The Demon's Bride-Chapter 748: Lovely You-I

Walking back and forward, Leviathan and Satan couldn't sit around and had to busy their body in order to escape from their anxiousness. The men had been locked outside the room and they could only wonder about the hallway, waiting for the baby's cries.

Ian sat down on the chair, appearing to be calm when his feet couldn't stop creating tapping noises that filled the entire hallway.

"Should it take this long?" Satan questioned impatiently.

"Were you not there when I was born?" Leviathan answered sharply and rolled his eyes, "It takes more than five hours, but indeed this is taking a little more time than usual."

"Well well it must be because the child is special," came the fourth voice that wasn't Ian's but Lucifer who appeared out of thin air. His robe swaying around as he stood near the door when Satan grabbed him by his shoulder.

"Where are you thinking of going to?" Satan inquired with his brows arched.

"Inside, to meet my grandnephew," Lucifer answered where Leviathan pulled him at the same time he was about to take another step froward.

"Unless we can enter you couldn't as well," warned Satan.

Ian sighed watching the act of three grown men being so little hearted and petty in such a crucial time. It was then when the silent hallway was filled with a louder cry of a baby that bloomed and brightened everyone's complexion.

Ian didn't take time and disappear from his place, appearing suddenly inside the room where Elise had been for hours. As he rushed inside, the midwife had settled the babies around Elise. She smiled when noticing him who came toward her.

Ian sat on the side of the bed, pushing back her baby hairs that fell slack as they turned wet from the sweats from her forehead and gave her a kiss. 𝑓𝚛𝚎ℯ𝘸𝙚𝘣𝚗𝘰νeƖ.c𝒐𝐦

He then looked at the two baby boys, surprised by the added number to their family as he was only aware of a single baby boy.

"A new addition," Ian whispered, causing Elise to chuckle at his surprised face. "You knew this?" He asked while looking at her slight grin.

"I wasn't sure but I had a feeling. Aunt Esther said that she felt more presence than a single one from me," Elise watched Ian brushing his finger over the baby's face, filling her heart with happiness. It was a long fight to get to the point where now they could live a happy life without a single disturbance from danger and she was glad to finally be able to build a family for Ian.

His expression was more than she expected where she could see the faint trace of tears from the corner of his eyes.

"Thank you, Elise," Ian whispered against her ears. "For being with me and giving miracles to my life."

Elise bring him closer, leaning her head on his shoulder, basking on the joy that only them could feel as a new parents.

Beelzebub and Esther came back four days after. They were surprised by the two boys and had came early to meet Elise and the new children in the castle.

"What are their name?" Esther questioned as she stood beside the wooden crib.

Elise came nearer and placed her hand to her oldest baby boy whose eyes were black in color, "His name is Aleksander and the other one over here is Declan."

Beelzebub who stood near the crib beside Esther narrowed his eyes on Declan, "His eyes, it's both red and golden."

Elise looked at Mr. Beel and broke to a smile, "Blood is hard to predict. What we would pass down to our child is impossible to control but whatever they are, it doesn't change that they are both my sons."

"So he is…?" Esther questioned.

"It is still hard to predict," Ian who had came placed his hand around Elise's waist and spoke, "But it is possible that Aleks only have the blood of a human. Declan's situation is still a bit difficult to determine. It would take six years for us to determine what he could be; whether demon or angel."

"It would be difficult for Declan, children with mix blood would have a painful time when they grow," Beelzebub said and Esther used her elbow to slight jab him, cueing him to stop as she didn't want Elise to stress herself.

Ian and Elise didn't mind it as they were both aware of the hardship for being a mix blood. Ian said, "Mix blood or not, they are our children. It comes without a saying that they are special. They are mine and Elise's child therefore I have no worries of their future. They would be able to overcome it I am sure."

"Of course," Esther answered with a smile. She raised her hand gently over Aleksander when the baby boy's eyes that had been looking at her curved in a smile. "I thought both Satan and Levi would be unable to keep their hands away from Aleks and Declan?"

Elise giggled at this and looked at Ian who proudly said, "I made sure they would only come on a given time when we need help such as during the night. I also made sure they wouldn't argue about one having more time to spend with their grandchildren compared to the other. They are not exactly the right image for a father and son that I could take example from."

"You will be fine I am sure," Elise answered to him, "I will be with you."

"I wonder if our baby would look as adorable as them?" Esther whispered to herself, not knowing she was saying the word aloud. Although she cleared her voice and acted as if she hadn't said anything, her ears had turned bright red, making it impossible shrug it off coolly.

Beelzebub who came near her chuckled, "Of course. Our child would never be lesser than anyone else."

Esther who couldn't bear the embarrassment veered the conversation around, "Did Raziel managed to come?"

Elise looked at Ian before shaking her head, "It's been a while since we see him but I am sure grandfather would come soon."

Ian kept silence. In truth, he had seen when Raziel came to the castle, appearing near the window only to look over the babies from afar. He thought to catch the man once more time and bring her to Elise when the time is right.
