"Jackson, don't..." Seeing his impatient face, Cherry tried to push him off again. She knew what would come next and she was afraid he might hurt their unborn baby.
He pushed ahead anyway, only stopping to speak as he was ready to enter her. "No, you are my woman. You will listen to me, " he commanded.
"Wait a second, " Cherry pleaded. "Jackson, I need to tell you something first!"
Jackson was losing his patience, but he hesitated when he saw Cherry's pained and reluctant expression. "What is it?" he asked, curious.
"Let go of me, first, " Cherry countered. Uncomfortable with him on top of her, she needed freedom to move.
"No way. What if you run away again?" Jackson objected immediately. 'I can't let my prey slip away, ' he thought.
Cherry couldn't help but burst into laughter, causing Jackson to raise an eyebrow in confusion. "Where could I go at night?" she asked teasingly.
Jackson considered. 'She is right. She can't get away from me, even if she wanted to. I'll listen to what she wants to say then, ' he decided.
He reluctantly got off of her and perched on the edge of the bed. "Say it. It must be something important, or you will see how I punish you later."
Cherry gratefully sat up and scooted till she was beside her husband. "Jackson, do you feel happy now?" she asked meekly. She wrapped one of her arms around his arm and laid her head on his shoulder.
"Of course, I am. I have you by my side. Perhaps our son has the same idea, to be happy with you by our sides, " Jackson replied thoughtfully.
"What if we might have a new family member?" Cherry asked.
Jackson grew confused again. 'What is she saying?'
"What do you mean?" Jackson asked, turning to look at his dear wife.
"Jackson, I'm pregnant, " Cherry
Falling from nobility, Zen Luo became a humble slave and served as a human punchbag for his former cousins. Inadvertently, he found a way to refine himself into a weapon and a legend started because of that. With a strong belief in never surrender, he strove for revenges and pursued big dreams. Warriors from various clans contended for hegemony and the world was stirred. Relying on the body that was comparable to a powerful weapon, Zen beat his numerous enemies on his way to the immortality. Would he succeed eventually?
ay he had disappeared through. 'This is the simple life I long for. To be looked after, spoiled and loved by him like this.'
Soon after, Jackson returned. "Honey, your shower is ready, " he said to her.
"Thank you, Jackson!" She shot him a grateful smile.
"Fool, don't be so formal with me." Jackson walked over to her and lifted her, holding her off the ground against his chest.
"What are you doing?" Cherry cried out, taken aback. 'Didn't he promise me not to touch me? What's going on here?' she wondered.
"I will take you to the bathroom. You're vulnerable. What kind of husband and father would I be if I let you walk such a long way? I will carry you there, " Jackson explained.
"There's no need for that. I can walk myself. It has only been a few months since I got pregnant. I'm not as delicate as you imagine, " Cherry responded. His excessive indulgence caught her by surprise.
"I want to do this for you. I like doting on you like this, " Jackson told her overbearingly.
She blew a short puff of air through her nose in consideration. "Then promise me you'll behave yourself in the bathroom, " she countered.
"Okay, " he grinned. "I promise."
