Roselyn got in the bathtub John prepared for her, the water was so hot yet not too hot but enough to relax her. She stretched her legs, thanks to the soap the water turned off a pinky color and the floral petals came to the surface.

John smiled seeing her enjoying his surprise, "I am starting to get used to being spoiled." Roselyn stated as she glanced at John who was looking at her from afar.

"Walk closer!" Roselyn exclaimed, understanding that he planned to leave to go practice and leave her in the bath meantime, but she didn't seem to give up on her mission not to let him practice for the rest of the day as he promised during breakfast.

Hearing her he turned around and walked closer to Roselyn

"Get in!" Roselyn caught John's hand and pushed him closer to the bathtub. She insisted to convince John to get inside as well but he didn't seem willing to.

"Stop it!" John said chuckling, he scoffed as gave up and undressed, he walked into the bathroom as Roselyn crawled to make him some space.

"Finally some reserved rest instead of training all day," Roselyn said as she raised her eyebrow, John suffocated a giggle and he smiled.

"You're probably making up excuses and you only missed seeing me naked. I heard pregnant women have their hormones going crazy, I wonder if that may be your case too?" John inquired as he suffocated the imminent laugh from escaping from his lips.

Roselyn splashed the water to wet John who laughed as he covered himself with his arm.

"I knew that was the case, I don't blame you, dear wife. I am unresistible." John continued joking as he giggled.

Roselyn shook her head joining him in the laugh.

She took a deep breath when she got serious, "however, I had been thinking recently and I think it's weird that Sharon never tried to get in the middle or seek revenge over us."

She said as she stretched her legs and laid her head over the bath's wall.

"Maybe her alliance with the snakes is her plan to avenge us," John observed as he grabbed the soap and washed his arm.

"You stand no choice with a banshee as strong as her, I should take part in the battle," Roselyn observed. But John shook his head vigorously, he gazed up to her and knitted his eyebrows down.

"I won't let you take part in the battle Rose. It's too risky." John raised his voice slightly irritated.

"Alright, but please be careful. And remember she is able to make you see things." Roselyn recommended him as he nodded.

"Turn around I can help you wash your back," John said.

Roselyn smiled, she turned around. "Who is the one with crazy hormones now?" She inquired and they both laughed.

John squeezed the sponge and then dipped it in water. He massaged it over Roselyn's back gently, her skin was so delicate and pale that only brushing the sponge down her back gave her a red mark.

John stopped to wash her back as he kissed the red mark, she felt a shiver ran through her spine when his lips touched her wettened skin.

Roselyn turned around and locked her lips with his as she pushed him against the surface of the bath.

"As soon as the battle will be over and our baby will be born we will go to see the sea together," John whispered closer to her lips before he kissed her once again.

"I can't wait, Rose."

Roselyn smiled as she leaned closer to him and wrapped her arms around his neck, her hair dipped in the water and peacefully floated around her shoulders.

"Me either, I barely can believe I will have a family with someone I deeply love," Roselyn commented, she ran her fingers through his hair as she looked at him in the eyes.

A knock make both of them turn around, Roselyn grabbed a towel and covered herself as she stood up to get her bathroom on.

"Com..." John started to say the maid to walk in when Roselyn threw him a towel which hit his face right before he caught it.

She glowered at him, "get dressed before you allow the maid to walk in." Roselyn scolded him.

He giggled as he stood up and wore his bathrobe as well.

"You're so cute when you're jealous." He murmured as he fixed his bathrobe and then screamed to the maid to walk in.

The maid walked in with her head bowed down, "Jack is here." She said while Roselyn had her eyes set on her to monitor and what she was looking at. The maid turned around and rushed to get out closing the door as fast as she could.

John exploded into a laugh, "you scared them a lot that day." he commented, Roselyn rolled her eyes, she headed him his clothes to indulge him to dress up quicker, she hated the idea of a maid seeing him undressed even if she had a good relationship with them now.

After they both got dressed up they finally walked out of the bathroom, despite Jack hadn't seen John in a while he didn't seem happy to see him, it was more like something was haunting him. Indeed, John could recognize that gaze very well. It was the gaze Ethan usually had when he wanted to tell John bad news.

John took a deep breath preparing himself mentally for a potential bad news.

"John..." Jake's voice was lower than the usual almost like he was so sorry that he had to force his voice to come out from his mouth.

John got even more worried, "why are you here?" he asked.

Jake sighed as massaged his forehead, his hands were shaky and he seemed confused about whether to tell what he knew to John or not.

He took another long breath as he walked closer to John.

"I have to tell you a bad new...." Jake said
