As they walked through the Palace everyone was silent, Xavier didn't speak to any of them just showed them the wing of the place they would be staying in. Even Endymion didn't try and make conversation with him. Serenity knew Nephrite was also a quiet person, she just hoped he to did not poses the coldness that his brother was portraying now towards them. Lita never seemed to complain about him being cold, however she was sad to say the past few weeks she hadn't spoken with her Senshi much about personal things they had going on in their life. Though she had caught her Senshi and the brunette guard in very compromising situations more times then she could say which made her worry a lot less.
When they were in their room alone Endymion made sure to lock all the doors to the room and searched around the room as if making sure no one was in the room with them. He then took Serenity's hand and pulled her into the small bathroom.
"You stay at my side when we are here, and make sure to hide Small Lady I don't want Xavier to know you are with child. Not while we are here." he whispered almost so low Serenity almost missed what he said.
"I thought you said that we would be safe." she frowned
"Xavier has a hard time with change. I thought from the letters that he was well over the fact that we were wed. However I am not taking the chance, I also do not believe he is happy with Lita as his brothers wife since she is also not from Earth."
"He wont hurt her will he?"
Endymion frowned and let out a long sigh rubbing his hands through his hair roughly. Serenity could see he was torn with how he should answer the question, his face creased making him look years older then he really is.
"He is loyal to the crown and to his brother, I do not believe he will try and hurt Lita, and I know he wont try anything against you as long as I am near he wont attack me."
After that conversation Serenity was uneasy for the rest of the night. Dinner was the worst when they all had to sit with Xavier an his wife to eat. His wife was a small mousy brunette with a round pregnant stomach, she rarely spoke even when the girls congratulated them on her pregnancy. She seemed to be very far along. Throughout the whole dinner Serenity could feel Xavier's eyes boring into her making her feel sick. Endymion tried to wrap his calming energy around her but she could tell that he to was not calm.
"You can glare all you want Xavier. She will still be our Queen." Nephrites voice cut through the silence like a hot knife.
Xavier's eyes grew colder sending shivers own Serenity's spine when they made eye contact.
"An Imposter queen not of our planet. Just like your wife is also not meant to be here, and yet it seems this is the new thing to marry outsiders who know nothing of earth or its people." his voice was low and calm as he eyed the guard and the Senshi. "Let us hope that non of them can have any spawn." he said harshly causing his wife to gasp and look at him.
"I-I am so sorry for my husband he-"
"Do not apologize for me when I mean what I say." he shouted slamming his hand on the table causing his wife to cower into her seat.
Endymion went to stand but Serenity touched his arm shaking her head before standing and turning a glare towards him. She hoped she resembled her mothers cold stare she had seen her use many times.
"You, should watch how you speak to and about your superiors. I am your Queen it does not matter if you like me or where I come from, you will make sure to keep all your hateful and cruel opinions to yourself until we leave. Otherwise we may have to punish you for treason." she spoke firmly her eyes not leaving his. In that moment she decided she would no longer cower from people who did not like her, they were not worth her fear.
"As for the 'spawn' you do not want us to have." she placed her hand on her stomach smoothing her dress down in a way so that the bump was on full view. "Not only am I your Queen but I carry your Kings heir, which will be born here on earth. That means she will be the next queen, so I suggest you change our views."
Xavier's eyes were wide as he stared at her belly and then back up into her eyes. Serenity then sat down breaking eye contact from him before turning to him again.
"Another thing, your wife is carrying your child you should respect anyone who chooses to have your spawn as you put it."
When she said that Lita and Rei let out an un-lady like bark of laughter before covering their mouths with their hands. Ami hid her face behind her hand trying not to show her response while Mina choked on her drink almost spitting it out on Malachite who sat across from her. Xavier seemed appalled by the response but said nothing as he went back to eating his food. Getting back to their room Serenity braced herself for the lashing she was sure Endymion would give her for telling him about small lady when he had said not to. She was shocked when he kissed her fiercely making her lips feel bruised.
"You aren't mad?" she gasped out as he ripped her dress open not worried about damaging the dress at all.
"I am furious, however that was the most beautiful I have ever seen you showing off my heir as you put it." he whispered as he continued to undress her an then himself making sure she was ready for him before he turned her and bent her over the bed her arms holding her self up before he took her from behind. Neither of them lasted very long and Serenity barely remembered when he tucked her into the warm blankets.
The wedding was scheduled early in the morning. Lita and Nephrite decided they did not want to stay for the reception afterwards and would rather just leave to go to Jadeites home. Endymion insured Nephrite's brother multiple times that he would personally be sure that they consummated the marriage. Serenity appreciated that Endymion fought so hard to keep her Senshi's privacy. She did wish they had that option but it seemed so long ago now. Serenity was sad that it seemed they would not be home for a long time, already being gone a little over two weeks now with how long traveling was between each stop.
"You look beautiful Lita."
Lita decided to wear a very simple slip silk dress that trailed behind her tall frame as she walked. Her hair was in her signature curly ponytail with a small gold vine head piece. Endymion officiated this wedding, Xavier watching his face clearly still showing how displeased he was with his brothers new Wife.
Serenity could tell they were all happy to leave, Serenity promised they celebrate their marriage when they were settled at home. As they traveled to Jadeites' the land became more rural and warmer though still chilly not nearly as bad. Just as they neared the village serenity heard a rushing noise she had never heard before.
"The Ocean." Endymion said pointing out his window of the carriage, sand was everywhere with water going as far as the eye can see the water coming up in waves and crashing.
"How beautiful." Mina said and Serenity nodded in agreement.
"Before nightfall we shall take a walk then, it will be good for us all to stretch our legs." Endymion said as the carriage stopped in front of the smallest village Serenity has seen yet. Even the palace itself was smaller and more minimal then the other two they had been too.
"Welcome!" A man with golden hair yelled as he walked towards them. Immediately she knew that was Jadeites father. "Endymion, and Serenity, I am sorry I could not attend the wedding." he smiled bowing slightly with a smile "Lady Maya has informed me of your heir congratulations."
"Thank you, we are honored to be here." Endymion smiled clapping the man on the shoulder.
"Now which one of you is Rei?" he looked over all the Senshi as Rei stepped forward giving a small nod of the head towards him.
"Beautiful, and full of fire I see, just like my Jade." he smiled fondly at her with a nod of his head and looked at Jadeite "Your mother would be so happy." he turned quickly back to the castle
"Come, come we have a whole feast set up in all of your honor. Not everyday you have so many gifted people and royals in your village the villagers are very excited."
