610 The Lan's are men of honour

Erik stroked his hair tenderly, letting Alan enjoy this moment, because after the shock of this news, the almost panic-stricken fear he had felt a little earlier on learning that he was pregnant had finally given way to excitement, and so much the better.

In the end, Axel's words, and the fact that a Goddess, as well as Miguel and Elias, were watching over him, had managed to comfort him and he seemed really happy now. n0vElusb.C0m

So to answer his last question, as he still couldn't feel their baby moving inside him, he simply shook his head before telling him everything he'd learned: "Esme told me that our baby was already two weeks old.

She gave me some potions to take against nausea and she told me that the contractions I was feeling should fade quickly as they were due to this morning's battle where we both used up too much energy.

She told me it was a normal reaction and that our baby was safe."

As Alan was listening to him, he continued: "She also told me that she will come once a week to check if everything is okay and she will be the one who will help me to give birth to our baby, since it is the first time that a Warrior Spirit is pregnant she prefers to assist us herself... So next time don't just apologize to her, thank her too, for taking care of our baby."

Alan smiled then to reassure him, and he said: "Don't worry, I will, I promise... Otherwise, what did she say about your training or doing extra activities with your oh so irresistible husband, who has an insatiable appetite."

Erik then took his chin and looked into his eyes before saying: "A Husband... I think that sounds rather nice..."

Erik then crushed his lips on his and Alan responded eagerly to his kiss, his hand still stroking his belly tenderly.

When Erik released him because he hadn't answered his questions yet, Alan said, before Erik could tell him more about his pregnancy: "Marry me, Erik... I wasn't going to ask you like this, but I've been thinking about it for a while... Marry me... The arrival of the baby may have precipitated my demand, but believe me, I had no intention of waiting until the end of your studies to propose to you... I always intended to marry you, the Lan's are men of honor after all, and now that Kelan is married to Caleb and Nolan to Ashton thanks to their Mark of the Union, we're the only ones who haven't made our union official... Even my dad is married to Phil now."

Erik smiled and said to him: "Of course I want to marry you, you are the only man who ever counted for me."

After kissing him, Erik added: "Let's get married before the baby's born and before this war starts... I want all of our friends to be there."

Erik was hesitating to say that last sentence, but he knew that Alan was also aware that this time, they might not all come back from this battle.

So when Alan nodded and promised that he would take care of organizing everything, he finally said, because the weight of what his words implied had really broken their mood of happiness: "To get back to our baby... Esme told me that he should be born in two or two and a half months, and she said that I could carry on training as normal, and that I'd be able to take part in the war without any problems."

When he saw Alan frowning, ready to forbid him to go and fight, he put a finger on his lips to prevent him from voice his disagreement and he told him: "Don't even try to stop me from taking part in the war.

There's no way you're going out there without me and that's not negotiable.

Esme told me that we just have to make sure that both our energy reserves are never depleted, and otherwise, as she told me that I could train normally and that taking part in the war was not a problem for me, I suppose that there's no reason why I shouldn't be able to satisfy my future husband's needs... Right?"

Alan then said to him: "OK, well done sweetheart, you really know how to talk to me... So let's get back to our Dual Cultivation training, the one through which our baby was conceived..."

'And we will talk later about you participating in the war', Alan couldn't help but think.

And as Alan was already ready to start their intensive training, Erik said hurriedly before Alan couldn't focus on anything else until he was fully satisfied: "About our bond... I want us to practise using it, I don't know how you did it but it can be a formidable weapon.

Your emotions made our bond act on its own to protect me and the baby, but imagine if we could use it at will in this way, its power managed to take down the 12 personal guards of a Goddess, and I'm sure we can increase its power."

Alan then smiled at him as he could see that Erik was really very enthusiastic about the power of their bond, so he said to him, to put him in an excellent mood for the intensive training he was about to put him through: "Indeed sweetheart, think about it, you told me yourself that our bond had used my energy reserve to defend us, so imagine if it drew on yours when you use your Stage 2... An almost inexhaustible reserve of energy... It would certainly make its power a lot more impressive, wouldn't it?"

Erik's eyes began to shine and Alan then asked him one last time before letting himself go: "Are you sure our baby won't be at risk if I make love to you? Intensively..."

Erik laughed then and he said as he tied his legs around Alan's waist: "Absolutely certain... I'm all yours!"
