บททั้งหมดของ He Let Our Child Called Bastard: บทที่ 1 - บทที่ 10

"Serene..." Damien called my name, his eyes red, "Do not ever say that word abort before me. You and your child is equally important to me. I'll not let you do anything foolish, okay?"Equally important? How come? The child I was carrying was his, his own blood while the child Lia was carrying belonged to a vampire hunter, yet in his eyes they both were equal.Did he expect me to be happier for considering my child as important as to some bastard child who was not even his?However, before I could react or say something in my child's defense, Damien's mother, Emily walked out of her mansion. A smirk appeared on her face as soon as her gaze landed at me. Her lips twisted as she barked, "What the hell is this slut doing at home?" "How many times do I have to tell you, Damien. Do not bring your bitches at our house." "Mom please..." Damien protested, "I love Serene. So, be polite when talking to her.""Lia is pregnant with your child. Bearing the hier to our lineage and you dare spea

The "safe place" Damien promised became a tomb of silence. The room was a windowless box at the end of the north wing, smelling of damp stone and the metallic tang of the blood bags he left for me every three days.In the beginning, he visited every night. He would stroke my swollen belly and whisper about the future—about the day he would become High Lord and finally bring me out into the light. But as the months bled into one another, his visits grew shorter, then rarer, until they ceased altogether.The clan’s bells chimed frequently, echoing through the vents. Each ring signaled a celebration I wasn’t invited to. Through the thin walls, I heard the servants gossiping in the hallway."Lord Damien took Lady Lia to the Whispering Woods today," one giggled. "He carried her over the stream so she wouldn't tire her feet. He’s so devoted to her and the heir.""The heir," I whispered to the dark walls, clutching my stomach. My baby kicked, a sharp, rhythmic reminder of the life Damien was

The darkness that flooded the hall was not the empty void of a shadow; it was heavy, smelling of salt, ozone, and ancient, crushing depths. My skin, which had begun to blister under the first cruel touch of the sun, was suddenly bathed in a cool, mist-like aura. The searing pain in my stomach ebbed into a dull throb as the very air seemed to thicken, protecting me.Emily and Amelia recoiled, their predatory grace replaced by the frantic twitching of cornered prey."Who goes there?" Emily shrieked, her hand flying to her throat. "This is the High Court of the Pure-Blood Clan! You are trespassing on sacred ground!""Sacred?" The voice that answered was like the groan of a sinking ship.From the gloom, the tallest of the four figures stepped forward. He didn't have the pale, sickly complexion of a vampire. His skin was a shimmering.This was Caspian, my eldest brother.Behind him stood Silas, Kai, and Finn. They didn't need weapons. Their hands were slightly webbed, fingers ending in claw

My brothers strictly refused me to go back to visit Damien's house before leaving the Clan's vault. They had already arranged a private chauffeur for me and a proper funeral at their house, far away from the place that forced him into death.They had more love for the baby they didn't know exist before coming to take me with them than his own father who had caged me inside a dog kennel's size of a room for eight months.But, I need to go back to Damien's room. For once.Not because I had any feelings left for Damien, but because I still had some memories in that tiny room that belonged to my dead son. Since I had nothing to do in that dark room, I used to sew clothes for my baby, weave sweaters and handcrafted accessories for him to wear. I had imagined him wear those things I prepared for him with the only thing I could get at that time. Though he was not anymore in this world, but I couldn't let anyone touch his belongings in that mansion.It would be my first and last gift to my

"I did not mean that, Serene." He quickly explained. "I-I just don't want you to take stress. Y-You look pale. It's not good for our baby. What if-"Only then did his gaze landed on my stomach, the place where used to reside a baby bump that was now missing. His eyes widened in surprise and he almost looked at me in excitement. "You already delivered the child? But, your due date was two weeks later.""Anyways, where is my child? I have brought a lot of gifts for him. New dresses, toys and cribs, everything is as per your taste, Serene.""I also have ordered my men to build a new house for us where the biggest room will be our bedroom. And the next to it, will be our baby's room.""It's the small gift I wanted to gift you when you deliver the baby for me. But, of course, you have given me the best gift, Serene. Just tell me where you have kept our baby. Don't tell me you are keeping the baby in that old room?""No way, Serene!" He whispered before he rushed to the small room he had ke
