Ben and Lizzie had the most perfect fairytale wedding they could have imagined. Afterwards, they went on a honeymoon to an island just off the coast of Corona. There they went on horseback rides every morning and then would picnic for lunch. Then just before the sunset, Ben would take Lizzie on mashua rides. The honeymoon was perfect and Lizzie was sad when it ended a week later. However the two had royal duties to attend to. Everyone loved to see the beloved couple at events. They attend ribbon cuttings, charity balls, speeches in the town square wewe name it. Being a princess in Corona was zaidi work than Lizzie would have ever gotten as Queen of Bayern. She knew she was lucky to be in Corona, in a town with such loving people and the one she loved but the pressures were getting to her. One night they returned from a charity function and Lizzie had had enough. She slammed the door as they walked into the bedroom.
"If I go to another function I think I might behead myself!" Lizzie walked over to the vanity and took off her crown. "I mean honestly, Ben, I'm not even good at any of this," she sighed. It's just so frusturating..."
"You'll get the hang of it," Ben replied as he walked over to his own vanity and started to get ready for bed. "At first I couldn't do it either. But you're good with people, Lizzie. wewe just don't see it yet."
Lizzie started to take off the mkufu Ben had aliyopewa her when they were engaged. "You really think so?"
Ben walked over and helped his wife take off her necklace. "I know so," he replied and then he passionately kissed her.


The inayofuata day, the prince and princess had their coronation and were king and queen. Lizzie felt nervous again but when she did get nervous she just reached out for Ben's hand and knew everything was going to be all right. Lizzie enjoyed being Queen zaidi than she enjoyed being a princess. She still had to go to events (which had become less tedious once she learned to have fun at them) but she felt like she had a zaidi important role in the kingdom. Each morning Ben, herself, and a handful of royal advisers would meet on the palace patio and talked about official matters. Lizzie was working very hard at her new job and for just once in her life, she felt as if she was important.


For the past few weeks, Lizzie couldn't help feeling anything but sick all the time. Her siku started kwa throwing up in the morning and usually ended when she smelled samaki at chajio, chakula cha jioni and threw up again. Ben was really starting to feel worried for her.
"Lizzie, wewe should really visit the physician." Ben alisema to Lizzie one morning. "You haven't been feeling well for over a month."
"I'm fine, really," Lizzie hated playing the damsel in distress card.
"Lizzie," Ben gave her a stern look and then softened. "Do it for me?"
Looking up at him in defeat, she agreed. She walked down the hallway to the physicians chamber, muttering the whole way there how she wasn't sick. And it turned out she was right.
"Queen Elizabeth," the physician gasped. "I believe you're with child!" Lizzie was shocked. She and Ben hadn't... wewe know, since the night before the coronation.
"You're about a mwezi along. Congratulations!" He told her. "Now their will be some things we will have to attend to. wewe just come down tomorrow and we'll talk about it okay?" Lizzie nodded numbly and then walked out of the room. Her? A mother? Lizzie always knew that Ben would be a great father but she was worried about how she would do as a mother. She made a promise to herself that moment that she would be a better mother to this baby than her mother ever was to her. Lizzie walked out onto the patio and saw that Ben and the other royal advisers had already eaten breakfast but Cornelia still remained.
"Oh, Lizzie!" she exclaimed. "You know how I told wewe about James?" How could Lizzie forget. James was one of the royal advisers and over the past few months, he and Cornelia had grown very close. Cornelia held out her hand and screamed. On her finger was a beautiful diamond with many delicately small pearls surrounding it.
"Cornelia!" Lizzie exclaimed. "I'm so happy for you!" She embraced her friend and then looked at the beautiful ring. Cornelia then told Lizzie how James had proposed.
"Oh Cornelia, that's wonderful," Lizzie said. "But I have news for wewe too."
