Esme blinked at the vampire who behaved like everything was just normal to do now. She opened her lips to speak something but by that time, he had already hopped on the bed and made himself comfortable. Dumbfounded, Esme remained unmoved on her spot and kept staring at him blankly.
Aaron secretly swallowed his saliva after being stared by her intensely. He could see her anger arousing up slowly. Unfortunately his life was at stake and he could no longer show his attitude in front him. He wisely shifted on a side and patted the empty space beside him calling,
" Come and sleep. I will watch after you two for the rest of night."
Esme frowned at him dangerously and snorted out coldly upon seeing through his real intention,
" Sleeping here with you? Do you take me as a fool?"
Aaron blinked innocently and replied back,
" No! I was just being polite to give you my space. What are you afraid of? If I really want to do something with you, it's not possible anymore. You should know that."
Aaron blurted out and shifted his eyes on her stomach frustratingly. If only she wasn't at the early stage of her pregnancy, he would have choosen a meticulous way to tame her rage towards him. Esme's face slightly blushed after looking through his eyes. He was literally giving her a hungry look of wolf as if she was kind of delicious food which was forbidden for him.
Esme eventually got a little nervous and glared at him fiercely. Just as she pursued her lips to argue back, Aaron hussed and pointed at sleeping Ayra with a cheeky smile,
" You don't her to wake up, do you?"
Esme paused awkwardly and looked down at Ayra's baby face helplessly. After going through some hesitations, she sighed, slipped out from her slippers and slowly laid down by his side.
When she was too engrossed in taming her wrath, a sinister smile quickly appeared on his lips. He looked down at Ayra gratefully and figured out that this little girl was indeed very useful. Esme laid down on her back towards him numbly and pulled Ayra into her embrace. Tilting her face sideway,she warned in a low muffled voice,
" If you dare to cross your boundaries, I will make sure that you can't visit Dalastia world ever tomorrow."
Aaron's face sank immediately. He barely controlled his urge of kissing her pouted lips and hummed lowly in response. No matter what, at least she was here with him. Thus he dared not to get closer with her anymore and stayed few inches away from her.
As the night became deeper, Esme's breathing slowly turned shallow and steady. Only then, Aaron sighed in relief and leant towards her face.
Under the layer of half darkness,her face was looking exceptionally sparkling as if she was one kind of star who came down on universe to enlighten. Indeed, she was star in his life.
Aaron smiled contendedly at this proximity of them and cautiously left a gentle peck on her forehead. As she didn't show any sign of moving, he siezed the opportunity and left another peck on her plump lips. Then he tugged on Ayra's blankly and whispered in an extremely low voice,
" Goodnight babies."
NEXT MORNING,
Her short eyelashes flattered abruptly while leaning down at the man who had his eyes closed beside her mommy's side. Ayra observed Aaron who was resting with his back leaning against the bed head. Furthermore he was placing his another hand over her mommy's waist. Ayra was curious and a little happy. Since they didn't meet formally, she wasn't aware of Aaron's indentity.
Aaron finally sensed a pair of eyes on him. He pondered closing his eyes off and finally opened up only to be met a pair of round sparkling eyes. Aaron smiled widely at the little girl and greeted lowly while hauling up from the bed,
" Morning, princess. Did you sleep well?"
Ayra was going to interrogate loudly. But after stealing a glimpse of her mommy's sleeping back, she lowered down her voice and asked with curiousity,
" Who are you? Why are you sleeping with us?"
Aaron was impressed at the consideration of Ayra's baby brain. He smiled faintly and felt a little awkward while introducing himself. He bent down a little and picked up the little beauty on his lap. After placing her down comfortably, he answered in a low voice,
" Ummm..I am your uncle first and then your mommy's husband. We haven't gotten the chance to meet before."
Ayra's eyes were slightly dialeted after his introduction. Her little mouth agaped as she exclaimed surprisingly,
" Mommy's husband.. You..you have married my Mommy? O my god! Then she will have to stay with you always. Mommy will again leave Ayra."
She almost brust into tears after knowing that he was her mommy's husband. Her little brain only understood that a girl had to live with her husband once they were married. Aaron panicked instantly and started to cajole her sorrows patiently,
" Oh..no..no.. Don't cry.. Don't cry..Who says that Mommy will leave you? Ayra will also gonna live with us in the future."
Ayra blinked lifting up her miserable eyes and asked again,
" Really?"
Aaron nodded with a smile and assured while patting on her back,
" I promise."
Ayra immediately broke into a smile and asked after pondering a bit,
" Then.. what should I call you?"
Aaron smiled faintly at her silly question and started to consider deeply. Reminding her bond with Esme, he suggested nervously,
" You call my wife ' Mommy ', then what do you think that you should call me?"
Ayra fell in daze and figured out quickly,
" Daddy?"
Aaron's heart melted as soon as she pronounced that word. It was first time that he heard someone calling him Daddy. His happiness couldn't be hidden on his expression as he accepted without thinking twice,
" I would love to hear that."
Ayra beamed excitedly,
" It's settled then. I will call you 'Daddy' from now on."
On the other side, Esme who just woke up and happened to hear their conversation faintly seated up from the bed and mumbled while rubbing her sleepy eyes,
" What nonsense are you two spouting?"
Ayra who couldn't hold back her excitement immediately informed happily,
" Mommy, look I got a Daddy."
Esme almost spatted blood in shocked. She looked up at Aaron speechlessly and growled,
" What.. what did you ask her to call you?"
Aaron explained while playing with Ayra's hands,
" What's so angry about? She calls you Mommy. Then you expect that she should call me 'uncle'? What will people say about our relationship then?"
Esme couldn't rebuke about this fact anymore. Indeed it would sound awkward if Ayra addressed him as her uncle. Coming back to their serious matter, Esme quired pulling down Ayra from his lap,
" When are we going to that place?"
Aaron answered while getting down from the bed and reaching for his coat,
" Tonight. I will be back to pick you up two at late night."
Esme hummed in response and watched him getting prepared to leave. She wanted to ask him for breakfast but their grudges didn't go yet. She dismissed the idea and remained unbothered.
After putting on his clothes, Aaron turned and smiled at Ayra saying,
" Okay Princess, we will hang out tonight. I have works to do now."
Ayra replied with a smile ,
" Okay, Daddy. I will wait for you."
Esme was stunned for a moment. Her daughter resounded like she knew him for a long time. Aaron smiled widely and got closer to plant a kiss on her forehead.
Esme couldn't deny the truth that she actually didn't love their interaction. She watched him kissing Ayra blankly. But suddenly the man pressed his palms on Ayra's eyes. Before she could assert that what was going on, Aaron turned his face and gave her a deep kiss suddenly.
Esme was shocked and stayed numb. Before she could bite him back, he had already gone. Ayra who was stupified at his action asked innocently,
" Mommy,why did Daddy cover my eyes? Where did he go?"
Esme slightly blushed and scooped her up in her arms. She only answered shyly,
" It's nothing. Don't believe his words always, okay? He is an idiot."
•••• LATE NIGHT ••••
After handling his tasks in Vampire World, Aaron returned in Dalastia to bring Ayra and Esme with him for a unknown place. Soon after, they arrived at a distant jungle away from the barrier of Vampire world. The entire jungle was dark even the moonlight wasn't enough to highlight those areas. Except the neon lights of fireflies, nothing couldn't be seen in those darkness.
Esme stayed a bit away from Aaron who was carrying Ayra in his broad arms. Watching her distancing further away from him eventually, he narrowed his eyes before pulling her up towards him.
Startled, Esme found his hands on her waist rubbing sensually. Aaron whispered softly lowering his voice,
" Stay close with me. They don't meet anyone except me. Better you don't trigger their curiousity."
Esme could only obedient and hummed in response. His hand was still on her waist which made her little nervous. Aaron tugged her with him and continued walking towards the jungle.
As they all reached at the centre of jungle, Aaron suddenly spoke in a strange language. Even Esme couldn't understand a bit what was he saying.
As his words came out, Esme gasped softly in horror. Soon after, numerous pairs of dark red eyes started to peer at them from the back of trees ahead. Subconsciously Esme got closer with Aaron whose eyes were expecting someone to arrive patiently.
