《Love Agreement With The King》Chapter 184 - Close Family
Advertisement
After two hours from the meeting and a nap, Roselyn took after spending the night doing other things besides sleeping they finally headed toward the carriage.
John opened the door for Rose to walk in, she lifted her long skirt and stepped inside before sitting down at her usual seat near the right window.
"I can not believe our secret had been exposed." Rose scoffed but John placed his hand over her shoulders pushing her close to him and kissing her cheek.
"Stooooop overthinkiiinggg," he said making a weird voice that had Roselyn giggle.
"You saw what happens to you when you overthink too much and I don't want you to feel sick." He said assuming his usual tone of voice.
Roselyn opened her mouth to complain but John didn't let her move as he trapped her with his arm and kept placing multiple kisses all over her face.
"John!" She giggled when he didn't stop and was ruining Roselyn's makeup as he kept kissing every inch of her face.
John only let her go when they were near Abigail and Victor's residence and Roselyn was still laughing. He always found a way to cheer her up and Roselyn wouldn't want anyone else but him by her side.
"Ready?" He said stretching his hand toward her as he stepped outside the carriage.
Roselyn took his hand and brought it behind her back as she leaned closer to him to kiss him deeply over his lips.
"Now I am ready," she whispered to him.
The couple headed toward the door and when in front of the threshold John knocked at the door, one of Victor's servants opened the door and as soon as the old man recognized John he bowed his head.
"G-g-good evening your heights." He stuttered as his face became paler.

"Hh-how can I help you?" He asked when he lifted his head to gaze at the Royal couple in shyness.
"I would like to talk to my cousin, Lord Victor, and his wife," John said and quickly enough the servant bowed another time before hastily turning around to head to call Victor.
Abigail and Victor arrived in few minutes, Victor smiled at the two of them while Abigail seemed to be avoiding Roselyn's gaze as she looked down the floor.
"Hi…" Roselyn smiled to Abigail, "can we talk in private?" She whispered and Abigail nodded.
Abigail began to walk toward another room and Roselyn quietly followed her, she could hear her breath heavy and her heart beginning to speed.
When Abigail entered the room Roselyn turned around to close the door.
Abigail gazed up at her sister waiting for her to speak.
Roselyn took a deep breath, finding the guts to speak. "I am sorry Abi. I am." Roselyn said.
"I didn't know how you would react and if you would support me." Roselyn continued.
Abigail took a long resigned breath, "I lied to you too about my pregnancy because I was afraid you wouldn't understand me." She said before taking a long step toward Roselyn.
"I am sorry. I thought that our family was close at all if we both kept secrets with each other's." Abigail continued. "I am not mad at you I am just disappointed."
Roselyn hinted at a smile, taking both Abigail's hands and shaking them. "It doesn't mean that we can't build that special bond now."
Abigail smiled at her sister and gazed down at Roselyn's hands that cupped perfectly her sister's hands.
"We can," Abigail replied and Roselyn in disbelief wrapped her sister in her arm as she embraced her tightly.

"I was thinking about this last night. I was afraid that you would leave me too. Mom came to visit me and insulted me for having ruined the Clayton family." Roselyn scoffed, still not departing from the hug. She felt safe in her sister's arms and she missed her sister so much that now she didn't want to leave her anymore.
"Mom said that?" Abigail asked and even if Roselyn couldn't see her facial expression from the tone of voice she deduced she was just as shocked as her.
"Yes. She asked me to step back and leave my place to Sharon." Roselyn added rolling her eyes.
"I am sorry Rose." Abigail held her tighter to show her support and love.
"I am fine, I truly am," Roselyn said finally departing from her gaze. She was being honest, she was fine and she was happy to see her sister by her side.
"I will never keep secrets from you."
Abigail smiled, "I won't keep anything from you either, pinky promise?" She asked giggling and stretching her hand toward Roselyn.
Roselyn nodded before locking her pinky with Abigail's finger as she smiled widely at her sister.
"Promise," Roselyn whispered before wrapping her once again in her arms, she held her so tight that Abigail was worried she would break her between her arms.
"Rose!" Abigail laughed, "you would break me." She complained in between the laughs and Roselyn finally took few steps back.
"Sorry." She said suffocating a laugh seeing Abigail messaging her arms that Roselyn squeezed abruptly.
"How is the baby?" Roselyn asked when her gaze traveled down to her bump that was slightly more visible than the last time.
"It's growing fast," Roselyn noted and Abigail smiled before caressing her belly gently.
"Victor said that since he was a vampire the child could be a supernatural creature as well and it will grow faster than humans," Abigail explained sighing.
Roselyn's eyes widened. "Do you know how many months approximately?" she asked, her mind automatically took the direction to wonder if her child with John would grow as fastly as theirs.
"Not yet, but It only been almost one month but I am not noticing any unusual growth." Abigail wrinkled her nose.
"Oh…" Roselyn frowned her forehead as her sister's statement brought her back to Earth. "No! Look at how big the bump already is!" Roselyn tried to comfort her sister and Abigail's eyes sparkled.
"You think so?" Abigail asked in a joyful tone of voice.

Campaign: A Project Starfarer Sidestory
This novel’s lore, story and characters are entirely fictitious. Certain long-standing countries, institutions, organizations, agencies, and public offices are mentioned, but their histories and the characters involved are wholly imaginary. "What will you do with your freedom?"Growing up in a meritocracy, infamous for being lawless, Jordan Astros had been repeatedly asked this question, since times unmemorable. In a society where one's accomplishments and skills were tallied and ranked in order to determine one's standard of living however, Jordan quickly grew to understand that 'freedom,' was a reward earned by accumulating Merit. And so, after his 17th birthday, Jordan departed his Clan's habitat in orbit of Europa to embark on his century-long journey to rise from E-Ranker to S-Rank. And spread his name throughout the Galilean Powers. *** Campaign is a sidestory within its NanoPunk parent series, Project Starfarer. (Yet to be published. Be on the lookout for it!) In which the first transhuman known to humanity, the Starfarer, invokes a plan to seed terrestrial life throughout the galaxy. Campaign takes place around the middle of that timeline and explores the life of a key figure in that universe, Jordan Astros. And explores one of four great nations thriving in the Solar System during that time. A Meritocracy that spans Jupiter and its 79 moons, The Galilean Powers. What you'll find in Campaign: Brutal melee combat in airless and pressurized low gravity environments. A technology based progression system influenced by merit and accomplishments; using tech that's theoretically possible to exist in the near-future. An exploratory perspective of the dozens of Galilean societies, or 'Powers,' from Jordans; and sometimes others', POV. What you wont find: Romance. Harems. An MC who receives shortcuts, handouts, learns things unnaturally fast or has OP plot armor. Jordan is not a special individual. Jordan is not OP and he likely never will be. He's no different than any other citizen in the Galilean Powers and will certainly face as many defeats as he does wins. He'll suffer losses and grow as an individual, while the Powers evolves around him as well. This is semi-hard sci-fi/NanoPunk and takes place in a fictional version of our future solar system. Centered around technology that's plausible in the near-centuries to come. Everything abides by the laws of physics/thermodynamics (As best that I understand them, at least. I'm no scientist.) No artificial gravity, inertial dampeners, teleportation, FTL, or hand-wavy materials will be found in the Project Starfarer universe. Just advanced automation, nanotechnology, cybernetics and AI. Set in the backdrop of space. *I do not own the photo used for the cover*
