"I want you to just make sure Khalil eats and that the doctors are properly caring for him. I'll have them st up a bed for you here, in his room. "It's for you proection as much as his." He tried to explain.

"O---okay..." he murmured, shuffling inside.

Zadkael reached out to catch his arm, tugging him back out the door and into his chest. He looked down at him, frowning, before tippng a face up. He kissed his brow, much the same as he had to Khalil, before running a hand down his stomach.
"Your clothing seems tighter, Raimi..." He murmured thoughtfully, raising his brow to the concubine.

His face turned red and he looked away ashamed. "I---I'm sorry....Majesty....I---I'll try harder..."
He wanted to cry...
Concubines were thrown out for something like this...
He'd be cast aside... Unwanted... It was true he was getting fat... But...to have the King notice...
He'd never want to see him again...

"Hush.." He tapped his lips, smiling a bit. "It's fine. You were tiny when I first took you. Don't look so frightened. Go, watch over Khalil." He released him after another gentle kiss, this time to the corner of his mouth.
Zadkael made sure he was in the room before turning, going to seek out a doctor. "There is another concubine in the room with Khalil. Would you please check him out, also? He was invoved in the attack, I want to be sure he too wasn't harmed. Have me called if you find anything." He asked, before leaving the infirmary altogether.

The Doctor bowed deep and waited for the King to leave before heading in to do what he was told...

Zadkael saw to it that the head servant was informed on the three concubines, before retiring to his room. It wasn't yet night, but he was tired, and wondering. He needed rest before dinner, and perhaps the doctor would have news for him..

And the King was right. A servant interrupted him in his walk to the dinning hall, bowed low. "Majesty, the Doctor sent word..."

"Thank you. Pleas inform the that I will be to dinner in a moment." H sent him along before moving to the infirmary. It was not at all hard to track the doctor he'd spoken too. He was waiting..
"You've sent for me? What have you found?" He asked.

"Majesty." he bowed. "We have put the Concubine on bed rest as well..."

Instantly he was alert, his brow furrowing in worry. Had Raimi been hurt in the attack?
"What happened? Was he struck with the knife?" He demanded. Perhaps Raimi had covered it up. Stupd...was he hurt that entire time?

"No....thankfully. Majesty, he is at least 3 weeks along in his pregnancy."

Zadkael tensed, hardly daring to believe he'd even heard..."Pregnancy?" He had to ask again, just to hear it. "You are sure? Completely?" There was a slight lilt to his voice, not quite excited but..proud. Happy...

He nodded, "Yes, Majesty. We have also informed your Advisers."

"Thank you. You may rest tonight, you've done more than your share. I will have someone else stay to watch them." He nodded and turned to go, seeking out Raimi's room so he could speak to him.
He found him in the same room as Khalil, in his own bed, made completely comfortable. He was still awake even if Khalil was resting, and Zadkael closed the door softly.
"Raimi....say laying down. Did the doctor speak to you?" He asked.
