Forgotten Wife: Let the Traitors Kneel Down

73 do you want me to call you ? Alessandro and Abril were taking a walk through the garden when they saw Cassian running by, when he saw them he stopped and approached to say hello, Alessandro said to him.

_I haven't seen you run for a long time, not even so energetically.

_I guess I owe that to Aby, thanks to her magic my leg injury has healed, now I can run.

_I'm glad I was of help.

Alessandro noticed that Cassian called April several times by that name Aby so he asked.

_ So? _It's his nickname, don't you think it's nice? _Yes it is.

Alessandro replied as he looked at April.

Cassian, seeing that those two were flirting in front of him, decided that it was best to leave them alone.

_Well, I'm leaving, I want to be in shape again, see you at lunchtime.

Cassian ran away Alessandro told him.

_You like your nickname, _Yes, I've never been given a nickname before.

_Cassian usually calls me Lessan, since my mother always called me that, you can do it too if you want.

April's eyes sparkled with excitement and she asked.

_ Can I really call you Lessan? _Of course.

Alessandro wrapped his arms around Abril's waist and pulled her towards him.

_Although if you prefer to call me something else, I wouldn't mind either.

Alessandro brought his mouth close to Abril's and whispered against her lips.

call me my love, darling, husband, I like them all.

He gave her a soft kiss on the lips, she responded.

_Lessan, I prefer to call you that.

_And do you want me to call you Aby or do you prefer me to call you my love, darling, darling, sweetness or my ray of sunshine? Which do you prefer? April laughed, she never imagined hearing Alessandro call her by such names and she found it a little strange, he gave a kiss on the cheek and asked.

_ What makes you so funny? Don't you like those names? I could look for another one if you want, like my little kitten, my little flower, my little bird.

While calling her by several affectionate names he kissed her cheeks, her lips and her neck, tickling her, she told him.

_To.

_ Are you sure? I really like the one of my kitten.

_Not me, I prefer you to call me Aby like Cassian does.

_Okay, but in bed while I make love to you I can call you whatever I please, right? _I guess so.

Alessandro kissed her again, his kiss was deeper and more exploratory, as he separated his mouth he said to her.

_When you've recovered, I assure you that I won't let you sleep at night.

_ Why not? Alessandro kissed her and his hands went down from her waist to her hips to her butt and he said.

_ Why do you think that is? April was a bit naive so she didn't understand what Alessandro was referring to.

_I really don't understand.

Alessandro laughed and said.

"Sometimes your innocence surprises me," Alessandro whispered in his ear.

_I mean I'll make love to you so many times that you won't be able to sleep all night.

April blushed, Alessandro laughed again and said to her.

_Until now I have limited myself because your condition has not been very good, but when you get better I will stop doing so.

April covered her face with her hands, ashamed of her husband's words and told him.

_You shouldn't say that kind of thing in this place.

_ Why not? _Someone might hear us.

_It doesn't matter.

_It doesn't matter, it's embarrassing, that kind of thing should only be said in private.

_Okay, then I'll tell you when we're in our room.

April nodded.

Alessandro released her from his embrace and said.

_Let's keep walking before the sun gets too strong.

April kept walking and asked.

_ Will you be with me all day today too? _I would love to, but I can't, there is something I have to do, but we will be together during dinner.

As they walked a gust of wind blew past and blew Abril's hat away, Alessandro ran to catch it.

When he caught it he turned around to see Abril, she looked beautiful in her white dress blown by the wind, with her long reddish hair framing her face, he walked up to her, put the hat on her and said.

_You are beautiful, I will never tire of saying it.

*** Alessandro went to the cells where they had the mine foreman, when he got to his cell he saw him curled up in a corner, Alessandro asked one of the guards who had been in charge of torturing him.

_He said something else.

_Not your majesty.

_You think I'm lying.

_I don't think so, after what we did to him it's impossible for a person not to talk.

_Open the cell.

When the guard opened the door Alessandro entered and said.

_Get up.

The foreman, upon hearing the king's voice, began to tremble with fear.

_Your Majesty, I have already told you everything I know, I swear I know nothing else.

That man was completely broken, Alessandro knew he was not lying, as he left the cell he gave an order to the guard.

_Hang him, let him serve as an example for others, the fate of traitors is death.

That man had been through so much suffering in the last few days that when the time of his death came he felt relieved because it would all finally be over.

Alessandro had to find a replacement for the foreman of the iron mine, after having organized everything he returned with April.

When he entered he did not find her in the room, but the balcony door was open, when he went out to the balcony he found her sitting on a bench that was on the balcony, she had fallen asleep with a book on her lap.

The sun was already setting, the last rays of the sun were bathing her, making her look even more beautiful than she already was, Alessandro did not want to wake her, he stayed by her side watching her sleep until the sun completely set, he moved his shoulder and said to her.

_Aby, wake up.

When she opened her eyes, April looked at him and asked.

_When did you come back? _A while ago.

_ Why didn't you wake me up? _You looked tired so I didn't want to do it.

April stood up, hugged Alessandro and said to him.

_I'm hungry, let's go to dinner.

_Of course, we will ask them to prepare your favorite dishes.

Before reaching the dining room, April remembered that she had dreamed about her mother while she was sleeping and that she had told her something important.

She stopped dead, stopping Alessandro.

He asked her.

_ What's happening? _I dreamed about my mother _Was it a nice dream? _Yes, but she told me something.

_ What did he say to you? _That I shouldn't have children until my magic fully awakened.

Alessandro understood why April's mother had told him that, with her magic being so unstable, if she got pregnant and any of those seals that prevented April's magic from If she got out of control and opened up, it was most likely that if she was pregnant she would end up losing the baby.

Alessandro saw April a little sad about that, he gave her a kiss and said to her.

_So for now we won't have children.

_But you wanted an heir.

_Yes, but I don't want anything to put you in danger, so we'll wait until you learn to control your powers, until then we'll practice a lot on how to make babies.
