Alistair drops to his knees his heart ached because what Anora just said add other new pieces to the puzzle from that time four years ago, his stomach twisted Alistair want to throw-up he went over to the chamber pot it burned as it came up because of the lyrium wine. After Alistair belly was empty he looked in the mirror it hit him how he hoped it would fix this then he saw in the mirror over at the table, Jen had left her fighting daggers on the table top. Alistair took the silver chain snap the chain he took off the ring that once his older brother Cailan wedding ring since Anora insistent that he wore his brother ring he threw it across the room and put his grey warden wedding band back on and kissed it and said out loud "the only man you are married to Jen is me."
Alistair called Teagan into his office since he was Alistair advisor he looked from his desk" Uncle I want you to fire every woman that I sleep over the last four years," Teagan looked at the king with pure shock Alistair knew it was pretty much every woman on staff he ran his hand throw his long hair Alistair smiled" you are right firing them is too harsh just sell or give their contracts to other nobles in capital, second thing is I want to change my name back to Alistair," Teagan stood there slack jar Alistair looked up at the man " I want you to call a Landsmeeting in few days I have another announcement I need to make in front of the whole court ." Teagan bowed" as you wish King Mar…" Alistair looked up from the desk Teagan smiled "Alistair" Alistair sat down at his desk and wrote a letter to Leliana that she needed to come the capital. He wanted to talk to her, with a few days Leliana was standing in front of Alistair desk Le, had not spoken to Alistair or carried to since that day she held a dead baby in her arms and tried to keep Jen alive after Maric and his bitch did to Jen body that caused her to go into premature labor and the one time she did see him after that night she just snarled at him and asked if he was alone. Alistair looked up from his desk and sighed" I know that you know what Jen name the boys" he stood up and took Leliana hand and took her to building that held his children remains Alistair went over to the crypts and placed a hand on each small crypts he looked down at each "I know you and Jen believe that I was sound mind when this happen as ran his hand across the tombs he looked up at Leliana "Please help me Le I want my sons to have the title they should of have since the day they were born. Leliana walked up to him" King Maric I swore to their mother that you would never know "Alistair corrected her" it's Alistair," Leliana step back "What?" Alistair ran his hand throw his hair and looked at her "I change it back to my give name, please help me, Le, I want to know their names since I am their father," Leliana looked at him "Jen going to kill me but I will tell you" Leliana walked over to the crypts and place a hand on each one. Leliana looked up at Alistair "do you know after they died Sandal in case them each in a crystal I have to open them because one of them have sharp eleven features everyone was in agreement that they would set to the Maker side before they went to Highever, because after what you said to her face during the landsmeet that she was sleeping with Zev," Alistair walked up to the crypts and place a hand on each tombs he looked down at the crypts and sighed " At that time I was the only person who was sleeping with Jen I was under a blood mage spell please Le I want to see them," Leliana sighed" all right, but I must warn you when they were born one was already dead and the other died right after that" she paused " you sure you want to see what the poison did to them" Alistair looked at her " what poison" Leliana looked at him " you may not of remember what happen but your wife does and it not my place to tell you it will be Jen place but since you want to see them I will pop the locks." Leliana went to work she had both locks popped in few minutes she open they first crypt open Le, looked down at the baby that was in Crystal" this is Bryce" Alistair looked over and down there was small child he did look one of both parents had some elf he was in cast in clear crystal Alistair looked down at him, Bryce looked like he would wake up at any moment he had full head of black hair Alistair could see Jen in him he heard Leliana behind him" Jen name him after her father because when his dad was younger he had jet black hair and Jen wanted to give him a strong name." Leliana went over to the other crypt and opened it Alistair heard her say " shit Jen was afraid this would happen" she slammed the lid down Leliana place her hands on the top it and sighed " Jess had two brothers Al was first then Jess she looked down at the cover she heard Alistair coming behind her he heard her talking" When Jen was poisoned Jess got half doses of the poison but this little guy " as Le, ran her hand across the lid of the crypt she turned and looked at Alistair" you would be proud of him because Jen thinks he gave his life to save his sister ," Alistair step up to the crypt and wanted to open the lid Leliana place a hand on his side " it's not pretty Alistair " he just nodded his head opened the vault, and he looked down the minute he saw his son Alistair felt a father rage his son had deep cuts crisscross his whole face and his skin was pale green Alistair had seen that poison before because it was one of Jen favorite deathroot, spider extract and soul rot he slammed the lid down and tried not to break down in front Le but his legs could not hold his weight anymore he crumbled to the floor and he started to cry and sob uncontrollably he held on to the lid with what strength he had left he stutter "…..what.. did…she… name him….?" he heard Leliana behind him "Maric, after your father" Alistair stood up on shaking legs went Leliana and before he could get to her he fell again and he started to sob again he was in Leliana arms crying and sobbing Jen name into the air and to his lost son's he was sorry he could save them. Leliana got him up off the floor and to his room, Alistair fell asleep sobbing.
Alistair woke the morning with new resolved to fix everything he heard Teagan at his bedroom door the "lords are here Alistair" he got up and dressed. Alistair sat down on the throne and waited for everyone to be sited before he began to speak in came Anora she seated on the throne next to him. Alistair stood up "Lords and Ladies of Ferelden I am a fraud because I know this kingdom needs heirs guess what there are heirs, "Anora stood up "Maric my husband I am not with child so can how you have heirs?" Alistair looked at Anora with an evil smile "my name is no longer Maric I change it back to Alistair and sit down and shut up." Alistair turned around and looked at the Lords and Ladies in the throne room" to get back to my point I do have heirs I know you all heard the rumors that I have children with the Hero of Ferelden yes we had six and two are in tomb here in capital" Alistair turned around and looked at Anora "because of what that bitch did they are dead " Alistair head the whole court gasp in horror he turned around and looked at the group" Lord Cousland can you step up here please" everyone parted to let Fergus pass walked up to the throne's and took to a knee Alistair looked down at Fergus " Jen is not here I want to know what kind of justice do you want? Since the boys are your nephews and we both know how Jess health is poor because what Anora did to them?" Fergus looked Alistair could the rage in his eyes "I damned that Queen tells where that blood mage so I get justice for Jess." Alistair scratched his chin" I like that" he turned around and looked at Anora "since they were my son's we will hold a country-wide week of morning for my son's Prince Bryce Cousland Theirin and his twin brother Prince Maric Cousland Theirin, and until you tell us where that blood mage is at you are to stay in your chambers and the longer you take I will start giving Cousland your lands as payment for your crimes." Alistair knew that Anora was pissed off he gave her an evil smile" after the week of the morning I will go to be with the Wardens in Amaranthine for a while. While I am gone Teagan Guerrin, and Lord Fergus Cousland will act as my regents." Alistair looked at crowd" well that's all I have to say," and he walked out of the throne room and he left the palace and into the building that held his son's crypts Alistair was in pray he heard someone behind him it was Anora he could tell she was pissed off "How dare you! Let the whole court know about those brats of yours." Alistair did want to pick a fight in this room he looked up at Maric crypt he snarled "LEAVE NOW" Anora walked over to the crypt a place a hand on the child's fault and started to rub her hand across the top of it Alistair watched as Anora touched one his children he was getting ferrous as that bitch laid a hand on Maric he heard the crypt open he looked up then Alistair heard Anora speak " Wow excellent job with the needles the poison did its job" Alistair started to see red Anora took the child out of the crypt and place the child in front his father on the floor Alistair heard Anora " I had nothing to with this, this is your handed work you wanted them dead as much as I did" Alistair looked down at his son encased in a clear crystal the sun hit the room just right Alistair saw throw the crystal Maric had over thousand cuts all over his small body Alistair turned his head he want to mourn in peace but he was not going give Anora the pleaser to see him break down then he heard Bryce crypt being opened Anora looked down at the baby in the crystal and picked up the child " Are you even sure this little half breed is even yours?" Alistair had enough of her shit he was up off the floor Alistair took Bryce away from Anora and looked down at the baby it was the first time he got to hold his son in his arms. Alistair felt the tears coming but he was mad because bitchness laid a hand on his children and it was her fault they were dead, and it took almost four years for him to hold them he had flashback when Morrigan was holding his dead baby in her arms the baby had black hair and she was shielded the dead child with her own body from his own father. Alistair place child loving in the crypt and he grab a hold Anora wrists pushed her into the wall and made sure she could see how he pissed off he was Alistair sneered at her "I will find your fuckin mage dear wife my spies have told me you know where he is at, and you are still sleeping with him. I will be ten worst when comes your and his child and now get out before I show you how pissed off I am for you laying a hand on my sons." Anora snarled at Alistair" I dare youthey will be heir to the Ferelden throne," Alistair shot her evil smile "they would not be mine because I have not slept with you in over four years, I would rather fuck a dark spawn broodmother before I ever sleep with you again." Anora got mad "I heard your sweet Jessica health is poor and I cannot wait for her die maybe if I catch her at the right time I…." Next thing Anora knew Alistair had punched the wall close to her head she looked his eyes they were not longer hazel they were dark blue she had heard of a warrior's rage before to see it firsthand she heard Alistair speak "GET THE FUCK OUT NOW! Next time I won't miss." As Anora looked over at the hole he just made in the wall, she pushed Alistair away and ran out of the room. Alistair heard the door closed he walked over to Maric who still on the floor he pick up the baby and sat down on the floor with infant in his lap and closed his eyes and tried to picture him his arms put instead soft infant skin he felt smooth and cold crystal that his son was encased Alistair opened his eyes and looked down at his child" he brought the child close to his chest and let the tears come and spoke loving to the child" Daddy so sorry you had to die because I was not strong enough to keep you safe," and held the child in his arms he got up and place the child back in its crypt and went over and picked up Bryce out his crypt and just held the child close to his chest. Alistair spent the rest of the day in that building he stayed with his son's. True to his word the whole country mourned for his and Jen sons after the week was over he rode off to Amaranthine.
