The Lycan King

Avalyn

"Let me introduce you both to your new family." I smiled at both of them and then looked at Sofiya, Vladimir, Dimitri and Andrei who had welcoming smiles on their faces. When Nikolai had informed them that Adrian and Vanessa would be living here now, they were all shocked. If I were in their place than I would have been too, it's was not everyday you saw the big bad wolf taking in children.

"That's uncle Vladimir and aunt Sofiya, then this his uncle Dimitri and uncle Andrei." I introduced them. And as expected, both of them were too shy to say anything except flashing smiles towards the person I introduced.

"And what's the name of her child?" Adrian frowned as he pointed at Sofiya.

Sofiya frowned back and looked down to her stomach, her hand coming over her belly. "I told you I look fat in this dress." She grumbled to Vladimir and elbowed him in his stomach to which his winced. "Dammit woman."

"She isn't pregnant Adrian." I bit back my smile at the couple's banter.

"But she is." He frowned and took small steps towards Sofiya as narrowed his eyes at her stomach. "I can feel the heat of the foetus, hear the heart beat and smell her too."

"Nessa?" He turned towards Vanessa.

"Yeah, she is a vampiwe." She whispered. Her eyes rounded??as if she was just said something wrong. Then after a few seconds, Adrian came besides Vanessa and clutched her hand in his. It seemed like they were talking through the mind-link.

Sofiya was in shock and if I looked closely, I could spot a tear in Vladimir's eye. "Is it true?" He whispered.

"I don't know, we have to go to the doctor." She mumbled. "I'll see you all later." She caught Vladimir's hand and rushed out with him.

"Do you both want to go see the beach?" Dimitri grinned at the kids. They smiled back and nodded eagerly. I am sure he was going to do his best to gain the position of their favourite uncle.

"They are special." Andrei settled on the couch.

"It seems so." Nikolai seemed deep in thought.

"Alpha, these is something that needs to be discussed." Andrei said, clearly indicating there was work needed to be done.

"You carry on with your work, I'm making dinner tonight." I popped a kiss on his cheek and waved a goodbye to Andrei before going to the kitchen.

I decided to cook?Solyanka Soup?with Georgian bread, Shashlik, Knish?and?Ptichye Moloko cake-Nikolai's favourite.

Sasha and Irina were cutting vegetables when I entered. They both smiled at me. "Good evening Luna."

It hand been a while since I had seen them. They were in their usual uniform of a black dress with a wide neckline. They had their hair tied up too. Which I guess was easy access for when Vladimir needed to feed. The only difference was the black leather collar around their necks. Nikolai had informed me that he had ordered them to put it on again to remind them their true place. He didn't want the cake incident to repeat.

"Good evening to you too." I rounded the counter and opened the fridge. I wasn't going to behave differently to them only because I knew they were slaves now. All the ingredients I needed were there except pork and gelatine.

"Irina, can you get someone to buy pork, gelatine and Georgian bread right now?" I asked her as I removed all the ingredients I needed to cook. After the incident had happened, I had only cooked breakfast. I cooked dinner a couple of times but this setting still felt familiar.

"Yes, of course Luna." She said and made a call.
