Married To The Mad Vampire Lord novel Chapter 218

Chapter 218: Perverted husband

"Hmm," he hummed, looking down at her. "It’s the same, only I mixed it with another medicine."

"No wonder it works quicker than the first day I took it at the inn. I think I should put this in some closed container and always carry it with me," she said thoughtfully. "When I took it, I felt so much better... and I can feel something moving in my stomach, like a bubbling sensation..."

She pulled back a bit to touch her stomach just as the movement came again.

"It’s like something is wobbling inside me. Could it be the baby?" she asked in wonderment.

She looked up at Rohan with winded eyes at the thought of feeling her unborn child inside her at this early stage where the pregnancy was just a small little bump in her lower abdomen. She saw as Rohan’s eyes went to her stomach as well, and his big hand covered hers over it as a small smile pulled at his lips.

"That’s why I told you, demons grow faster than any creature in the womb. It’s the baby, it’s happy about the medicine you just took." He stroked his hand over her stomach, caressing it lovingly. "I can feel its heartbeat. It rhymes with yours, making it sound strange."

He couldn’t believe how he had missed the baby’s heartbeat and mistaken it for hers in the first place. Now that he thought about it, he realized he hadn’t suspected she was pregnant because the second heartbeat had been so faint and weak, but now, it was clearer than ever that she carried two heartbeats.

Belle looked fascinated by this, and she looked at her husband and asked, "How long does one carry the child for, is it the same as humans?"

He shook his head. "It depends on when the baby chooses to come out. Normal demons are born within five months of being conceived, and some longer—up to fifteen months. But this baby is not just demon, it’s part human and vampire as well. We can’t be sure when it will choose to want to see the world. We just have to make sure that when it starts to hear the outside noise, we let it know that it shouldn’t be difficult like its father had been," Rohan said with emphasis, just in case the baby could hear him—as he knew it wasn’t far-fetched for it to hear.

"Don’t hurt my wife for me, if you can hear me. She’s a lovely woman who’s going to love you so much until you’re filled with it. Don’t let her get hurt in any way before you’re born."

Belle watched her husband with a smile playing on her face as she couldn’t believe he was talking to her flat stomach, but the words he said brought a swell of tenderness to her heart, and she found herself reaching out to stroke his hair as he stroked her stomach.

"I don’t think it’s old enough to hear, I am only two months pregnant," she remarked with a chuckle, to have Rohan narrow his eyes at her stomach.

"I could hear my mother as early as a month. It can hear me now. It’s good I talk to it and make it understand that I do not want you hurt in any way," he said, his eyes on the stomach as he hoped their child was hearing him to understand what its mother meant to him.

He did not know what he would do if it turned out that their child would hurt her, like he had unintentionally hurt his mother because she did not understand him. He did not want to have any reason to dislike his own flesh and blood, and so he would try his possible best to make sure this child would never give him such reasons—and such reasons could only arise if it hurt his wife.

"Be an obedient little angel and be good to mama..."

Belle could not believe it was possible for the baby to hear them, but then she wasn’t carrying just any baby, and she found herself looking down at her stomach where Rohan’s hand covered the bump. Now that she thought about it, had this baby been a human baby, she was certain it wouldn’t have survived all the things she had gone through in the past month.

There were days she did not eat for a whole day because of her worry for her husband, and there were times she barely slept. No wonder the pains were intense. But now that she knew of her pregnancy, she would do everything in her power to protect their child.

A thought suddenly crossed her mind. What would her parents think if they knew she had abandoned her mission and fallen in love with her husband—and was also expecting his child? As much as she wanted to close the Chapter of her life in Aragonia completely, there was no turning away from it entirely, as the Dawsons were still her family, and if word got out of her betrayal, it was only a matter of time before the king made sure she paid for it with her life.

The thought brought a shudder to her spine, but she quickly dismissed it. They wouldn’t know where to find her even if they heard about it. She wouldn’t think about them—she would focus on her new family.

She watched Rohan as he talked away to the baby inside her, believing that the child could hear him, and for some reason, she had a feeling it could indeed hear.

"Your hair’s growing longer, Rohan," Belle pointed out as she touched her hand to the length of it that now reached his neck, with disheveled strands around his face.

"I plan to get it cut but I haven’t gotten onto doing it." Since the moment he had woken up, it had been from this to that, and he did not have time to trim his hair that was growing longer faster than anything.
