Surprised?

nfrtary, aistiqaz habi. (Nefertari, wake up my love)

Harry felt the bed dip and a kiss on his forehead, he hums under his breath refusing to wake up.

The Pharaoh climbed onto the bed and lay beside him. He watched as Harry breathe softly with his mouth slightly open and small snores escaping his pink lips.

He ran his hand through Harry's curly hair with a proud smile on his face. 'ant jamilat jiddaan. (You are so beautiful) He whispered.

uedik, sayakun ladayk habia al'abdy, baed 'iijra' mithl hadhih altadhiat aleazimat litakun maey. (I promise, you will have my everlasting love after making such a great sacrifice to be with me)

He cuddled Harry's into his arms and Harry unconsciously snuggled closer to his chest. The Pharaoh chuckled softly and placed a kiss on his forehead.

astayqiz habi. (Wake up, my love) He whispered into Harry's ear.

"Umm" Harry hums again and fell back to sleep.

The Pharaoh tilted Harry's head and kissed his lips softly, then started kissing his neck gently, making him to moan in his sleep.

Harry slowly cracked his eyes open and yawned lightly, then closed his eyes again, murmuring "I want to sleep for a while"

zahrih almadi. ealayk 'an takul. (It's past noon. You have to eat) The Pharaoh whispered against his neck.

Harry opened his eyes with a slight frown "Noon?" he whispered and the Pharaoh nodded looking into his green eyes.

kunt nayimaan allaylat almadiat eindama kunna natahadath ean tuqus alhaml , thuma rakalatni 'amiun baed 'an wadeatak fi alsarir. (You fell asleep last night when we were talking about the pregnancy rituals, then my mother kicked me out after I put you to bed)

awdahat 'anaha la turiduni 'an 'anam bijawarik.(She made it clear that she didn't want me sleeping next to you)

Harry chuckled softly and quickly placed his hand over his mouth "Sorry morning breath"

hal kunt 'ashtki min 'anfasik alsabahiat eindama kunt 'aqbaluk 'aw eindama kan ladayk dyki fi famk sabah 'ams? (Was I complaining about your morning breath when I was kissing you or when you had my cock in your mouth yesterday morning?) The Pharaoh asked, while smirking.

Harry blushed and buried his face in the Pharaoh's chest, groaning loudly. "Ramese Zayn stop with the sexual talk, it's making me horny and we can't make love in the afternoon?"

limadha la najeal alhaba fi fatrat ma baed alzuhr? (Why can't we make love in the afternoon?) The Pharaoh asked while chuckling.

"I prefer the morning, it's a beautiful way to start the day"

jaeal alhaba fi fatrat ma baed alzuhr mumataeat lilghayati. (Making love in the afternoon is very enjoyable)

Harry peeked from his chest "Really?" He mumbled.

The Pharaoh licked his lower lip, staring at Harry's month. atamanaa 'an 'atamakan min jaelik taearaq min aljins baed zuhr har mushabie bialbukhar. (I wish I could make you sweat from a hot steamy afternoon sex)

lkn walidati satazhar min la makan wataetini kurat zurqa' mithlama faealt bial'ams. (But my mother will appear from no where and give me blue balls like she did yesterday) He sighed.

Harry nodded and hid his face in the Pharaoh's chest again "She is a big meanie to our sexual needs" He whines.

The Pharaoh chuckled loudly la taraa dhlk bihadhih altariqat ya habibiti. (She doesn't see it that way, my love)

bitariqat 'afhimiha , la yjb 'an 'uwkidak. (In a way I understand her, I shouldn't be stressing you out)

Harry yawn loudly and closed his eyes again "If you want me to eat then you have to carry me" He murmured.

The Pharaoh smiled and carried him to the dining table where the food was set. Just as he was about to sat Harry on the chair, Harry whined loudly and wrapped his arms around the Pharaoh's neck tightly.

"I want to sit on your lap, and please feed me" He pouted.

The Pharaoh sighed and sat on the chair with Harry cradled against him, like a child.

sawf takhudh alfawakuh altaazijat awla 'aw alkaeak almuhalaa bialeasl thuma shurb shay alznjbyl lighuthyanik. (Will you take the fresh fruits first or the honey-sweetened cakes then drink the ginger tea for your nausea)

"I want the honey cake first"

The Queen entered the room with a grin on her face astatie 'an 'araa 'anak 'ukhidhat nasihatay. (I can see you took my advice) She said as she sat opposite them.

Harry nodded and giggled lightly.

'ay nsih?(What advice?) The Pharaoh asked with a raise eyebrow while feeding Harry the honey cake.

akhbaratha 'anaha yjb 'an tustaghala hadhih alfursat limaslahatiha almuatiat. (I told her she should use this opportunity for her favourable benefits)

taqsid 'akhbaratuha 'an tastafid min hamalaha litadabiyni? (You mean you told her to take advantage of her pregnancy to boss me around?) The Pharaoh asked.

"I deserve to be spoiled" Harry mumbled, while chewing on the cake.

ana abnak , la yjb 'an tasheur bial'asaf min 'ajli. (I'm your son, shouldn't you be feeling sorry for me) The Pharaoh stared at his mother with a unbelievable expression.

aerif kayf tasheur bialhaml , fawayid nfrtary almuatiat , la shay' mqarnt bial'ijhad aldhy satashear bih ltset 'ashhur. (I know how it feels to be pregnant, Nefertari favourable benefits, is nothing compared to the stress she will be feeling for nine months) The Queen responded.

ant mhzuz 'anaha tasir elyk. kan yjb 'an taraa ma faealtuh li'abik.(You are lucky she is going easy on you. You should have seen what I did to your father)

la tueti 'afkaruha al'um (Don't give her ideas mother)

hsnana , lakunani qad 'afalat (Okay, but I might slip up) She said with a smirk on her face and the Pharaoh rolled his eyes.

balmnasbt aljiniral , 'ursil ahd alhurras li'iiblaghik ean alaijtimae. (By the way the General, sent one of the gaurds to inform you about the meeting) The Queen said.

Harry tighten his arms around the Pharaoh's neck and began whining "Please don't go, she is trying to cock block us again" Harry whispered in the Pharaoh's ears.

yjb 'an 'adhhab habiya , 'ueadik allaylat 'anaha ln tafeal dhlk. (I have to go my love, I promise tonight she won't) Harry nodded as the Pharaoh murmured into his ear.

The Pharaoh stood up and sat Harry on the chair. He kneeled beside him and placed butterfly kisses all over his stomach, then pecked his lips

sawf 'arak eindama 'aeud , hasna? (I will see you when I get back, okay?)

Harry nodded with a faint blush on his cheeks and gazed after the Pharaoh till he was out of sight. He averted his eyes to the Queen who was giving him a serious look.

ldhlk 'ana alan manie aldyk? (So I'm now a cock blocker?) She asked with her arms folded on her chest.

"No, Ramese Zayn was the one who called you a cock blocker, not me" He smiled innocently.

The Queen chuckled lightly and shook her head. khamin ma? (Guess what?) She asked.

Harry raised his eyebrow "You are going to stop cockblocking your son and I?"

la ln 'afeal dhlk , lkn aleashiqat aleamat turid altahaduth 'iilayk fi almasa'. (No I won't, but the General mistress wants to speak to you in the evening)

"Oh" Harry frowned slightly. "What does she want?"

waqalat 'iinaha turid 'an taetadhir ean albarh. (She said she wants to apologise for yesterday)

"Okay" He murmured.

madha hadath baynakuma? (What happened between you two?) The Queen gaze at him with a serious look.

"Nothing"

hal 'ant wathqa?" (Are you sure?) The Queen asked.

"It's just a little misunderstanding, nothing serious"

hsnana , walakun 'iidha qalat 'ayu shay' li'iizeajik , falraja' 'iikhbari bidhalik. (Okay, but if she says anything to upset you, please tell me)

"I will" Harry gave her an assuring smile.

Later in the evening..

He felt uneasy sitting close to the blonde haired girl in front of him. His green eyes meet her blue eyes and they both gave each other a smile but non of them spoke.

He averted his attention to the tea cup he was holding and kept asking himself why he was feeling this way towards his best friend.

This is someone he has known his whole life.

Someone he trust, someone he has shared his deepest secrets with, so why is he feeling this strange vibe from Niall?

Why didn't he feel it yesterday?

Why is his heart savagely fluttering for no apparent reason?

He took a sip of his ginger tea and placed the cup on the table stand beside the couch.

"Why are you behaving as if we are strangers?" Niall asked and Harry looked up at him.

"I don't know, I just...I don't feel well" He responded.

"It probably stress, its common during pregnancy" Niall replied but Harry kept quiet.

Niall sighed loudly "I'm sorry for what I said yesterday"

"You crossed the line" Harry replied in an icy tone.

"I know, I was wrong for suggesting the termination of your pregnancy"

"Its just, I sacrificed my physical body to come here and save you. And when you refused to come with me, I got frustrated and said things I shouldn't have"

Harry brows frowned, "Sacrificed your body?"

Niall nodded, "When you disappeared I blamed myself and remember Kwame? The guy I was talking about yesterday?"

Harry nodded with a confused look.

"He practice black magic. I pleaded with him to help me bring get you back. But for me to cross over here, I had to sacrifice my physical body"

"This female body you are seeing right now is like my soul or whatever this is, but my actual body is lying lifeless in Kwame's basement"

Harry's eyes widened with shock "It means your are dead at the other side?" He asked and Niall nodded.

"Niall you shouldn't have to do that!" Harry whispered yelled.

"But I did. You are my best friend Harry, and I will do anything for you"

"You've helped me in so many ways, I couldn't let you just disappear and let your father suffer" Niall exclaimed as tears trickle down his face.

"I will not be able to live with myself when I know, there was something I could have done"

"Kwame was my only ticket to save you and I didn't care about the price I had to pay, all what matters is you"

Harry palmed his face as tears rolls down his cheeks "Niall this is.... Oh my God, I'm speechless"

Harry moved from his side of the couch and sat closer to Niall's side before hugging him.

"I love you Harry" Niall said as tears trickle down his face.

"I love you too" Harry responded.

After few minutes of crying and whispering comforting words to each other, they let go and wiped their tears.

"You sacrificed your body to save me and I ended up getting angry with you" Harry whispered.

"I'm so sorry Niall, but it's too late to save me"

"Ramese Zayn and I are madly and deeply in love with each other"

"Maybe if you had come earlier, I would have gone with you without a heart beat, but now I can't."

Harry look down at his hands and breath deeply.

"I was here weeks ago but I couldn't get access to you. I had to work my way up" Niall mumbled.

"Work your way up?" Harry asked his eyes meeting Niall's gaze.

"I had to sleep with the General" Niall responded.

"In order for me to get closer to you I had to use my body to please the General, when he liked the sex he let me become his mistress"

"Oh" Harry muttered under his breath. "He took your virginity?"

Niall nodded and Harry notice the faint blush in Niall's cheeks.

"Do you have feelings for the General? He asked.

"No-no I don't.. I only slept with him because its the only way to get closer to you"

"You hesitated before answering" Harry raised his eyebrow. "You like him"

"No I don't" Niall gasped.

"Yes you do" Harry stared at him with a small smile on his face.

"No I don't"

"Yes you do"

"Okay fine, he is hot and handsome and he has a body to die for. So I'm a little attracted to him. But I don't love him"

"But you like him" Harry said in a teasing tone

Niall groaned loudly and palmed his face. "Can we stop talking about the General?"

"Is he good in bed?" Harry blurted out.

Niall gasped loudly "Oh my God, Harry stop. We are not going there"

"Yes we are" Harry remove Niall's palms from his face and realized his best friend's face was red as a tomato.

"There is nothing wrong with us talking it. We are sleeping with the two most powerful men in Egypt. It's normal for us to talk about their skills in bed" Harry wiggled his eyebrows suggestively.

"So tell me" He insisted, giving Niall his unresistable puppy eyes.

"He is good, very good, oh my gosh I can't believe I said that" Niall blushed in embarrassment.

"And?" Harry said in a persistence tone.

"He takes his time with me, he gives me gentle kisses, and strokes my hair when we are lying in each other's arms"

"He kisses me on my forehead and cheek when he leaves in the morning for his duties"

"I think he loves you" Harry said.

"No he doesn't, why are you so interested in the General and I?" Niall asked.

"I was thinking if you like him then maybe you could stay here"

"We could stay here forever"

"You and the General"

"Ramese Zayn and I"

"We can go for double dates and live happily ever after"

"This is not a fairytale" Niall replied

"I have a family who are expecting me back home"

Harry nodded sadly "I thought maybe...... never mind"

"I'm sorry but I will be leaving tonight" Niall murmured.

Harry frowned "Why so soon? Please stay for a while" Harry pleaded.

"I can't, my time is running out"

"Look, why don't we make this moment special, let's forget about me leaving for a while and concentrate on the memories we will be making together this moment"

"So I'm never going to see you again?" Harry asked sadly but Niall ignore the question, instead he asked another question.

"So have you started working on the baby clothes?"

Harry nodded with a huge smile. "Do you want to see it"

"Yes of course"

Harry stood up and went to his bed to pick up the baby clothes his was working on. Meanwhile Niall had poured the liquid herb Istnofret Gigi had given to him earlier in the day into Harry's ginger tea.

Harry came back with a proud smile on his face when he showed Niall the clothes.

"They are so beautiful" Niall cooed.

"You think so?" Harry asked and Niall nodded. "The fabric feels different"

"It's made from linen" Naill answered.

"Linen is made from flax. Its a plant which was grown along the Nile. The flax is softened then separated into fibres which are beaten before being spun into thread and woven into cloth"

"Oh I didn't know" Harry mumbled.

"How would you know?" Niall chuckled lightly "You always sleep in history class"

Harry rolled his eyes "Don't blame me Mr Evans is boring"

"Hey won't you take your tea before it's get cold?" Niall asked with a tight smile.

"Oh yes, I totally forgot" Harry walked to the table and picked the tea cup and drank it down in one gulp. He frowned at the slight change of taste.

He shrugged and place the cup on the table and went to sit by Niall. They talked about Mr Evans and Kwame, Ahamed and Akshaya.

Harry laughed hard when Niall explain how Kwame and Mr Evans met. As they were talking Harry started feeling dizzy and his vision became blurry.

"I don't feel good" he whispered weakly

"It must pregnancy stress" Niall answered.

"Yeah, I think I should rest for a while" Harry stood up and groan in pain then he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen. He cried out and fell on the floor.

Niall's heart skipped a beat and quickly rushed to his side.

He cuddled Harry in his arms and started whispering to him "Shhh It's going to be okay, everything will be fine"

"It's hurts, it's hurts" Harry cried out, feeling so much pain in his abdomen.

Naill started panicking, Wasn't the herb suppose to make Harry numb and paralyzed? Why is Harry hurting and crying in pain?

Then he felt a warm liquid soaking his dress, he began trembling in fear and confusion, when he realized it was blood gushing out from Harry's backside.

Harry screamed from the intense pain in his abdomen as he felt the rush of blood gushing down his legs.

The scream so loud that it's attracted the attention of the guards in front of his chamber. They quickly bust into the room only to find the Harry in Niall's arms in a pool of blood.

Niall looked up at guards with terrified expression "I don't know what happened she just fell"

One of the guards quickly mumbled some words to three of his men and they quickly rushed out of the room.

"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry" Niall began sobbing when he realized what was happening.

He has been tricked.

Suddenly the Queen rushed into the room and screamed when she saw the scene in front of her. She quickly pulled Harry from Niall's arms onto her lap and began crying.

madha faealt laha!? (What did you do to her!?) She screamed loudly looking at Niall but Niall only stared at her while sobbing with his hands covered with Harry's blood "I didn't mean it" he muttered under his breath.

aistihabuha 'iilaa alzinzana! (Take her to the cell!) The Queen commanded and the guards dragged Niall out from the room.

alalihat min fadlik la tade hdha yahduth maratan 'ukhraa. (Gods please don't let this happen again) The Queen said through her cries.

Harry's face was pale and covered with beads of sweat, his eyes started rolling at the back of his head. His breathing becoming short.

Nefertari, The Pharaoh's voice sounded in the room and he rushed to his mother's side.

madha hdth? (What happened?) The Pharaoh yelled looking at his mother.

The queen couldn't form any words, only sobs of cries came out of her mouth.

Ramese Zayn took Harry into his arms habi , 'abaq maeia la tughliq eaynayk. (My love, stay with me don't close your eyes)

ayn almuealijuna? (Where are the healers?) The Pharaoh yelled at the guards.

hum taqribaan huna. (They are almost here)

The last thing Harry felt was a drop of the Pharaoh's tears falling on his forehead then he fall into total darkness.
