Chapter 125: A Trip Just For Us
After they agreed not to postpone having a child any longer, Damon finally stopped resisting Charlotte’s offer to help him through his rut cycle.
Since the house was always too crowded with his family members, Damon usually retreated to his private villa, a secluded place nestled between the forest and the mountains, far from the noise and far from curious eyes.
It was the only place where he could endure his rut in peace.
But this time, he didn’t go alone because Charlotte would come with him.
"Auntie Charlotte, where are you going?" asked Haven, her voice full of curiosity as she saw Charlotte and Damon carrying their suitcases.
Charlotte exchanged a quick glance with Vera, who was standing nearby with a knowing smile.
"We’re ... just going on a little trip!" Charlotte said, crouching down to meet Haven’s curious gaze. "We’ve been working so hard lately, so we thought it’d be nice to go somewhere quiet for a while."
"Oh! So it’s a vacation?" Haven’s eyes sparkled with excitement. "Can I go too?"
Charlotte looked toward Vera again, silently asking for help.
"You can’t go with them, sweetheart," Vera said gently as she crouched beside her daughter. "Auntie Charlotte and Uncle Damon really need some time to rest. They won’t be bringing anyone else with them, okay?"
"I promise I won’t be noisy!" Haven pleaded, still trying to convince them.
Even though her expression was almost too adorable to resist, Charlotte had to stay firm.
