Chapter 201: Hearts That Kick in Threes
Months had passed since the burial of Zack—one of the best CEOs in the country. His death was all over the news. Many condolences were sent to Zethan, and even though he didn’t show it, Zack was still his blood. He had truly wanted to make things right... but who knew fate had other plans? Who knew what would have happened if he had visited?
It was discovered that the car’s spike had pierced through his spine—one of the known ways to kill a vampire royal—its tip lodged deeply inside.

Zethan and Lilia were in the car, on their way to the hospital for their baby’s gender reveal.
Lilia, who had been on her phone, gently dropped it and caressed her bump.
"You know, Zethan, you have to be strict with me. I’ve been craving so much, and you’ve given in to all of them. Look at me now—my hands are getting so soft, and I’m gaining a lot of weight," she pouted.
"But how can I resist your beautiful eyes, sweetheart?" he replied.
Lilia rested her head softly on Zethan’s shoulder her cheeks warming softly. These past months had been some of the best she had ever experienced. Even though she occasionally caught a flash of pain in Zethan’s eyes, she knew he hadn’t expected his cousin’s death. But seeing that pain also showed her that her once cold-hearted husband was slowly warming up.
She could never forget the way he constantly surprised her. This—this right here—was the best. She was happy. Her husband was happy. And she was pregnant.
What more could she ask for?
"We’ll be attending Lucas’s wedding next week," Lilia said casually.
