The King's Wife Is The Alpha's Mate

Sophie looked at Leland and noticed his different demeanor today. She wondered what he was hiding from her.

"Have you had your breakfast?" Leland asked again, gently.

Sophie answered his question by shaking her head weakly.  She had not had breakfast. She didn't have an appetite too since after she woke up she had been bothered by what she saw in the royal palace.

"Then, wait a moment." Leland got out of bed and quickly stepped out of the room. He looked around and couldn't find a servant he could ask to get Sophie breakfast

Leland finally decided to go and fetch it himself in the kitchen. The servants would have already prepared the dishes in the kitchen, otherwise, Leland would have made all the servants as a meal for all the wild wolves in the forest.

When he arrived at the kitchen, Leland saw a couple of servants standing around Lucas. The Beta was preoccupied with a task, he was tasting the dishes one by one.

"You're not done?" Leland stepped closer, and all the servants including Lucas immediately bowed respectfully.

Earlier, before meeting Sophie in the bedroom, Leland ordered Lucas to check all the food that would be given to Sophie. He didn't want the past incident to happen again.

He and Sophie lost Morgan and Emery because of the poison Dinah mixed into Sophie's tea. This time, Leland didn't want to lose another child. Therefore he would take care of Sophie and the child in Sophie's womb protectively. He wouldn't let anyone get the chance to hurt them.

After Lucas made sure all the food was safe from poison. All the servants standing around Lucas immediately brought all the dishes and stepped quickly, they followed Leland who walked in front of them.

Not long after, they arrived at the Alpha and Luna's room. Leland, who didn't see Sophie in the room was a little surprised. No, actually he almost panicked. If it weren't for a maid who had been ordered by Sophie to tell Alpha that Luna and the children were on the terrace, he would certainly be agitated.

Leland, together with all the servants who carried the food, immediately headed for the terrace. After they arrived there, Leland immediately sat down on the chair opposite Sophie while the servants quickly set the food on the table.

Luciel and Jan, who were with Duncan and Max and caught up in playing, suddenly paused when Leland arrived. The two ran over when they saw their father coming.

"Good morning!" The two boys greeted their father and then sat on the chairs next to their parents. The two children did not say anything about the father's injuries.

After Jan and Luciel sat down, the four of them started having breakfast. They had breakfast as a happy family. Initially, Leland was worried and thought the atmosphere would be awkward, but thanks to Luciel and Jan, the atmosphere became fluid.

The two children asked a lot of questions, such as why do birds fly? Why is the sky blue? Why is the sun not there at night, and why is the moon not there during the day? Then how are they so handsome? And blah blah blah blah blah….

Sophie and Leland now struggled and started to get overwhelmed as they both tried to answer the two children's neverending questions.  They eventually exchanged glances and then ended up laughing together.

"Haah… such a happy family. Seeing Luciel and Jan, I feel like I want to have kids too," muttered Duncan, who now stood in the corner with Max and some of the servants who had followed Leland. "They are so adorable."

"Before you think about children, think about your mate first. Because to make a child you need to be mated unless you can reproduce on your own, so you don't have to think about a mate," Max said.

"Ha. Ha. Ha. How funny, Max," Duncan said, rolling his eyes.

***

In the garden, Luciel and Jan were now seen playing with Max, Duncan, and several other lycan children. After breakfast, the two children now had enough fuel to play until noon.

A gust of wind ruffled a few strands of Sophie's hair, who had just stood up and now gazed up at the rising sun.  Not long after Sophie rose from her chair, Leland followed and hugged Sophie from behind.

"Are you okay?" asked Leland. Actually, the Alpha knew that maybe Sophie was still thinking about her meeting with Nicholas Hanenbergh, but Leland wasn't going to talk about the man.

Sophie smiled sweetly at her husband's question.

"I should be the one asking like that, Leland," Sophie said. She let go of Leland's arms and then turned around and looked at the wound on Leland's face. She touched it gently with two fingers. "Are you okay? It must hurt, right?"

"I was in pain, but after I saw your sweet smiles, your eyes that sparkled like stars, and your pretty face like flowers, I'm fine," said Leland.

Cough! Cough!

Sophie was silent for three seconds and then batted her eyes. "Leland, let's come inside. I'll ask the healer to check on you. Your wounds look severe," Sophie said very worriedly.

"..."

Leland now made a strange expression. Even though he was just trying to be romantic, Sophie thought he was seriously ill.

"Leland, come on!"

"I'm fine, Sophia," said Leland. He changed his expression to flat then pulled Sophie back, who was already wanting to lead him inside. "Sit here."

Leland made Sophie sit on a chair while he crouched down in front of her. Then he gripped Sophie's two hands tightly and looked into her eyes intently. "Sophia, I have something to say."

Sophie blinked in confusion. She was a little tense because Leland's face looked very serious. Something Leland wanted to say must be very important, so she hoped it was not a bad thing.

"Leland, what's wrong? Did something bad happen?"

Leland shook his head.

"No." He smiled widely.

"Then what is it? You make me curious."

"You're pregnant, Sophia."

Swoosh….

For a moment, the atmosphere became silent.

"Le-Leland, what did you… say just now?" Sophie asked in a stammer. She could barely believe her own ears.
