Inheriting a Lost Bloodline, My First Task is to have heirs?!
Chapter 182 - 182 - Back Home Again

I reappeared inside my room in Sklavryet in just a few seconds. The house is still and quiet. I slowly walked to the next room where Lark was sleeping in. He is currently sleeping soundly as if he did not have any care in the world. To be specific, it seems like he did not care if I came home or not which honestly irritated me for some reason. He must have not believed me when I said that I'll come home next morning at most. I sat on his bed and watched him sleep for a while. I could not help but think about everything this man had gone through because of me. Still, he accompanied me to this foreign place and let me do whatever I wanted. The first and only thing he ever asked of me so far was to "Come back home". It may be a simple favor if somebody hears it but I am sure that it has a deeper meaning for him which is, "It does not matter where you end up in or who you are with, as long as at the end of the day, you will still choose to be with me." I owed him too much and I think that such a simple wish can easily be fulfilled by me. I never slept overnight outside except this one time that I stayed in Gollmortha. It must have been a huge surprise and a scare for him when I said all of that suddenly so to make up to him, I made sure to keep my promise this time.

He seemed to have felt my presence as his body turned around to face the side of the bed where I was seated. Eventually, his eyelashes fluttered and his eyes opened slowly. He stared at me as if he could not believe I was sitting on his bed. He rubbed his eyes as if checking if what he was seeing was an illusion or a dream. I couldn't help but laugh at his antics which made him sit up from the bed quickly. He then crawled towards me and gave me a tight hug. I tapped his back a few times to calm him down then kissed the crown of his head. I whispered to him, "You can sleep more. I am a little hungry so I want to cook something filling and delicious today." Instead of responding, he looked up to my face and then as if remembering something shocking, his eyes suddenly widened. He looked down on himself and realized that he was naked when he hugged me. He did say before that he has a habit of sleeping naked when he's alone so there you have it. He immediately pulled the blanket up to his neck to cover himself and told me in a hurry, "Can you go out first? I will meet you in the kitchen and help you cook in a bit." I raised my eyebrow and said, "You know that I have already seen everything on your body, right?" His face reddened and he answered in an irritated voice, "That's a different situation! Get out of the room, you pervert." I smirked at him and teased, "I'll show you what being a "pervert" means later." I then winked at him while giggling my way out of Lark's bedroom. I heard him scoff at my teasing. I am quite sure he must have rolled his eyes at my back too.

Once I am in the kitchen, I started preparing the ingredients for the dishes I was craving in my head since earlier. After a few minutes, Lark appeared behind me and hugged me which came as a surprise. He was never the clingy type! He looked at what I was preparing while putting his chin on my right shoulder. He did it so naturally as if he did it every single day of his life. I answered him that it would just be some soup, stir fried meat and vegetables and some rice. I thought that him being clingy so suddenly was the most surprising thing today but he did something else that was totally unexpected. I felt him sniff my neck and then place his lips gently on my skin afterwards. I couldn't help but laugh at his sudden attempt to get intimate with me. I then asked him, "What do you want from me this time? What is with all these sudden cheesy and clingy things you're doing?" He nuzzled his face on my shoulder and murmured, "Can't you just let me do it at this time? I am trying to seduce you, alright." I looked back at him and gave his head another kiss. "I was just asking. I did not tell you to stop. Do you think the seduction part is working on me though?" He looked up at my face and pouted. He then released his hug around me and stomped his feet towards the other side of the kitchen. He stayed quiet as he helped me chop the ingredients needed for the rest of the dishes. I smirked secretly and then continued cooking. As for him, he sat on the table with his chin on his hands. He opted to stare at me while I'm cooking. I quickly finished cooking and we ate the filling and yummy brunch together.

He was quiet until the latter half part of the meal when he suddenly asked, "When will it be my turn?" I quickly stopped eating and looked up at him. He was staring at me with a serious face. He has that stance in him that he won't let this topic go until he gets a definitive answer. I smiled at him then looked down to continue eating. He then started calling my name repeatedly to annoy me, a quick change of tactic as I see it. I pretended to ignore him and just continued eating. When he realized it wasn't working, he clicked his tongue in annoyance. The one who is trying to be annoying got annoyed instead! Sometimes, I think I'm doing something wrong. The men I choose are usually prideful, aloof and looked cold but then after knowing me they turn into spoiled brats of some sort. I think I treat them too well!

I stood up and started cleaning the things I used for eating. Afterwards, I walked towards my own room instead of the one we designated as our shared room. I heard hurried footsteps behind me and then someone pulled the hem of my dress. I looked back at him and asked, "What?" I was trying to keep my face cold as much as I can. He then looked at me with tears starting to form in his eyes. He changed his tactic again! This is so funny. He then said as dramatically as he can, "I knew it! You have found someone you like outside. You don't like me at all!" Instead of responding, I held his chin firmly with my right hand and then gave him a hot and torrid kiss on the lips until he became pbreathless. He started tapping my shoulder as a signal for me to stop but I continued for a few more seconds even after he started tapping. Once I released him from my kiss, he was gasping for air with his face flushed. I then smiled at him sweetly and then started walking back to my room again. I told him in passing as I was walking away, "Let me just sleep for a bit then I'll answer your question when I wake up later." He then answered in a soft voice, "Okay."

I went to my room and had a quick shower then decided to sleep. Damn, I'm so tired from setting up the barrier for Marahuyo and then helping them start the building phase of the sanctuary. I then had to do long distance teleportation to keep my promise to this naughty guy who is asking for some bedroom time right off the bat. I am not saying no to him. I just had to recharge to deal with this new request of his thoroughly later.

Lark's POV

I couldn't sleep until the wee hours of the morning. I know that she said that she might come home by tomorrow morning but it is just so hard to calm my mind since I found out that he got some random guy pregnant outside. What if there are others after him? Where does that even put me? I have been wih her for a little over a month now but we still haven't gone to more intimate stuff. The best we did were hugs and kisses. That's not what I want! I wouldn't have come here all alone with her, putting my pride and dignity on the line just to be a decoration in this house! I want to be fully hers. I want to be her man in every sense of the word.

I was so happy when I opened my eyes and I saw her sitting on my bed. She kept her promise to come home by morning! It was such a small thing but I almost cried with joy. I even hugged her since I forgot I was naked as the day I was born. I immediately swallowed my pride and asked her during our meal about when it will be my turn. She looked at me but refused to answer! I want to pinch her with all the frustration I have built up in my being since I met her but I couldn't find it in my conscience to hurt her. Ugh. I'm so stupid and hopeless. I really want to cry now. Did she just leave me in the dining area? Nooooo. I caught up to her and held on to the hem of her clothes. When I asked her again, she gave me a more hopeful answer. I hope I get a favorable answer from her later when she wakes up.
