Pregnant For The Royal Prince

“GOODNESS!” Aarti exclaimed and flopped on the bed, “Raghav has a son! I have a nephew! Goodness!” she laughed out, laughing so hard.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

“Oh yeah, and it’s an adorable child”, Rudra said and dropped his phone.

“But why would his saviour choose to be anonymous? As for me, he must be found and rewarded, no one helps the royals and go unrewarded. I will find him”, she said.

Rudra shrugged.

“Well, you never can tell. He said he chose to remain anonymous except he shows up by himself, so just chill”.

“Wow! I’m so mesmerized, I thank our Creator so much for this blessing”, she said rubbing her palms together.

Rudra nodded.

“As for Arya, she needs to be punished for this deadly act, this is sacrilege, an attempt to kill a royal blood, not just a royal blood, her first grandson. I mean, who does that huh?” He questioned.

“That woman, ahh, that woman is just so wicked, I can’t comprehend it. When we get to that bridge, we would cross it. As for now, focus on this bundle of joy. So, I think we should inform Prisha first, then find a way to get the message across to Raghav”, she said enthusiastically.

“Yeah, only you knows where he has been, his favourite aunt”, he made a face.

Aarti laughed.

“Is that jealousy I sense? Come on”, she laughed all the more.

“That’s your business”, he said and kissed her lips.

“Ughhhh”, Aarti mouthed.

“My perfect thank you, give it to me now”, he said and began kissing her all over.

Prisha woke up the next morning to a strange text on her phone, she rubbed her eyes looking into the wordings.

“What!” She exclaimed, “Raghav has a child? Hold on… so Rina was pregnant?” She sat up.

“Does my mom knew all these, and kept mute? Jeez! I really have to be in Kuru in few minutes”, she said and scrambled out of the bed, then rushed into the bathroom to freshen up.

Having gotten ready, she immediately wrote something on paper and rushed out, heading for her hostel mistress’ room to deliver the paper to her.

She had no stress doing that, her permission was granted and she left for the airport where the family’s private jet was already on standby.

She arrived Kuru in few hours time, and as expected, the family were all gathered at the upstairs balcony, having fun. She headed there.

“What are you guys telling me? That who has a baby? That who was pregnant?” She bursted into the balcony with these questions.

They all turned to her, Rudra and Aarti.

“Calm down Prisha, just calm down and let’s talk”, Aarti said to her and she immediately grabbed a seat, dropping her bag on the round table.

Prisha calmed down.

“I saw your text this morning Aunt Aarti, and I was shocked. I had to take permission this morning and thank God it was granted without stress”, she said.

Aarti smiled.

“Thank God. Well, yes to your question. Raghav has a child, and Rina was pregnant, she is the mother”, she said.

“What! What!” She exclaimed and turned to Rudra, and back at Aarti.

“Jeez! Does this mean my mom knew all this while? Because what you tried to explain about the baby in a basket yester night, a letter, please explain again”, she said.

“Two of my maids found the baby in front of the palace gates at about 8:30pm yester night”, Aarti said, “according to them, whoever brought the baby had banged so hard on the gate, and so they went out only to meet the baby in a basket. They said they saw no one around, so they took the baby and brought him to me…”.

“Huh? It’s a boy?” Prisha interrupted, her mouth wide opened.

Aarti smiled.

“Oh yes it is, a boy”.

“Wow!”

“So they brought the boy to me and explained their selves, I immediately went to the basket and then found this small paper, folded and hidden under the baby’s clothes. I opened it, here it is, read it yourself”, she shoved a small paper towards her on the table and she took it.

Her eyes immediately went through the lines of the paper within seconds.

“Oh my God! Oh my God! No, no, this can’t be”, she looked up from the paper, “my mother? My own mother wanted her first grandson dead? Jeez!” She exclaimed and dropped the paper on the table. Aarti took it.

“Calm down okay, at least the baby is safe now”, Rudra spoke.

“Prisha you have to calm down please, the baby is safe. The next thing is to find his parents, and find them fast”, Aarti said.

Prisha was more than bewildered, she just couldn’t believe her ears, were they tingling her?

“I need to see my nephew, where is he?” She asked and got up.

“Relax okay? You would see him”, at this juncture, Zaina entered.

“What is this that I am hearing?” She asked as she entered the balcony, Aarti has sent a text across to her too.

“You are hearing right Zaina. Raghav has a son, and Rina was pregnant”, Prisha said.

“What!” She exclaimed.
