167 The Fear...

Queen Ariadne's POV.

"A son?" My widened at his request. He was serious about it. But we have Edward already? Did he not see him as a son again?

"Yes my lady. Give me a son. My blood" The emperor told me again. His hands were still on my breast. I looked away quickly. This was confusing. I thought that he was impotent. That's why there were no children in his harem. "If you do that, I will make you the most happiness woman on Earth. You will become the empress of the world.

'Wow...that was a huge offer' I thought. Every woman's dream in the harem is to become the empress and the mother of the next king of Akkad. 

"Perhaps my request will not be granted" He said, sadly. "Forget about it and give me a smile."

I turned to him "don't say that your highness. I will be happy to carry your child."

"I hope so. We never get want we want the most in life" he said, caressing my cheeks with the back of his hands.
