Chapter Twelve

The viewport that spanned the wall behind our bed closed in preparation for landing. Yukihyo travelled back up my body drawing the breast he had neglected into his mouth. “Come, wife. I will wash your hair,” Yukihyo said with a grin knowing very well how satisfied and relaxed he had made me.

Lorca insisted on dressing me in a strapless white floor-length gown of a gauzy fabric. Then, he put my hair up in a high, elaborate bun. Fitz’s diamond necklace adorned my throat. I wore the diamond bracelet Uncle Kagan had given to me and the spherical diamond pendant with the upturned wings of Parvac that had belonged to my mother.

Nico wore his uniform. Yukihyo and Fitz wore suits. Neema and Niklos were absolutely adorable. Neema wore a white ruffled dress and a white bonnet with a large bow tied under her chin. Her feet were bare, and I wanted to kiss them. Niklos wore a long white baby gown embroidered in gold with a simple baby bonnet. Fitz smiled proudly at me and offered me his arm.

“Chirp!” Thunderdrop attached himself to my hip.

“You are stunning. I can’t wait to show you off to House Jiri.”

My men waited for us in the transport bay. Eli and Kaoti stood at attention in front of my Imperial guard. They were gorgeous in their black uniforms with their solid black eyes. My household filled me with a great deal of pride and satisfaction.

“May I please have a few pictures with us all together?”

Captain Ricimer, who along with his officers had come to see us off, offered to take pictures for me. As I stood inside of my starship, with my handsome, rich, and powerful husbands, my children, Arachnean Silk spider, friends, and my telepathic guards, I held my chin up and smiled. Two years ago, my life had been radically different. I would never be alone, poor, powerless, and afraid ever again. Yukihyo was proud of my new confidence and sent naughty thoughts to me. When I looked at his beautiful eyes, he gave me a wickedly sexy grin that triggered my desire along with my agitation. We were going to a huge celebratory party in honor of Fitz and my marriage. I had no idea when I would be able to get Yukihyo alone.

“Chitter chitter,” Thunderdrop told Yukihyo which only made his grin wider.

My guard marched out of the ship.

“Princess, Praetor Jiri awaits with transports to take everyone to his estate,” Eli informed me.

Fitz escorted me on his arm from the Empress and out into the fresh clean air of Thalassa’s land port. We were sheltered from the bustling activity around us by both my guards and the ones Praetor Jiri had brought. I watched as a few miles away Vice Admiral Dario Galerius lowered his warship to dock. I was certain that Inquisitor Drex Licinius wasn’t far behind. Reporters and the curious were kept at a distance, and I silently thanked Clan Ponidi.

Praetor Jiri smiled proudly at Fitz and held his arms out to me.
