* 1st Chapter Of Mass Release Event *
_WHITE CASTLE_
The reunion of Chole Family brought joy and happiness amidst the family members who could finally forget about Edward's unexpected death by looking at Ayra's face deeply. When Esme finally paid attention on their surrounding, she noticed that Queen Melinda had departed from their side. She sighed heavily and didn't know whether to approach her or not.
Later at that afternoon, they all were spending time together happily in their living room. Evan was playing with Ayra over the bed whilst Esme, Athena and Ethan chatted beside the bedpost. During the presence of Ethan, Athena didn't dare to mention Aaron's matter but she deeply hoped that Esme would think twice before leaving Aaron permanently.
Esme asked with a playful smile to the couple,
" So when are you two getting married?"
Athena rolled her eyes back at that question. He didn't even ask her hands and already annouced to the world that they would be getting married soon. Ethan stole a glimpse of Athena's puffed face and smirked cunningly. To keep the surprise folding inside his stomach, he spoke smiling widely,
" Very soon! Probably at the end of this month."
Esme shook her head helplessly at her brother's impatience and asked with worry in her tongue,
" But what about Katherine? What happened exactly?"
Ethan growled beastly,
" Don't talk about her! God knows whose child she is carrying in. That day suddenly she said in front of the whole courtroom that we had an one-night stand that caused her getting pregnant."
Esme furrowed hardly and could assume that Katherine had definitely some tricks in her sleeves. Evan interrupted playing with Ayra's doll,
" I caught her red-handed on a day when second brother was drunk and she was trying to throw herself onto him intentionally. Though I managed to save brother, I still had no solid proofs to disclose her real intentions. Second brother had been drinking too much during the days of his breakup. Katherine can pick up any stories to cook upon choosing any days."
Ethan nodded with a long sigh and replied helplessly,
" The healer has said that we can't distinguish the child's biological father untill she or he is born. But Athena seems to have a way."
Athena answered unfolding her arms and walked over Ayra elegantly,
" I am not sure about that either. I still do have to testify it personally tonight. If it works successfully, we can really find out before the child's birth that whether she was carrying Ethan's child or not."
Ethan protested unhappily,
" What do you mean by that? The child is absolutely not mine. I would have remembered if I have fucked someone so crazily that she got pregnant with one shot. Huh! "
Esme hissed at her brother's words annoyingly and cursed loudly. Athena glared at him fiercely and warned while picking up Ayra on her lap,
" Pay attention to your words! There's a child with us."
Ethan scratched his nose awkwardly and mumbled,
" Sorry, I forgot."
Ayra who had no idea about their topic looked up at Athena blankly and complimented sincerely,
" Aunty, you are so pretty like Mommy."
Athena smiled lovingly and gave her a kiss. Esme who remembered that Ayra wasn't officially introduced with her mother walked on their side. Crunching down in front of Ayra, she persuaded Ayra in a soothing tone,
" Baby, I want to tell you something. This aunty is also your mother. You can call her Mommy like me. You hear me?"
Ayra blinked innocently before looking up at Athena who was dying in anticipation. Ayra hesitated for a while before proposing consideringly,
" But if I call her Mommy too, won't it mixup you two? Ummm..how about I call her Mother and I will call you Mommy?"
Athena accepted without any delay,
" It's fine baby. You can call me Mother,Mom or whatever you want."
Ayra clapped happily and chriped excitedly,
" That's settled then. From today, I will have Mommy and Mother both."
Esme smiled back at her with relief. She really thought that Ayra wouldn't be convinced so easily. But it seemed like she could no longer had to worry about that. She was comfortable in calling Athena 'Mother.'
Ethan smiled at them overwhelmingly. Finally he had each happiness that he wished to get in his life. They all chatted for a long time untill the door was brust open and Siemus appeared out from nowhere.
Standing on the doorway, Siemus sighed in relief when she noticed Athena safe and sound. When she received Athena's command, her first thought was that perhaps she was in danger. Respecting the each prominent figures with a low bow, Siemus asked walking over to Athena,
" My lady..this is..."
Athena introduced with a warm smile playing on her lips,
" My daughter!"
Then she looked down at Ayra who was engrossed in inspecting her gown and said,
" Baby, Say hello to your Aunt."
Ayra glanced up at Siemus whose heart melted upon knowing that this was the child of Athena.Siemus, the cold blooded Raibon Vampire finally showed an emotion in her expression. She choked pressing her lips together and exclaimed surprisingly,
" O my god! This baby was actually yours. But when I met her in the past, Mr.Ron said that this child belongs to lady Esme."
Athena answered plainly,
" This was all because they were safeguarding her from my mother and their step brother. They both wanted her dying."
Siemus narrowed her gaze dangerously, reached out to touch Ayra's baby cheeks and growled angrily,
" Let them come on! I will see who can touch her in presence of me."
Athena returned her gratitude with a smile and replied while tugging on Ayra's hairs,
" No need now! My baby has many people to protect her now."
Amidst their conversation, Esme attention fell on Anna who was nowhere to be seen. She excused herself from there after saying,
" I haven't chatted with Anna properly yet. You guys go on chatting. I have to find Anna."
Esme departed after saying that and started to look for Anna in the White Castle.
•••••••••••••••••
After leaving Ayra under the care of Siemus, Athena headed for her living room in the evening. Forgot to lock the door, she was freaked out when someone embraced her waist from back. Soon after familiar fragment started to travel inside her nostrils as she growled at the culprit unhappily,
" Ethan! We haven't gotten married yet. How come you enter in my room so casually?"
Ethan whose head was buried inside her neck from behind and was nibbling her skin lightly groaned domineeringly,
" Simply because I am the king."
Athena snorted struggling to break free from his cage,
" Narcissistic! Behave yourself! Someone can find us together. It's already very embarrasing now."
Ethan didn't heed her words anymore. He simply turned her around and leant down to seal her luscious lips. Athena immediately dodged turning her face side way and coaxed while placing her hand on his chest lovingly,
" No, we need to talk."
Ethan paused abruptly and asked narrowing his gaze for being interrupted,
" What's more do you want? I have given you everything."
Athena sighed trying to keep her tone softer as much as possible and asked Ethan lightly,
" I want to talk about Esme. You should have annouced her marriage with Ron without hearing her opinion."
Ethan's face sullened as he inquired between his gritted teeth,
" Is it because of your ruthless brother who had caused her so much heartbreaks?"
Athena didn't show any anger. She knew that anyone would have reacted that way if they knew that his sister had been tricked to get married. Athena shook her head denying the fact and coaxed Ethan patiently,
" I am not taking anyone's side, Ethan. But you are insisting on staying in blind. Why can't you see that Esme is equally heartbroken after leaving my brother? Except tricking her to get married, did you see any more painful memories that they had in Vampire World? No, isn't it? It's simply because my brother also loves her very much. They both need to talk openly."
Ethan looked cold as he growled lowly,
" But Ron can also love him. I have seen his sincere feelings towards Serena."
Athena got a little angry as she questioned folding her arms,
" How much you know my brother? What if he loves her more than Ron?"
Ethan lowered his eyes down and asked relentlessly,
" Then.. what do you suggest?"
Athena finally smiled in relief and requested,
" Let Esme decides whatever she wants to do with her life. Don't interfere in her happiness. She is no longer your little sister."
Ethan mumbled realising that he had gone a little overboard this time,
" I understand.. Let's enjoy our time."
Athena was stupified. Before she could assert his last words, her lips were sealed with a pair of cold lips hungrily.
