Chapter 419 - ONE YEAR OLD
Thick of ice had melted when seeds took root and vegetation began to grow, afterward temperatures increased before it became cool again when autumn came along with the fall of the leaves and the plants began to grow dormant…
A certain man, as beautiful as the fallen leaves and as cold as the winter season, walked determinedly toward the most exquisite house in that area.
His thick arms full with many presents and bags, yet it didn't bother him even the slightest, if anything, he looked more radiant than usual.
When he was already in the foyer, the door of the house had been opened by someone from inside.
"I can smell you from miles away." A sarcastic comment rang in Kace's ears, but he only grinned when Serefina stepped aside.
The witch didn't even offer him a help when Kace stumbled inside the house with his presents.
"Where is her? Where is her?" Kace almost jumped in excitement when he heard a giggling sound that came closer.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOnce he was inside the house, the Lycan put down everything that he had been carried and rushed to find the source of the happiness that bubble in his chest only by hearing her sound.
Kace didn't need to look for his Hope for long time, because a girl, around the age that looked like twelve, had brought the giggling little fella toward him.
It had been a year since the last time Kace met her and now the hair on her head has already grown beautifully.
Dark, as dark as her eyes just like the placid night sky. Looked so serene, yet mysterious and captivating.
The smile on her face was enough to outshine the sun out there, filled the Lycan's life full with bliss and happiness that he had never really felt before.
It was something amazing that how a little giggle from her could change how he saw his own life. Fascinating, isn't it?
"My Hope! My little star! My baby!" Kace raised the baby as high as his arms length and spun on his heels, made the baby giggle even more.
"Oh my moon! You have three teeth!" Kace squalled and hugged Hope to inspect her more. "No, you have four! Wow!"
On the other hand, Serefina didn't find a little change on Hope amazing at all. What was so surprising for having four teeth? She couldn't understand the way Kace reacted toward that small detail.
"Could she run?" Kace didn't even bother with Serefina's snarky comment, or maybe he didn't have much interest to hear the grumbling witch spewed her sarcasm everywhere.
"She could walk a few steps." Lana generously replied his question.
"Could she talk?" the Lycan's blue ocean eyes glued on the baby as if he couldn't tore his gaze away from her being.
"Just some incoherent words." Lana shrugged and then walked to take all the presents that Kace had bought for his little mate.
"Oh! My Hope had grown so big already!" Kace squalled once again. "I will bring you to the town and we can buy something nice, okey!?"
"No." Serefina cut his idea icily. "I have told you that she can't go out of this house until she turned five."
Kace, of course, had completely forgotten about that. The big lycan pouted his lips as a frown formed on his forehead.
"Five years?" Kace reiterated dramatically. "That means I have to wait for another four years until I can actually bring her to amus.e.m.e.nt park?" historical
"That's our deal." Serefina reminded him again and the big man could only sighed in defeat.
However, that little fact didn't dampen his mood for long time, because in the next second, Kace had crawled back to the presents that he had bought for Hope.
It was all toy and beautiful dresses, some accessories and a lot more things that Serefina couldn't figure out what kind of things that Kace had brought.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEven the dresses that he would occasionally send to this house, were still hanging perfectly, didn't have a chance yet to wear.
"I told you, I will not bring any of those things when we moved four years from now." Serefina warned him.
"It's alright, I can buy another thing for her all over again." Kace didn't mind, because everything for her girl had to be something new and exquisite.
Serefina rolled her eyes upon this statement. Of course, the witch wouldn't doubt it if someone told her that Kace had just bought out the entire store.
Kace neither an Alpha king like Jedrek, who own a castle, nor he was the supreme Alpha like torak, who own a business empire, but become immortal being had it own peak as there was many way to stash an abundant of wealthiness.
"Come here baby." Kace walked three steps back and squatted down as he waved his hand to Hope, who was looking at him.
Hope blinked her curios eyes at the sparkling object in Kace's hand, crouching down and crawling toward him.
"Good, come here… come here…" Kace caught his baby before she could bump onto his knees and put her on his laps. "Look, I have something for you…"
Kace opened the red box with black ribbon on top of it and pulled a sparkling object from inside the box.
It was a necklace with white pendant hang on its string. The pendant was a shape of a little moon, white full moon.
"Do you like it?" Kace let the pendant fell in front of Hope as he held the strings, "This is your birthday presents."
Hope stretched out her hand as she tried to catch the sparkling object. Kace let her grabbed it and played with it before he put the necklace around her neck and kissed her forehead. "Happy birthday my dear Hope!" Kace beamed when Hope hugged him.
And just like that, Kace spent the rest of the day played with the birthday girl, as he tried to make Hope call his name that Serefina found that was a ridiculous effort.
