Johanna woke up from her nap. She's extrely hungry and it's a good thing that their food arrived. Victor set it up on the floor with cold beers, hot chicken, fries, fruits, and so dips. She smiled, crawled to the edge of the bed, and joined her brother. She put plastic gloves on and took a spicy chicken thigh. She took a big bite and humd.
"I was starving." She mumbled and chewed.
"It's the best chicken store I know." He said. "The spices are way different from any fast food."
She nodded her head to agree with him. He took a big bite and finished a small chicken thigh in a short ti. Then, he opened the can of beer and sipped on it.
"So, how's everything?" Victor asked.
"Like?" She grumbled while munching on her food.
"Your life."
"Oh," She looked around and even on the ventilator. "I was adopted by a Del Carlo couple. The little girl that I was telling you about in my letter was Keira. She's a musical genius." She finished one chicken thigh and put it on the plate for bones. "They treat well. Like their very own daughter, Papa spoiled a lot. Mama does the sa."
"Hmm,"
"Harvey, their firstborn, was very protective of Keira. We were rivals back then but I know he cares for . He even visits many tis and treats to food a lot. He also buys gifts every holiday until he dies."
"Harvey," Victor creased his brows. Then, she nodded her head.
"They are royals. Crown Prince Harvey Rossie Del Carlo."
"Harvey is alive?"
"Yup. You lost your mind for like months now, after they controlled you." She removed her plastic gloves and patted his head. "If you forgot sothing or feel anything weird. Just tell . Okay?"
"I will, baby girl." He nodded his head.
"For now, let's just enjoy being their captive."
A knock on the door interrupted them, then it opened as a guy's head popped out. Gray smiled and lifted more beers and foods as Victor glared at him.
"Victor!" The little boy and other kids entered. Then, they rushed to Victor and hugged him.
"They requested to et your sister." He said and grinned at them.
Johanna recognized the faces. They were part of the investigation and she happened to know all of their nas.
"Okay, you can leave now," Victor told him coldly.
"Co on, bro. I brought food too."
Johanna patted the spot beside her as the little girl nad Alexa sat down. Gray thought that she was telling him to sit beside her. But the kids already sat down and dug with the food and chips. They also have sodas. The kids were smiling and asking a lot of questions about Johannah.
Karmina stood on the balcony of the main hall as her people were standing outside waiting for her words. She delivered her speech as the Queen of this country. There were a lot of injured soldiers but the civilians were safe. She did well on protecting them after months of preparations. However, a lot of people pity her for losing her daughter and her son-in-law, but the war is just starting. Sooner or later, they are going to use Johanna to win the war.
The people cheered and clapped their hands. She smiled and bowed her head. She turned back as her husband followed her. He held her hand while they were walking toward the door.
"I want to go ho." She whispered at him.
"Ho? Where?"
"To our kids." She said softly.
"Mina, we can't yet."
"I know." She sighed frustratingly.
"Let's go back to the castle." He rubbed her back.
Back in the castle, she went to Ian's room where he's currently lying on the bed while his wife was sitting beside him and wiping off his face.
"So, who's the big baby?" Karmina asked as she sat on the sofa.
"He's been complaining about body pain," Tracey said as she pressed the damp towel over his forehead. He winched and opened his eyes.
"Babe, are you trying to kill ?"
"That thing won't kill you." She scolded him. "If you weren't aggressive on the field this won't happen to you." She continued to scold him while she took a glass of water with a straw.
"I told you not to co here, but here you are. Scolding ." He grumbled.
"Well, I will be leaving in three days to the Philippines to check on my kids. You better be fine."
"Can I take a break for a week?" Ian complained.
"Sure. But watch over the country."
"I am sure that Keira and Sandro are fine. You don't have to check on them."
Tracey creased her brows and was puzzled. Then, Ian bit his lips and looked at his wife to see her reaction.
"What?" Tracey looked at Karmina and Henry.
Henry locked the door.
"Well," Karmina looked at Tracey. "They are fine. They haven't left this place. They are sowhere safe." Karmina walked toward the window and closed the white curtains.
"What?" Tracey looked very much baffled. "They~They are alive?" Tracey's tears rolled down her cheeks. Ian sat up and wiped her tears. "H-How?"
"We have our ways to protect this family." Ian scooped her face and kissed her lips. "Don't tell anyone about this," Ian told her. "I will spoil you a lot. Just don't tell anyone."
"Why would I fucking tell anyone? She's my only friend."
"Oh," Ian forgot about that. He lay back and moaned in pain. "Babe, can you get so food?"
"Go get it yourself." She smacked his chest and he winced and looked at his wife's expression.
"Alright, I'm making so lemon pie," Karmina said and walked to the door. Henry opened the door as he signed with a line across his neck. Then, he followed his wife.
Tracey glared at Ian and smacked him again after the door closed.
"Why didn't you fucking tell ?!"
"Babe, chill. Baby needs to chill too." He reached her round stomach and caressed it.
"Fuck you." Tracey pushed his hand as she stood, angrily. "If I had known, I wouldn't get depressed over it."
"I'm sorry." Ian's head was aching.
"What do you want to eat?" She asked.
"Anything. I can eat your pussy too." He teased but she glared at him as she reached the cushion and threw it to his face. "I'm sorry." He chuckled as he winced again.
After the war and receiving minor injuries and body pain, he beca very dependent on his wife. She takes care of him and even feeds him. She's pregnant but she takes care of him like he's a baby. It's been a long ti since soone cared for him like this.
"Co here, baby."
She sat back on the bed, lay down, and snuggled to him.
"We will wait for the lemon pie." She whispered.
"Hmm," He nodded his head. He carefully turned sideways to her and kissed her lips. "I'm sorry." He whispered. "We are trying to cover them up until we clear things. We can't risk Keira and Alessandro and their baby."
"I understand. I am just pissed off that you didn't tell about it." She rubbed his chest. "I heard that the Lebefure siblings are still in this country."
"Yup. They can't leave. They are our captives." He whispered.
"I better not see that bitch who was hitting on you." She frowned at him. He only laughed and pressed his lips to her forehead.
"I love you." He whispered. "And our baby." He looked down at her chest. "And your full beauties. I can't wait to suck them."
"You are still horny even when you are injured." She raised her brows.
"Of course," he grinned and scooped her right breast. "This is bigger than before." He whispered.
"You are probably hungry." She pushed him as she sat up.
He moved closer to her tummy to kiss it.
"Babe, I feel like I'm going to have a fever." He whispered.
"Too bad."
She carefully pushed him down and pulled the sheets.
"I will prepare sothing for you. You should probably take a nap."
"I will."
Tracey stopped and looked at him.
"Babe, how can I contact my best friend?"
"Hmm," Ian thought for a while. "You can ask, Mina."
"Also, Alicia called about Leon. He's still in a coma."
"The big guy is probably just resting. He will be back soon." He mumbled. "He did hit his head and there's a mild hemorrhage. He will sleep a lot." He yawned and pulled the duvet.
"I will make you sothing." She kissed his lips and he responded quickly.
Tracey left her husband as she went downstairs to the kitchen. It was a long walk to the kitchen but since they make a special room for Karmina's kitchen on the ground floor, she wouldn't have to walk on the main kitchen underground. Guinevere was currently speaking to soone over the phone outside the kitchen and she approached her. Guinevere hung up and smiled at her.
"So, how's the big baby?" Guinevere asked with a sneer. She teased Ian so much after acting like a big baby the ti that Tracey arrived.
"Well, he's dramatic." Tracey giggled.
"I take a leave for work. I am currently waiting for Ace."
"That's good." Tracey nodded and kept her mouth zip about Keira and Alessandro.. Her heart was fluttering crazily when they said that Keira and Alessandro are alive.
