The Vampire King's Secret Baby Chapter 86: Santa's Naughty Gift
I HAD treated the castle as my second home. I was familiar with the rooms here but today; I could not push the door open. His Majesty summoned me in his office.After what I just saw and what I had just been through, I didn’t know how to face His Majesty again. My left thigh still hurt the way it did in the dream.No, screw that. It was a nightmare. I had proven that myself. And while I’m here, comfortable and in peace, Violet was still there, trying to act like some sort of a fixer. What in the world was she thinking? Who was it that she wanted to talk to?“I know you’re there, Damon. Get in,” His Majesty commanded.I shook my head and struggled to follow Violet’s wishes. She may be a terrible lover but when it came to her clan, she was devoted. She said she learned that from Dayanara, her mentor and her hero.I plastered a smile on my lips before opening the door. I was surprised by the dark atmosphere that greeted me inside. The king was frowning.Jonathan was there, too, and was s
The Vampire King's Secret Baby Chapter 87: Playtime's Over
(Zachary)THIS Christmas will remain stuck in my head for years not only because it was the first Christmas the city had celebrated, but because it was the first time that Santa Claus actually got to receive a Christmas gift.Swan was that generous. She removed the ribbon on my head and tied it around my hands.“You are my gift. That means I can have you however I want, right?” she whispered on my ear before running her tongue over my earlobe. “No matter what I say and do, you can’t complain.”My breathing quickened. “I won’t.”She smiled. And my heart raced for the countless time. With her cheeks still flushed, she commanded, “Then roll over for me, Santa. Tonight, I’ll be on top.”I grinned. “Gladly.”I didn’t know that giving and receiving gifts could be this thrilling.We shifted positions. She sat on my stomach. I had already gotten rid of her bra earlier although she was still wearing her dress. If only she didn’t glare at me and said that it was her favorite dress, I would have
The Vampire King's Secret Baby Chapter 88: A Taste Of Heaven
I WAS about to grab a glass of water for Kate when I noticed the blue roses in the vase. My brows knitted. I strode forward and took the card beneath the vase. There was a short message on the card, but there was no name from the sender. The penmanship was almost the same as mine. ‘I love you,’ those three words made my jaw clench. “Oh, I almost forgot to thank you for the flowers,” Kate said in a sleepy voice. “That’s so sweet of you, Zach, for sending flowers twice every day. Thank you and I love you, too.” I just smiled. I do give her flowers every morning when she wakes up, but I didn’t bother inserting a card. And I don’t ask somebody else to give it to her for my own selfish reasons. I wanted to see her reaction myself and I wanted to be the only one to see her smile as she receives it. These blue roses were not from me. The sender may have left out his name on the card, but he did leave his scent on it although it was faint. This had the same scent as Dimitri’s which meant
The Vampire King's Secret Baby Chapter 89: Walk Of Shame
(Zachary)“THE KING is quiet these days. What if he is up to something, my lord?”“You fool. Didn’t you hear? He had the mages investigated. The mages had always disliked the vampires. We set the trap flawlessly. All the traces would lead to those bitches. Even if they are loyal to their so-called queen, one of them are still bound to slip up, especially that fat-ass Salazar who blamed and threatened us after Dayanara died. If the castle and the mages fight, the city will be divided. We will use that opportunity to turn the tables around.”“Are you sure it would work? All the hunters cannot be trusted, lord Franco.”“Alucard made a pact with me. His only target is that damned Kate. He would leave after he catches her. If the king loses his woman, he would certainly go berserk. He would lose his credibility. You know how foolish the public is. Just a little coaxing from us and they would hate him. This is our
The Vampire King's Secret Baby Chapter 90: Thirst
(Kate)‘CONGRATULATIONS, your highness. You are now a hundred percent free from the Hunters’ grasp. All the bad blood inside your system had been cleared.’I had been away from the hunters for years and I had been living in the vampire city for months, but the only time I felt truly liberated was after hearing Juno’s announcement followed by the Mages’. That was the best way to start the year for all of us.It made me feel confident, and hopeful for the following days, months, and years to come. I feel so happy that it was almost frightening because this is the first time that I feel such beautiful and positive emotions inside me.I glanced at Zachary who was sitting beside me near the bonfire. Both of us were watching our daughter as she builds a castle of her own through the white sand.We decided to celebrate our first New Year together by the beach.Zachary was busier than ever now. Sadly, I couldn’t g
The Vampire King's Secret Baby Chapter 91: When Darkness Falls
“IT WAS true, your majesty. Her highness is two weeks pregnant,” Ravena confirmed. “Congratulations!”“Does that mean I’m going to have a baby sibling?” Mira asked, her eyes were glowing.Ravena smiled. “Yes, princess.”“The baby is a full-blooded vampire, your majesty. That must be why her highness’ desire for blood had magnified.”Mira covered her mouth as if to stop herself from shouting out of sheer joy.I wanted to join her in her happiness, but I was a little lost.Ravena was smiling and was congratulating me, but I could see the agitation behind her smile. Even if Kate was pregnant, what happened back in the woods… was far from normal.I was not born yesterday. I had seen pregnant vampires many times before. The amount of blood bags Kate consumed in one day could feed a village full of vampires.When Mira headed out of the door to announce the good news to the servants, I motioned my hand. The door closed.I faced the mage. “I will only ask this once, Ravena. Is everything real
The Vampire King's Secret Baby Chapter 92: When Tomorrow Comes
(Zachary)“YOUR Majesty, you are not supposed to see the bride tonight. Mages have a strict tradition that we ought to follow. It is bad for the groom and bride to meet the night before their wedding. The ancestors are watching. Please forgive us for blocking your path. We are only doing this for you and Her Highness’ blissful marriage,” Ravena explained while wiping the sweat off her forehead.All the Mages who were guarding Kate’s chamber were wearing thin clothes because of the hot temperature spreading not only in this area but in the entire castle. The Vampires and Mages who had water abilities were not enough to deal with the temperature.Mira, along with most of the servants, were outside the castle to cool themselves. Kate used her ability and unknowingly spread it because she was suffering from the cold.“I do respect your tradition, but I could hear her crying from here, Ravena. She needs me. She is having a difficult time at the moment. And she is all alone inside.”The Mag
The Vampire King's Secret Baby Chapter 93: All In
(Kate)LAST NIGHT, before closing my eyes, I remember praying for warmth. I prayed for a better day. I prayed for peace of mind. I prayed for love to wash all of my worries and fears away so that when this big day comes, I would be prepared. I could welcome it with a big smile.My groom doesn’t deserve tears. Just smiles.After being emotional these past few days, a genuine smile was all I wanted to show him today.This morning, when I opened my eyes again and finally felt the warmth coming from the windows, from the sunlight, when I woke up without the heaviness in my chest, for the first time, I could say with full conviction that my prayers were answered.I wanted the baby to feel the same warmth that I’d been feeling, too.The past days was hard. I had a conception dream. That was when I first found out about the baby. And that was all I remembered because my memories were in shambles.But despite the hardship, I never

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

(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
