Just some one-shots I am transferring from Wattpad, to here on FF Net.There isn't an update schedule. I update as the inspiration hits me and that's also, provided I don't get writer's block.

We had just finished a meeting of the Palaces, discussing once more, the terms and conditions of The Court of Nightmares' visits. I was both physically and emotionally exhausted. Even though I have kept a relatively neutral mask on my face, I am pretty sure Rhys knew something was up. If he did know, he didn't say or acknowledge anything.As we left the meeting, I told Rhys, 'I will meet you back at the house, I am going for a walk through the Rainbow and maybe sit by the Sidra for a little bit.'
Rhys nodded, hugged me close, and gave me a kiss on my forehead. 'Alright, love. I shall see you in a little while. If you need me, just give a tug on the bond'
While I was wandering the the streets of Velaris, I was remembering the morning before we left the cabin to meet the Queens at my father's estate. I had asked if Rhys wanted children. He had said that he would be honored if I were to bare him children, he'd be honored because they were considered rare and precious. Rhys had said that if I did one day bare him children, he wanted it to be after the war with Hybern. Neither one of us has spoken about it since that morning, we didn't dare to speak of it or hope for it.We didn't know who was going to win the war or, who would live through it. Even though the war with Hybern was tense and miserable, we did have intimate nights, fueled by hope, fear and everything in between. Those nights were what, if you ask me, are what helped Rhys and I keep our sanity. That was just about two and a half months ago.
The time I wandered through the Rainbow, was spent trying to figure out how in the hell I was to tell Rhys that he was going to be a father. The news was monumental. Not just because he is High Lord, and I am High Lady. Not just because children were considered rare. The news was monumental due to the fact that, our child has the potential to become one of the most powerful Fae in, the entirety of Prythian's history. Somehow, in the midst of my reverie, I had made my way to the Sidra. The spot is one that I found when Rhys was gone one day to a meeting at the Hewn City. It was quiet, out of view from the city and, it was peaceful.All of sudden, a wave of nausea had hit me, like a ton of bricks. I had tried to hold the wave of nausea back, but couldn't. I sent a wordless plea, asking for Rhys to come and get me. Off in the distance, I heard a pounding of boots on the sidewalk.
As I saw the blackness start surrounding me, I felt my mate grab my hair out of my face with one hand, the other rubbing my back. He had no sooner did that, and then I vomited. The wave of nausea lasted for ten minutes.
When I was finally finished, I looked at my mate and his face was filled with concern. "Are you alright my darling Feyre?"
I gave him a weak smile and a slight nod, "There's something I want to talk to you about. I want it to be just the two of us, though. I figured we could go to the cabin?"
Rhys looked extremely nervous but, he agreed. He sent word to Morrigan, making sure she knew that we were going to the cabin and we're not to be disturbed unless it was an emergency. It wasn't but two hours later when we arrived at the cabin. When we opened the door, the table was already covered with various snacks, none of which I wanted to eat, right now. I did grab a hot cup of tea for both Rhys and I. Setting our cups down on the end table, I told Rhys that I was going to change into something a little more comfortable. I wanted something comfortable, that required little effort to put on. Since all of my clothes here at the cabin are tight fitting, I just threw on one of Rhys' t-shirts.
As I was walking down the stairs, I decided to just send him images from my secret visit to Madja's clinic.
Before I stepped off of the staircase, I wrapped myself in darkness and time; winnowing right onto the lap of my mate. Rhys had startled and made a girly squeal as soon as I landed in his lap. The look on his face was priceless as much as it was hilarious; my laughter being solid proof.
'Weren't expecting that, now were you?'
Rhys looked serious and stern for a minute before he snickered and flicked my nose. 'No, I wasn't expecting that." He handed me my cup of tea, before picking up his.
We sat in silence for a couple of minutes, sipping our tea. I was wondering which images to send down the bond to my mate. I didn't want to straight out tell him. I wanted him to guess a little. Basically a mind to mind scavenger hunt. I will admit, that I am nervous because what if something goes wrong? There's also the fact that I haven't experienced anything like this, before. The first image I sent down the bond was, the night we returned to Velaris. It was a frenzy of happiness, love, desire, and complete adoration for one another.
Rhys looked confused for a minute, until I explained why I sent the image to him. 'Instead of outright saying what I need to tell you, I'm going to send you a few images down the bond. See if you can scavenge the clues to figure it out.'I sent him a few more mind to mind images. After sending them, he still hadn't a clue what it was I needed to tell him.
Usually he is good with scavenging for clues and such. Maybe his brain was clouded with stress due to the aftermath of the war? If the news of my pregnancy wasn't making me utterly terrified with glee, I would've been more worried. I took Rhy's hands in mine and brought them to my stomach. It was then that it finally dawned on him what I was trying to tell him.
'It seems my favorite overgrown bat, is going to be a father.'
My mate's face lit up like a lightbulb. His violet colored eyes were laden with silver tears of happiness. His face crumpled, as he started to sob softly. Rhys was finally getting the family he's always wanted and deserved.
The stars listened and our wish was granted.
