Requitted Love

Meraek was still cold in talking with the queen but when she heard her love groan in pain, she turned her back to face Henshupta who looked thinner than usual, so pale and has lots of blood on her arms and armor. Her baby bump is almost visible and it made her heart leap for joy though she still felt jealous, mad and cold. Seeing her beloved made her cold heart melt and ran to help Henshupta sit on a marble chair.

I'm sorry Meraek, when I was held captive by Princess Sahkbe her brother took me as his slave and raped me. But in the long run he fell in love with me and took me in his care. We became close friends and a faithful ally of Egypt. Ahhh…..ahhhh… my stomach it's very painful….Mera….ahhhh…..Henshupta cried in pain touching her belly.

Sssshhhhh…. Don't talk bitch!!! I love you too and maybe we need to take off this armor, it's hindering your breathing. Come, help me here!, Meraek added smiling though she is still mad at Henshupta, she helped her take off the metal armor and exposed the queen's baby bump that is so evident and beautiful that Meraek can't help but feel the queen and her love's belly. You're on your fifth month, hmmm….she is going to be a strong and beautiful girl just like you!, Meraek said clearly while laughing with how the baby in the queen's belly leapt hearing her voice. She knows me too well because you've been speaking to her about me and your dreams make her so at home with me that I'm like her mother she just met now.

Yes, I did and I love you, why I tell her about you all the time. Especially when I had life with the Nubes and being raped, I thought of you all the time, every single minute and day until I see you today after two long and lonesome years, Henshupta now couldn't help but cry a river of tears. As if Henshupta just released all the hurts, misses and kisses she had endured while she's in Nubia with the people who made her suffer but let her know herself more and made her realize how strong she is as a queen and pharaoh of Egypt.

Meraek smiled while tears flow her eyes for she too missed Henshupta so much that she held her face and kiss it hard, long with so much longing. I missed you so much, too!!!!

Meraek held Henshupta and helped her walk to a small but comfy room in the temple where she gets to rest and relax when she had people ask come and visit her to pray and ask her guidance about many things and experiences. Meraek laid the queen in her back to protect the baby. She then placed herself on the queen's side to caress her belly then kiss her on the mouth gently. When the desire to be with Henshupta kicked in, Meraek couldn't stop herself to touch Henshupta's breasts who moaned in silence. Meraek smiled and teased the queen more by touching her private part. Henshupta suddenly sat and moved on top of Meraek and as if her strength coming back, she ravaged her beloved priestess and made love with her once, twice and more after each breathtaking moment, made Meraek die with so much love, fire and ecstasy. Both women have missed each other's touch, kiss and connection that they stayed at the temple the whole day.

Hekanefer, Sabah and Angianasim have been talking in the dinner table with the music and dancers of the palace celebrating their victory over selfish motives and nonsense war. Some fo the council leaders were present and were talking about how they will deal with Sadiki and his corroborators in the plot to kill the pharaoh. Jardin-Ur is a kind man and they just used him for their own selfish desires and greed of power. Sabah gave the general a golden crown of faithfulness to Egypt and a honor as the greatest and bravest general to ever served the nation and the pharaoh, Queen Henshupta, who is nowhere to be found as of the moment… All were looking to the curtained door where the queen was supposed to appear but she wasn't around to hand the award to General Ur's family. Sabah just smiled and gave the award to the family without waiting for the queen. He just managed to look at the courtier, but to no avail he also didn't know where the queen went thus shrugged at Sabah making a face. Henshupta is indeed gone, but in Meraek's arms that night at the temple.

I missed you so much, Meraek whispering since she's still flushed and breathing hoarsely just a few minutes after a long yet amazing sex with the queen. I love you…I missed you too and more!
