Silas’s POV
"Look at you, talking like... it’s up to you how to get pregnant. Listen, Silas, it’s up to your mate. If they want you to be pregnant, then they will make you. If they don’t, they won’t make you."
I couldn’t believe my ears! Like, what is he saying now? Is he the sa brother with whom I have grown up and he has changed after I got married? Or is he soone else? Because how can he say sothing like this? Of course it’s totally up to if I want to get pregnant or not. It’s not on my mate.
"Hey, idiot. It’s not up to them. It’s up to , and I have decided that we are not having a second child. Simple. One is enough for us."
Orian was looking at with side eyes like he was judging , but I don’t care even if he judges . Because he doesn’t know how that pain really is, which I have gone through. So I don’t care what he thinks about .
And Velric had fallen asleep in my lap while I was patting him. He was looking so adorable while sleeping. His little eyelashes, his small face — everything is cute about him.
"By the way, Silas, you’re happy here, right? They are all treating you well. You know, your face is seeming much happier than you were with us. It just hurts . Like, are they making you this much happy? That’s why happiness is sprinkling from your face?"
Yes, I was happy. It’s not like I wasn’t happy in our pack. Of course I was. But here, it’s all different. It’s sothing new — a feeling I have never felt before.
"I am sure you will understand one day when you get married."
"I hope that day will co soon."
Just then yer ca, and seeing him, Orian started to blush. And here he was telling I am looking happy here — then what about him? Why is his face getting red and he’s turning red like a tomato?
"I was searching for you and I didn’t find you anywhere. After lunch, why did you co here and not even tell ?" yer said.
In a second, Orian stood up and hugged yer in front of . I covered Velric’s eyes, even though he was sleeping, because he can’t see a scene like this.
"Both of you, go get a room. Don’t be so lovey-dovey in front of ."
"Silas, you have four mates. Still, you are getting jealous of us! Sha on you, sha!"
After that, yer also sat down beside us and we talked till the evening. And just then, I heard... four of their voices from behind us. I realized it was already evening, and they had finished their work. That’s why they were coming to now.
And Velric had also woken up hearing their voices. He was looking at , not even crying after waking up from sleep. His little hands were reaching toward , so I bent down and he touched my cheek. He looked happy from his face. And the four of them had reached us by then.
"Silas, your mates are here. So, we will be leaving now. et you tomorrow."
Saying that, Orian and yer left from there.
"Silas! Since when have you been sitting out here? You know it’s so cold! You’ll catch a cold — and the little one too!" Lysander took Velric from .
And Damon picked up in his arms, bridal style. I also wrapped my hands around his neck, leaning closer to him.
"Is your work done now, Damon? Or is there still so left?"
"Sorry, Silas. There’s still a lot of work left. Even if the four of us are working, the work doesn’t seem to lessen. It’s increasing by the hour. There are so many things we have to pay attention to. But don’t worry. We will still take out so ti for you and our little one."
Damon’s words were enough for . And when he picked up, I realized that I was tired too. I closed my eyes, resting my head on his chest. And when I opened them, he had already brought into the bedroom and I was lying on the bed. I think they are not here, that’s why I sat up and noticed Kael sleeping beside . And there was no one except us in the room.
Kael looked like he was very tired, that’s why he’s sleeping like this. I ca down from the bed without making any noise so that Kael wouldn’t wake up. And I wanted to know where the other three had gone with Velric.
I also wanted to spend my ti with them, but they work all day and I’m lazing around and falling asleep as soon as they arrive. It’s not good.
And when I ca out of the room, I heard laughing from another room. And I knew which room it was. That was Velric’s room — even before he was born, those four had designed that room. It’s a baby’s room. There were so many toys, so many things for Velric.
I thought they were there with Velric. I took a step toward the room, and when I peeked inside, indeed I was right. They had put Velric down on a soft blanket, and the three of them were sitting around him, touching his finger and petting his head. And Velric had also held Damon’s and Lysander’s fingers tightly in his small palm, and when Theron was petting his head, he was giggling.
I just stood there at the door without going in because that scene was so nice. I didn’t want to disturb them. But just then, Damon noticed .
"Oh, Silas, you’re here? What are you doing at the door? Co inside!"
I went inside and also sat at the feet of Velric, and he started to cry when he saw . I think he was hungry.
"Silas, why is he crying all of a sudden? Did he wet his napkin?" Theron asked.
"I think he is hungry."
I took Velric in my lap and opened the zipper near my chest and started to breastfeed him. As I was doing it while petting him, I noticed those three were looking at him with strange eyes, like they were hungry too.
"What happened? Why are you three looking at like this?"
"Silas, won’t you spoil us too?" Lysander said, and his voice was so soft and he made a cute face.
"What do you an by spoil you?"
They all went silent after hearing , and while Velric fell asleep, I put him down on that thick blanket and covered him so he wouldn’t catch a cold.
"You all must be tired, right? Did you eat anything? And Kael had already fallen asleep. I think he is really tired," I said.
"Silas, I also want to drink," Damon said.
"Huh? What do you want to drink?"
His eyes fell on my chest, and I noticed that since I started feeding Velric, they were also looking at my chest. So now I understood what they wanted.
"Are you out of your mind? You know it hurts so much, even when I feed Velric — and you want it too? I feel so angry now! What did you take for? Do you think I’m a cow?"
They all exchanged glances, and I didn’t understand what they were thinking just by their faces. Because all of them had serious expressions, like this was sothing very important.
"I promise it won’t hurt you. Just let us taste a little bit," Theron said.
I kept saying no, no, no, but they were asking again and again, so I ended up saying yes — but only for a little while. And to be honest, it’s really hard even when Velric’s mouth gets on them. Even though Velric doesn’t have teeth, it still hurts — and these guys have teeth. Just thinking about it made shiver in fear.
As they all ca toward , just then I heard...
"What are you all doing here without ? It’s already night, so why aren’t you sleeping?"
His eyes half-open and half-closed, his hair ssy, he was still half-asleep.
"Yes, you are right! Kael, it’s ti to sleep." I quickly stood up and left from there with Kael, leaving the three of them and Velric alone in that room.
After coming back, a servant brought dinner for us because they hadn’t eaten anything, and I was hungry too. So we ate our dinner in the bedroom. It felt so nice. Eating while sitting on the bed is the best feeling in the world.
After our dinner was done, we fell asleep. And my eyes didn’t open until the next afternoon. I didn’t even wake up in the morning. I woke up directly in the afternoon when Orian was waking up. And as I sat up, suddenly yer rushed in with a letter in his hand.
yer’s face was serious, like sothing big had happened. And I was like, what had happened?
"What happened, yer?" Orian asked.
"His Majesty died yesterday," he said with a serious face.
