Chapter 54"Daddy, are you going to live with us from now on?"The steak knife I was holding was frozen in mid-air from Lumiere's question, and I had to look up to see him looking at his father enthusiastically. On the other hand, Alucard, sitting across from me, having Liutrich in his lap, smiled and fed our son."No, son. I am only here for a few days because your Mommy and I have to deal with some matters. Right, Mommy?"I narrowed my gaze at his question. "Yes." I tried not to sound bland, but I couldn't help it.Yes, Alucard stayed here in my mansion because of Azarius' mission for us. We agreed to disembark three days from now to fulfill our mission. It was why Alucard requested that he stay with us because he would miss our children.And who was I to say no when I knew our kids would be thrilled to know their father would stay here in the Bellwood estate for the first time?"Are you two going on a date again? That is why we are not coming with you, Daddy?" Liutrich was the next
Chapter 55I knew that I was not supposed to heed on Alucard's command, but here I was, my feet dragging me to the bathroom where he told me to go there. The anticipation was killing me as soon as I entered, and I swallowed my gasp when I closed the door and was attacked by the hungry kiss from Alucard. And I did not find myself complaining or getting out of his grasp. Instead, I kissed Alucard back with the same fervor he was bestowing to me. But he was more into me, sucking my tongue as if he wanted to pull out my soul from my body that I couldn't help but cling to his neck and wrap my legs around his torso.I felt him smiling under our hungry kisses as his hands supported my bottom and made my back lean against the wall. His tongue never failed to seek entrance inside my mouth, and I gladly fought him with dominance."Hmm..." A soft moan escaped from my mouth but Alucard broke our kisses and used his other hand to caress my cheek."Let's do it quietly, dollface," he whispered husk
Chapter 56Alucard and I went to see his brother after spending some time with our kids and bidding farewell so we could fulfill our assignment. Azarius smiled meaningfully as soon as we arrived. Then he looked up at me and Alucard, waiting for what he would say next. "How about the jewelry Alucard needed for his next diplomatic mission?""My artisans are still working on it. His Royal Highness has already looked at the work in progress." I glanced at Alucard and saw him nodding, agreeing with my words. Then, he looked at me and winked, making me want to throw knives in his direction.I almost rolled my eyes and returned my gaze to Azarius, who was looking amusingly at us. "It seems that the relationship between you two has been improving. Did something happen while Alucard was in your estate, Grand Duchess Bellwood?" The naughty smile on his lips meant that he knew what was happening between us.And I couldn't help but have chills down my spine, suddenly remembering that Alucard an
Chapter 57"If you would consider accepting me and my mate, please... I beg you. We have tried approaching every pack, but no one accepted us." Those were Alucard's dramatic words while he was holding my hand. I couldn't help but feel chills down my spine upon noticing his acting was too fucking good that I could almost have sympathy for him. And it was my time to act, to convince these pack warriors from the Crimson Sorrow pack that we should let us in and see their Alpha."Please..." I did my best to water my eyes, biting my lower lip. "We will do anything to be part of your pack... My husband and I..." I had to pause, hating to say that Alucard was my husband at that moment. "My mate and I will provide manpower to your pack..." This made me cry as I clung to Alucard's arm for support. "Please spare us... Please...!"To infiltrate this pack, we needed to be accepted as pack members. According to our intel, three leaders were running this pack, and they had been secretly building s
Chapter 58Alucard and I had gone through some initiation rights to be accepted in the Crimson Sorrow pack. The evaluation would take two weeks before Marcus could say his final word if we were welcome to his pack, or we would be banished.'I hope we get to finish this mission as soon as possible. Luciana, Lumiere, and Liutrich's birthday is approaching...' I couldn't help mind-linking Alucard as I paced back and forth, looking in the window. We were granted a room for the two of us since we arrived a few days ago. And it was good that there were two beds here, so he and I had to sleep separately. Since then, I have been avoiding and not being intimate with him. Also, during those days, I couldn't help but feel worried because our mission was almost near our triplet's birthday. I really wanted to handle their birthday event, but I had Mother and my assistant handle this for a while. And I already missed my children. I wanted to be with them and showered them with affection. Being f
Chapter 59"Did you two argue?"That was Marcus' question when he toured and introduced me to his pack doctors and infirmary assistants as soon as we arrived. I had to keep a warm smile on everyone until I had bestowed a chance to rest in the corner, silently adoring those baby pups."What is it, my lord?" I asked softly, trying to feign ignorance and looking at him innocently.He tucked his hands in the pockets of his trousers before looking down at the baby pups. Then, his face contorted as if he did not want to stay here."Your mate... Louis." He glanced at me after that.I almost p
Chapter 60For the following days, Alucard was invited to do the cotton harvest in the large, vast field of the pack while women like me would help them provide some water to drink in case they were thirsty. Despite that, we were settling in a hut while cackling and chitchatting."Your mate is built differently, Meredith. Where did you find such a hot mate, huh?" Sally asked, nudging me. She was one of the pack members, and she was also helping provide some water to drink for the men.Alucard and I were starting to take the trust of the pack members in this pack. They were easy to get along with and not hostile, which was good. With my great communication skills, I was in the women's circles.It was a
Chapter 61"Why are we returning to the packhouse?" I asked suspiciously, trying to send some daggers when I realized he was fooling me again.And it was my freaking birthday!"I'm not going to sleep with you if that is what you are after," I added and crossed my arms over my chest when Alucard only smiled sheepishly and said nothing. 'Alucard, say something!' I mind-linked him when I was getting impatient and was about to get out of his arms when he tightened his hold, making my heart unperturbed,"Don't move, dollface," he said when he reached the doorknob and opened it using his foot.As soon as the door swung open, I held my breath upon seeing the delicious dishes that wafted in the air. It froze my system, and at the same time, my stomach grumbled the moment Alucard put me down."What is this...?" I asked, getting confused as I tried to ignore the meal here."Our meal this lunch." I didn't flinch when Alucard
