Capítulo 170: Departure
* * *
The final day has come; Laotian needs to go to Africa for a business trip that will last at least a month. Daniel was still a little bit withdrawn but now Laotian knew his beloved understood.
"I still can't believe you're leaving," Daniel mumbled softly, waking up earlier than his usual time since his pregnancy started. Laotian was already awake but he just stayed in the bed, wanting to spend a little more time with his beloved wife until it's time to leave.
"You better call me every day or else I'll come to pick you up," Daniel warned slightly, sitting up to glare at the Alpha. The sheets that were covering his bare body slipped down, giving Laotian an image to feast on so early in the morning. Just as he expected, he really liked seeing Daniel pregnant, even though he didn't want to add any more children to their little family. Just the thought of the Omega bearing his offspring somehow made him feel satisfied. It made his inner self feel joy and pride.
"Hmmmn, I'll call you without fail," Laotian replied, caressing Daniel's soft cheeks before his warm palms landed on his unblemished bulging stomach.
"You better! Anyway, which secretary are you bringing with you? I don't want you going with a young and single Alpha or Beta." Daniel said with a frown, again remembering this important fact. Even if Laotian won't cheat on him, thinking of someone trying to seduce his husband leaves a bitter taste in his mouth. Laotian had three secretaries and as far as Daniel could remember, they were all young and attractive Alphas.
"Fortunately, I won't be bringing a secretary this time, so you don't need to worry," Laotian chuckled while urging Daniel to ride him. "And even if I did, I wouldn't dare bring someone that you didn't approve of," Laotian cooed, playing with Daniel's exposed skin until it slipped inside his shorts, caressing the soft and supple skin that he enjoyed sucking on yesterday.
"Hmmm, good because I don't want anyone thinking they could take this chance to steal you away from me," Daniel replied with a puff, making him look more adorable with his arms crossed above his bulging stomach. Although he knew full well his husband was head over heels for him still since the Alpha never failed to make him feel that.
Laotian on the other hand laughed again, but didn't say anything, he just continued playing with Daniel's skin and savored the moment as much as he could. Truthfully, he didn't want to leave but this was a very important project that he had been working on for the last two years and he was not the type to give up just like that. Especially when he put his heart and mind into a project from the very beginning.
"Why are you suddenly so silent? Was anyone making a move on you?" Daniel asked, still crossing his arms, although he doubted anyone would dare go near Laotian.
"Definitely none, I was just thinking how my marks look even sexier on your skin. These are just simple marks, but on you, they look like art and I'm the artist," Laotian said with his charming smile, his fingers still on Daniel's thighs, brushing the soft skin tenderly.
"Y-You're just a sweet talker." Hearing the Alpha's remarks, Daniel blushed shyly. He quickly remembered their activity yesterday and he couldn't help feeling shy. Even though they're both very much familiar with their bodies, Daniel still couldn't help feeling shy, especially when he was being too demanding yesterday even though he wasn't in heat.
"It's true, this makes me want to devour you again," Laotian whispered huskily, looking at his wife filled with love, lust, and longing. Seeing this, Daniel's heartbeat quickened, like it always would when the Alpha stares at him like this. He could feel the strong emotion making him happier than ever, knowing that one person loved him so much he could feel it just from the way they looked at him.
"But today we can't. It'll have to wait until I'm back." Laotian said, quickly dismissing his inner desire. Yesterday was already enough for him to last until he came back. More than that and he won't want to leave anymore, which will delay his schedule and he couldn't afford that.
Sitting up, making sure Daniel wouldn't stumble back, he caressed his wife's hair and kissed his forehead. "We should get up and eat an early breakfast," Laotian said. Daniel stayed silent but later nodded. Laotian helped him out of the bed, and like their usual morning routine, he handed Daniel an oversized pair of clothes before they walked a little bit for exercise, then headed to the bathroom to brush their teeth and wash their faces.
When they were ready to walk out, Laotian took a little trip to Luangmin's open crib and lifted the sleeping 2-year-old into his arms after checking if he had wet himself or not.
"He's been sleeping quite often these days as well. I think he's copying my routine. He just likes me too much," Daniel giggled. Back when he used to wake up early, the little boy tends to wake up early as well. But now that Daniel is waking up a little bit later because the twins are making him sleep longer, Luangmin sleeps longer as well. Plus he takes extra naps when Daniel's also napping. That's just their routine every day, and it didn't seem like both mother and son were sick of it yet.
"Hmmm, he is indeed my son." Laotian chuckled as they walked. Luangmin and he have gotten a lot closer these past weeks that Luangmin let Laotian carry him now instead of Daniel. But the little kid still tends to follow Daniel all around, even though Laotian sometimes gets a little bit annoyed that he couldn't get Daniel alone for himself. However, he still really finds it cute looking at the two who resembles a mother duck and her little ducklings in a line going wherever their mother went.
"He is…" Daniel giggles. "Both of you like me too much," he added jokingly, rubbing on Luangmin's sleepy head.
"Hmmm, that is true." Laotian quickly admitted without shame, actually even sounding prouder than he should be, making Daniel burst into laughter. His husband was just too shameless sometimes. Even when he didn't seem like a person who would fall head-over-heels for someone, that seems not to be the case when it comes to Daniel. As for Laotian, he was indeed someone who was difficult to capture. He hated being controlled by anyone other than himself, but he didn't mind if it was Daniel.
If it was a few years back and someone told him that he will be falling in love with a bunny type submissive Male Omega, that he would fall completely head over heels for him, Laotian wouldn't have a second thought and shoot that person in the head. He didn't have time for love and he was not planning to ever have a family. He would never have believed that he would fall for someone so much that he would be ruined if he ever loses that love.
"Come on, let's just eat breakfast," Daniel shook his head still laughing, and quickly headed to the kitchen, ready to eat his breakfast. When they reached the dining area, the maids were in the process of serving breakfast for Laotian. Seeing Daniel was awake as well, they didn't need to be told and they quickly added another plate for the Omega. Normally for the past month, Daniel wakes up late so he eats breakfast just when Mo Laotian leaves for work.
And just like how they used to normally eat breakfast together, Daniel and Laotian enjoyed their last meal together. They enjoyed being in a conversation while eating, it was peaceful and had a warm feeling. Alas, it has to end. Laotian's flight was at 10 am in the morning, they couldn't enjoy talking too much. They quickly headed to prepare and at 9 am Laotian was ready to go. Daniel and Luangmin were ready to send the Alpha off, even though Daniel was still a little bit sad about it.
"What did David want to say?" Daniel asked after Laotian came back. He went to talk to David for a bit while he was doing a final check on all of Laotian's belongings, so he wasn't able to hear what they were talking about.
"Hmmmn, he asked for a temporary leave. He was worried about you and Luangmin but I assured him that you'll be fine with Mother and Father while I'm away," Laotian replied, bending down to lift Luangmin into his arms again. "It had been a long time since he asked for a leave, so I told him he can rest for as long as he wants and to come back whenever he can," Laotian added. David had been his butler for the longest time and he knew the man was not the kind to take a leave without a proper reason. Although he would feel more at ease if he would be leaving Daniel in David's care, he also didn't want to hold David back from whatever he wanted to do.
"Oh, is he leaving now? I haven't said my goodbye to him," Daniel said and looked at the direction where David usually was.
"It's okay, David doesn't like goodbyes. You'll be surprised one day that he's back," Laotian chuckled while urging Daniel to move towards the exit. His luggage was already brought out by the maids, so the only one that was left was them.
"Oh, okay. I'll just call him later to wish him a happy vacation then," Daniel smiled, following Laotian's lead. Soon they drove towards the airport where Laotian's private plane was waiting for him for take-off. This sudden business trip of his was kept hidden from the public and even from his most trusted personnel from the Mo Empire. He knew that he had enemies lurking around ready to strike, this was his initial precaution so what had happened with Daniel a few years back won't happen again.
He knew that if his departure was made known these enemies that were waiting for a chance to strike down will come and target Daniel. This is also why he increased the number of bodyguards that will be guarding Daniel while he was gone. But of course, they still need to hide from their VIP so it wouldn't stress Daniel out, especially now that he's pregnant.
"Laotian, I will miss you so much," Daniel whispered. They're now at the airport, but since Laotian was leaving using his own aircraft their car headed straight to where the plane was parked. However, because it was currently too cold outside, they're bidding their goodbyes inside the car while Laotian's luggage was being loaded into the plane.
"I will miss you and Luangmin just as much," Laotian replied and kissed Daniel's forehead. If anything, he would miss Daniel so much more, that even now at this moment he planned to rush all his business transactions so he could go back earlier.
After kissing Daniel on the forehead, he then held his cheeks, rubbing his thumb on its soft surface. "Be good. Always remember to be careful, okay? I'll be back before you know it." Laotian said again and then drew closer to kiss Daniel's lips. It was only brief but it made Daniel gasp, nodding at the reminder.
Humming in approval, Laotian then shifted his attention to Luangmin, who was a little bit upset seeing his father kissing his Daniel again. "Don't give mommy a headache. Be good." Laotian said, messing with his hair before shifting his attention again to Daniel and then to his stomach.
"And you two as well, don't give Mommy a headache," Laotian chuckled. He leaned forward and kissed Daniel's bulging stomach, making Daniel giggle.
"They've been silent up until now. Maybe when you're back they'll start moving." Daniel said a little bit teary-eyed. He knew he was being too emotional again, but he just couldn't help it. He stared at his husband's eyes, he didn't say anything. He just continued to let himself be swallowed up by their deep brown color. It was so filled with love and affection that he knew was directed at him alone. Daniel chewed on his lips, preventing himself from crying. It was not until they were interrupted by someone outside knocking, reminding them of Laotian's take-off schedule, that Daniel finally said something.
"I love you," Daniel said which quickly made Laotian smile.
"And I to you," Laotian replied as they kissed again. And when they separated, it was finally time to say goodbye.
Daniel gazed out of the window car and watched the Alpha climb up the stairs to the plane. He didn't let the driver leave the runway until the jet plane that Mo Laotian was in disappeared into the clouds, counting this day as the first day they are separated.
