"yes! i waited!" now pharaoh did not care who heard his rich voice raised. "i would not force you, satsu. but yes — i know this day would come," he hissed, the lazuli of his eyes hardened as the inside of a tomb. 
"you are still my queen. you will be queen of akashingo whether or not you bear children." it was their agreement. satsu flung the scroll of it into his face and she was correct.
his heart beat fast. pharaoh was unused to feeling in this way.
"but i will not forgo heirs. akashingo must have them, if you wish to stay queen, with your servants, your rooms, your guards." if she wished to have power.
ramesses pulled forward. "i will take concubines. they will do this for me, and you will remain pristine. untouched. the only one at my side."
was this what she wanted? it was not his wish. but then his desire could not outweigh her own.
