Transmigrating from a zombie world to become the mecha kings wife-Chapter 643: A warm welcome
Chapter 643: A warm welcome
It was a fever pitched scream that met Scarlet when she entered the gates of castle in London. The scream of untold happiness was followed by a hug from her mother, or half of a hug since both of them happened to be heavily pregnant which made it nearlyimpossibleto wrap their arms aroundeach other.
"It’s real, Dorian, it’s really real." Mega gasped.
She parted the cloak eagerly so that she could take a closer look at Scarlet’s belly. Then she squealed girlishly, a high pitched scream before trying again for a second hug.
"Oh I need to see it again." She said.
Again, Mega parted Scarlet’s cloak and her wide eyes looked intensely at the belly. The energy she was injecting into her looking attempt would have had her x-ray the belly if she could.
"Have you been taking prenatal vitamins? And exercises, that Lazima staff? How could you travel abruptly even though you knew about your condition?
You are so careless. I am going to put you under planet arrest for the rest of the pregnancy." Her mother complained, squealed and touched the belly.
Scarlet could not see an end to this squeal and check routine game her mother was playing. If she didn’t put an end to it they would not be leaving the main gate lobby where she had been ambushed them. fгeewebnovёl.com
But, she had missed her mother and she did want a hug, so she pulled Mega into her own embrace as much as she could. She took a deep breath and said, "Mother, its Lamaze, not lazima."
She didn’t add it to her correction but spiritual babies did not really need prenatal vitamins. Lythia’s concoctions were taking care of all the nutrients she and the children needed.
Standing three steps away from them, Dorian finally got tired of waiting for his turn to get in a hug. He also wanted to see Scarlet’s pregnant belly. They didn’t see her when she was pregnant with Justin. She showed up with a fully formed baby. As the first of their children to have her own children, they wanted to be part of every step. To help, advice and share their own experiences. He was just as excited as his wife but he didn’t want to squeal in front of the guards and servants.
"Okay, where is my hug? He stepped up to them and said.
Scarlet let go of her mother and looked at her father who always had a warm ready smile for her. She had thought of him often when she was on Vi-Poral. He would have loved it there.
"Dad." She sidled up to him and hugged him from the side. "I missed you."
Mega rolled her eyes. She had not been told that she had been missed. She also had many questions about Scarlet’s eyes and her hair. What the heck had she done to herself when she was gone?
They never once commented on the hideous green flame tattoo on her back but the green hair and green eye.
Isn’t she the same person that said green was the color of envy and jealousy? It really wasn’t auspicious.
"Dad, how have you been? Has mother been giving you a hard time?" Scarlet was heard asking.
Dorian chuckled and nodded.
Mega glared at father and daughter. Who had been giving who a hard time here? She was the one having a hard time with a pregnancy, a missing daughter and having to run three castles and their restaurants and other businesses.
"I noticed that she is not crying. What did I miss?" Scarlet asked her father.
Dorian was patting Scarlet’s head gently, an undeniable look of affection and adoration was heavy in his eyes. This witty banter and teasing where he and Scarlet ganged up on Mega, he had missed greatly.
"The doctors found a mood stabilizing medication for her. She doesn’t cry easily now. You have no idea how relived the servants are. For most, this is their first time dealing with your mother in this state.
They used to be terrified to talk to her. One mention of your name would make her break down after you left. She didn’t just cry buckets, it was a whole damn river."
Scarlet looked at her mother and giggled. "Aww." She cooed.
Mega refused to look at father and daughter. She squatted down and scratched Severus behind the ears.
"Who is a good boy? I am sure you missed me, right? I missed you too and I have personally roasted two of those sheep you love so much.
Do you want them? They are in my kitchen....."
Severus took off before Mega could complete what she was saying. He was so fast that he took one leap and he was gone.
"Jeez, what did you do to that dog? He is suddenly faster than a space ship." Her mother yelled.
"I didn’t do anything, he has always been fast." Scarlet replied.
"What about you? What did you do to yourself? Why are you...." Mega’s hands gestured at Scarlet’s hair and eyes. "Is this a trendy look on one of those planets were you visited?"
"It’s cool, right?" Scarlet replied.
Dorian led Scarlet away from the lobby and Mega attached herself to Scarlet’s other side. The servants that had followed them fell in line, very orderly. Inclusive were Scarlet’s maids who were very excited that their lady had returned and the rumors about her pregnancy were true.
Even though the announcement had come from the royal family, many didn’t believe it and wanted to see if in person.
They walked at a moderate pace and branched off to the temple first where Scarlet lit some incense. Most of the deities she was thanking were the ones who were standing on her side. Whatever their reason was, they were allies for the moment and this was the least she could do.
Later, she would offer them all some good food.
From the temple, her parents led her to their wing, not allowing her go on her own to hers.
"Mother, by the way, has he returned?" She asked.
Mega first looked puzzled momentarily, probably because of Scarlet’s lack of proper identification of the ’he’ she spoke of.
"Your husband?" Her father questioned more than stated.
"Yes." She answered.
She didn’t know what name to use anymore, Esong or Nyx. All this while, she had been calling him Esong and yet there was much more to him. Of course, she could not call him Nyx right now because it would only confuse everyone.
She was very calm when she asked of him. After merging with the flame and her soul, she could now allow in the occasional slip of thoughts about him without feeling the need to torch everything. Not that it meant the deception was forgiven.
She needed to have a conversation with the reaper that had wantonly been possessing her husband’s body as he pleased.
What he had done, unless necessary was a violation. It felt as if she and Esong had both been somehow used.
Her parents shared a look and then they sighed. They had both been expecting this to come up but they were hopeful that maybe it would not be so soon. There was no news about Esong, nothing at all, nobody seemed to know where he was.
He had vanished and only Folsom heard from him occasionally.
Mega and Dorian did not know how this would affect Scarlet in her condition.
