TRAVOR’S POV:Maybe she noticed my gaze, so she asked me with a hint of confusion in her voice, "What’s the problem with my stomach?"I raise my face and look at her as I ask her hesitantly, "Can I somewhat touch your stomach?"I saw her laugh, and I swear, her eyes were sparkling. The light of the moon went through the window of the car, which somehow shined on her, making it like a halo as she laughed at me with pure happiness, making her look more delicate. Such a scene made me feel warm, and I couldn’t help but soften my expression as I smiled faintly at it. She really looks like an angel.She stopped laughing, but she still had this beautiful smile on her lips as she told me, "You can always do that since it is also your child, and I didn’t make this beautiful angel in my tummy alone."I heaved a sigh hearing this as she leaning her back on the chair to make her tummy more visible in my eyes. I looked at her hesitantly at first, but when I saw her encouraging eyes, I calmed mysel
JAYCEL’S POV:Actually, I was really nervous since the time that Travor dragged me out of the hospital, but I still did my best not to be affected too much, and I somehow succeeded at first. I still had the time to bicker with him and even talk with him, along with both Kiana and Calvin.Speaking of Kiana and Calvin, I really didn’t expect that both of them would become close to the point of being ambiguous. Actually, I am kind of suspecting that one of these days, those two will announce that they are already dating, but of course, I want to hear the news from them personally.One of these days, I will announce my pregnancy to them as well, because I know that they all deserve to know about it, and just in case the war breaks out, they will know that something uncontrollable might happen.I look at the guy beside me as we walk towards the door of their house. Actually, as we are making our way there, I also couldn’t help but to look around and was so impressed by how big their house
JAYCEL’S POV:I looked at the boxes in front of them and smiled awkwardly. Actually, I really didn’t know what to give them on this first meeting, so I chose to call my subordinates to bring these things. While I was on missions before, I also brought back a lot of valuable things, and these two are among them.When the Xercel and I came here to be with the Empress, I also brought all these valuable things with me. I just hid them on the headquarters that we had here in this country to avoid suspicion or being snatched by anyone, just in case.I heaved a sigh and answered his question hesitantly, "Please open them, Uncle, because I choose not to say it unless you see it since these gifts were chosen by me in the last minute, so I hope you will like them."I saw that both of them looked at each other for a few seconds before looking at the boxes in front of them together.I saw Auntie Hanah look at me and smile as she asked, "We will open it now, can we?"Although I was really hesitant
JAYCEL’S POV:Silence enveloped the four of us, so I became even more tense and nervous as I waited for the time when his parents would get over it and say what their feedback was about what Travor said.Actually, I didn’t expect that he would be so frank about marriage; I was just expecting that he would reveal my pregnancy, but because of my nervousness, I didn’t have the time to react to that nor the time to argue.After a few minutes, I couldn’t help it anymore, so I looked to my side, where Travor was sitting, but he wasn’t looking at me but was still looking straight at his parents. However, I notice that his face doesn’t show any nervousness or guiltiness but is so calm. He was too calm to the point that maybe he felt my gaze towards him, so he gently squeezed my hand without looking in my direction.I looked down at our intertwined hands and somehow felt comfortable due to that gesture, so I closed my eyes and secretly heaved a sigh to calm my nerves before opening my eyes and
JAYCEL’S POV:Hearing what she asked, I couldn’t help but to heave a helpless sigh and answer, "Yes, and I am willing to tell you all about it later, but since this happened, maybe I will tell you first since the Empress and the Emperor already knew about it anyway.""What is it then?" She asked, and based on her voice, she seemed confused about it and curious at the same time.I looked at Travor gently before I answered her as calmly as possible by saying, "I am pregnant, Kiana.""What the fuck?" She immediately exclaimed as soon as I finished saying those words, and I could say that she was really shocked since she asked afterwards, "I am not hallucinating, and you really said that you are pregnant, right?"Before I could answer, I heard someone’s voice from the other line, which I assumed was owned by Ysabelle, as she asked confusingly, "Who is pregnant?"I heard Kiana’s hesitant voice as she answered, "It was Jaycel who told me that she was pregnant."I heard a gasp, which I know
KIANA’S POV:I sighed and told them about it. After a few minutes, a firework exploded in the sky in the form of the Empress organization’s symbol, which means that they already need help. All of us panicked and prepared ourselves.I immediately shouted in panic, "Let’s go to that place and help the Empress."Calvin replied with a serious voice, "Let’s go!"After that, all of us hurriedly ran towards the place as the sound of guns and dynamite rang around the place. My eyebrows furrowed as worries arose, and I felt like my heart was hanging on a thread.As soon as we arrived in front of the building, I immediately looked back and signaled some of our people to disperse to surround the area until the only people left were the three of us.I looked at the two of them beside me and told them, "I will use the front door."Calvin immediately replied, "I’ll go with you."When I didn’t hear any answer from Ysabelle, I immediately looked at her with a questioning look, but I just saw her look
KIANA’S POV:I tried my best to find out if someone was here with me, but since I couldn’t feel any presence, I held the folding laptop in my hand, which was the same size as a flat piece of stainless steel.Actually, it was kind of hard to activate this one due to the fact that it was so dark in here, but I still did my best to find the fingerprint scanner, and after I did, it immediately lit up and transformed into a small laptop automatically.As soon as it was opened, I immediately saw the surroundings, only to realize that I was inside a torture room due to the fact that I was surrounded by a lot of whips, knives, hammers, and other things that gave me chills. Why am I even here? I’m starting to regret it now.I heaved a sigh and tried to calm my tense nerves because of my situation right now. After all, I still need to find my master, knowing that the Empress and the others are doing their best to fight against those people to make time for me here."I will be fine, and nothing
KIANA’S POV:Calvin and that guy were still locked in combat, and despite my own injuries, worry gnawed at me. As I mulled it over, I remembered that Calvin was an heir to some powerful organization, and it struck me that he must have undergone intense training since his childhood.It's funny how I realized I didn't know much about him, yet here I was, placing my trust in him without hesitation. I had made up my mind; I was determined to stand by his side, come what may.In the midst of the fight, Calvin's eyes met mine as he kicked the impostor away. His expression grew serious as he commanded, "Go find him. I'll handle this."I swallowed hard, my hand clutching over my aching stomach, and I shook my head, stubbornness flaring up. "No, I can't just leave you here alone! I'm worried."The adversary lunged at him again; their clash was intense. Calvin shot back with a cold retort, his voice cutting through the chaos: "You have to trust me and stop being so damn stubborn, Kiana." He lan
