Blue Royalty: New Blood

Her arms still wrapped around his, Jess found herself with a mischievous smile on her lips as Dorian offered an alternative… well… bet. Stopping in her tracks, she turned to face him and Ethan with a slight look of confusion before he started - explaining how if he won, they would start all over again and forget all the times she won. “So are we forgetting both of our wins… meaning we both start from ground zero, Love?” Jess asked to figure out if he was just signing her out or if it was a fresh start for both of them. She was about to continue, telling him her side of the bet before he beat her to it and told her that her favors don’t double. Rude. The audacity on this man to come up with his own rules and not let her in on the fun. Despite that, she was thinking about it. “Fine, but I want to use a few of my favors with the very tiny chance I don’t win” Jess explained, putting her arms around her husband. “1. I want to go on a trip… we haven’t taken the kids to New York yet so I was thinking… after the wedding, what do you say darling? Well… I posed that as a question and we both know I’m using a favor so we’re going,” Jess responded with a soft smile before looking over at her son with a smile. "What do you say Ethan? Trip to New York? Fashion and Food paradise? . “Two… hm… take me on a date. It’s been a while since we’ve had the time to reallllly do that. Maybe in New York, we let the nannies stay with the kids?” Jess questioned. And finally, with the last favor, she brought her lips to her husband’s ears, "And finally, I want you too… whispering everything she wanted her husband to do to her in bed that night with a cheeky expression on her lips. She only pulled away when she had fully mentioned every dirty thing on her mind, leaving her husband’s eyebrows raised likely at everything she had said. “So we have a deal then?” she questioned, keeping her body near his.

It wasn’t necessarily an important story… but it was important to her. While she hadn’t told her husband about this before now, it wasn’t because she was trying to hide it… simply that she never found the right time to tell him… until now at least. Sophia DeLoughrey was as much a part of her as her other identities were over the years. The one she played in North Korea… the time she took down a European Prince… the time she ruined a Cuban mafia… even the time she took down that international spy pretending to be a prince after marrying him… yeah let’s not tell that story to her husband.

She laughed slightly at his question before leaning on him again. “I came to Napa Valley… bloody scared Dorian. I didn’t feel like myself… I was exhausted… upset… and the DeLoughrey name just made me… feel safe,” she replied. “I didn’t want to be anyone else at that moment… and I guess I never have to be again” she continued. She was… bloody happy that things turned out the way they did… maybe not exactly the process of getting to this point, but she was happy where she was. Though, her eyes did widen at his next sentiment. “Weelllll since you mention it darling…” she mumbled, stopping once again. “We might… actually get to use that name since you got me pregnant again… oh damn…look at the time… love you, I should go,” With that, Jess kissed Dorian’s cheek and Ethan’s before rushing away and leaving him confused (also so she could have a head start on looking for her kids). Well, that was one way to tell your husband you were pregnant.
