HER MAJESTY,ADAAH DUCHESS OF ANNEBERA,CORDONIA(POV)
King Constantine and I felt connected to each other when I met him for the first time at the social season.His smile,his eyes every charm made me want him even more. I was from a low nobility house, every other lady in that social season avoided talking to me for this reason. Constantine was quite impressed by me and I craved my path to prove him, council and Cordonia that I would be fit to be their Queen.Regina hated me to the core. She was kind at heart but yes, there are no reasons for a person to not like you.She was upset when the King chose me.Anyways,leaving the social season behind, Constantine and I had a very extravagant wedding.My wedding dress was so intricately designed and my Veil was long ,showing the prosperity , name and fame of my husband. It was our first night after marriage that we were so close to each other. Prince Leo was entertained by being with his friend Damien all night.King Constantine that night reminded me about my duties for Cordonia.He specifically mentioned the ability of the Queen to bear the heirs.I felt that connection snap immediately. Was I just a means for child and wasn’t Prince Leo enough for throne? I would love to see him succeed his father’s throne. But a child so early? I was just 20 years old.I hardly knew politics, I had to learn so much and a kid. Anyways, in my wedding vows I had swore to obey my husband, whatever he demands. Our enemies were growing stronger day by day especially the Nevrakis. Even during the parties I felt alone, I felt no one was with me.After a month and half into my marriage I found out that I was pregnant about 3 weeks.I was scared,excited, happy and anxious.What if I am not a good mother to this child because I used to be with Prince Leo. But handling him was like handling a whirlpool. Constantine was not at all happy with my way of handling Leo.I love him so much that it hurts me to punish him even if he does something wrong. I know it was wrong but you can’t be harsh with kids at such a tender age. Anyways, press was hungry for news about me. What I ate,what I wore,how I looked,would it be a prince or a princess,who would be King’s successor,etc?The nine months flew by attending political matters like women equality,their voting rights change in abortion laws cause the world was changing ,progressing why shouldn’t we change.Uplifting poverty,proper tax resolution,trade relations with other parts of Europe and world,famine in northern part of Cordonia destroying crops of apples and an endless list.

The day came when I went into labour.The full journey of pregnancy was enlightening yet scary,but I would cherish those moments forever,all that sickness ,pain everything. I had to have a c-section surgery. I wasn’t even conscious when our little prince was born.After the anesthesia wore off ,the pain I experienced was inexplicable but I wanted to see my baby no matter what.The nurse informed me that a little prince was born to bring merry in Cordonia ,then she brought my little baby and when I saw him, I cried and I also don’t know why did I cry.Constantine came in and hugged both of us.The prince looked more like me. I smiled to myself and Constantine questioningly looked at me and baby,”What would you like to name our little prince?”My eyes were still wet and I answered him,”He will be known as Prince Liam”.The nurse interrupted us so, I could feed my baby. I was happy that for some time I finally had my baby to cuddle with. Prince Leo wasn’t the child who would cuddle.But yes, sometimes he would.We came home to palace. Some days passed after Liam’s birth. I felt as if he was my world now. I didn’t neglect my duties for Prince Leo. He was so happy to finally have a little brother at his side.He matured a little I felt. He did his pranks quite less.Ofcourse reporters were crazy for pics of Prince Liam and Leo together. Constantine arranged a photography session for them after Liam was about 3 months old,that went without hassle.Though Prince Liam’s pictures were published as soon as he was born,but Constantine thought both princes were required to be together from start.
One day,we got to know that our court hosted a famous astrologer from Southern Asia probably India,whose predictions were quite accurate.His name was Rishi Ved and he used to analyse birth charts to predict future. King Constantine was skeptic but there was no harm at least seeking his advice. For Prince Leo he predicted that he wouldn’t stay near his home and never come back once he leaves Cordonia. He would be smart , kind but will not rule Cordonia. I immediately told him that eldest sons succeed the throne. He said it is probable that he may abdicate by the age of 32 and leave his entire home/country behind for a girl from western+eastern part of world. I asked him to foretell the future of Prince Liam. He predicted ,”The Fate Of Cordonia Lies in his birthchart. He will rule this country, he will never have an easy life. He would have knowledge but he has to use it wisely. He will be a master of skills and diplomacy.He will be tested time and again.He will take the country to zenith or be the reason for end.” I was shocked after hearing this. Constantine looked worried too. Then Rishi Ved muttered,” I see that his birth chart’s seventh house is malefic yet much more benevolent. He would marry a girl from west but she would be a fierce Queen of Past who would come here to save the country along with Prince. “
Now, only time will tell whether this prediction would be true or false.I & Constantine made sure these documents wouldn’t go in hands of public or reporters.I am scared for both the princes and for my country,causes enemies are hiding out there to destroy my perfect realm.
