"Now that everything is settled down, we will go back," Lucifer said the next morning, after they came back from the Magic plane.
Darius who is mulling over what Max told him earlier, didn't respond immediately.
Lucifer and Lucian exchanged confused glances, with the lack of response from Darius.
"What are you thinking?" Lucian asked his brother in law.
Darius sighed and looked over at the two Lords and his friends sitting opposite to him in his study.
Yesterday, immediately after they returned, the pack doctor checked Thea and confirmed the good news. Thea is pregnant with their baby.
Unlike humans, the shifter pregnancies last only 5 months. Thea is already 1 month into her pregnancy and she will start showing soon.
But the happiness of being a father is overshadowed by the cautious message given by Max. Max also mentioned that the baby is a boy.
This means, despite being in danger, his son will be born into this world.
Thea looked at the car driving away in confusion.'What are they up to?' She thought suspiciously.Nonetheless, she followed the instructions given by Max and walked forward following the lights decorated onto the tree branches, on either side, creating a nice walkway.After walking for a couple of minutes, she saw a huge clearing with a big white tent and lots of colorful lights. In the middle of the tent stood Darius, with his back facing her in what seems to be a fancy tux.Darius is waiting for Thea. He knows in his heart that she belongs to him and she will say yes after he proposed. He wants to give her everything she ever dreamed of. This human engagement and wedding one of them.When Darius is busy with his thoughts, he heard faint footsteps approaching. Soon, her delectable scent followed.When he is sure that she is only a few feet away, he clapped his hands and all the lights were switched off, except the ones on the stage which highlig
Amber looked at Lucifer with surprise. She looked into his eyes to confirm that it's not a joke. Lucifer looks sincere and waiting for her answer."You are serious" Amber stated in a daze."Of course I am" Lucifer confirmed, looking at her as if she is stupid.Amber likes him a lot. She never thought about naming her feeling for him. But now that he asked, do I love him? Do I want to marry him?He was with her since before she shifted. He was there for her when she thought she was just a human. He was there with her, supporting her in every way.Never once he let her feel insufficient or beneath him."I like you. But I don't know if I want to marry you" she said truthfully.Lucifer looked at her and shook his head."I will make you mine Amber. You take your time. But nothing will change" Lucifer promised leading her back to the festivities.Darius and Thea noticed Amber and Lucifer walking hand in hand and smiled."Lo
Ophelia decided to bite the bullet and let him know what is bothering her. She knows he might laugh at her, but it's better than being heartbroken. If she reveals everything, then he might decide that she is not worth the trouble and let her be. With that thought in mind, she decided to tell him everything."No there is nothing wrong with you. You don't lack female attention. You would get any woman you want. I am scared that, if I get too attached to you, then it would be difficult for me to move on after you leave me. You are a master Vampire and I am a normal shifter. There is nothing fancy about me. I am just plain and simple. I don't have anything in me to hold your attention for more than a few days. I am protecting myself. This is just self-presentation" there she said it all. Now the ball is in his court. He will decide what his next move will be, Ophelia thought sadly.She will miss him chasing after her after this. But it cannot be changed. It's better for ever
After an eventful engagement party, everyone is in good spirits the next morning."I will take you to your wedding dress shopping," Darius said making Thea squeal with excitement.Darius laughed at her childlike excitement."Can we take my friends as well?" Thea asked hopefully."Sure, I will let Lucian and Lucifer know as well" he agreed easily."You are the best" Thea hugged and kissed him on his cheek.Immediately after their breakfast, they left for dress shopping. Upon reaching the boutique, an elderly looking sales lady welcomed them into the store."Welcome my King and queen. It's an honor to serve you" the lady bowed revealing to Thea, that she is a shifter as well.The lady greeted them politely. They were all seated and the lady showed them several wedding dresses.They were so busy looking over the dresses, none of them noticed David Brooks standing outside the shop and looking
Upon the instructions from their King, the shapeshift, who owns a prestigious cake shop in the center of the city, hurried his employees to prepare an assortment of various cake flavors and ideas for their wedding."Emma, hurry up. It's an honor to be called by our King, Quick" the owner Roland said wiping the precipitation from his forehead. He is nervous about the fact that he had to stand in front of his king in a few minutes."Mr. Roland, everything is done. Please relax" his employee, who is working with him for more than 15 years, and is also a human assured her boss."It's just that, I never had the honor of meeting his highness in my life. I am excited and nervous" Roland chuckled at Emma."Haha, don't worry boss, you will be fine," Emma said with a wink.Roland laughed despite being stressed a little.The cake shop is so huge that it employees more than a dozen workers. There are four chefs and 8 assistant chefs who work in the kitchen. T
Max stood in front of the lab for 2 hours for the test results of the cake sample. Finally, the lab technician came out of the lab with the reports.Max stepped forwards to take the outstretched cover of the reports."What was there inside that cake?" Max asked with a crease between his eyebrows."There was a kind of a drug, the likes of which I never saw before. But upon investigation, we found out that, it's a drug used to abort pregnancy. It's very dangerous for the pregnant woman" the technician revealed everything they found out about the drug mixed inside that cake.Max was stunned and relieved at the same time. He is stunned that, none of them detected the danger that they invited inside the pack themselves.He is relieved because, his father, the Lord above, protected the baby and blessed them."What about the mother? Would the drug harm the mother as well?" Max inquired further."No, it might cause some pain for the mother, b
David observed everyone coming in and out of the royal pack. His eyes caught a human maid who came out to pick up groceries. He followed the maid and waited for her outside the grocery store.When Maid Lily, came out with her hands full of groceries, David tripped her with his magic. All the groceries in Lily's hands went tumbling down on to the ground.The guard who accompanied Lily noticed this and came towards her to pick up the grocery from the ground."I don't know know how I tripped" Lily looked flustered and embarrassed."It's ok. Are you hurt" the guard asked the human maid.The guard is a wolf shifter and much older than Lily."No, I am fine" Lily replied hurriedly.David added a magic apple to their grocery bag. None of the two noticed this, as they were busy picking the content from the ground.'Whoever eats this apple will be under my control. I need someone inside there, to act as my spy' David thought and slipped away unn
Lady Tina arrived at the request made by King Darius and the Lords.They all sat in the living area of the mansion to discuss the possibility of catching David."He will not show himself unless it's necessary. Unless he comes out of hiding, we won't be able to catch him" Lady Tina explained.She is the one who knows most about David. He is as slippery as a fish. He is cunning and very good at disguising himself.He is also relentless. She remembered the days when he pursued her with single-minded determination. Lady Tina had no other choice but to fall for his charm."But it's dangerous for Thea if we let him roam freely. He already attempted to kill the baby today and even tried to bring someone under his control with that magic Apple" Darius pointed out.If it's not for Max, Thea would have tasted that poisoned cake. Darius became very furious when he remembered the situation. Thea and the baby were too close to danger. Which is a ve
