A Son For A King
A Mother's Heart Part Two
James was roller skating down the hall in full speed. The wind blowing on his face and through his hair was enough to make him feel as he was literally flying. He knew these halls by heart so whenever he turned the corners his anticipation grew higher. It was the best gift his grandfather has ever given him…second to his new puppy, which wasn't here just yet.
"Achidonza!" He laughed blasting down the second level through a special ramp built for the cars that were in the stored in one of the rooms on the floor. He made another turn in the corner, but this time Nagina was in the middle of the hall talking to a helper. "Ah! Watch out!" He tried to stop, but unfortunately it wasn't on time because he went smack face first onto his royal grandmother.
He opened his eyes and saw her on the floor. Fear ran through him, hoping she wouldn't tell his father.
But to his fortune, she only laughed.
"I am sorry Nagina." James apologized.
"Do not call me by my name James." Nagaina said.
James frowned. "What should I call you then?"
"Call me grandmother." She smiled. "Or azugana, which is how you say it in Maldonian."
James remained quiet.
"You know…" She stood up. "I was a lot like you growing up."
James was surprised to hear her honesty. "You were like a boy?"
"I was a tomboy." She said, helping him up. "My papa and mama hated it so much that they sent me away to an all-girl etiquette school. Where I learned to act like a lady."
"What sort of things did you do before turning into a regular girl?"
Nagina took her grandson's hand, walking them in the den. "I played a lot of rugby with my cousins. I was the only girl in the family so it was a bit hard to be pretty."
James raised an eyebrow. "I find it very hard to believe you were playing a sport like rugby."
"Your grandfather felt the same way when we were courting. Boy did I show him." She laughed.
"Could you teach me how to play rugby?"
"Oh, well, yes…I suppose. I am a little rusty, but I can show you my favorite moves. Your father was very good at the game. In fact, he is very good at all the sports he participated in. Perhaps you could ask him as well."
"But he's always so busy now." James said in a disappointed voice.
"Well he is king of Maldonia, but I'm sure he make up all the lost time, yes?"
James nodded his head.
Nagina smiled. "Come, let us get your grandpapa and enjoy the rest of this rainy day."
"How can we enjoy a rainy day?"
"It's very easy. We have a lot of games, stories, whatever you want to do."
"We can play some games!" James was now excited.

Tiana was discussing her restaurant plans to the head chef of the kitchen. They were both in the boardroom where meetings are usually held in. Tiana had to cancel her meeting due to the weather so she decided to spend her day working on the menu.
"I think you should also add in Moussaka. It's the official dish of Maldonia!"
Tiana smiled and nodded her head. "I would love to add in more Maldonian food! And I tried that…delicious."
"Thank you." Bella, the chef smiled. The women discussed more on Maldonian dishes when Jasper walked in, happy to see Tiana in the room. "Good afternoon ladies."
"Hey Jasper!" Tiana said, while writing down another Maldonian dish.
"Abinaza Tiana." Bella, the chef said quickly leaving the room. She didn't want to be anywhere near Jasper.
"Bye?" Tiana said and sighed. "I thought she would at least give me some more dishes to add on this menu I'm writing down."
Jasper stood beside the woman and looked down at the paper. "I see you have some traditional Maldonian dishes. But where are the desserts?"
Tiana rolled her eyes, "Right. I know of the nutrolls, the Maldonian cheesecake of course and-
"The chocolate raspberry truffles are a hit…or at least for me." He smiled.
"Mmm. That sounds so delicious." Tiana began writing down the name of the desserts as Jasper took a whiff of her perfume. His body grew warm as he took in the vanilla/cherry scent she carried. He then took a look at her full lips and was instantly tempted to kiss them. His eyes then traveled down to her left hand and frowned when he realized she was writing all the words in English.
"Why don't you write everything in Maldonian?" He asked.
Tiana stopped writing and looked up at the young man. "Oh, well my Maldonian isn't quite there yet. My writing would offend you." She laughed.
He smiled and took her hand. "We are both left-handed, I see." And helped her write down the Maldonian words next to the English words. His pants grew tighter as felt a small brush from the back of Tiana as she moved back to his side.
"Thank you Japser." She said, folding the paper in half. "I'm gonna ask Naveen for his favorites."
Jasper's state of mind quickly cleared when he heard his cousin's name. "I thought you would already know what he likes."
"I know what he likes in the American/French food. Not so much in Maldonian. He said that he loves everything here."
Jasper looked down at Tiana's stomach. "It doesn't even look like you're expecting at all."
Tiana snorted. "Thank you for being polite but I know I'm getting bigger."
"No, I am being very honest…" He put his hand on her stomach, rubbing it a little. "You look beautiful for being pregnant." He then took her hand and kissed it.
Tiana laughed a little. She always thought Jasper was charming, in a baby brother kind of way.
"Would you like for me to tell you your Maldonian name?"
"Naveen told me…it's Tiana." She said, unfolding the paper, realizing she did remember one dish Naveen talked about.
He smiled and stepped up behind her again. "My cousin always beats me at everything."
"Mmm hmm." She said, not really paying much attention to him.
Jasper took a step back to get a better look at Tiana's behind. He shook his head, getting more and more turned on. He took a step forward and watched her write down the dish and smiled. "Ah. The Maldonian Roasted Chicken. That is one of his favorites."
"I know! I just remembered him talking about this on our second honeymoon. He want me to cook it for him someday." Tiana smiled, thinking abut her man.
Jasper wrinkled his nose. "Would you like for me to help you write this in-
"Yes, please.." She said.
Jasper brushed his front on her behind. Tiana noticed.
"Um, Jasper, you are a little too close back there." She said, feeling a little suffocating.
"Oh…" He stepped back a little. "My apologies." He then helped Tiana write the name down and this time he didn't want to let her hand go. "Your hands…are so soft." Looking down at her. "What kind of mousterizer do you use?"
Naveen walked in the boardroom and saw Jasper standing behind his wife, rubbing her hand. Anger cast over him.
"What the hell is this?" He asked, walking over to the two.
Tiana and Jasper looked Naveen's way. She pulled her hand away, going over to her husband. "Jasper was just helping me with-
"With what?" Naveen asked, more angry with his cousin than his wife. "Massaging your hand?"
Tiana frowned. "What is up with you?"
Naveen walked over to Jasper, who had a smirk on his face, and without hesitation punched him so hard that the young man slid across the room. Tiana gasped as he took her arm, trying to pulling her out of the room.
She yanked it back, now angry herself. "What the hell was that all about?"
Naveen looked down at his wife. "I don't know? I walked in on my cousin trying to seduce my wife-
"He wasn't trying to seduce me! He was helping me write these dishes in Maldonian." She handed him the draft menu.
"Tiana, I am a man and I know how we think. He wasn't just trying to help you write in Maldonian, he was trying to get some kind of sexual thrill from you. He's obsessed with you!"
Tiana's eyes widen. "Are you hearing yourself?"
"Ugh." Jasper groaned, waking up from his knockout.
"I want you out of this palace and country now!" Naveen ordered his cousin.
Jasper slowly got up, holding the right side of his face.
"If you don't leave I'll give that right jaw a matching bruise." He threatened.
Tiana watched the young man and shook her head. "He didn't do anything wrong, Naveen."
"Only you would side with anyone but your husband."
"I am not siding with anyone." Tiana said, as her hormonal emotions started to kick in.
"It seems like it to me." He started walking out of the room.
"Naveen…" She tried taking his arm, but he pulled it away.
"I need some time to think." He left the room and started walking down the halls.
Tiana ran behind Naveen, confused by what just happened.
"Naveen!" She called out to him.
He quickened his pace as he walked outside in the pouring rain, she followed him all the way through the garden. "Naveen, what is this really about?" She asked, as the rain hit her.
He stopped, without turning, and realized she was actually following him. "Tiana, you shouldn't have left the palace in this rain." He didn't want to look at her because he knew that if he did, all the anger he felt would wash away, just as the rain was against him. He was stubborn, and didn't want it to leave so soon.
"Jasper was only helping me. He's like a younger brother to me Naveen." She explained, with tears running down her face, the rain still pouring on the two of them.
Naveen remained quiet. He was starting to feel like an idiot for his jealousy.
Tiana frowned, taking a step his way. "Naveen, is there something you're not telling me?"
He sighed, and turned to see Tiana, who was just as wet as he was. She looked absolutely beautiful standing there, waiting for him to answer her questions. He cracked a small smile from his lips, as so many thoughts of her ran through his head. His eyes went to her soaked hair. Where he noticed some of it on the sides of her face and his favorite on lying perfectly on her forehead. His eyes traveled to her eyes. He always got lost in those dark orbs as he knew she would never hurt him, so why did he react the way he did? He couldn't answer that question right now because his eyes then traveled down to her lips, the only ones he ever loved kissing. He wanted to kiss them right now. But would she let him is the question. His eyes then skimmed down her breasts, where he could clearly see her erect nipples shown through her olive-colored dress. His eyes traveled down at her round hips. The wet dress she was wearing didn't help control his sudden temptation for her. But would she let him touch her is another question. Standing in front of him was perfection, the one person who he could always depend on, the woman of his dreams, the mother of his children. He wanted to be stubborn and hold back, but he knew he couldn't. So, he walked over to his wife, cupping her face with his hand.
Tiana's eyes watered up in tears, "Is there something you're not telling me?"
He pulled her closer to him and shook his head. "No. Everything is fine…I just lost myself for a moment." He pressed his lips onto hers as hard as he could. He wanted every inch of her mouth on his.
Tiana couldn't hardly breathe. The kiss that her husband was giving her was a kiss he gave her the night they made love in New Orleans. It was passionate, exciting, deep, loving…like his other kisses, but there was something different about it, as good as it felt. Tiana didn't know what was going on in his mind, but at this moment, she knew not to ask anymore questions.
He scooped her into his arms, with his lips still connected to hers, and walked the two into the gazebo, where he brought them into another room, closing the door behind. Naveen put her back down and both began undressing, while still kissing. Once they got on the bed they continued their kissing fest and with one hard thrust Naveen was inside Tiana. His hips moved in repeatedly as both shared moans of pleasure. Their tongues danced as they switched positions, with Tiana now on top, both moving in perfect rhythm off each other. They were gazing at one another and all Naveen saw in his wife's eyes were lust and confusion. Instead of trying to find a way to answer her he was once again between her inner thighs, thrusting in and out of her. Tiana's nails deepened in Naveen's back as she felt every last inch of him inside of her. Her first wave of orgasm was a big one and knew the second one was going to be an even bigger rush. Naveen felt his wife's muscles tightened around him, giving him even more pleasure. He moaned outloud as a sudden chill rushed in both of them.
They were out of breath from their intense love making, and all Naveen kept thinking about were Tiana's eyes. And how much emotion they gave out at him. As he looked over at his wife, he could see that she was already gazing at him, and ready for answers.
