Chapter 246 - Lullaby

Victor stopped running and suddenly thought of Violet and the baby. He suddenly felt something odd and the agent who was monitoring him. 

"Victor, are you alright?" They asked. 

"Yes." He said coldly as he started walking back to the penthouse building. He took a shower and then tried to call Violet. But she wasn't answering. He suddenly felt a little anxious. He sent her a message and he sat down on his bed and waited for her. He already locked the door so the girls won't enter and interrupt him. 

He waited and stayed seated for two more hours. He didn't move until the phone started vibrating. He quickly answered it and pressed his lips to hold himself. 

"Hey, my love." 

"Why didn't you answer my call?" Victor asked. 

"I~I just gave birth to our baby boy, Kileona."

"Hmm," He didn't know how to react. 

"Victor," 

"His name is Kileona?" 

"Yes." 

"I want to see him." 

"No. You know why." Violet said softly. 

He was more eager to see Violet. He doesn't know what to feel toward his son. 

"Is it really my son?" 

"What do you mean?" Violet asked. 

"I'm sorry." He whispered. "I don't know what to feel." 

"Victor, wait until you see your son. Alright?" She didn't want to put their son in danger and he understood that. 

"I love you, Violet. And I, I want to survive for you." 

"That's good." 

The baby cried and he heard it. His heart melted. He looked down at his shaking hands in excitement to see their son. 

"I want to hear more, Violet." 

"Baby, say hi to daddy…" 

The baby stopped crying and cooing. His heart was showing a different heartbeat. It was love at first sight. He can't wait to leave the Charles Empire and kill them all. He lay down on the bed and listened to his baby and his wife. He wanted to feel their warmth. He wanted to sneak out to where she was now. He wanted to hold him in his arms while she's holding their baby. He wanted to take care of her but they would surely take his baby to be their lab rat. He won't let him be safe to have the same faith as him and as his mother.

When Violet reached the mansion, everyone greeted her and even had a party. She was happy as she let Maxine hold baby Kileona. She sat down at the dining table as Leon and Bull served her favorites. And there are scallops soup for her so she could lactate more for her baby. 

"He's so handsome," Maxine said and pouted while admiring baby Kileona. She sat down and admired the handsome newborn. 

Violet grinned at Maxine as she sipped on the soup of the scallops. 

"So, did you tell Victor?" Harvey asked out of nowhere. She continued eating as she nodded her head. 

"He won't see our son unless he's better and he escaped the Charles Empire." 

Harvey nodded as he looked at Johanna who was busy eating. 

"Can you fight your brother?" Harvey asked. 

"Sure," Johanna said without caring that much. 

"Don't kill him. Okay?" Harvey patted her. "For now, focus on your pregnancy rather than stressing about the Charles Empire. They will lay low after their mother threatens that little bitch." He grinned. 

"By the way, how did your mom do that?" Leon suddenly asked. "I mean she scared off Wendy just like that?" 

"Do not ever, ever look down on the mother's love," Harvey told him. 

"Well, she's kind of scary." Viper commented. "Although she always is, it only means that she's hiding struggling and evil plans." He shrugged.

Johanna continues eating without caring about their conversations. That also goes for Violet who was busy sipping on the soup that MJ made. 

"Aren't you going to eat?" MJ asked her husband. He quickly pulled a chair for her and put a cushion over it. 

"Don't worry. I am happy when you are eating." He grinned at her and kissed her lips. 

He happily served her food and Viper frowned. He was the only one who didn't have a love life. Everyone has somebody with them. Although the celebrity girlfriend isn't here now, soon, she will arrive. He left everyone and went to the living room to play video games. Violet already noticed it but she already prayed that he would find someone who matched him. 

"Hey, we need to find a girl for Viper." She said to them almost like a whisper. They all looked at Viper who was now starting a game. "What do you think?" 

"Sure," Leon shrugged. "Tell me what we can do. A girly girl isn't perfect for him though." 

"Maybe someone independent." Johanna suddenly spoke as everyone looked at her and agreed right away. 

"Yeah, maybe someone like that." Leon agreed. "We need to dress him up into something like a CEO casual type." 

After the welcome party, Violet went to her room and smiled when the crib was ready. There's also his baby's clothes that Karmina also bought. It was so adorable that she couldn't wait to dress her baby boy. Maxine delivered her baby and carefully put it in the crib. 

"How about a bath?" Maxine asked. I will prepare a warm one." 

"Thank you," Violet whispered as she went to her closet to pick a dress where it'll be easy for her to feed her son. 

"Bath is ready. I will stay with Kel." Maxine said where she already gave Kileona a nickname. 

Violet had a nice bath finally and she dried off her hair with the hair blower. Shortly, she came up and Maxine was watching over Kileona like he gave birth to her. 

"It's alright now. I will take care of him." Violet said. 

"Okay," She nodded. "I already sent my resignation." She told her. 

"Good. We will be ready in a few months." Violet said and looked at her son. She suddenly has separation anxiety. "I will take care of him until he's four months old. We will take care of him together." 

"Yes, we will take care of him." 

Maxine closed the dark curtains. 

"Just let me know what you need." She pointed to the remote. "You need to take a long break." 

"I'm fine. I have already recovered. I will exercise soon." 

"I think you should relax more. I heard that the first pregnancy hurts like bitch." 

"Indeed." She chuckled as she scooped her baby. She gently put her on the small mattress that they set up and put a small blanket over him. The baby moved and stretched. 

"I will be leaving now," Maxine said as Violet nodded. 

Violet watched as her baby's beautiful eyes opened and he smiled at her. 

"Are you hungry, little man?"She carefully opened the button of her dress as she carefully pulled him and fed him. He sucked well. She felt her milk coming out a lot and he had a big appetite. She kissed his head and hummed her the song that Keira composed for her darling son. 

He was staring at her while she's singing that lullaby and her heart melted so much that he looked at her with those wide eyes and full of admiration while he's sucking. She giggled and admired him more. 

"I think your Godmother's voice was way better than mine, right?" 

The baby cooed after releasing his mouth from her nipples as he understood her. 

"You are so bright, Kileona." She said softly. 

She reached for her phone and started playing the song that Keira recorded. She didn't just record one but she made ten lullabies for her baby. The rich Godmother even bought a vinyl player and put it in the vinyl CD just for Kileona. She now wondered how spoiled Johanna's baby will become. Victor would probably be so happy if he had met the couple who adopted Hannah Grace. 

Violet sang a very meaningful song. 

Today's sunset will say goodbye

And you would say hi to the moon and stars

Darling, it's just days passed by

But my love will grow and so you are…

Sunset, sunrise, moon, and stars

I will still hold you like this and let you sleep in my arms

Because my little love, I would always be there until you become a man

My little love, my little moon, my little sun, remember that I will always love you…

Violet sang after she listened to it all over again in the hospital. It was a soothing song and the lyrics were full of love. Somehow a tear fell from her eyes thinking that she might not see him after she would continue her mission. She wiped her tears and sniffled. 

There will be times that I won't be by your side

But I will always find you because you are my little love

Little love, little love… don't cry

Little love, little love… mama's here, so don't cry…

Violet still sang that lullaby although she was weeping over the thought of leaving her baby. But what could she do? She must save her husband so Kileona would grow up with a father on his side.. She wanted to give him a complete family, one thing that she never had.
