Forced To Marry The Devil : A Crazy Love Saga

And Markus already knew what Kizy was going to ask.

"I know that you all must be having endless questions and I am definitely going to answer them all. But not now. I have to explain it to my team, you and your team members as well. So let us postpone this question for now." Markus said while stroking her hairs.

"Hmmm. I feel a little sleepy." Kizy said, resting her head on his shoulder.

"Sleep all you want. I am there for you." Markus said, gently caressing her hairs, which made Kizy feel more sleepy.

Markus helped her lie down properly, while taking the spot next to her, stroking her head to help her doze off to dreamland quickly.

Maybe she was truly very tired, or maybe it was a result of her pregnancy, but she had a deep sleep even after resting for two hours.

Kizy woke up at 9 am, only to find the spot beside her empty. She literally jumped out of the bed, scared that all that happened was a dream.

"Kizy!! You can not wake up like that child. You are pregnant now." Grandma instantly shrieked in a worried tone, watching how Kizy had sprang up from the bed.

"Where is Markus?" Kizy said, her forehead covered in sweat, paying no attention to grandma's words while rushing out of the bedroom.

She only stopped when she spotted him downstairs, doing something near the dining table.

"You brat!! First come over here!!" Grandma shouted at Markus, knowing what Kizy must have thought.

Markus instantly turned to look at the second floor, only to find Kizy looking scared, drenched in cold sweat, wearing no sleepers.

He quickly ran upstairs, embracing Kizy in a hug while kissing her forehead.

"Sorry for leaving your side. I was doing some chores." Markus said, knowing full well about what was going inside Kizy's head.

"Don't leave her alone like that. She had literally jumped out of the bed after seeing that you were not there." Grandma scolded Markus.

Markus instantly turned towards Kizy, wide eyed, while his eyes travelled slowly towards her belly, his jaw dropping to the ground.

"Nothing happened to the baby so stop overreacting. But never repeat that again!" Grandpa said while slapping her own forehead, not knowing how this couple had survived this world with that brain of theirs until now.

"I am sorry. Please take care of yourself and the baby. I will never leave the bed till you are awake." Markus said in a gentle tone while tucking a strand of her hair behind her ear.

"It's ok. I was just worried. Anyways what were you doing near the dining table though?" Kizy asked, trying to divert Markus and grandma's attention.

"Oh. I was doing some little touch ups to our house and redecorating a room for the baby." Markus said in a proud way.

But both Kizy and grandma burst out laughing, making him scratch his head.

"Markus, isn't it too early to decorate a room for the baby? I mean we have months!! And what little touch ups are you doing?" Kizy asked in an amused voice while stifling laughter.

"We should always be prepared beforehand!" Markus said in a dramatic voice, trying to cover up for his unnecessarily excessive excitement.

"Pfft. 'We should always be prepared beforehand!'". Kizy imitated Markus, trying to copy his tone.

"Markus, our baby will arrive after months! Are you sure that you are talking about preparing for our baby's arrival and not some battle?" Kizy said while laughing more.

But there was a sudden change in Markus's eyes, his eyes darkening abruptly.

"Thank god that you are back! I was dying to see my granddaughter in law have a hearty laugh like this." Grandma said, timely pulling Markus back to present.

Kizy didn't see anything or maybe she just pretended not to, knowing that Markus would reveal everything soon.

"You forgot to tell me about the little touch ups." Kizy said, swiftly changing the topic so that Markus won't feel any more guilt after listening to grandma's words.

"Come, I'll show you." Markus said while holding Kizy's hand while signalling grandma to join them both.

The trio soon reached downstairs, ending near the dining table.

"Look I was fitting this at the edges." Markus said while picking up a round edged piece which he was supposedly fitting near the slightly sharp corner of the dining table.

"Don't tell me you will be fitting such things over the sharp edges of all the furniture in our house!" Kizy said, seriously dumbfounded at Markus's action.

"Yes, you are right." Markus was speaking when suddenly the old butler came ahead.

"Thank god elder madam you are here. Will you please ask the young master to leave this work to us? We all tried to plead with the young master, but he simply threatened us, saying that he would remove anyone who was to intervene." The butler said in the most helpless tone.

Only he knew that he had been begging Markus a million times to let them do this house chore along with rest of the servants and maids, but Markus wasn't budging at all. In fact at the end, he gave an angry glare to the butler who literally ran away with his tail between his legs.

"No you go. I said I will do it on my own." Markus said in a stern tone, feeling cheated as the butler complained about him to his grandma.

"Markus let them do this. Your arm is injured." Kizy said.

"No, I have already missed a lot of things. So let me do this at least." Markus replied.

"Child, I won't stop you from doing this. But why don't you start this from tomorrow? Your grandpa and mom will be here soon along with the others. We should not start creating a mess when they are about to arrive here." Grandma tried to explain to Markus.

"Wait wait. Why are they all coming here? I mean it's a good thing but why suddenly? And who do you mean by others?" Kizy asked, confused at grandma's words.
