I couldn't do this I couldn't let him kill our child or my kingdom they did nothing to deserve this its all my fault. I knew what I had to do I knew I had to tell Stark. I looked up at him and he smiled at me .      " Stark? Kevin said that if I didn't get back together with him that he would kill me and anyone in the kingdom who dared to stop him. I know I'm the queen and I should be strong but I'm scared."     " queen flora there's nothing to worry about you have me and you always will. I would never let him hurt you. you mean to much to me." Stark held me closer as he said this. almost as if he was in love with me.    I looked up at Stark I feared telling him. what would he say when he found out that I was carrying Kevin's baby. I knew I had to tell him sooner or later because if I didn't he would find out on his own.  I couldn't lose Stark too. I swallowed my pride and decided to tell him now.    "Stark?" I looked up at him and bit my lip trying to hold back the tears that threatened to spill.  he looked down at me and smiled a heart warming smile that I knew I didn't deserve because I was about to destroy my only friend right now.    " yes queen flora?" he looked at me expectantly. I knew that what I was about to say might destroy whatever we had going but I had to tell him someone had to know. and I trusted stark with my life I knew he wouldn't hurt me ever.   " I'm pregnant." I looked down at the ground I could tell that I hurt him. "  I don't know what to do if he kills me he's kills his own child and I don't think  he would care he and I conceived this child its my responsibility to make sure it survives its the only heir to the throne I didn't plan this I didn't want this but it happened and I have to deal with it please help me Stark."   he looked at me with sympathy . " we do the only think we can do you accept him back or you fight him and hope we kill him before he kills you." I nodded my head yes and stark called for a meeting of the guards in the war room. like seriously why do we have so many rooms and id ask why the f*ck we need a war room if we never went to war but I guess this is why.    the war room was  painfully simple intricate maps spread out across as and the long table witch looked to fit about 80 or so people  it like the rest of the castle was a void of color except it did have a war room the again what did you expect.

       a few minutes later all the guard that could be were gathered in the war room. I hesitated on addressing them until stark nudged me and I knew that if I didn't he would and they would lose all faith in there queen. I took a deep breath and addressed the 60 or so men in front of me.

       "I'm sorry to inform you but were going to war to fight my mate who has threatened to kill not only me but unknowingly our unborn child also. this fight with the elves with be hard they won't fight fair but if you believe in fighting for your kingdom and the life of your queen the unborn hair and those you love we can win and I will fight along side of you this is my battle and I'm asking those of you willing to fight please join me in the throne room tomorrow morning at 10 am sharp."

    with that I turned on my heals and left.
