The wedding had been delayed for a bit while Simone recovered, and by the time it rolled around, a month had passed. When it was finally time for the day, there were last minute, rushed details that were being panned out. Simone’s wedding dress was one of them. It had almost been complete, but some unexpected, last minute adjustments had to be made.
Vale, of course, had an inkling of why, but even her gossiping had it’s limits. Besides, she had a feeling it would be relevant soon.
Lewis excused himself from the small gaggle of people and walked over to Vela, “Well, she won’t have to deal with all of this for much longer.” It was obvious that he wasn’t enjoying the social aspect of it all either. But, royal duties and all. It wasn’t long before the wedding dress was complete. Sure, the kingdom was practically rushing the ceremony, but they were all happy that things were going well for King Lewis and Queen Simone. The reality was setting in that the Queen was a benevolent person, and that she calmed the Tyrant Phoenix’s rage. There were,m of course, rumors that the Queen was spiteful though, and that if anyone wronged her that she would sic the King on them.
Rumors or not, it was enough of a deterrent at least for the time.
Wedding bells rang as Lewis and Simone stood upon the podium. There was a resounding applause as the two kissed, sanctifying the marriage in the eyes of the kingdoms. Simone stepped forward, addressing her people with a bright smile.
“I’d like to announce…that I am pregnant as well…your valiant King is going to be father…”
The cheers roared across the lands…

Roughly eight or so months later, Simone was smiling. In her arms was a crying baby boy, and Simone was practically crying with joy. “Oh my sweet baby boy…welcome to the world.”
Lewis was at her side, smiling. The times had been kind to him, and the Kaliyota Auclair Kingdoms had grown and prospered. Things were looking up in the world…
Simone sighed, “I miss them…you know. It might be time…”
Lewis sighed, “I know. But it was a fun escape, at least for the time being… I bet Xeik is panicking.”
“DAMN RIGHT I AM!” a voice resonated, shaking the world around them. “WHY THE HELL ARE YOU TWO SLEEPING LIKE THIS!?”
“I mean…we wanted to?” Lewis replied with a smirk. “These are fun. First one might have been an accident, but this…well…what can I say? I’ve always wanted to be a tyrant king.”
Simone frowned, “Excuse me, though…a harem? Really?”
Lewis looked back at her, “Uh…I didn’t write that.”
“Uh huh,” Simone responded. “Well…you’re lucky that I love you.” She was playing with him. “I miss my own little tyrants though…”
