Married into Alpha Lord

Chapter 21

Eleven to three. That's the final vote, making our Kingdom has finally become Dorsenburg's first official partner in trade. Darren looks relieved and concern, he didn't know the detail on what I did that smooth the deal. He is currently having a talk with the prime minister and some, probably discussing further details. I tidied up the papers. "Come on a walk with me," Rose suddenly called me. I look up at her and then to Darren. "I've told him that I'm borrowing you," she added. I raised half of my eyebrow to her. As soon as I finish packing the paper, she told me to follow her. "Come on!"

Rose walked in front of me, leading our way. "You don't have any guard with you?" I asked after noticing no one follow us after sometimes. "No, I asked Father not to," she said. We head towards the garden. After passing several areas, we arrived at a building. "This is my palace, come on in," she said.

We sat in a living room. The maids have served us several snacks an tea. "Tell me, Caden," Rose started while sipping his tea, "do you want a change of job?" She put the glass on the table, "Rather than just being a butler in your country, work with me here. You notice how unique this world right? Even before I contribute to the technologies, they already had several advanced one. With how medieval their lifestyles are, it's like there's some kind of missing link," she said.

I really want to. I've been so bored with my works at home. Even though Dorsenburg is a small country in terms of land, I think I still can explore more here. But... "I'm not his butler?" I started. "Well, isn't that a good thing? That means you don't have to follow him, right?" Rose immediately comes with her persuasion. "He's my husband," I said. The looks on her face immediately change, "Seriously?" Rose said in shocked. "I hope it's a joke," I replied at her sipping some tea. "Cad, do you understand how odd the biological system in this world?" she asked. I smiled, "There will always be the first time for everything." She still looks shocked, confused. "Wait, if he is your husband, why you act like his butler?" she said."I was supposed to be the translator for them. Even Though my service is not needed," I said, "Oza actually did a decent job."

"Don't trust rumors"

"And how about your country's reputation for being so alienated?"

"We just try our best to protect this land. There's something here that wasn't supposed to exist," she said in a low tone. "Okay, enough about us. Tell me, are you okay being treated that way? I mean, even I can see that he only treats you like his servant, even though it's should only be a disguise."

She must remember me who I rule a world and was one of the strongest beings. Once upon a time. "Yes and no. I've lived for so long that this kind of treatment is no longer affect me," I start, "but that doesn't mean that I don't already created my backup plan." Rose just nodded her head, while bitting a tart. "You know, you can always make this place your back up plan, right? As long as I live, you'll always welcome here," she said. "And for that, I thank you," I said genuinely. 

We enjoy the silence for a while. Rose pick up another snack while I continue sipping up the tea. "Rose," I called her. "Yes?" she answered. "There is something that has been bothering me since I woke up here," I start slowly, putting down the glass. Rose just nodded her head, telling me that she is listening. "Could man get pregnant in this world?" I asked. "I was shocked at first, but yes they can," Rose said, "especially if they're omega." Suddenly Rose looked at me, concern, "Don't tell me you are an Omega."

"I'm not, I'm a beta," I said. "Huft... Thank God," Rose sighed. I lean forward, confused, "And why is that?" I asked. Rose raise her shoulder, "Male beta is not much different from normal man, so you probably won't get affected with the unusual things that only happened in this world," Rose started, a little uncertainty can be heard from her voice. "You don't want to be an omega, Caden. Omega experience heat cycle, like an animal asking to be breed. And the scary thing is they could! No matter what their gender is, males and females could get pregnant. Not to add up how fertile they are on their heat," she explained. I just listen to her, trying to digest the information. I've known it from Caden's memory and the books, but having your old acquaintance confirming this is a difficult reality check. "Well, you know, I've said this world is so odd. Not like supernatural odd, but like odd odd," she said. "One of the biggest mystery is how humans here end up having secondary sex," she continued. "Speaking of this matter... This whole thing has actually been on my research. A personal one. I've been searching for the link of origin of this world and the closest normal world and could get your help, as you've experienced more life than I am," she said. I smiled. This thirst for knowledge is what pushed us to live with these overflowing information for a really long time.

The knocks on the doors disturb our small meeting. "Come in," Rose said. The door swung open, showing a butler, "My Lady, I've been instructed to bring the man back," he said.

"Looks like our nostalgic time is up."
