21 I'sVE A SECRET AGNES

"Ah ! hi dad."

"How's you my son ?"

The voice was warm and full of love.

"I'm okey. How's you doin' ?"

"Ah ! Just keeping myself intact while living with this bit*h !"

Jairus chuckled. As usual Mr. Ezekiel had a great humour.

"Getting on your nerves, huh ?"

"More than ever. She's a love-thirsty woman. But you know son I can't give her that."

Mr. Michael was still waiting for his first wife, Remora Ezekiel.

He knew she didn't died but is hiding and she must have a solid reason of leaving his loving husband and only son. Don't know why he was bearing his ex as his wife now. Perhaps because she was the mother of his second son.

"Dad actually I..."

He trailed off.

They both were in contact but secretly because of his stepmother Samantha.

The media was informed or they both showed the world that a family clash was going on between father & son, for a distraction. As after sometime people will forget it and everything will fade.

As billionaire they both were a hot topic. But Mr. Ezekiel wanted to protect n hide his son's little secret of being a vampire.

"What is it Jairus ?

Everything okey ?"

He became worried and the current condition was worsening due to the new peace pact.

"Yeah actually dad I....I'm going to be a father !"

"What ?

Are you serious? "

Joy was in his tone but sure he was shocked.

"Yes dad. Her name is Agnes Regena. And you know the child will be half royal vampire blood n half human blood."

"Yes, cut that crap. I know it already. You're also both halves. But I'm happy for you both."

"But dad she doesn't know that I'm a vampire too besides having your human blood."

"Oh I see. Let's settle this matter. I'm coming to meet my daughter- in-law & grandchild. Wait for me I'll handle this."

"But how'd you.....& what about Samantha."

"Ah! forget her. I'm not afraid anymore. When the pact will be signed I'll speak to the world that I'm proud to have such a wonderful son. Who is half human n half vampire."

"Aw dad I love you."

"I love you too son. Yayy I'm excited to be a grandpa !"

"Haha we'll be waiting."

And the call was cut. Both men smiled as it was a new turn in their life.

Will it bring happiness ?

Or hatred ?

-------------

"Agnes honey ?"

Jairus called her from back as she was busy in cutting vegetables. Perhaps she wanted some soup.

"Yes dear."

She answered without facing him and kept on cutting.

"What are you doing here ?

You should've said to me. Now take a side & let me do it."

He snatched the knife, pushed her with the side of his butt and started cutting.

"Aye I can do it myself."

She tried to stop him. And to have the knife.

"No I'll do it for you both."

He step backwards and raise the knife high.

"Aann Jairus I can."

She pouted while folding her arms.

"I WILL !"

He stressed and started again.

Agnes sat on the shelf and placed her hand on tummy.

Jairus stood there watching her and cutting__watching and cutting.

And in between the eye contact he cut his finger.

"Ouch !"

Agnes immediately held his hand in worried expressions.

"I told ya not to do that. Lemme see now."

She pulled his hand for a  closer view. Which Jairus held back at once.

"I'm fine. Just a minor cut. I'll handle it."

He avoided as his cut will be healed at once. What if Agnes will see and freak out at the reality.

"I know you'll. But let me see."

She insisted.

"No I'll do it myself."

Jairus exclaimed in anger and left the kitchen.

Agnes was stunned at his reaction. She stepped off from the shelf & don't know why she look down.

No blood drops !

-------------

The lights were off and the table lamps too. Agnes was trying to sleep but couldn't. She was still thinking about the morning and Jairus' behaviour.

He didn't came home since evening. Just called that he'll be late. Agnes turned over and kept staring at the roof.

Agnes POV:

I didn't knew__ that night would take me this far. I met Jairus, a perfect man. Women's love & known as a player in the circle.

Thousands of girls everyday tries to lure him some for money other for fame. But why he chose me ? I mean when I told him about this child he could've hide the truth. But didn't instead he accepted that he was the one who spend a night with me & the father of this child.

Why, am I that special to him ?

Or he's just doing all this for our_I mean his child. Maybe he knows he's a royal blood and only wants this child. No I can't let him take my child. It's ours not his not mine but ours.

No__no I'm overthinking.

If he thinks like that then why would he discuss about our future. I was in the planning along with our child.

Sure he'll marry me.

He loves me.

But where he is now ?

Agnes sighed. And the door opened slowly. Jairus walked in taking short steps.

He didn't turned on the lights. And Agnes didn't bothered that too. He walked closer to her side and ___

His eyes were glowing red, those of vampires !

At once he looked down, avoided gaze not to frightened Agnes.

She held his hands as stepped out from blanket. And hugged him.

"I've a little secret my love."

He hushed, his voice low and full of despair and disappointment.

"It doesn't matter. As long as we're together."

She freed him from the embrace and scooped his face as Jairus lifted his flashing red eyes.

"Dad will be coming tomorrow. We've so much to share. I hope you'll understand me."

He gave a weak smile.

Agnes knew what he was talking about. But it wasn't confirm whether about him or his relationship with father.

"Sure I'll. And I'm not going to leave you."

Agnes assured him. Jairus placed his hand on her tummy.

"I dearly love you both."

And placed his lips upon hers gently opening them with tongue and rolling in. Jairus pulled her closer by his hands on her hips and squeezing them.

Agnes put her fingers in his hair as Jairus crept his hand into her lingerie and placed on her breast.

The moon goddess blessed the couple while they made passionate love.
