Chapter 69 - Im talking now (2/2)
”And would you stop worrying about it. It won't do you good if you go against gramps. He helped me back then when i thought the world consist of darkness. So, stop blaming him. You too Ralph. I'm fine.” She dragged the last word and sending warning to Ralph who still wanted to argue with her.
Tristan only stay quiet. As for others, they started to lighten up and making the couple's home like their own. Some were hunting and cooking inside the kitchen while the other half went to find a place to sleep. Having to stay awake for that meeting and dealing with the sudden info that they just received has really tired them out. The only people that are left in the living room are Duke Cullen, Ralph and the couple.
Alicia sighed.
”I fear someone survive from that time. After going through all the info that i manage to hacked, there's something else besides that deadly weapon. It's someone from that 'lab'. They still planning on finding the perfect vessel to create their deadly army. And i think they are looking for me.”
The moment she finished her point, all three of them changes their faces. Tristan start exuding a deadly aura that made everyone in the house shivers and stopped everything they do. Even those who are asleep woke up with a start. Ralph whom always known to be the most patience and calm also exerting his anger. While Duke Cullen clench his fist tightly and his eyes turn sharp looking like someone who's about to be a Death God.
”Are you sure?” Tristan try to asked softly despite having to gritted his teeth trying to hold in his temper.
Alicia look towards him and hold his hand trying to soothe his temper.
”I know because of the formula that i found. And they were trying to search for me. If i weren't pregnant with our babies, i can protect myself. But...”
”The answer is still no. And you know that. Do you think that i will let you in the state of half dead while trying to fight them? I won't allow it, Alicia.” This is the first time Tristan uses her name after they got married. He would always call her with every endearment that he could think of but never her name. It only shows that he was angry.
”Hubby,,,”
”I'm not going to listen to any of this. No more talking about this.” With that, Tristan left the living and went out before slamming the door with a bang. Alicia was stunned and at the same time she was hurt. That's not what she meant. She wasn't thinking of putting herself in danger and risking the new life in her. After the last time she went berserk, she knew there's a limit to it. And she's about to reach those limit. She realized when her bones took a longer time to heal the last time she went berserk. She knows it will eventually harm the babies in her. She doesn't want that. Not when she married him. Not when she haven't live her life together with him for a long time. She gripped her palms tighter and stood up. Seeing Tristan's angry back made her heart lurched out to him. She knows he cares but this is something that he really should know.
”Tristan, i won't harm our babies. I won't harm myself. Because i think i am at my limit already. The drug in my body has harm me more than i imagine. So, please Tristan. Don't walk away now without listening to me properly. You wanted me to talk. I'm talking now.”
