Warning: This ch contains some pretty steamy stuff sort of in the middle & the start to a lemon =)


Walking into her room Loretta quickly took off her dress & slipped into her nighty; Her Sapphire blue nighty. Going through the door that connected their rooms Loretta saw Atem sitting on the end of his bed without his crown or cape on, "Hello, my dear..." said Atem as he got up & walked over to his new wife "Well dont you look as beautiful as ever" he finished as he took her hand & kissed it then led her over to the bed.

"Come & lay down with me," said Atem with a smirk as he let go of Loretta's hand & slithered on to his bed, laying a seductive position, crawling up onto the bed Loretta made her way over to Atem, lying down on her side so they faced one another. Moving closer to Loretta, Atem reached over & caressed the side of her face "Are you ready" he whispered as his heart was starting to race with anticipation & anxiety, leaning forward Loretta placed a chaste kiss on his lips before moving away & looking deeply into his eyes.

Moving his head down Atem began to trail soft kisses & nips down Loretta's neck towards her collarbone sucking at certain points "aah..." Loretta moaned as she arched her back in pleasure but kept her hands down near her sides, noticing her nervousness Atem stopped, gently taking her hand he placed it on his now bare chest over his heart making Loretta blush "Can you feel that? Im nervous too, Just relax, close your eyes & let me pleasure you until you feel comfortable touching me".

Closing her eyes Loretta took in a deep breath & then slowly exhaled as she once again felt Atem's hands & lips on her skin, shifting her hand from its place on his chest Loretta started to move it & felt him shiver slightly as her fingers brushed over one of his nipples. "Its ok Loretta..." he encouraged "Keep going that feels really nice, you can go as low as you want" gliding her hand back up his chest she snaked her arms around his neck & began to kiss him deeply as she could feel him ghosting his fingers down her back.

Pulling her closer Atem began to kiss Loretta more passionately, now that she was a bit more comfortable with him they parted for a short moment so that they could both regain their breath back & so Loretta could slip her nighty off over her head "P-please Atem...I want you..." she said as she looked up at Atem with a deep red blush on her face "Are you sure, I don't want to rush you if you're not ready," said Atem with a smile as he kissed the tip of her nose "I want to do this...I love you Atem, please..." she panted, reaching around behind him Atem untied his kilt flicking it off onto the floor, exposing his hardened manhood, positioning himself between her legs he paused "Loretta, I'm going to go slow for a start but please tell me if I am hurting you" nodding to him in agreement he started to slowly thrust inside of her.

Finally reaching his climax he collapsed on top of Loretta panting heavily, kissing her cheek he flopped down onto his side of the bed & sat up. Getting up onto her knees Loretta crawled over & hugged him from behind "you ok Atem..." she said resting her chin on his shoulder, "Thank you, Loretta, that was wonderful I just hope I didn't hurt you too much" he said turning to look at her with a smile on his face "It was a bit painful for a start but that is usual for my first time" Loretta said with a smirk letting go of him & moving around to lay her head in his lap to look up at him.

Looking down at Loretta he smiled caressing the side of her face "Would you like to come out & stand at the balcony with me, there's something I want to show you" "aww that is so nice, let me get my nighty back on first" Loretta said with a giggle

Three months later

One morning while both Atem & Loretta were in the middle of a meeting Loretta started to feel unwell, shrugging it off due to the heat wave Egypt was having she continued on listening to the conversation that was happening in front of her.

But something wasn't right, the nauseous feeling in her stomach wasn't going away & now she was starting to feel light-headed, leaning over the side of her throne she hoped that Atem didn't see her but it was too late, he had spotted her acting strangely & sweating profusely out of the corner of his eye. "Loretta..." he whispered out of the corner of his mouth looking concerned "Are you ok, my love?", nodding slowly Loretta gave Atem a weak smile & tried her best to stay focused.

However nothing ever goes according to plan, being that it was hot Loretta was getting thirsty & could feel her throat getting drier everytime she swallowed, feeling the almost dry saliva slide down her throat she coughed & then instantly regretted it.

Feeling the bile rising up inside of her Loretta leapt out of her throne which made the surrounding Royal court members gasp in shock as she darted off to the nearest bathroom to be sick, watching the Queen leave in such a hurry Seto walked up closer to Atem "Excuse me, your highness, I hate to be nosy but is the Queen ok" "Thank you for your concern Seto, but I honestly don't know, Isis? Could you please come with me to help find Loretta" "Of course your Majesty" said Isis bowing "I'm sorry for this interruption everyone but I must go & see if my Queen is ok, if I'm not back within half an hour I will postpone the meeting until later this evening" said Atem as he began to walk out of the throne room.

With Loretta

Sitting on the ground next to the fountain in the outer courtyard Loretta lay over the edge swirling the cool water around with her hand, occasionally splashing a bit on her face, suddenly she could hear someone calling her name, it was Atem, his voice was unmistakable. Trying to call out to best ability Loretta opened her mouth but nothing came out, her voice had gone, she wanted to let Atem know where she was but how could she if she had no voice? And then she remembered something Atem had taught her "{Atem...}" She thought through their new mind link.

With Atem

As Atem & Isis walked through the Palace calling Loretta a familiar voice echoed in his head,"{Loretta...Is that you, where are you my Beautiful Queen}" he thought back to her as he stopped dead in his tracks & gasped which made Isis looking concerned at her ruler "My King, are you ok" "Yes Isis, I'm fine, I think I may have just found Loretta" he said with a nod "Oh that is excellent news, where is she" "Excuse me Isis while I ask her..." he said shutting his eyes "{Where are you, Loretta...We have been calling you & haven't heard an answer}"

With Loretta

Knowing that the trick had worked & could now hear Atem's voice very clearly she responded "{Im in the outer courtyard by the fountain...Im sorry for worry you Atem but I think I have lost my voice, I tried to answer, but I just couldn't}" thought Loretta to Atem as a small trail of tears ran down her face.

With Atem

"We need to act fast Isis, Loretta is in the outer courtyard & she sounds like she is in some distress, I have only been with her for not even four months & already im failing to protect & look after her" Atem said sadly "Do not fear your Highness we will take the Queen to my healing chambers so that I can examine her for the cause of her illness" Isis said with a bow "Thank you Isis, for everything"

With Loretta

Hearing Atem's voice getting louder she knew he was getting closer, pushing herself up on one arm Loretta pulled herself up onto the edge of the fountain, only to slip off & fall with a loud thump onto her back. Crying but not being able to be heard Loretta hoped that Atem would get to her soon before she baked in the hot sun.

Coming through the entrance to the outer courtyard Atem spotted Loretta & rushed over to her, kneeling by her side "Loretta, what's wrong, why are you crying" he said as he picked up her hand & kissed it "{I tried to pull myself up onto the edge of the fountain but I think the edge was wet & my hand slipped & I landed back down on my lower back}" she explained to Atem as he sat nodding in agreement & caressing her cheek "Its ok I'm here now Loretta, I'm going to take you to Isis' healing chamber so she can see if you are ok" said Atem as he put Loretta's arm over his shoulders & gently picked her up bridal style being minding of her now hurt back.

Coming to the door of Isis' medical room, Atem gently place Loretta down on the bed noticing that she winced in pain "I'm so sorry Loretta, I'm here for you" he said kissing her forehead & she looked up & gave him a teary-eyed smile. Starting up near Loretta's chest, Isis moved her glowing hands down Loretta's body using her Millenium Necklace to see what was wrong, stopping at her stomach Isis smirked. Seeing his priestess change in facial expression Atem raised an eyebrow & looked at Loretta then back to Isis "What seem's to be the problem Isis" "the Queen will be just fine but I have some good news for you my King, your Queen is with child; Your child" Isis beamed as she bowed.

Looking at Isis wide-eyed, Atem also beamed "I can't believe it, Loretta did you hear what Isis just said" nodding & then blushing Loretta looked at Atem "{Could you ask Isis how many children we are having}" smiling & then nodding at her he turned back to Isis "would you be able to tell us how many babies you see" "Oh yes of course, sorry your Majesties, um...I believe I can see two & they look to be about 3 months in gestation, however I don't know of their gender" "Wow, we are having twins" "Congratulations my Pharaoh, now would you like to take the Queen back to your chambers so she can rest her hurt back" "Oh yes, in all this excitement I almost forgot, Sorry Loretta" said Atem as he looked down at Loretta as she reached her hand up to hold the side of his face.

Getting Loretta back to his room he gently laid her down on the bed & then sat beside her, holding her hand "Is there anything I can get for you?" "{Could you please get me a drink of water, I'm really thirsty & it might help bring my voice back}" "of course, would you like anything else" he said as Loretta watched him walk over to cabinet where the water jug sat along with a few bunches of grapes & other fruit "{Maybe just a small bunch of grapes, please Atem}"
