"Nothing is more important to me than you. If not for your stubbornness, I would have made you sit back at home and rest. So make sure you never leave my side." Markus said in a serious voice.
"Hmmm. Don't worry. I am more loyal than your shadow." Kizy said with a smile, trying to lighten Markus's mood.
"As if I am believing that. Let's see what happens once you are out in the open." Markus said, knowing full well that nobody could keep his beloved wife bound, not even he himself.
With that the journey began.
Markus, Kizy and Joel had taken the land route with one group. Victor, Andrew and Nicole were in the second group, leading the sea route. While lastly Jason, Rose and Harry were with the third group, taking airway.
Of course Markus's group was moving the slowest. Plus due to Markus's strict warning, their vehicles were made to stop at regular intervals of two to three hours so that Kizy could come out of the car and take small walks in between.
And no matter how much Kizy insisted, Markus was hellbent on not giving in. By the third time, which was only one hour away from the point where they were supposed to board the plane, Kizy was dead frustrated.
She felt too embarrassed to let the entire troupe wait for her while she was made to walk thirty to fifty steps before getting inside the car.
"Markus, did you planned on torturing me this way just cause I was stubborn for joining you in this battle!!" Kizy exclaimed out of annoyance.
"Of course not sweetheart. All this I am doing is for you and the baby. Doctors said that long travels can cause vascular diseases of legs in pregnancy." Markus explained calmly.
"Don't tell me about that. Also that disease is called DVT. Nothing will happen-" Kizy was still speaking when she suddenly realized something.
Her eyes went wide before she covered her mouth and instantly went to the other side of the road.
"Kizy-" Markus called while following behind her when suddenly Kizy bent and started vomiting.
Markus instantly held her head and rubbed her back while his own forehead was covered in cold sweat from fear.
Finally after a minute or two, Kizy stood up straight, though she didn't vomit much content.
Markus signalled one of the men who instantly came ahead with a bottle of water.
Markus opened the cap with full speed before passing the open bottle to Kizy.
"Here." He said.
Kizy took a few sips, rinsing her mouth before gulping more sips of water, her chest heaving up and down.
"Let's abort the mission." Kizy was still drinking water when she heard Markus say this, making her choke on water.
Kizy turned back to look at those men, who were professionally standing there without any expression, even when their boss was about to abort this super mission.
"Slowly." Markus said, rubbing her back while his entire face was screaming worry.
"Markus, I am fine." Kizy said, trying to normalise him.
"No you are not!" Markus exclaimed.
"This is completely normal during pregnancy. Pregnant women can feel nauseous and can even vomit. But it's no big deal." Kizy said while holding Markus's hand, hoping he would cool down.ραпdα `n?ν?| сom
"No. Vomiting during pregnancy can cause severe complications like dehydration and electrolyte imbalance and you might even need to get hospitalised. I have read it all." Markus said, not calming down in the least.
'God! Out of all the things present on internet, why did he have to read such stupid things?!' Kizy thought in her mind before taking deep breaths.
"Look Markus, not everyone ends up with dehydration and hospitalization. Only severe cases need that. Mild nausea and vomiting is common in pregnancy, nothing serious. If you want, call the doctors." Kizy said, her patience running out.
Yes, Markus' team included a team of doctors as well. Though they were not just doctors but trained fighters. And not just Markus's group, but the rest two groups had the same.
Just that Markus's team had a group of doctors while the rest two had three doctors each for emergencies.
And Markus instantly called those doctors, making them check her vitals, and hoping that Kizy would understand his feelings.
After two minutes, doctors declared that Kizy was normal with a slightly raised pulse which was completely normal after vomiting.
"Are you sure?" Markus asked the doctors with a murderous glare.
"Yes boss. Nothing to worry about. Plus the lady boss had already taken medication so we can relax. If she continues to feel nauseous or vomits then we can increase the dosage as we only gave her a precautionary dose." The doctor replied while praying for his own life as Markus's body language didn't seem right to him, if anything it screamed murder.
"See. Happy now? Let's resume the journey, we are already the slowest of all three. Let's not delay anymore." Kizy said before going towards the car and leaving a helpless Markus behind.
Markus just took a deep breath before shrugging and entering the car, hoping that nothing more would happen to Kizy.
Finally after an hour, they reached their last stop before they were supposed to board the plane.
Though originally they had planned to take the sea route, Markus declared that it wasn't good for his pregnant wife and ended up with planes.
"If you feel even slight discomfort, let me know." Markus said once they were inside.
"I just feel a little sleepy." Kizy said, feeling exhausted.
"You should lie down properly on the bed. Let me help you till there." Markus said as he was about to get up.
"No, I am good. Just stay with me. I can sleep like this." Kizy said while intertwining her fingers with Markus's before resting her head on his shoulder.
Markus just smiled at her before kissing her forehead, rubbing her head to let her sleep peacefully.
*PALACE ROOM, IMPERIAL NATION*
A man came running to the room in full speed before stopping at the door and knocking lightly, catching his own breath.
"Come in." A voice ordered from inside, a voice that sent shivers down his spine.

Drink water and stay hydrated!
