Chapter Thirteen

After bidding good day to Adrien, Ediva entered her solar and sagged against the door. She was coming to care for her husband far more than she had ever intended. She swallowed to relieve her dry throat. But with the heat and the tightness within her belly, she strode to her pitcher set and poured some weak juice Margaret had left for her.

She drank deeply. Still, it did not soothe her throat.

In fact, heat and dizziness surged into her head and she fought to keep the room from spinning around her. Staggering to the bed, she gasped. Pain shot through her belly and she curled like a newborn atop the furs.

Then, with telltale tingling at the back of her mouth, she realized the worst. She rolled over quickly and pulled out the pot from under her bed before retching into it.

When she could, she rolled over and shut her eyes. Oh, she hadn’t felt this sick for a long time. The day before her first set of nuptials she’d retched with anxiety, but ’twas different now.

After lying on her bed for a while, she tried to sit up. That being successful, she stood tenderly and took a mouthful of the juice again. This time, it stayed. Uneasily.

She pulled off her outer tunic and fell upon the bed again. The room took up its spinning again. But as she closed her eyes to the terrible sensation, her thoughts turned to Adrien. Then darkness floated over her and stole the spinning room from her vision.
