It was his fault though for the lack of time spent on this relationship of theirs, Ardyn was busy healing day in and day out, he was not capable of giving this lovely woman the attention she so desired, or even trying for an heir. Bringing a child into a relationship like this? It would be a disgrace, and yet, his father was pushing him, but no, Ardyn wouldnāt do that.
āThank you, youāre too kindā but it is me why this marriage is failing, and not progressing like one should.ā He would be out healing again tomorrow, the scourge was a fast spreading disease, there was no time for him to settle down, not when the astrals relied on him to stop it.
She heard her parents talking too? Ardyn did remember the hushed conversations that his had, although they were less hushed and more made apparent to him on why itās important he marries, why they didnāt pick Izunia? He is the one to be on the throne first since Ardyn took up healing, the nation needed a King.
āI heard mines speaking too about the marriageā Iāll never understand them, especially my father, he seemed more enthusiastic about it than my mother did.ā His mother was much more understanding about Ardynās situation, much more caringā¦ his father howeverā¦ all he seemed to care about was the etiquette of royals, did he not realise he was being extremely hard on Ardyn?
āDo not worry so much about me. Iām rather used to being alone.ā She could be angry and bitter, but for what? It wouldnāt make him shirk his duties, it wouldnāt make her have a child any sooner, it wouldnāt do anything for their marriage. Instead, she simply inhaled and exhaled, letting it slip away.. or sink further into her soul.
āWeāre not failing, weāre simply not flying.ā Gentiana, for such a quiet soul, seemed to be quite the optimistic. She believed in the simple truths, the easy things, the innocence of life. Her thumbs stroked his cheeks before she leaned up and kissed either side, āI am your wife, and you are my husband. I am here for you to lean on as well.ā
Children had once been a longing for her, but as the scourge grew, she wasnāt sure it was a good time to bring babes into the world. It could wait, or so she kept telling herself. Stepping away slowly, she laced her fingers together in front of her as she looked away as well, āevery burden isnāt yours to bare alone.ā
