The Cursed Prince

Chapter 261 - Harlow



The sex was more amazing than what they usually felt during their regular sweet lovemaking.

Maybe the stress that they experienced this week made their brains crave happiness more than usual. Each thrust brought them so much pleasure coupled with relaxation into their bodies and souls.

"I love you too..." Emmelyn muttered her response with her eyes closed. She bit her lip and focused her attention on their physical union. 

In the beginning, she actually felt a bit guilty for having sex while her brother was lying lifeless not far from their castle. 

However, soon her mind was all over the place and she couldn't even think about Killian, or their baby, or the witch, or whatever things in this world that were not her husband and the love that he was pouring into her.

She could feel his love and care through his every touch. The penetration was not as deep as usual, yet she still felt so full and the pleasure was overflowing. Happiness filled her heart to the brim.

It was a beautiful session and a badly needed distraction for Mars and Emmelyn who each carried their own pain and suffering while wanting to be the rock for the other person, during this challenging time in their relationship.

Their minds were filled with so much love for each other, as they enjoyed sweet intercourse to release the tension. For a good one hour, they could forget everything that had happened on the days before.

When the lovemaking finally ended, both were panting for breath and they closed their eyes to enjoy the afterglow to the fullest. The air was filled with the scent of lovemaking and it felt almost intoxicating.

Mars pulled Emmelyn into his arms and buried his face on her nape as he hugged her waist from behind and spooned her.

He loved her scent and loved the touch of her silky-smooth skin on his. He didn't know how he could be so lucky to meet this woman in his lifetime.

Yes, they were going through so many hurdles and problems to be together, but here they were, still loving each other unconditionally and supporting one another despite the circumstances. 

Mars was grateful that, over time, Emmelyn had opened her heart for him and showed forgiveness for all the bad things that happened to her in the past.

Now Mars had vowed to make up for everything and made her the happiest woman in the whole world. Every day, he woke up with the determination to fulfill his vow.

"Hmm..." Emmelyn touched Mars' hands that were hugging her bare stomach and rubbed them lovingly. Then, she turned around slowly and faced the man.

Emmelyn looked at her husband with gleaming eyes. The tears that were forming in her eyes were not caused by heartbreak and loneliness like before. They were the tears that she needed to shed to cleanse her soul from its pain.

Now, she no longer felt stuffed and suffocated by sadness. Instead, she felt an unexplainable calmness and her heavy chest slowly felt lighter and warm. 

Emmelyn raised her right hand touched Mars' cheek as she stared deep into his eyes.

She was grateful to have this man in her life. She could see how much Mars loved her and cared about her.  He was oh such a kind and devoted husband.

And no matter what happened, he always showed great love and understanding. Emmelyn had never seen a man love a woman so deeply like he was to her. She felt so lucky that the woman was her.

After she had enough of admiring his handsome face, Emmelyn tilted her face to kiss him. Mars was pleasantly surprised by her initiative and returned her kiss gently.

Both closed their eyes again to enjoy the sweet kiss, while listening to their hearts slowly beat into the same rhythm. It sounded like beautiful music.

Suddenly...

The long-awaited kick startled the parents-to-be and brought them down from the cloud.

"Whoaa..!"

"The baby is kicking again!"

Mars was so excited when he felt the fetal movement and he instantly sat up to observe Emmelyn's bare tummy. His eyes widened when he saw her stomach moved violently like a wave.

It was an amazing sight to behold, but at the same time, it made him worried that Emmelyn felt pain from their baby's enthusiasm.

"Does it hurt?" He asked worriedly. 

Emmelyn shook her head and smiled in tears. She felt extremely happy when the baby kicked again and her husband could witness it clearly. "No.. ahaha.. it doesn't hurt at all. I think our baby is awake now..."

"This is amazing..." The young father-to-be was so fascinated. He touched her stomach with both hands and hoped their baby would make another movement.

However, after five minutes, there was nothing. His face looked disappointed again.

"Maybe it has gone back to sleep?" He asked. "Athos did say babies sleep A LOT."

"Try to call the baby..." Emmelyn suggested. "Maybe it can work."

"Call the baby... what?" Mars asked her back. "We haven't prepared a name."

"Oh, you are right. We should start preparing a name to call our child," Emmelyn agreed. "Should we prepare two names? We don't know if it's going to be a boy or a girl..."

"Hmm..." Mars was deep in thoughts. He never prepared names for children because he didn't think he would be lucky enough to have them.

Sigh.

Now that suddenly the opportunity came for him and Emmelyn to conceive right away, he was drowning in so much happiness that he didn't even think about other things but her and their baby.

He forgot to prepare names, just like the time when he was so excited that he could touch such a beautiful woman and she agreed to become the mother of his children, he forgot to ask her name.

So, picking up names didn't come to his mind... until today.

"What do you think?" He asked back. "Do you have any names that you like?"

Emmelyn smiled and nodded. "Actually yes."

"What are they?" Mars looked interested. They had not talked about names before, so he wanted to know what she had in mind.

"Well.. I have several names that I like. For example, Harlow, Adrian, Amarille, or Alred." Emmelyn looked at her husband and held his hands. "Is there anything you like?"

Mars nodded. "Hm... I actually like Harlow. We can use it for either boy or girl. So, if we think the baby is going to be a girl and we call it Amarille for example, but it ends up being a boy.. it will be hard to change the name into something else after we got used to using Amarille. And the same thing will happen if we chose a male name, but the child ends up being female."

"Ahh.. you are right..." Emmelyn nodded. Her husband's thought was on point. Maybe it would be better to go with a name that could be used for both genders. "So... do you like Harlow?"

"Yes," Mars replied. "It has a nice ring to it. Our child would be either Prince Harlow Strongmoor... or Princess Harlow Strongmoor. Both sound good. Don't you think?"

Emmelyn wiped her teary eyes and nodded. She liked the name very much.
