Rebirth Of The Duke's Daughter

Chapter 135

"What is this favor that you ask for?" Noah was quite curious about what Mila did this time for making ZH [Ambrose] ask them for a favor. 'This is rather rare to witness.'

"I want you both to protect your future empress and the next future prince or princess. Make sure that nothing happens to them while I am away." ZH said with Noah and Theo calm at first about protecting Mila.

"We will surely... wha-?!?!" Theo was about to burst out yelling when Noah luckily clamped his mouth shut with his palm.

"Don't be too loud!" Noah said, hushing Theo to not be too reckless and wake up Mila who was sound asleep in bed. "We will do our best, your highness." Noah kept his calm posture seeing how ZH was only looking out for his beloved growing family.

'I'll also be asking for your help. Do not let anything happen to them if I command you all to do so.' ZH said inside, connecting to his beasts who all knew about it.

[We will.] They all said at the same time knowing that they had to protect their master's child.

[Never would I have thought that you would have a child by now.] Lucia said chuckling after knowing that his master was quite careless for being unable to resist the urge of a woman. [Makes me wonder how you and your parents met.] Lucia chuckled once more, making ZH annoyed that he had such a beast.

'Makes me wonder how you ended up stuck with someone like me.' ZH made it seem like Lucia had stooped down low for choosing who his master was.

[Are you trying to challenge me right now?] Lucia could tell that they were both going to get at one another's throat.

'Who knows.' ZH then stopped the conversation there, he needed to move on to the next plan in action.

*Ba-dump Ba-dump*

Waking up, Luke had just felt the heartbeat and aura which was far too similar to his beloved woman. 'It's that feeling again.' Knowing that it was getting more and stronger than it used to be. "Eulalius."

"You called, your highness?" Eulalius appeared out of the dark looking at his young lord who looked to be struggling just a bit.

"Just now, I sensed her again, but it's stronger this time." Luke was not going to doubt it this time, it was getting too close as though there was fear behind the sign.

Eulalius looked to his young demon lord who had a sharper sense than most living beings did. "Do you think she is close by?" Eulalius was willing to help his young lord in finding his beloved woman.

"No, she can't be. It is still very faint at the moment, but I also feel like she isn't truly born yet. It's like she is still dormant of some sort." Luke held his head looking out to the window, the night was still long with no sign of the sun coming yet. 'I will find you no matter how long it takes.'

'Your highness, seeing you suffer alone trying to find her is like a toll on you. After all, she is still my sister and will always be there for my sister. Even if it is her new life, I will do my best to protect her.' Eulalius felt terrible that he couldn't do anything back then to save her, but Luke was the one who felt more guilt since they had a harder path for their love.

Mila woke up seeing that ZH already left before the sun came up, she expected him to be gone by this time though. Getting up, she saw a note written for her left on the desk in her room to read.

'Take care of yourself and our child. Do not do anything reckless while I am gone. Once I end the matters with the Mana Hunters and Mireraweth kingdom's emperor then we can finally be together.' - ZH
