Chapter Text
Birth wasn't always the best choice for people.
Especially when your body isn't cut out for it.
The King and Hierarchy of his very own kingdom he made by hand, was currently grieving of his first lost baby.
His body isn't cut out for pregnancy, his mother told him "No matter what child comes out. You cannot bare a child with that pathetic body of yours", It was a curse, a harsh one indeed.
He wanted to have a baby, he seen how many people in his kingdom were happy with babies around them, they looked happier. So he wanted to try it.
But
It failed.
His mother was right.
It's a wicked curse.
A curse he hated so much.

Grox hadn't been feeling wonderful, not even the best. He just previously finished eating, and getting ready to start his day which was a bit too hard especially when he was feeling under the weather. He doesn't know why but he hopes it didn't lead with the night he and Froggy got.. Interesting. Or well a really fun night, Grox halted on brushing his teeth and smiled softly to himself, Froggy doesn't know that Grox has a huge liking at him, if he did. He would get used.
He held his breath, clutching the toothbrush which his hand was shaking but he took a breath. He needed to be calm, why? Because it's tax day! His all time favorite day of every month, he gets to collect taxes and spoil himself sometimes, not really because his life is absolutely boring as hell.
Once he was done getting himself ready, he walked outside of his private chambers and walked down the stairs, at the same time also demanding stuff during a journalist was taking down everything he demanded just to get him satisfied. When he was done, the villager left running to get the stuff done at the end of the day also with grox finally getting ready to open the gate doors, his bodyguards beside him on either side of himself.
"Aight bet! We re-" Grox halted for a bit, only to run to the nearest trash can and started puking in it. His bodyguards watched in shock and somewhat worry. Meanwhile Grox, he finished puking just to get hit by another wave of nausea, he couldn't bare it, he just couldn't so he slowly descended from the trash to the floor.
This felt familiar to him when-
"Someone get me a test. Please."
One of the bodyguards caught on when his lord asked that and nodded, running to a nearest room to get the test.
When he finally came back, the bodyguard gave the test to Grox, whom was grateful for it.
He ran into his private chambers, into his bathroom as he pissed- (Skip bc wtv)
Grox stared at the test. Two pink lines slowly fading in, and appearing. One visible and the other faint..
This cannot be happening.
He couldn't believe it. No, he couldn't. Is this a blessing? A curse??
Is he finally going to get a child he's been wanting for a while?
probably, but now. He has to act normal, and get those taxes and sleep.
___
A few months passed, the kingdom has been calm. No killing, population expanding, and people not feeling they were on constant watch. It felt relaxing to not just the guards, but the whole kingdom.
Grox, their royalty was in his private chambers with his doors protected by the outside from his bodyguards. After discovering that froggy was after him, he didn't want that. Especially the state he was in, he wanted to relax and sleep, be comfortable without any risks of him and his growing baby.
Especially when he was 8 months in, he wasn't in the state of fighting nor walking too much.
.
His eyes opened and scanned the room.
He felt a presence that wasn't supposed to be in his room.
He kept scanning and looking around until-
"Fro-"
"Shhhh!" Froggy rushed to him, covering his mouth with his hands. Grox stared at him and slapped his hands away from his mouth, cleaning it with his sleeve and laying back down in a relief.
"Why haven't you been out?" Froggy questioned, staring at the now somewhat sleepy Grox. Grox himself only hummed and shrugged "Not feeling it" "Fym not feeling it??" "Iunno"
"Fym Iunno???"
"Ouu shii"
"What."
"Man idk, you're in my room, what do you want from me?"
"Other than you, I want to know why you're not in your garden or anything!"
"How woul- HAVE YOU BEEN STALKING ME???" Grox sat up confused
"SHHHHH. And perhaps. Anyways." Froggy sighed, his eyes trailing down and stopped at his stomach before glancing at him.. "You're.. Pregnant?"
Grox stood quiet only to nod "Yeah, I've been pregnant"
"Who's child is it." He stood up, towering the wither, while also staring harshly at him.
The majesty looked around and huffed to himself. "It's yours."
"What."
"Did I stutter or do you have hearing issues??"
"WHat- NO???
