The Legend of the ruthless Empress Freya

75 Family time before complications

-- POV Shiro --

Mommy had just told me that she had something to tell me but I had no idea what she meant. She carried me in her arms and we walked through the large hallways of the house to join mom Gaya.

"Look, there she is !"

As I looked up, I could see my other mom waving at us. She was talking with a lot of other grown-up people, probably about very complicated things to me.

"Hello your Highness, Princess Shiro !"

Mommy was the Empress of all the people who lived in the city that had just been built. I didn't really know how she managed to do all this, but I had never seen a place as beautiful as this. People were always nice to her and our family. Mom Gaya used to say that she was like a Queen and I was the Princess of this Empire. I didn't really know what a Princess was supposed to do, but even though it was going to be hard, I promised myself that I would try until I succeeded.

"Hello."

As Mommy answered the grown ups, I waved my hand still shy and impressed with everyone.

*Sometimes they're a little scary, but they're all nice so I have to be polite and always nice too !*

They were talking to my moms and saying that the management was good and everything was ready for tomorrow.

*Management ? Mom Gaya often uses it when she talks but...I don't know what it means*

I still couldn't understand, everything was too hard. I couldn't read or write yet, so I couldn't help them even if I really wanted to. My mommy said I was still little, but I wanted to grow up quickly to help others and especially to make my moms smile. I loved it when they congratulated me because it meant that I had helped and that I was useful.

*When she strokes my head and congratulates me, it's the best thing in the world hihi~! But uuh...no there is also when I spend time with my family, with Kate and also when Lady Irrena makes me cakes. They are delicious and with a glass of milk it's even better !*

I was still lost in my thoughts and the ladies and gentlemen were already leaving.

*Oh no, I didn't have time to say goodbye..*

I was disappointed that I didn't get to say goodbye as mom Gaya kissed me on the forehead.

"I missed you this morning, did everything go well last night ?"

She smiled and stroked my cheek. The sensation was very pleasant and as I answered my tail was already starting to wiggle.

"Mmh yes it was really great ! We told each other lots of secrets with Kate before we went to sleep hehe~! And you know...you know she's my best friend !"

I didn't know if I had told her, but I wanted to say it again. Even now I thought it was great to say that I had a best friend. I was really happy because now I was like all the other kids I envied before.

"That's great, you can bring her over to the house, it seems to me that Freya won't mind, right ?"

At first I was happy to hear this but as I thought about it, I wasn't sure if I should do it or not.

"No..not...not right now..."

Even though what she had said made me happy, I didn't dare bring Kate into the house.

"Sweetie, why ? Last time you were all excited about it, what made you change your mind ?"

Mommy was still holding me and as usual she was kind and worried about me. I didn't know if I was going to make them sad with what I was going to say but I promised to always be honest. As I played with my fingers awkwardly, I answered shyly.

"I...well at the orphanage Kate has a nice room but...but it's smaller than mine. I'm afraid she won't want to be my friend anymore if...if she sees that my room is nicer. But I really really love my room, I'm not saying that to make you sad ! It's just...I know it can hurt when you don't have the same things as everyone else..."

I had barely finished my sentence when my two moms hugged me.

*What did I say ?*

I didn't understand why they were doing this but it felt good and I loved being in their arms more than anything. Even though Mommy was cold, it was weird because I wasn't cold, I felt protected and mom Gaya was warm and comforting.

"Sweetie, you don't have to invite her right away. If you're not ready, you really shouldn't force yourself and then if it really bothers you, you can play in the backyard. I can even allow all the kids to come play with you if you want them to enjoy our family garden too."

"Freya is right, it's true that you are the only child with such a nice room and you are really very kind to think of the others. If they are all invited, there will be no jealousy."

Both my moms were smiling at me with lots of love in their eyes. I didn't know what to say as I felt tears welling up in my eyes. They were so kind and at that moment I felt so loved.

*You mustn't cry. Mommy never cries. We have the same eyes so why do I cry all the time ?*

I rubbed my eyes to keep them from crying as I felt two kisses on each of my cheeks from both my moms at the same time. Mom Gaya patted my head while Mommy comforted me.

"My little moon you have time to think about it, you don't need to worry about it. Besides, didn't you want to know the surprise ?"

With all this I had completely forgotten. We were still in the empty hallway and the whole time I hadn't thought about the good news at all.

"Oh yes I do want to know !"

Mommy laughed as she took Mama Gaya by the hand to climb up the beautiful transparent tower. I loved seeing my mommy smile and laugh, because she was the prettiest and because those who were afraid of them could see like this that my mommy wasn't mean. I know that when she talks to other grown-ups she makes them tremble, but I know that it is because she is strong and nothing scares her.

*Mommy is not mean, she is just the strongest ! I'm going to be just like her when I grow up !*

As I nodded unconsciously, I could hear her voice near my ear.

"What are you thinking about sweetie ?"

"Oh..uh nothing mommy !"

*It's a secret hihi~*

This was my biggest dream. I too wanted to go and help people who needed to be saved from humans who were bad. I was still little, I couldn't even open a door without standing on my tiptoes but I knew I would grow up and achieve this dream.

"Here we are."

I had decided what I was going to do later and as I looked up, we had already reached the very top of the tower. Everything was beautiful and I still remembered the day I came here for the first time. mom Gaya sat on a chair while my other mommy sat me on her lap before talking to me.

"I'm going to use magic so you can talk to aunty Kira, so we can all be together to tell you the news, is that okay ?"

"Oh yes of course !"

I liked aunty Kira a lot, she was funny and also very nice. I couldn't see her yet but I wanted to meet her one day. She always made me laugh at teasing mommy before she got scolded and I could never stop laughing.

[Hello little Shiro, hello Gaya]

"Hello Kira !"

"Hello aunty Kira !"

Mommy had brought her little sister into our heads and I was finally going to know about the surprise. It was mom Gaya who was speaking as she took my hand to put it on her belly.

"I'm pregnant Shiro..."

"Pregnant ?"

*Does that mean she ate a lot ?*

I couldn't answer because I didn't understand the surprise. I was searching in my head but I didn't know the meaning of this word. This time it was Mommy who spoke to help me understand, she always knew everything and always came to save me.

"Sweetie, pregnant means that Gaya has a little baby in her belly. Kira will be the aunty, mom Gaya and I will be the mothers and you will be the big sister"

*A baby...big sister...OH !*

"Am I really going to be a big sister ???"

I had shouted unintentionally but I had always seen siblings on the street who were together. I didn't think I could be a big sister too so I was excited, happy and only wanted one thing was to meet this baby. I jumped off my mommy's lap to put my ear to the warm belly of mom Gaya. I couldn't hear anything but I knew there was something inside. I was happy to know that my family was going to welcome another person. I had lots of questions and this time the tears wouldn't stop as I spoke.

"Does this mean...*sniff* that...*sniff* that I would have someone *sniff* to pro...protect ?"

Mom Gaya stroked my ears as she answered and mommy smiled.

"Of course, as a big sister it will be up to you to set a good example for our child and protect him. I'm sure you'll be an outstanding big sister."

My tears were running down her beautiful clothes but I couldn't stop myself.

*Someone to protect...I could finally be useful and important*

I was desperate to do something for my family as well, and the happiness of being a big sister was mixed with the happiness of having someone in the future to look after.

I was finally starting to calm down and while I was still leaning over mom Gaya's belly, I moved a little closer to whisper to the baby.

"Little baby *sniff* can you hear me ? Don't be afraid, it's me Shiro. Grow up well so you can come to our family strong and healthy. There are lots of great things I want to show you and lots of things to tell you, so hurry up and come, I'm looking forward to you. And don't worry, if you're scared, I'll be there and I'll protect you because I...because I am your big sister !"

I hoped with all my little heart that the baby heard me and was happy and reassured. I didn't know when he was going to be born but I already loved him so much.

-- POV Freya --

My little moon was leaning on my wife's belly and secretly whispering words that were only meant for her future little brother or sister. She had cried a lot with joy and as she spoke, she sniffed in a very cute way while rubbing her little eyes. Gaya and I had heard very well what Shiro had quietly said but we had not said anything. She was sweet, caring and protective, which made me smile all the way to my ears. As I wiped her cheeks that were still wet, I gave her an assignment that made her little purple eyes sparkle.

"We'll take care of this baby, you too okay ?"

"Yes your Highness !"

I was stunned by what I had just heard and what I was seeing. My little moon was standing up straight and mimicking the soldiers' salute. Her face was serious and even though she struggled to stay upright and wobbled, she didn't fall.

The scene was absolutely adorable, touching and funny as she had even called me your highness.

"Well soldier, don't falter in your mission !"

Taking an equally serious look, imitating my daughter in turn, I stood up to click my heels and put my fist over my heart. Even Gaya had followed me right after and stood up to replicate the gesture while nodding her head determinedly. At that moment, I pointed to the dragoness' belly and added a few words.

"We will protect her majesty baby no matter what ! Won't we ?"

"Yes momm...your highness !"

[Good Freya-sama, right away Freya-sama !]

"As you wish Empress ! Count us in !"

Without realizing it we had entered into the game of our little daughter and niece. At that moment we were in our own little world, totally disconnected and enjoying the moment with our loved ones. After accepting the mission to protect the baby, silence had returned to the tower, which had only the sound of the wind in it.

"..."

We looked at each other silently for a moment and then all four of us burst out laughing. Our joyful laughter rose in this place that was only ours and that no tragedy could reach. We would probably look like fools in front of the others, but the atmosphere was filled with happiness, hope, love and dreams.

Taking care that the other two didn't hear me while talking to Kira, I looked at the beaming face of my wife and daughter and whispered.

*Hey little sister...*

[Yes onee-san ?]

*Our family is beautiful, isn't it ?*

[Yes...it is]
