Keira got a little cold when she woke up in the morning. Her voice was a little hoarse and she pouted when she couldn't sing well.
"Love!" She cried.
"Hey," Alessandro already had the turmeric lemon tea for her and gave it to her. "That will happen if you stay outside in the freezing weather." He said as she continued to pout and blow the mug. "There will be no kisses at all." He said. "You also need to wear a face mask and you won't be able to leave the house."
He went to the window and closed the curtains. She pouted at him and then he increased the heater.
"Baby, I want to see outside."
"No. You need to eat, drink your medicine and go back to sleep."
"But how am I supposed to help out?"
"You don't need to help out." He said as he reached the table tray and placed it in front of her. "Eat your breakfast and we will do most of the work here."
She sighed.
"You already ate?"
"I did. You were sleeping like a baby." He kissed his two fingers and placed them on her forehead. "Why won't you watch some fun movies?"
"I want to watch porn." She was straightforward as always.
"No. There's no porn here." He put his coat on and left. She pouted and looked at the mini bed of their little Princess. She was still asleep cuddled in the warm blankets. "It's you and me, baby girl." She sipped on her tea and sighed as it quickly relieved her throat.
She put it down and smiled at the food that probably her husband cooked for her. Soup with mint. Even her water has a mint. Anyway, she ate happily and slipped off from bed to put it on the table. She then went to the bathroom to do her thing and drink the medicine that her husband left for her.
She then started washing up, doing her skincare routine and wearing a beautiful Princess-like dress. Then, she put her face mask on and called Lovie who quickly jumped off from bed. She put clothes and socks on Lovie as the two went out of the room. Lovie looked excited as she dashed around and still waited for Keira.
"Keira!" Alessandro exclaimed and when she turned around her husband was surrounded by maids and butlers while he's holding a tablet. "I told you to rest."
"Babe, I will just walk around and when I am not full, I will go back. Promise."
Alessandro stared at her for long and she pouted behind her face mask.
"Please?"
Sandro sighed and waved at her.
"Don't go out. Just inside the castle. Okay?"
"Yes, boss." She saluted and ran with her pet. She then went to the grand hall where the party and ball will be held. She gasped at the chandelier that they were cleaning before pulling it up.
"Keira," Karmina called. "You are sick, right?"
"Mum, it is just cold. I am not sick."
Karmina patted her head.
"Well, this is the family chandelier. It's been with us for decades. We had it cleaned for tonight."
"It's beautiful."
"It is." Karmina smiled. "I remembered that we used to dance around here with my siblings. I will bring it all back."
"You can do it, mom."
"Okay, I will be very busy. But enjoy your walk with Lovie."
"I will."
Keira realized how busy they are in everything. Even the people in the kitchen were surprised that she came. Everything is clean and organized and the two head cooks even gave her food to taste. She loved living in the castle with nice people.
"This will help your cold." The female cook said.
"Thank you." She sipped on the pure ginger that they made and it indeed made her feel better. "This is amazing." She told them and she looked at the delicious foods.
"Keira!" Alessandro called and entered the kitchen. She quickly put her face mask on. "Back in the room now."
"Fine." She rolled her eyes as she called Lovie who followed them. Alessandro picked up the puppy and looked down at her as they walked out of the kitchen.
"I told you to rest but here you are." He grumbled. "Go to sleep so you can join the party later."
"Okay," She was still pouting behind her mask and then he escorted her back to the bedroom, made her change her clothes into fluffy comfortable pajamas, and tucked her in with Lovie.
"We will be very busy. Okay?"
"You are with many girls."
"Yeah, I know." He kissed her forehead.

"I love you." She gave him a flying kiss and he nodded and tucked her in.
"I love you more."

In the Charles Facility, they watched as Victor did well on the training. The Old Charles was happy. He thinks that this coming New Year will be his lucky year. Then, in two hours, they let him rest. He had his private room. But all he did after taking a shower was stare at nowhere.
They didn't know what was on his mind. He would sleep for hours and would eat less. Like he was torturing himself. That's why they make sure that in his food, he has everything his body needs.
Inside his mind, Victor thought of that baby that they made him listen to. It was familiar and they are telling him that they are going to kill his child if he won't do what they wanted. They also kept forgetting Hannah Grace. They want Hannah Grace and they want him to kill a lot of people. It was a lot and as he researched they were the Rossie Empire and De Alegre. They were rich and powerful.
He was left alone and was served elegant foods and desserts.
"Happy New Year." The doctor that was always attending him said. He looked up at him and he remembered a few things that the man told him to be always careful. "I brought you food." He said.
"Thank you, but I am not hungry."
"Are you going to sleep off the New Year?" He asked and checked his vitals. "You need to eat more, Victor."
"I'd rather die." He mumbled.
"If you die, you know what will happen." The doctor looked into his eyes and mouthed his words. "We will do everything to get you out of here and we will protect your family with our life."
His eyes widened. He knew it.
"So, have you forgotten about something? Maybe recently." The man checked his eyes. "You are stressed."
He was full of hope as he looked at the doctor and noticed that his face was fake this close.
"I am fine, doctor." He said. The doctor needed to leave now before they noticed his mask.
"Alright," the doctor checked a few things and gave him vitamins. "This will make you increase your appetite. It is just vitamins."
Victor nodded his head.
"I'm sorry for making you worry, doctor. It seemed like your wrinkles increased every day because of me."
The doctor stopped and then he chuckled.
"I will have my beauty sleep anytime soon after the celebration." He took his clipboard. "Well, happy New Year again."
Victor watched as the doctor left. He sighed as he looked at the food. It looked famishing and he stared at it. Then, he remembered something. His favorite food that Violet always made for him during special days. He approached the table and there's the perfect dessert for it.
They are safe. He smelled the food and smiled. It was indeed her cooking. He kept it open as he let the smell in the room. He wanted it to stay like that and stared at it, not to eat it.
Suddenly a soft knock on the door stopped him from thinking about his wife. He stood and opened it to see a little girl. Maybe he's around five but her eyes looked like something.
"Hey, Sir." She said, "What are you?" The little girl looked adorable and wore those white pajamas but somehow her expression was taken away from her. She sniffed and looked at the table in his room.
"Do you want to eat?" He asked.
"Yes, I'm starving."
He let the little girl in and served her food. She ate a lot, grabbing this and grabbing that. It looks like she hasn't been fed.
"When was the last time you were fed?" He asked.
"Yesterday." She said, "They said that I can't eat unless I finished the exam. I finished the exam and there's no food."
"Eat more but slowly." Victor's heart was slowly tearing. The poor little girl was like him when was being lectured. The little girl was like Hannah Grace when her father made extreme demands.
He gently patted the little girl.
"You have the food but you have to eat slowly or else your stomach will ache."
The little girl slowed down. She hummed and looked at the food that she didn't touch.
"What's that?"
"You can't eat that."
"It smells delicious."
He took a spare spoon and put a little on her plate.
"You can finish the rest but not that."
"Okay," She put down her spoon and fork. "But you have to give me half of your food every day. You can sneak them out, right? They gave you a lot of food because you are a big guy and they don't care about little ones."
Victor smiled for the first time this month.
