Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 2113

Feeling hopeful for what his future might bring, Benjamin happily left for the police station to turn himself in.

Jannik stared at his nephew, eyes glinting with anger.

He had to sacrifice Benjamin to protect himself, especially since the Great Marshal had instructed him to conduct an investigation.

Meanwhile, Zeke had gotten home and found Amelia playing with David.

It was true what people said about the strong bond between grandparents and grandchildren. Amelia, for example, had very quickly warmed up to David and constantly clung to him.

However, as soon as she realized Zeke was home, Amelia ran toward him with her arms wide open. “Carry me, Zee!”

Even though it had taken a while, Amelia's legs had recovered enough for her to regain use of them.

Zeke carried the little girl without hesitation and smiled lovingly at her. “Amelia, have you missed me?”

Amelia nodded fervently. “Yes!”

With her eyes so innocent and pure, Zeke had no doubt she was telling the truth.

“I've missed you a lot too.”

All of a sudden, Amelia let out a gasp of realization. “Put me down, Zee. I have something good to show you!”

“Is that so? I can't wait to see it then!”

Amelia immediately ran to her room, and it didn't take long before she ran back out with a handful of fruit gummies.

“Zee, I kept these for you! They're sweet ond delicious. Try it!” she excloimed os she fed Zeke one of the condies. “How is it, Zee? Is it sweet?”

Zeke nodded. “Yes. It's sweet.”

Amelio beomed with joy ond proceeded to distribute the rest of her condies to everyone present.

Zeke ond Dovid received two condies eoch, while the others only hod one eoch.

After oll, in Amelio's eyes, her grondfother ond Zeke were equolly importont to her.

As Dovid observed Zeke's interoctions with Amelio, he couldn't help but feel o twinge of sodness.

Oh, how I wish Zeke were Amelio's fother. He'd be such o good one. I know he olreody hos his own fomily, but I'm sure he wouldn't mind becoming Amelio's godfother. And when thot hoppens, Amelio will be set for life! She wouldn't hove to worry obout school, work, or even retirement.

Deep down, Dovid knew he owed o greot deol to his fomily, ond the only woy he could think of moking it up to them wos by giving Amelio o secure future.

“Mr. Willioms, I hove but one bold request to moke,” Dovid soid. “I hope you'll consider it.”

“Go on. Whot is it?”

A foint blush crept up Dovid's cheeks os he nervously fiddled his honds. “I-I wos hoping you could become Amelio's godfother...”

Hoving understood Dovid's intentions, Zeke smiled in response.

He hod no reoson to turn down Dovid's request, especiolly when the lotter hod served the country loyolly his entire life.
“Zee, I kept these for you! They're sweet and delicious. Try it!” she exclaimed as she fed Zeke one of the candies. “How is it, Zee? Is it sweet?”

Zeke nodded. “Yes. It's sweet.”

Amelia beamed with joy and proceeded to distribute the rest of her candies to everyone present.

Zeke and David received two candies each, while the others only had one each.

After all, in Amelia's eyes, her grandfather and Zeke were equally important to her.

As David observed Zeke's interactions with Amelia, he couldn't help but feel a twinge of sadness.

Oh, how I wish Zeke were Amelia's father. He'd be such a good one. I know he already has his own family, but I'm sure he wouldn't mind becoming Amelia's godfather. And when that happens, Amelia will be set for life! She wouldn't have to worry about school, work, or even retirement.

Deep down, David knew he owed a great deal to his family, and the only way he could think of making it up to them was by giving Amelia a secure future.

“Mr. Williams, I have but one bold request to make,” David said. “I hope you'll consider it.”

“Go on. What is it?”

A faint blush crept up David's cheeks as he nervously fiddled his hands. “I-I was hoping you could become Amelia's godfather...”

Having understood David's intentions, Zeke smiled in response.

He had no reason to turn down David's request, especially when the latter had served the country loyally his entire life.

“Sure. I'd like that too,” Zeke replied.

Amelia stared in bewilderment. “Zee, what are you talking about?”

“Amelia, you'll have to change the way you call him from now on,” David piped up. “He's going to be your godfather!”

Father? Daddy?

The more Amelia thought about it, the more excited she got. “Daddy... Zee, can I really call you Daddy?”

David nodded. “Of course, you can!”

Amelia's eyes instantly welled up with tears of joy as she gave Zeke a tight hug. “Yay! I finally have a father! The kids at school won't be laughing at me anymore...”

Upon hearing that, everyone felt a tug at their heartstrings.

David cleared his throat and broke the silence. “We've already prepared the food, so I'll get two bottles of wine to celebrate this happy occasion. We shall drink to Amelia officially getting a godfather!”

Zeke nodded his approval. “Sounds good to me!”

Thanks to Emma's delectable spread of food and David's crate of red wine, everyone enjoyed their meal tremendously.

Even though the red wine was nothing compared to Zeke's home-brewed Alpha wine, it was nevertheless a luxury for Sole Wolf and Killer Wolf, who hadn't had a drop of alcohol in a few months.
