I am going to be working soo slow today. might take a nap during lunch. I feel like I can’t function

WIFE (One Shot for Regal)

The stars were out, and she could finally rest.

Magdalena let out a breath as she clicked the door shut, closing her eyes in relief. She did not foresee that the celebrations would last all day, but once her people found out about the marriage, many who were close by traveled to the castle. Not only did Volais gain an Emperor, but a peace without limits and the benefits that come with it. Trade will be bountiful, magic can finally find its way back into the lands, and war… War will slumber once more.

“Magdalena?” A gravely voice interrupts her thoughts, making her skin prickle at the sound of her name.

Right. These are not solely my chambers anymore.

Turning her body around to lean against the door, Magdalena spots the culprit sitting in soapy waters with a tired smile on his face.

“Who said that you could use my bath, your majesty?”

“My own conscious, once I realized that you had not escaped nearly as quickly as I did. You would not want your new husband to reek of politicians, would you?”

The empress quirks a brow, only for it to immediately lower in response to her eyes finding his bare… everything. With burning cheeks, she grasps her hands in front of her middle and makes a beeline for the vanity. She was exhausted when she entered the room, but now her heart cannot seem to stop hammering her ribcage.

It is just Luca. This is not your nightmares. He will be kind.

With shaky hands, Magdalena starts to take off her jewelry. She is almost regretful that she dismissed her handmaids, even if it is supposed to be her wedding night. This will take her an eternity.

The sounds of splashing water fill the room as her husband leaves his bath, causing her throat to tighten. He dresses painfully slow, the anticipation rising in Magdalena’s stomach until she cannot take it anymore and drops an earring.

Suddenly there is a hand to her left, offering her the pearl. When she looks back to the mirror, she finds Luca’s handsome face wearing a caring expression. “Need assistance?”

“…If you do not mind.”

“I will never mind,” he mutters, smiling as he starts to unclasp her necklace. “It gives me an excuse to be close to you, after all.”

Her whole body seems to retract into itself as his fingers brush the nape of her neck. Goosebumps form on her skin.

“We do not have to do anything tonight. In fact, I am fully prepared to not do anything for quite a long time,” Luca reassures his wife, placing a gentle kiss on her hair before moving away.

What? Magdalena asks herself. He… does not want to? She was surprisingly disappointed, regardless of her previous anxiety.

“Are you certain?”

Her husband chuckles, crossing his legs in the arm chair he found himself in. “Yes…? I thought you did not wish for us to advance so quickly.”

She purses her lips, turning away from the mirror so that she can look at her husband face-on. “I-It is not that I did not wish for us to advance… but it is expected of us. I am expected to bear a child now that I am married.”

Luca stares at Magdalena with his mouth slightly ajar, brows furrowing as if he is trying to decipher a code written on her face. “Surely you do not believe that we always have to do what is expected of us, Magdalena. Especially when it concerns our private affairs.” He stands slowly, his tunic shifting to reveal a chest his new wife is trying her hardest not to focus on. “Especially when we have already determined that this marriage was for us and not for them.”

“I understand, but—“

“No, you apparently do not,” Luca cuts her off, walking towards her with waves of concern radiating off of him. Taking both hands in his, he says, “We had our first kiss yesterday, Magdalena. And your nerves were unhinged the moment you saw me bathing. Did you think I would not notice?”

The empress gulps. She is unused to someone knowing her this well. Even her sister is not this good at picking her apart.

“I may be bold, but I am not that bold to assume you would want to lay with me after one day of being mine,” he jokes, a wet curl falling onto his forehead. “I will even sleep in my old room if you are not ready for my hairy legs in your bed.”

A laugh bubbles out of Magdalena, the tension releasing from her body as suddenly as it appeared. He is the only one that has gotten her to relax so easily in years, and she is sure that no one else will ever be able to achieve the same feat.

A few nights later, after days full of meeting with important people and drawing up official documents, after constant moments of catching the other staring across the room, after a vulnerable minute in the stairwell when they finally got alone and kissed like they had been deprived of air… Magdalena no longer had any fears left.

That is why Luca retired that night to find his new wife, clad in her nightgown, standing by their bed with a certain glint in her eye.

“Was my Empress waiting for me all this time?”

“No,” she said quietly. “Your wife was.”

#here's the one shot i promised!!!!!!!! #i think this should go under the story tag soooo #regal #ts4 story #one shot #TOTALLY sfw don't you worry #i'm not joking btw that may have sounded like sarcasm but i promise lol no spicy time here #i wrote this....................... years ago??? YEARS ago???????? #kind of crazy #in light of the fact we just saw maggie and luca have their babies a few years after they married #i felt it was important to note how our empress got over her fears of having to do the deed and bear an heir #(for those who are new... she was well aware how painful and often fatal birth can be. #she was afraid she would die while giving birth to a child from an arranged and loveless marriage as most people saw her only as a means #to get an heir for Volais. but she got to marry for love and in this one shot she realizes that Luca would never use her much less hurt her

PROLOGUE

TRANSCRIPT:

In a far corner of the world, there was a continent once torn apart by war and greed, fighting over old grudges and forgotten slights.

With time came new rulers, and against all odds, the neighboring empires built an alliance.

The unexpected love between an empress and an enemy prince brought on peace after decades of strife.

Together, they bravely fought for the future.

For themselves... and then for their children.

#progeny #ts4 story #back to regal NOW PROGENY Fridays? 🤔 not consistently but I think I might go back to the whole weekend posting thing #patting myself on the back for this one!!!!!!!!!!! #i would like to imagine maggie's expression is due to the fact she unexpectedly have triplets #luca is so proud of his wife..... so so proud #sure it's not realistic that the babies are left to their own devices IN DIAPERS but......... i struggled so hard to find a triplet pose #that fit what was in my head #even tried the realistic birthing mod 😔 i know it has one for the hospital but i don't think it has one for home births????? IDK #i wasn't going to spend any longer on that #so this is just a teaser for what's to come eventually!! going to show some moments of their childhood #hmm probably just one post #i've got a cute idea and we will see if i can execute it #and then! we will be on to the main story!!!!!!!! #WOOP WOOP #oh and i've got extras to post (^:!!!! but i won't get to that until next week i figure. i have a work trip D:

So bf and I just finished Regal and we both thought it was amazing!!! He spent the whole time just crushing on Maggie (but honestly, same 😍) and hating on Antoin up until the end 😂 Also "For us" literally brought tears to my eyes! We can't wait for Progeny!!!!

YAY i'm so glad you guys enjoyed it!!!! just in time too 👀 watch your dash tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!

yes maggie is very crushable and antoin.... not so much LOL he has a good side but he is horrible at showing it huh?? Anyway maggie and luca say "thank you for enjoying the story!! 🥰"
