Britt took a deep breath as she changed out of her wet clothes and went down to the throne room. She was glad that things were just working out the way she wanted. She hoped that everything would stay the way they were but with Syria being a problem to come she didn't want to deal with it.

As she walked in the room, she saw the advisor was leaving the room. Her husband seemed to be in thought. Seeing he was in thought Britt cleared her throat and that got his attention. He walked over to her and hugged her.

"My Queen, what color is your cloak?" Atem asked

"Why?" Britt asked

"there is a woman, wearing a cloak helping villagers. You wouldn't know anything about that?" Atem asked

"A woman helping villagers? Sounds like something I used to do." Britt said

"So are you the woman sneaking around the village, my Queen?" Atem asked

Britt didn't answer his question with knowing she had to be careful with everything he said. If she admitted would be he be angry? Would he say it was dangerous? She had to worry about so much already and the fake Nile Princess they sent out to cover for her. Before she could answer Atem pulled her in a kiss, one that she couldn't resist and she held on to him. When he pulled away he looked at her.

"Please tell me, my Queen." Atem said

"I-.." Britt hesitated "I'm the one helping the villagers."

Atem just held her and led her to the throne as he sat down and pulled her on his lap. Britt wasn't sure what to say at the moment. She knew that it wasn't always good that she had not told him but his understanding was more than she thought she deserved at the moment. Still she relaxed as she closed her eyes and smiled in his hold.

Eris and Darius were walking around looking for their cousin when they came across the throne room. Darius saw that the Pharaoh had his Queen in his arms on the throne and Britt seemed to be very content with her

Britt could sense someone was watching them and she opened her eyes looking around. Atem noticed this and looked at her with a hint of worry in his eyes. She didn't see them but she could sense them. It didn't help that things were so complicated at the moment with her.

"What is it my Queen?" Atem asked

"Someone is watching." Britt said

Eris and Darius made themselves known and Britt relaxed seeing it was just her cousins. She was glad it wasn't Lisa or someone else. She was more on the paranoid side of things when this was going to be very dangerous. Still She was glad family paid respects. Atem noticed how tense she was and decided on a gathering of royals.

"While your cousins are here we're going to have a ball so the children can get used to the surrounding areas and make friends with the other rulers children." Atem said

"I support that idea my love." Britt said

"I agree Pharaoh, sounds like a marvelous idea." Eris said

I can't believe they're still going to be here a while. Britt thought
