EPILOGUE
âGOOD MORNING, PRINCESS.â
Jo opened a bleary eye and found her husband sitting on the edge of the bed beside her.
She smiled and yawned. âWhat time is it?â
âSix oâclock.â
âItâs the middle of the night.â And, considering theyâd spent most of the night making love, she was shattered.
He laughed and ruffled her hair.
âThe surfâs up.â
That woke her up.
Theseus had insisted on giving her surfing lessons, and sheâd been thrilled to discover that she wasnât completely awful at it. Now, three months after their wedding, they loved nothing more than leaving their villa early, when surf conditions were right, and spending the morning with Toby in the sea and on the beach before heading off to the palace to undertake their royal engagements. As per their instructions to their respective private secretaries, their mornings were always kept clear.
Yes, it had all worked out beautifully. With the familyâs blessing they had decided to make the villa their main dwelling. They used their apartment in the palace when it was convenient, but to all intents and purposes the villa was their home.
Theseus was staring at her expectantly.
âI think it might be a good idea for me to give it a miss today,â she said, her heart thumping at the thought of the news she was about to share with him; a secret sheâd been hugging to herself for almost a week.
âOh?â He cocked an eyebrow. âAre you not feeling well?â
âIâm feeling fine. Fantastic. I just think it would be wise to get a doctorâs advice before I go surfing over the next seven or eight months.â
She giggled when his mouth dropped open.
It was good few moments before comprehension spread over his features. âYouâre not...?â
She couldnât stop the beam widening over her face. âIâm over a week late...â Sheâd noticed her breasts growing tender, but it had been her stomach turning over at the scent of the barbecued spare ribs theyâd had for dinner two nights before that had decided it for her.
âIâm going to be a father again?â
âThereâs only one way to find out.â
Jumping out of bed, she hurried into her dressing room and pulled a pregnancy test out of the chest of drawers. Sheâd got Elektra, whom she trusted implicitly, to buy it for her the day before. With Theseus hovering outside the bathroom, she did the necessary.
Three minutes later, buzzing with excitement, she poked her head out of the door.
âWhat do you want? A boy or a girl?â
The dazed look on his face evaporated. With a whoop, Theseus lifted her into his arms and carried her back to bed.
