Chapter 286 - Andromeda's Arrangement Part 2
Andromeda received a call that Dmitri donates to her funds for the poor. She smiled and thanked him. Then she received calls from her grandfather that Dmitri is not just investing. He\'s doing some more of it. Andromeda smiled.
"Grandpa, he\'s doing this to save his love."
"Hmm. Who is involved here?" He asked. Andromeda laughed. He doesn\'t want to mention any Pattinson. He might get pissed because the Old Pattinson might show his tongue and tell him that he\'s soon going to have a grandchild.
"Grandpa, chill okay?"
"Don\'t tell me that Pattinson is involved here?"
"Well, what should I say then?"
"Why won\'t you just have a baby with Zachary. That way I would be much happier."
She bit her tongue and then she sighed.
"I am not ready for that. Besides, I have my dogs. We pampered them like our babies." She said truthfully. Her grandfather sighed.
"Okay. How about Andel and Ellen?"
"They aren\'t ready yet. Andel\'s commitment is big to Sabrina."
"What\'s wrong with you girls and boys?"
"Grandpa, you raise us like this."
"Oh, right." Grandpa Alex said mockingly. "I don\'t want to be in the arrangement that Eric settled."
"Afraid to get caught off the virus?"
"The virus won\'t kill me." He said strongly. She laughed and wiped a little tear from her left eye. "If Dmitri would be present that I would be there. It\'s just great to attend there as Dmitri\'s guardian. Eric Pattinson should be grateful that Dmitri wanted to marry their daughter. You know what\'s in their blood."
"Yeah, yeah. So, Grandpa. How did I get this vision again?"
"It\'s in the damn prophecy. I hate to say this, but I don\'t like it. Your life is at risk." The old man sighed. "Do you know why I pushed you to Zachary despite of what he did?"
She paused and wait for him to continue. She wanted to hear him.
"I did that to save you. You were in so much anguish. I know that you love him so much and both of you couldn\'t forgive yourselves for what happened. It\'s not your fault and it wasn\'t his fault. Zachary has been torturing himself for years of being away from you. I\'m so sorry my dear, but I don\'t want you to die. That\'s why Zachary is there."
"Don\'t tell me that you are also seeing a vision?"
"No. Someone told me." He said mysteriously. And whoever is this someone, then she should thank him or her. Because no matter how bad they started, she\'s still there and she\'s happy. "But anyway, there are more painful experiences that you are going to face. So, be a good girl and tell me who it is."
She laughed and sighed.
"Grandpa, I thought you already know." She smirked.
"Well, you little brat. Just arranged something for me when the time comes. I want to be there for Dmitri."
"Okay, okay…"
"Good. I should probably start my exercise."
"Okay. Have a great day." Then she hung up. She sighed and her stomach form an unbearable knot. She wanted to puke at that moment. Damn it. She was so guilty about everything.

Steven looked at the poor Freya formed into a fetus position as she hugged a pillow. Cramps. Damn those cramps that are making her suffer. He went downstairs and fetch her three hot pads and then he put two on her stomach and then to her back, then he set a small pillow between them and he spooned her.
"You okay, babe?"
"No. I feel like literally dying here." She muttered.
"What do you want me to sing then?" He muttered. "Bleeding love?"
"Tsk." She held his hand and just closed her eyes.
He reached his phone with his other hand and play \'Bleeding Love\' of Leona Lewis. He sang along softly and kissed her head and then her shoulder. She didn\'t complain at all.
"I heard that sex would ease cramp." He suddenly muttered. She pinched his hand. "Ow." He said plainly. "Okay. I won\'t say it again." He kissed her ear and then her cheek.
"You don\'t mind having sex while a girl is on her period?" She suddenly asked.
"With you? No. Not at all. We can do it in a hot shower. I just read in an article that orgasm could ease the cramps and it would probably make the blood flow easier."
"Let\'s try it later." She murmured. He grinned and hugged her tightly.
"I\'m excited.
"It sounds gross to do it… but in the shower maybe it will be less gross."
"Menstruation is normal, and it could only mean that if you are fertile. We can have lots of babies"
"Stop talking about babies."
"Grandpa wants babies."
"Your grandfather would probably push me to marry you. I don\'t want that to happen." She muttered.
"The necklace that I gave to you." He reached it. "It\'s from mom and I said that maybe I\'ll customize it with Phoenix at the back. I was just thinking… do you like it."
"Yeah." She said sleepily. "I sometimes hate having a period but having a period means, I am not pregnant. But you know the very bad thing of having a period?"
"Cramps?"
"Not just cramps. I sometimes foresee things that are brutal. More deaths and deaths… I saw how people who are dying getting cremated and maybe it\'s happening at this moment." She said with a sighed. "I foresee things getting worse for people but good for the recovery of earth. I see how cruel people could be just to survive and take advantage of the crisis."
"Oh, my poor baby." He kissed her cheek. "Don\'t worry. I\'ll make you happy in the shower later."

Dmitri knocked on his sister\'s room and he opened it to see Steven snuggled to his poor sister. They are sleeping with soft music playing. He looked down at the tea that he prepared and maybe she doesn\'t need it since she already had someone to heat her up. He closed the door gently. Steven wasn\'t bad at all. He\'s glad that someone is there to protect her and spoil her. But he also wanted to spoil her as well.
He went downstairs to the living room and greet Selina who is busy checking out the menu. He smiled and sat across her then he looked at her stomach.
"So, when are you getting married to Fin?" He suddenly asked. She smiled at him.
"We are supposed to get married soon but because of the damn virus, we can\'t settle it."
"Hmm. We can do it in your garden."
"Grandpa wanted the whole clan to be there."
Dmitri\'s head swirled as he was pulled into a beautiful garden of Selina\'s house. They are in a picnic and three kids are running around. Then his heart melted seeing Selina laughing so much from whatever Fin say to her. His eyes went to Selina\'s stomach. It\'s round and maybe probably the month of her labor.
They are a big happy family. Then a boy looked up at him and waved.
"Uncle Dmitri! You look younger than before." Said the boy. He stopped and then the boy looked in the other direction. He\'s already seeing something.
The handsome four-year-old boy ran to him and he reached his hand.
"Uncle, can you help me? I think a school busy with kids like me is being surrounded by bad guys." He started tearing. He reached his cheek and wiped away his tears.
"You can do it, little boy. You can save them. Tell this to your dad and he will help you."
He sniffled and nodded then he ran to his dad and tell it to him. Dmitri gasped and he leaned on his sofa.
"Dmitri? Are you okay?" Selina came over and hold him.
"Yeah." He shook his head. "I\'m fine." Then his eyes went to her stomach. "It\'s probably a girl, your firstborn." She stopped and looked at him. "Then a bright young boy for your second." He smiled at her. She nearly cried but she nodded.
"Thank you."
"Your grandpa will be very happy that you are going to give him lots of great-grandchildren."
She laughed a little and wiped her tears.
"But you have to be patient. You are mated to a Phoenix and the consequences are that all your children might be gifted like us. Don\'t worry, Fin will always be with you."
"Then I take it as a gift." She said. Fin came up with snacks and kissed Selina and reached her stomach. "Let\'s get married soon. Maybe just register and that\'s it?" She suggested.
Fin looked at Dmitri asking for some advice.
"We can talk to General Mondragon with regards to that. He can have someone process it ASAP."
"Oh. Okay. I\'ll talk to the old man."
"So, how\'s Andromeda\'s arrangement?" Fin asked.
"Andy is currently helping me out about searching for the guy\'s identity. We need to at least show Sir Eric on how vicious the man. In that way, he and his clan will be totally embarrassed. I think there are at least more girls that have been raped by this demon."
"Hmm. We can\'t let him touch Agatha… not even the tip of her hair." Selina said and clenched her fist. She already knew Agatha\'s future since they discussed it openly.
"Don\'t worry. That won\'t happen." Dmitri promised and his phone chimes just to receive a kiss from her.
