Love Agreement With The King

"Nothing happened. I told you I had been busy. William is fine and Roselyn too. I just want to keep her safe since she grew wings and it could be dang..." John said but Victor lost the patience when he heard another lie coming from his mouth.

"I had known you for months and you still think you can lie to me straight to my face and think I don't understand it?" Victor was so furious that his jaw clicked and the vein in her neck bloated.

His fists were clenched and his gaze set on John waiting for him to finally tell the truth.

John scoffed, he pulled his hair behind slightly nervous about the direction that their argument was taking, he didn't know what to do. He didn't want to tell him the truth because he promised Roselyn he would have kept the secret.

"I can't tell you right now. Trust me I am not planning anything I am just focusing on my family right now." John emphasized the word family with a different tone of voice and met his gaze to flinch away and shrug.

Victor noticed that yet he didn't understand what John meant.

"I have to go now if you don't have to tell me anything else," John said, but before John could speed away and disappear Victor stretched for his arm and gazed down to the floor.

"I am sorry." He said. "I just missed you and I was scared I would lose you another time."

John smiled, he grabbed Victor's hand which was gripping over his wrist. "You won't lose me. I promise." John said.

After they both smiled Victor told him to walk into the kitchen and offered him a glass of wine and some roasted meat to snack.

At that moment Daniel ran inside and behind him, a few young vampires followed, when they saw John a few of Daniel's friends halted and froze.

"John." They all murmured in sync.

John smiled at them, Daniel glanced at their friends confused, he told them to hurry up, and after a quick nod to John, Daniel speeded into his room followed by the others.

"It's crazy how all the supernatural kids worship you," Victor said while they disappeared speeding into Daniel's room.

"It's not crazy it's scary. It means I made them respect and esteem me and you know how supernatural creatures earn esteem." John clicked his tongue, "by killing many people."

Victor smiled at him supportively while he took a few sips from his glass of wine, "we are not perfect and definitely not going to hell, we already knew that." He said joking to soften up the atmosphere but John's mood didn't seem to change.

"If one day I will have a kid he will have a father who had killed so many people. What kind of example is that?" John's voice broke but then he shook his head, as he understood he had spoken out his thoughts aloud.

"It's fine. I have killed plenty of people too, you don't have to tell that to your son and if he or she finds out you can explain to them that person belongs to your past and teach them not to make the mistakes you have done… I am doing that with Daniel and I am proud of how he is growing." Victor filled John's glass and headed it to him nodding to indulge him to drink.

John drank, Victor's reply reassured him, maybe there was hope for John too. Maybe he could be a good father and his son won't think he is a bad person for having taken so many lives and for being a creature of the night.

When the negative thoughts didn't make him sleep in the night John began to overthink. He even considered the chance that his son would turn his back on him.

In case that happened, he promised himself he would keep an eye on his son no matter what and he would always protect him and Roselyn. He wouldn't force him or her to love him because he knew his past was hard to accept but he would have always been there in case his son changed his mind.

"If you will ever have kids they will be glad and proud to have an amazing father like you," Victor said.

John hugged Victor and told him goodbye as he was looking forward to meeting Roselyn and checking on her.

Victor stopped John to walk away with a severed hoarse voice only to recommend him not to disappear anymore.

John smiled at him, when he speeded back home Abigail had already left to come back home.

John walked immediately into Roselyn's room, she was sleeping and half of the biscuits on the tray had disappeared.

He smiled while he quietly cleaned up the room and changed the bed's sheets making sure not to wake her up.

He then asked the maids if Roselyn's visit went fine, he then brought back in her room new biscuits and some tea.

While Roselyn slept she had a dream about her son, she had a vision of her and John packing gifts for the baby, she could feel they were so happy together and nothing had changed since then.

She woke up with a big smile on her lips, that dream confirmed her hopes and drove away from her negative thoughts.

Seeing the tray and the cup refilled a bigger smile curved up her lips as she understood John was back home.

John peeked through the door and he slowly opened it.

"I am back!" He said jumping in the room and opening his arms widely. He ran toward Roselyn and hugged her tightly.

"You have been out two hours." Roselyn giggled.

When John hugged her she began to feel a strong tight all over her bump. She screamed in pain and as soon as her blood-curdling scream filled the room her vision darkened and she had a new vision.
