sometimes Althea felt that the lord was exaggerating but when she told him that he gives her a long lecturer making her regret that she spoke in the first place will it"s not only her but everyone was noticing that he is being too protective of her but as Tak.u.ma said no one can blame him
today the lord has left early for an important meeting in the senate he usually send Tak.u.ma but today"s meeting is very important and it requires his presence Althea had heard Tak.u.ma that day that some pureblood vampires saying that the lord has been ignoring has duties and responsibilities Althea knew that her being sick most of the time will affect his responsibilities
" Althea " hearing her friend calling her name she turned around to look at her
" I"m sorry I was thinking about something " Althea apologized
" you look sad these days, you can share anything with me if you want, " Jan said
Althea sighed softly " it"s nothing just thinking about something"s " she smiled trying to hide her sadness
" Alright, I have to go now I will see you tomorrow " Jan bent down whispering to the baby that is inside her " aunty will come and check on you tomorrow be good until then " Althea laughed at her friend childish behaviour
after Jan left Althea took her knitting kit and started knitting she hadn"t realised that the time flow fast that it was already evening time placing everything back to its place she stood up and walked towards the window when she pushed the curtains open she saw the lord walking towards the mansion entrance when he sensed her eyes on him he looked up flashing her a warm smile before he made his way towards the entrance
Althea felt happy that he finally came she had missed him the whole day she knew that she is being selfish but she feels safe when he is beside her
she was about to go and meet him at the stairs but she stopped knowing that he will scold her for not waiting for him she went to sit on the bed when she heard the footsteps getting closer she looked at the door waiting for him to enter
" good evening Althea," the lord said closing the door behind him and walked towards her
" good evening " she replied to see him bend over placing a gentle kiss on her forehead
" How was your day? " the Lord asked as he took off his coat
Althea smiled when she heard his question it should be her who is supposed to ask him this question but he always was who is asking her " as usual " she replied as he sat next to her
" I"m sorry that I didn"t come back earlier " he spoke to her in a gentle voice
" it"s ok " she replied to his words
taking her hand he kissed her palm " I will take a bath then we eat dinner together ok " the lord said she nodded her head
