“That’s great. If Colton already likes him, then I’m sure Brandon will like him too.” Sophia said, seeing the positive sign. “Just do one thing, let's arrange a meeting between Brandon and Artemis, and after dating for a couple of years and after years of convince, your dad might….”
“Mommmm… the main part is still pending.”
“What’s the main part?” Sophia wondered. “Oh, you want to give a small introduction about him and his family? Go on; I’m listening.”
‘Introduction? Yeah! I can reveal my relationship status in the middle of the introduction.’ Caroline thought.
“His name is Artemis Thomas Gosling, and he is five years older than me. Just like dad and Colton, he is more into Business than pack, so you can also call him Urban werewolf like they had nothing to do with much, just like dad because of his elder cousin wanted to be an Alpha. Tonight, he will announce himself as the new CEO of the company, that’s why I’m dressed like this. Talking about his family, everyone is great except for some Bitter gourd. But the most important thing is that his grandparents and his parents liked me very much.”
“Ahh.. Glad to know that your future new family is already in love with you.” Sophia remarked, after all, supporting in-laws was no less than a blessing for any girl.
“Talking about Artemis, he is the mixture of my brothers. In terms of Business, I can see Colton is highly impressed with him, and he is funny and cheesy just like Calvin.”
“I think I'm already in love with him, and I’m sure Brandon will approve...
“And we have already marked each other and are also married on papers. The cherry on the top, we also have a son now.”
Sophia “....”
Sophia opened her mouth to say anything, but at that moment, she was really out of words. She had heard about flash marriage, but how the hell her daughter had a son now? Only a vampire’s baby could be out of any female’s system this soon because the growth rate of the baby from a vampire was too fast compared to the kids of other creatures.
“Mom, I hope there is no issue with the network because you’re statue again.” Caroline paused before continuing, “I knew I shouldn’t have taken such a big step without talking about it with you or dad. But… but everything happened in a flash. I met him on the first day in Spain, and I didn’t really realize when I fell for him. When he asked me to make everything official, I chose to hear my heart over my mind. So, I let him claim me just after my trip to Spain, and because of his mark, I also got a wolf soul who marked him back.”
Sophia massaged her forehead after listening to her daughter’s story.
“I’m sorry, Mom, for not sharing about it with you earlier.” Caroline apologized. “And about our son, I found him in an orphanage; you know how much I am attached to the orphanage or orphan babies from my seventh birthday. So, we… we decided to give a family to Artin. He is a two years old toddler, a naughty and cute one. You will fall in love with him as well.”
“Mom, say something.”
“I don’t have any words to say. I’m speechless.” Sophia said, still trying to recover from this news. She realized it was almost the same situation when Rebecca had told Oliver about Brandon in her life for the second time.
“Don’t say like that, mom. You’re my only and last hope. Colton tried to talk with dad, and he shut him down. Only you can handle him and convince him.” Caroline requested. “Can’t you do this for me?” Caroline pouted. “My situation is no different than yours, nineteen years back. At that time, you couldn’t marry dad without Uncle Oli’s permission, and I… I..” Caroline paused in between because she was already kind of married to Artemis on paper and by werewolf law. “ I… won’t be able to stay happy without dad’s acceptance.”
“Wow!! You’re using my tricks on me.”
“Please, Mom. I love you so much!! Can’t you do this for me? Pleaseeee pleaseeee!! See my happy face; this is the effect of Artemis! You will have to do something, so please, please, please!!”
“Okay! Okay!!” Sophia couldn’t help but agree because she didn’t have any other choice than that. If the same thing would have done by Colton, then she would have celebrated out of happiness, then she should take Caroline’s sudden marriage thing in a good way, right?
“Thank you, Mom. Thank you so much!! I assure you that you don’t have to worry about me just because of my sudden move, because when you will meet Artemis, you will understand why I fell for him this hard. He is an amazing person. I love you so much!! Now, bye, I have to attend the party tonight.”
“Bye, sweetheart!! Take care!! By the way, when you’re returning?”
“Tomorrow night or the day after tomorrow in the morning!! So, you don’t have much time, you see.” Caroline said, scaring Sophia a little and also giving her a mini heart attack. “Bye, love you, Mom.”
“Love you too.”
After a while, Brandon Haysbert walked into the home with a big grin on his face. “Someone is in a good mood,” Sophia commented and started planning how to tell him about Caroline’s relationship status.
“Yes! It’s because I heard the end part of Caro’s and your conversation..."
