Madness
Chapter 63

That night, Nate and Lin had dinner together for the first time since they got married. Usually, the two will go through the day by just hugging each other before going to the office and also when meeting at home.

Her husband did not have a great need to eat human food, making Lin try to adjust his lifestyle. The woman will eat when she is alone and when her husband has not come home.

The first time they ate together, made Lin very happy. She looked at the look of her husband enjoying the food she was serving, making the woman satisfied.

After drinking the clear liquid from his glass, Lin placed his tall glass slowly onto the table. Her husband did the same when he saw that his wife was ready to start their conversation.

"So, what do you want to tell me Lin?"

Her husband asked gently, and slowly rubbed Lin's hand cupped on the table. The man's fingers were strong, squeezing his wife's tiny fingers.

Slowly, Lin let go of his hand and grabbed something from under the table. The woman held out something to her husband with a pounding heart.

"I want to tell you about this."

Slowly, Lin's hand lifted from the object he was holding and showed a small photo.

Lin looked at her husband's wrinkled forehead. The man looked completely clueless about the thing he was talking about, making the woman even more nervous.

Nate's hand finally grabbed the photo and looked at it. He still hasn't said anything. The man looked at his wife with a confused look.

"I still don't understand. What is this, Lin?"

Both of his wife's cheeks look pretty red. Nate's heart was also pounding, when he could feel the feeling of his wife overflowing.

"I'm pregnant, Nate. It's 8 weeks."

Flashback 2 weeks ago.

When Nate and Marcus finished talking to his father, the three men decided to speak outside the bedroom. Lin chose to re-enter and accompany her father instead of listening to the men outside.

"Lin, come here."

Hearing his father's hoarse voice, Lin approached Johan who was lying quite weak on the bed.

After his encounter with Nate and Marcus, the old man's condition seemed to get worse. And Lin knew that his condition would get worse with each passing day.

"Please help me to sit down, Lin."

Carefully, Lin arranged her father's pillow and helped the old man to lean comfortably in his position.

"Thank you..."

Johan grabbed her daughter's hand and held it tightly. Suddenly, the old man's forehead wrinkled deeply as he held his son's hand.

One of Johan's hands held onto Lin's stomach, making the woman a little surprised.

"Dad?"

"Shut up a minute."

The old man closed his eyes and seemed to be concentrating on what he was doing. When he opened his eyes again, he seemed to take a deep breath.

"For the creator of all the universe..." Johan's voice sounded soft and astonished.

His father looked at his daughter with a questioning look. His voice was slightly choked and trembling.

"Lins. What are you feeling right now?"

The question confused Lin. His eyes were staring at his father.

"Felt? What, I should feel?"

"My daughter. Do you really not know what is going on in your body?"

Lin's face slowly paled. He started thinking horrible things in his mind.

"What do you mean, dad? I'm really freaking me out right now."

Johan's fingers squeezed the hand of his son in his lap.

"You're pregnant, Lin. You are pregnant with a child at this time. Are you not conscious at all?"

The words from his father sounded like a bolt of lightning in broad daylight to Lin. The woman was completely shocked, making her body freeze and started shaking uncontrollably.

Seeing her daughter in shock, Johan was very worried. She held her child's shoulder and squeezed it a little.

"Lins. Lin's. Be calm. Please sit down."

Slightly difficult to breathe, Lin finally grabbed the waiting chair near the bed and sat on it. He held onto his chest which was currently pounding fast.

A little quiet, he turned his head to his father who was still looking at him anxiously.

"Dad. Are you joking at the moment? Not funny at all. I-"

"Dad's not kidding at all, Lin. Especially for this one. You really don't know if you're pregnant right now?"

Lin's two eyes turned red, and the woman slowly shook her head.

"No. I don't know at all. But, that can't be dad."

"Did you guys have a relationship, Nate ever use security?"

Her daughter closed her face in frustration. His face began to turn red, and his feelings were completely jumbled at this moment.

"We never use safety. I also felt that we would never have children. My administration stopped 10 years ago, so I feel like I never needed any security or anything for as long as we were in touch."

"Have you never talked about this possibility at all?"

Lin took her breath in and her voice sounded trembling.

The woman formed a fist from both her hands and focused her head there.

"I am also a human descendant of a V, who will absolutely never be able to have any offspring during his lifetime."

Finally, Lin's eyes let out tears. Either tears of sadness or happiness. His head turned to look at Johan who was still staring at him intensely.

"What's really going on, dad?"

Johan's head shook slowly. "Dad doesn't know, Lin."

"What should I do, father? How about this fetus-"

Lin was not until the heart told his future son, let alone the candidate came from the seed of the man he loved so much. His hands were raised and stroking his stomach gently.

"Do you really feel nothing?"

Her daughter shook her head in frustration.

"There was absolutely no change I felt. Everything is normal."

For a moment both were silent. Johan finally took a breath back and looked at his daughter. The old man patted the place next to his bed.

"Come here, Lin."

Slightly trembling, Lin finally walked over and sat down beside his father. The old man's hands hugged his son's waist and stroked his stomach.

"Here, is growing father's grandson."

His father's words made Lin turn to Johan. The old man looked at his daughter with a smile.

Johan grabbed his two children's hands and held them.

"Lins. I'm sure you know very well the risk of having a child from the V family. And I'm sure you know what the punishment is for your husband if anything happens to you because of this. But-"

The old man looked at his son's delicate and tender hands. He lifted his head and looked at his son with a firm radiance.

"This is your decision. You have become lawful husbands and have been bound, both from the eyes of human law and Vite law. There would be nothing the other Masters could do if this decision concerned a mutual decision between life partners. You should know that."

Both of his father's eyes began to glaze over. The old man was as confused as his son but only thought about the possibility of having grandchildren, making Johan more passionate to live.

"If you decide to keep this child then the father's message, take good care of yourself and there will be a possibility, you need a lot of blood intake directly. This is what I want to talk about more deeply, with you now."

Back to the present.

"Nate?"

Lin called her husband, as the man looked still glued to his seat while looking at the photo he had in his hand. The man's face paled as information from his wife slowly, starting to enter his brain.

"No." Nate's voice sounded stiff as the man finally spoke.

Lin's eyes blinked quickly. "Nate?"

Her husband's hand placed the photo on the table with a slight slam. The woman froze as she looked at her husband's cold expression as he looked at her.

He looked like a different man, from the one who had just smiled warmly at him.

"Evictimize that stuff, Lin. He can't be left alive."

Both of Lin's eyes glared at her husband's words which sounded extremely cold and unfeeling. Unable to arrest her, the woman stood up from her seat violently until she rolled over the chair behind her.

"Nate!?"

Lin's body trembled violently. He clenched both his hands as he looked at Nate who was still sitting, only looking at him with a cold and stiff expression.

"Nate. You're not seriously saying it, are you?"

Just this time around knowing the man, Lin saw Nate's gray eyes glow horribly. The man looked like he was not human when he looked at him with his eyes that were almost white, with black pupils that looked protruding.

"I'm not kidding at all. Drop the contents, or my own hands will."

Lin's eyes looked at the man with nanar. How could Nate ever say that to his own future son? Will he kill her with his own hands?

Without realizing it, Lin's eyes shed tears of anger and disappointment at this man she had loved.

"I really hate you, Nathanael Axelle."

After saying that, Lin walked into the bedroom and slammed the door tightly. She was very disappointed in her husband at this time.

After his wife went into the bedroom, the man held his head which was very painful. Sorting his temple, Nate glanced at the small photo still lying on the dining table.

His hands trembled slightly as he grabbed her and looked back at her.

Although he did not understand at all the images in the USG photo, but Nate knew that it was a photo of his future son.

The man's eyes were watery. His feelings were completely unsettled at this moment.

Early on hearing the news of his wife's pregnancy, he felt a very strong sense of happiness in his heart. But once you realize what that means, that happiness is extinguished and replaced by a great fear.

During his life as a V, the man had accepted that he would never get offspring. And never thought he would get that chance from his relationship with his wife.

Nate held the photo trembling and placed it back on the table. His hands closed both of his eyes which began to drain water in one of the corners.

Currently, Nate feels that he has become a very bad parent to his son. He also felt like a husband who had failed to protect his wife.

But now, for the man the most important thing was Lin's safety. His wife was the only person he ever loved and had in his life.

If he lost his wife, Nate chose never to live again.

He would still abort his future son, if it could save Lin's life. His wife will hate him until he dies.
