The Vampire King's Secret Baby Chapter 64: Cursed
IN THE MIDDLE of the patients who stopped and looked at me with hope in their eyes, of the knights who eyed me with sudden admiration, of Jonathan who raised his thumb, silently telling me I did a good job, I saw their King.Him being here meant that the storm was over now.I was expecting that Zachary would explode. We were obviously caught doing things without his permission. But then a tender smile curled his lips. And then he said something which seemed exclusive for my ears only.“You did great, swan. I am proud of you.”He was wearing a cloak as if he didn’t want to be noticed by others. He wanted this moment solely for me.“Take them. You earned them,” he added.I glanced back at the knights. I didn’t know that I would receive this much acknowledgment from them.“To be honest, this is too much. All I did was lend a hand, really. I was available and so I just did what I had to do. I wasn’t expecting anything,” I said as I consciously scratched my forehead. In my mind, I could he
The Vampire King's Secret Baby Chapter 65: Dive Into You
I THOUGHT the palace would be filled with darkness, but as soon as the door closed, the lights from the crystal chandeliers all lit up. I was surprised to know that they were still working just fine even after all these years.So, all along, Zachary had the ability to light up the rose palace?But Zachary didn’t seem to notice the light. His eyes were on me the whole time. His eyes looked ferocious. He was clearly not himself tonight. It seemed like he was chained here. Knowing him, he must have asked for it. But he broke the thick chains, I only saw remnants of it scattered on the floor. Maybe the reason why Jonathan was confident to leave me with Zachary was because he was chained up.When he growled, I refused to move away. I stood still.He strangled me and lifted me until my feet could no longer reach the ground, his grip was too strong. I was sure it would bruise tomorrow.But the bruises would heal, the pain in his heart wouldn’t. When he regains his senses tomorrow, I was sure
The Vampire King's Secret Baby Chapter 66: Take My Breath Away
THIS TIME, Zachary didn’t make me wait too long. A tear fell from his eye as he ran back to me. He pulled me up and took me in his arms. The coldness finally disappeared. His hot breath warmed my skin.“I’m so sorry I hurt you, Kate.”I put my arms around his neck. “It’s okay. I know you didn’t mean to do it. You know what’s not okay? It’s you walking away from me, Zach. I was scared for a minute there. I thought you were really going to leave me here. If you really stepped out of that door, it would really hurt.”As soon as I decided to be honest, my heart was the one which took over. It kept speaking for me.Zachary wiped my tears away and looked into my eyes. He obviously didn’t remember the things I confessed. Should I be glad? Or should I be sad?“When I told you to be brave and to risk with me, I didn’t know you would follow it to this extent. You are so foolishly brave and you still wonder why I’m in love with you?” he whispered as he tenderly pressed his forehead against mine.
The Vampire King's Secret Baby Chapter 67: Torn
(Zachary)IT HAD been a few hours since Kate had fallen asleep, but here I was, still staring at her beautiful face. I could not sleep. I was torn.After some time, I planted a kiss on Kate’s forehead and lifted the sheets over her shoulders before getting up. I tightened my robe and went to the balcony. I surrounded a barrier inside the room to make sure that her sleep wouldn’t be disturbed.Everything was quiet… except for the sound of their heartbeats.“Until when are you all going to hide there?” I asked as I sat on the steel chair. “Did you really think I wouldn’t hear you breathing?”A few seconds later and Violet appeared before me. She lowered her head to greet me. “It’s good to see you again, your majesty.”“Why don’t we skip that part already? I know you are not particularly happy about seeing me, Violet.”Many of the Mages blamed the Vampires for Dayanara’s death including Violet.“This is what I like about you, your majesty. You are sharper compared to most of the Vampires
The Vampire King's Secret Baby Chapter 68: Every Step You Take
“WE are losing time, your majesty. The Mages have tried everything. We cannot even get too close to Kate whenever we’d perform the spell because that stupid ring creates a barrier between her and the Mages.” Violet’s voice became shaky when she added, “I didn’t get to protect her twin brother. I was hoping I could make it up with Kate. You have no idea how happy I was when I found out about her existence. I owe her mother a lot. When the twins were born, I swore I would protect them but I’ve been failing, damn it. I can’t just watch Kate shatter, your majesty.”“Isn’t this too harsh of a fate? Kate does not even know who she is or what’s happening in her body right now. How could we explain that she is Dayanara and Valentino’s daughter without hurting her?” Juno asked. “Worse, how could we tell her that even if she is away from the Hunters, she is still being controlled by them again? By the same people who had ruin her and her family?“But your majesty, contrary to what Violet said,
The Vampire King's Secret Baby Chapter 69: The Inconvenient Truth
SLOWLY, Kate opened her eyes. My heart broke when I saw how devastated she was. If I could snatch all her pain away, I would. I would not mind carrying it for her.People praised me for being the strongest and most powerful creature in the world and for a long time, that was what I felt as well. But seeing Kate in pain humbled me. I was wrong. I was not as strong as I thought. If I was, I could have done something for her already. But my power does not work that way.Tonight, in front of her, I felt little. I felt weak. I felt… useless.Only her could make me feel this horrible and desperate emotion which knocks me off my feet.The rain was no longer as strong as it was earlier. The lightning had already disappeared although the thunder remained, surprising me and the spectators behind me from time to time.And then she asked, “You still love me?”Silly girl. She had no idea that I could sacrifice the world for her. That was how much I love her. “Of course.”She looked at the blood in
The Vampire King's Secret Baby Chapter 70: The King's Miracle
“HER NAME is Miracle, your majesty. Her mother calls her Mira. She was the one who bit Kate on the shoulder during her first stage of awakening. We had to put her under a slumber spell to slow down the awakening process,” Tau explained as he kneeled before me along with Juno and Violet. Damon helped Jonathan to get up before the two approached me and kneeled together.“Princess Kate and His Majesty have a baby? How come I didn’t know about that?” Juno whispered, shocked.Damon just smacked the doctor’s head and whispered back, “And why the heck would we tell you? You are not the father. Stop acting so shocked, Juno, you are offending the true father.”He turned to me. “We only found it by chance, please believe us, your majesty. It happened the day you asked me and Tau to guard her and we were attacked. We wanted to tell you when we first found out about it. But what could we do?” Damon shook his head helplessly. “It was the first time the princess asked us a favor. And that was to hi
The Vampire King's Secret Baby Chapter 71: Touch Of Magic
SLOWLY, I released Mira. These damned tears just keep on falling as I looked at her innocent face. Never in my life did I think a day would come when I would cry like this in front of my subordinates.I could feel my daughter’s overwhelming power. Giving birth to her must have taken a huge toll on Kate’s body. Knowing how much she endured and suffered without me by her side drives me insane.I should have been there.No matter how Kate pretends to be strong and to be okay, she must have been afraid. I should have held her hand. And when Mira was born, I should have been there to welcome her with Kate.But given the circumstances, I could never blame her for hiding our child. I don’t think I could ever be mad at her. She had been through countless of pain and until now, she is still in pain.I was just enraged by the fact that it was another man who was with her and Mira during all those trying times.Hearing the little girl’s agony about missing her father cuts me deep. But the way sh

The Vampire King's Secret Baby Final Chapter: Our Happy Ending
(Zachary) IT WAS almost five in the afternoon. It was time to pick up swan from her campus. I was about to call the twins who were running around the lawn when I saw how Mira swooped in and carried Alain in one hand and Algernon in another. The twins were playing with their guards who were now sweating so hard. After getting caught by their sister, the boys pouted and lowered their heads. Their playfulness had never worked on my eldest. “What time is it now?” she asked the twins. “Five,” Alain answered. “It’s still three minutes and eleven seconds before five in the afternoon,” Algernon added. “Aren’t you forgetting something?” Mira asked again. The twins gasped and together, they said, “It’s time to pick up Mommy from the human realm!” “You finally remembered. Now go to your rooms and fix yourselves. Don’t come to her campus looking like that. Both of you were the ones who insisted on picking her up today and yet, you forgot?” The t
The Vampire King's Secret Baby Chapter 118: Because You Loved Me
(Kate)IN THE middle of checking the photos the butler had sent regarding Algernon, I noticed Jonathan peeking at his wristwatch. There were more photos to look at. Others were about Mira. She sent the pictures herself. She was getting along really well with her friends. She had completely adapted to her hybrid life.Whenever I’m away, I can’t be at ease unless I see the reports about my children. Even with the blood link, the trauma the witches and the hunters had caused me will take a while to get rid of. And I was glad that Mira understood. She was the one who volunteered to send her daily pictures to me to keep me posted especially whenever they had school activities.But in time, I know the trauma will disappear.The other photos were regarding my husband and Alain who had caused troubles in the office. Violet sent them to me after giving me a call since she visited Damon there and brought him his blood bag. He caught the general in the l
The Vampire King's Secret Baby Chapter 117: Baby's Day Out
“GREETINGS, your majesty and the prince,” everybody greeted. The women held onto the bottom of their skirts because the wind kept blowing them away.I held my little guy’s hand and put it down. The wind vanished. But when he looked up at me, he looked like he was about to cry as if I ruined his fun.“Don’t look at Daddy like that. Here. I brought your favorite toy,” I said and gave him his teddy bear. His smile came back as he grabbed the toy.The people sighed, relieved. But the aftermath of the trouble my son unconsciously caused was still palpable. I snapped my finger. In a blink of an eye, everything had turned back to normal.When we rode the elevator, Damon caught up to us. After bowing to give his greetings, he looked at me curiously.“My wife is in a meeting. I can’t leave the twins under the servants’ care. They already looked so stressed. I had to bring one of them. That’s the only way to appease my wife as well. I didn’t want her to worry all day,” I said before he could as
The Vampire King's Secret Baby Chapter 116: Red Handed
SEEING my wife like this reminded me of the phone call I received while I was still inspecting the border. That was around six in the evening.‘Your majesty?’ she asked in a low voice.I smiled and loosened my tie. There was something in her voice which made me feel hot even if it was windy outside. ‘Yes, swan?’‘What time are you going home tonight?’‘I’m not sure. There are still areas we haven’t visited yet. Why? Do you miss me already? What’s up with this sudden call?’ I teased.I never needed phone calls when I could always teleport whenever I miss her which happens constantly. Most of the time, I would show up in her workplace or in the twins’ room to steal a kiss from her and if I get lucky, we would do it quickly. I just could not get enough of her.I guess I never gave swan the chance to miss me that’s why after two years of our marriage, this was her first time calling me first.‘Nothing. I just called to say that… I’m not wearing any underwear tonight. And I’ve already prep
The Vampire King's Secret Baby Chapter 115: Our Little Devils
Two years later…I KNEW I would find her here. These past few months, I rarely see my wife in our chamber. She was constantly in Alain and Algernon’s room. Even if our twins had their own servants, she was still hands-on when it came to them.It was past eight in the evening. I normally come home at five in the afternoon but today, I went with the knights for the monthly inspection around the borders. Mira greeted me at the doorway a while ago and told me that she already had an early dinner with her mother. Still, I caught her stealing a blood bag in the fridge for a snack.When I heard that her mother was sleeping upstairs, I sent our eldest to bed after her snack and after monitoring her mana and her blood intake since today was Thursday and it was my turn to monitor it to keep her mana and her powers in check. The kingdom may be peaceful now and there were no more threats but after what Kate and Terrence had experienced, it would not hurt to be careful.Our children’s blood was li
The Vampire King's Secret Baby Chapter 114: Mrs. Collins
(Zachary)I FINALLY get it. What they say about family, about parents. I thought I knew enough about parental love after being a father but Dayanara Gregory had shown us what a mother’s love was and why it was important.I had seen it when Swan covered for Mira after she bit her, when she looked at our daughter with wonder and affection in her eyes as she watched her play in the garden, when she brushed her hair, when she worried whether she had taken her meals or not, and when she kissed her at night as she wished her a sweet dream.Lastly, I saw it the night Swan was shackled. I saw how she strived to make sense of the situation when Mira ran to her, barefooted and with tears flowing down her cheeks. I saw how she broke her heart to appease our daughter’s heart while I stood there, unsure what word to say and what step to make, because I never understood the gravity of having a parent and losing one.All I understood was the pain of a husban
The Vampire King's Secret Baby Chapter 113: Sing Me A Lullaby
(Damon)ON the way to the castle, no music could be heard. Unlike before, there were no festivities. There were no children playing on the streets either. All the establishments were closed. The people I saw were wearing white.They hung lanterns in every house as their way of sending the queen off believing that the lanterns will light up her path towards another world.I continued to drive and stopped in front of the castle. The gates were opened for everyone who wished to visit the queen. There were more and more people coming by. I stepped out of the car and instantly heard the sound coming from the flute. It was from Jonathan who was in the garden, her highness’ favorite spot.He looked so lost as he played the flute which gave off a heart-wrenching sound. He hadn’t spoken a single word since yesterday. He hadn’t changed his clothes either. The queen’s blood on his uniform was still there. Even his hand still had her blood on
The Vampire King's Secret Baby Chapter 112: Alone
I KNOW it was wrong to feel this way because swan is still alive. She has to be alive or else, all those traveling, all those twelve duels just for one silly flower would not mean a thing, or else I would regret not being by her side for the past two days as she waited for me while enduring so much. “Swan, hang in there,” I whispered and forced a smile. “We are about to reach the top. Just take a nap for the meantime. I know you are tired. I will wake you when we get there.” It was already bright when we reached the top. I took the final step and stopped to look around us. The wind blew. My chest felt like it was being squeezed when I said, “Wake up, swan. Open your eyes, come on. We are on top of the mountain now. We fulfilled your wish. Do you see it? The scenery is as lovely as you said.” Again, there was silence. “You also said that it would feel liberating when you are one with nature like this. But swan, I don’t feel liberated at all. The beauty I
The Vampire King's Secret Baby Chapter 111: Game Over
I WAS stunned. I could not move. I could not even speak.But when Kate was about to fall, my body automatically moved to catch her. The wind and the rain had stopped at once. The hunters vanished one by one as if their lives were linked with hers. Blood was still gushing from her chest when she tried to open her eyes.They were back to being blue.Jonathan pulled out the sword from her and kneeled before us.Kate proudly smiled at him and said, “T-thank you, Jonathan. You did well.” And then she turned to me. “Where have you been? I missed you, my husband.”I held her hand. “Doctor Juno is preparing the medicine. Wait a little more, swan. I will take you back home and-““No, Zach. I don’t think I could survive this anymore,” she whispered as she caressed my face. “Love, what took you so long? Where were you? I waited for you.”Tears streamed my cheeks. “I’m sorry, swan. I’m sorry for leaving your side. But why did you do that? I don’t need to live forever! What the hell am I going to
