Inheriting a Lost Bloodline, My First Task is to have heirs?!

Chapter 218: Chapter 218 - Lark’s tantrum and Luna’s escape

Lark’s POV

As I was leaving my workplace, I felt a little gloomy again. It was kind of tiring to smile all day since I have to deal with customers of the bread shop. It was more tiring because I know that deep inside, I’m just pretending to be happy since my job calls for it. Once my shift is over, all my smiles are gone. I will be coming home to an empty house again. I will be eating dinner, waking up and going to work alone again. I said I’d be fine but I guess I really wouldn’t be. I quickly realized it the day after she left for Freyheimr.

It has been two weeks with no communication. She said she would be in a place isolated from the outside so she won’t be able to send correspondences to me. I am honestly just hoping and praying to the gods for three things everyday since she left. First, for her to come back to me safely. Second, for her mission and tasks to be completed. And lastly, for her not to bring a new man, whatever race it may be, back here. (Author’s Note: She won’t be bringing anyone back. They are being kept somewhere else. *winks*)

As I left the bread shop and was walking on my way home, someone suddenly grabbed my waist from behind. I was too shocked to even scream for help. In just a few seconds, I felt that nauseating feeling of teleportation and the only thing on my mind was I’m in really big trouble. Am I getting kidnapped right now?

After a few seconds, I slammed face down on a soft bed and there was a weight on my back stopping from making an escape. I knew it was a female but I couldn’t look back to see who it was. I kept kicking and squirming to get away from the position I was in. I tried to beg for the kidnapper not to touch me since I already belonged to someone else. I wanted to cry but I couldn’t. It would cloud my judgment as to how I could escape the situation I was in.

When my kidnapper’s hand reached downwards towards my womb, I knew I was in a desperate situation. If this continues, I have to say goodbye to being officially married to Luna. I squirmed and kicked all my might when I suddenly heard the voice that I missed so much telling me to calm down.

I looked at him in amusement. Let’s see how long you can deny about missing me. I rinsed my body then got out of the tub, ignoring Lark. I went out of the bathroom door quietly as if I did not care. I saw Lark in my peripheral vision through the bathroom mirror. He was staring blankly at my back as I left the bathroom.

Since he said that he doesn’t miss me, though I highly doubt that it is the truth, I can just stay somewhere else tonight. I never thought he had this hyprocritical side to him. He was begging me to accept him then now he’s saying he hates me and does not miss me. Is he trying to test me or something?I can stay in other places if he doesn’t want me here.

I just remembered that I actually have a VIP room in Kama where I can stay for the night. It was a perk that I got for being a sponsor or part owner of the place. I was feeling tired, hungry and sleepy but all the sleepiness is gone. I don’t have the energy for this craziness and I’m feeling really annoyed right now. I can also just go around the red light district and come home in the wee hours of the morning to get ready for work. Ugh. With these options running in mind, I left for the red light district.

I looked towards the bathroom door but it seems that he doesn’t want to come out just yet. Once I was ready to go out, I knocked on the bathroom door to remind him that he shouldn’t stay in the tub for too long since he may get sick. He shouted back at me, ”Why do you care?!” I sighed and responded, ”Do what you want.” I teleported to my room in Kama after that.

When I appeared inside my personal room in Kama, the room was dark but it smelled freshly cleaned. It seems that somebody is maintaining the room while I was away. I walked out of my room as if it was any normal day and went stealthily to the staff kitchen. I haven’t cooked food for these guys for more than two weeks.

The place was noisy with music, chatter and laughter of customers and staff. It’s the busiest time for this establishment so everyone’s out entertaining guests. No one has seemed to notice me arriving in the place. Since I am bored and my sleepiness has left me, I decided to cook instead since it may help me relax my mind and emotions.

I stealthily went to the kitchen to check on their ingredient inventory which was surprisingly full and complete. They must have replenished it since they know I will be back from my trip soon. There were no more cooked dishes in the storage so I wonder what they have been eating these past few weeks. I started thinking about what I can prepare in the limited time I have tonight. I might have to tinker with time inside the room a bit to complete all the dishes in the menu I am currently thinking of.

I started with processing the fruits and cutting them into bite-sized pieces. I placed them into single serving sealed cups so it’s ready to eat for anyone who’s craving for it. I also prepared some fresh leafy green salads for these guys that are very conscious with their figures. I also prepared some hard boiled eggs, fried chicken breasts and grilled fish. I made a pot each of three types of soup: forest mushroom, creamy potato and pumpkin soup then placed it in single serving bowls as well. Other things I prepared are freshly squeezed fruit juice, fried dumplings with assorted filling, freshly baked plain bread and sweet bread. There were also a few cakes and pies for dessert, already sliced into single serve pieces.

Just before midnight, I am already done with all the dishes I have thought of preparing. I will just cook some more options by tomorrow morning during my work shift here. As I was exiting the kitchen, I bumped into Galen who was looking down while walking. When he looked up and saw it was me, he suddenly hugged me tight and he whispered, ”I missed you so much.” I caressed his head full of soft hair and answered, ”Me too.” If only the guy at home is as honest as this one.

We walked hand in hand towards my personal quarters while greeting all the guys that we passed by. They all seemed to be genuinely happy to see me. Galen leaned near my ear and whispered, ”They are happy since the food will be amazing again.” I looked at his smiling face and I couldn’t help but laugh at his bluntness. Yeah, I’m the cook of this place so while I was on leave, the others must have tried cooking on their own. They might have not been too successful in making their dishes edible which explains this enthusiasm and happiness upon seeing that I was back.

We continued walking down the hallways until we reached the door in front of the VIP room assigned to me. I opened the door and pulled Galen inside with me. He gasped as I used his body to close the door after we went in. I stared into his eyes as I locked the door. I opened the lights then we walked across the room. I asked him to sit on the bed while I sat on one of the soft chairs in the room.

Galen was looking down on the floor, obviously nervous since his hands are shaking. He was clasping his hands together as if trying to hide his jittery nerves. I was quiet for several minutes which seems to have added into his tension. I am not doing it on purpose though. I am thinking what I should do right now. Meeting Galen in the corridor and bringing him in my room is definitely not part of my plans tonight.

To get rid of the awkwardness, we started with some small talk with how each of us has been over the past few months. I also asked a little about how the business was going. I then gave him a few trinkets I bought from Freyheimr as a souvenir. Lastly, I asked if he was the one maintaining my room in tip-top shape and he nodded shyly.

I told him that he can stay in this room whenever I am away since he cleans it anyways. He shook his head and said that he can only stay here if I am here and I invite him over as part of the rules. I nodded my head in understanding and then I smiled at the guy whose still acting shy whenever I’m around. We have already spent a night together a few weeks ago and he’s still shy around me.

I walked towards him and without warning, gave him a soft kiss on the lips. His eyes were wide in shock and his face flushed red. I then teased him, ”What are you going all shy for? We’ve done everything that could be done between a couple inside the bedroom.” He stayed quiet so I had to ask a question that he can’t avoid, ”Have you been good while I was away? Did you let anyone touch you?”

His head suddenly snapped up to look at my face. He looked scared as he started to stutter, ”I was obedient. I never entertained anyone! I just took cooking, cleaning and waitering jobs. I- I’m only yours, master.” I smiled at him and patted his head, ”Good boy. What reward do you want from me?” With a soft and small voice, he answered , ”Can we do it again?” Did I just get a direct offer from a man to do him? How amusing.
