Rome hummed a song under his breath and went straight to the little children playing in the living room. "Hello people!", he greeted happily and grinned at them. Elijah smiled softly at him and Chiara hugged him. "Oh hiii uncle Rome!!!" Rome chuckled and hugged her: "So, I need a favour from you guys." Chiara leaned back and said: "Let me guess, my mobile?" Rome gave out a false shocked gasp and said: "How did you know?" The little girl rolled her eyes: "Because you always ask for it." The vampire laughed and asked innocently: "So, can I?" Chiara grinned evilly at him and whispered in his ear: "You know the payment, uncle Rome." Rome muttered: "Who taught you to bargain like that again?" Chiara simply opened her palm and waited for the chocolate to come. Rome sighed and obediently placed the chocolate in her hand. She grinned as she saw the big chocolate bar. And instantly, her mobile floated to Rome. Both parties were now very satisfied and Rome ruffled her hair before he walked away. 

He really needed to get one of these. And he sat on his bed, using the search engine to look for his party details. He started to type the name of the party and was about to choose the first suggestion appearing on the screen because this was the one he needed. The door of his room opened, startling him and he dropped the phone on the bed. Bright looked at his mate and came to sit besides him. Rome smiled at him and asked: "What's up, darling?" Bright looked at him pensively and said: "Want to go on a trip?" The vampire nodded, very excited: "Where to? And when?" His metamorph grabbed his hand and pulled him on his lap: "I'll arrange for it and tell you when. Somewhere special, only the two of us." Rome whispered: "Ohhhhhhh! That sounds romantic enough!" Bright smiled and hugged him, burying his face into his neck: "It will be. I promise you." Rome chuckled and rubbed his nape: "I believe you."

They stayed like that for a moment and then Bright sighed, leaning back: "Why did I say yes to Arthit when he asked me to be the acting King while he was not here??" Rome pressed his finger on Bright's nose: "Because he is your brother and you love him?" Bright gave out a heavier sigh and finally moved to leave the room to look at the most urgent matters. "Poor darling.", said Rome as he grabbed Chiara's phone again. He blindly looked for his details without checking if they were indeed for the party theme needed. And he got up to do the preparations, clearly not knowing that he was about to do a mistake to be remembered! He hummed as he went to the royal kitchen to give some orders about cakes. A huge cake and so many other cakes too! He laughed as he continued to scroll down and look at the other 'things' needed. Where was he supposed to get this one though? Well, he would have to figure it out. This party would be so unique.

Meanwhile, on the demon planet, Kongpob and Arthit had joined the king and queen for dinner. But no one was eating yet. Arthit stared at the pink milk in front of him and felt his tears roll away on his cheeks. His chin and lips trembled. He then burst out crying, leaning his forehead on the table. Diana sighed and rubbed his back, trying to comfort him. But that simply made Arthit cry harder. Stormee sniffed: "I can't hear him cry, Diane.." Diana replied with another sigh: "I know. Me too. But it's not our fault that he cannot drink his pink milk any longer. Apparently my grandbabies do not like it anymore. Lexi told him that he had to avoid it for the rest of his pregnancy." Stormee sniffed again: "So cruel..the poor boy.." Diana nodded: "Yeah." Kongpob was pacing the floor, muttering: "How is that even possible? Surely we can do something? Should I ask for some spells?" Noah who was watching his son with a smile on his face, walked to him and tapped his shoulder. 

Kongpob turned to look at him and the King said: "You know, that's quite normal. There are things that will taste bad for Arthit during his pregnancy." Slate whined: "But not his favourite pink miiiiiiiiiilllllllllkkkkkkk.........." Kongpob nodded, clenching his fists, getting angry on his soulmate's behalf. Noah sighed and patted his son's shoulder: "You'll have to bear with it." Kongpob looked at his still crying baby and shook his head, his shoulders slumped: "I don't want to.. I don't like it when he cries.." Slate nodded in sync. Diana shared a look with Noah who shrugged. Diana rolled her eyes. Getting up slowly since she was still very sore with pain, she placed her hands gently on Arthit's shoulder and said: "There, there.. Kong baby is going to bring you something yummy to eat, okay? Just ask the thing you want to eat." Arthit raised his head and looked at his soulmate who smiled encouragingly at him.
