The next day Alaric wasted no time having the biggest hospital in Yorkshire check Aleksis' pregnancy.
Although Nicolae himself was a doctor, he was reluctant to offer to do this to his brother's wife. Who knew how many years it would take him to be able to act casually in front of Aleksis again.
After returning from the hospital, Alaric announced proudly to the whole house that he would become a father again. Aleksis was six weeks pregnant and they happily began to prepare for this.
Lauriel and Nicolae celebrated the good news by drinking champagne, while Alaric and Aleksis only drank juice. However, none of them minded, as this pregnancy was what they really wanted.
"Every time my mother becomes pregnant, my father would stop drinking alcohol for nine months," said Aleksis while reading the hospital's report. "Do you think you can do that?"
Alaric shrugged. "That's how it should be, right?"
"Alright ... sounds like you're ready," Aleksis replied with a smile.
Alaric looked at Aleksis for a long time. A smile then appeared on his face. At first, it was just a small curve, but then, that curve increasingly grew wider, greatly puzzling Aleksis.
"What's wrong? Is there something on my face?" She asked.
Alaric shook his head. He looked very happy. "Not at all. I just remember ... it's already six weeks, meaning ... this pregnancy is the result of my hard work last month in Grosseto when we just reunited. I am correct. We succeeded on the first try."
Aleksis rolled her eyes. Seeing that Alaric was really proud of his unusual ability, the woman then laughed. "How do you know? We've been doing 'that' every day ..."
Her face then reddened. She was a m.a.t.u.r.e and married woman, but every time she talked about their s.e.x.u.a.l intimacy, she still could not help but blush. When the realization dawned to her, she instinctively hit her husband on the shoulder before laughing shyly.
"Uhmm ... how many children do you want to have?" Aleksis asked him. She knew Alaric was eager to expand their family as he had been feeling very lonely for a long time. Especially now that he was forced to 'share' his children with his twin brother. It must have been quite painful that instead of him, it was Nilocae who had become a father figure to Altair and Vega. Even when they reunited, he could not force the two children to follow him and leave Nicolae.
"Hmm ... if it will be up to me, I would, of course, want for us to have many children. But I don't want to be selfish. So, let's just have as many children as you want. Each time we make love, if we really want to have more children, it will definitely happen. If only one of us wanted it, then there wouldn't be another kid. How about that?" Alaric asked her back.
"I think that will be for the best," Aleksis replied with a happy smile.
The two then shared an intimate kiss. In the corner, Lauriel and Nicolae were forced to turn away from the scene and looked into the distance outside the window as they talked about the yellow and orange leaves that were making the trees in autumn look very beautiful.

Lauriel decided to stay longer in Yorkshire with Nicolae and the two children. They wanted to be as close as possible to Luna's grave after being separated for so long. As for Aleksis and Alaric, they left for Singapore.
Aleksis had stated several times her d.e.s.i.r.e to return there in order to reminisce their first meeting. Alaric was more than happy to grant her wishes.
He knew Altair and Vega still preferred to stay with Nicolae and Lauriel, so he let his children stay in Yorkshire while he brought Aleksis to Singapore.
They landed at Changi airport at nightfall. Aleksis was surprised to see Takeshi picking them up on the runway with two cars. The young man from before was now a m.a.t.u.r.e man in his late 30s. He looked very neat like an ordinary businessman.
"Gosh ... Takeshi, you look so grown-up," she exclaimed.
The man just nodded and smiled respectfully. He heard from Mischa that his foster father's wife was the same woman who had once been his responsibility to protect in Singapore with Mischa. That was ten years ago. He had already been informed that like Alaric, she was also not aging, but he was still stunned when he saw her in person.
After ten years, Aleksis' face still looked as young as ever, even more beautiful. In his heart, he felt happy because his foster father found such a woman, who was also an immortal.
Since he had already known Alaric for three decades, Takeshi was aware that his foster father also did not age. Although the man had never discussed it with them openly, they knew he was a special human being who could stay young forever.
"Would you like to come home with us for dinner?" Aleksis asked Takeshi when they finished exchanging greetings. "You have to tell me how you've been."
"Sure, Madam. I will come to the mansion tomorrow. If I'm not mistaken, Master wants to invite you for dinner at a special place tonight," Takeshi replied.
Aleksis turned to Alaric. "Where's the special dinner?"
"At Sky Bar, the place we first met when you broke into my company's party," Alaric said, smiling faintly. "I remember that's also where you proposed to me."
"I did NOT propose to you, okay..." she argued. "I was only claiming a wish from you. You told me you would grant one wish for me, no matter what it is."
Alaric just laughed and nodded in agreement. Recently, he learned that he had to agree to whatever his wife said, so she would not break down and cry due to her pregnancy hormone that was making her a bit too s.e.n.s.i.t.i.v.e.
He helped his wife into the car then patted Takeshi on the shoulder. "See you tomorrow night."
"Yes, Sir." Takeshi waved his hand and waited for Alaric to first get into the back seat before driving the car away from the airport towards the Continental Building.
Per his foster father's order, Takeshi reserved the entire Sky Bar so that Aleksis and Alaric could enjoy dinner without being disturbed by anyone. After they arrived at the Continental Building lobby, the two immediately took the elevator to the 99th floor.
