[The Twilight Saga·Carlyle] Hidden God

Kinlunga is a small town in western Alaska, USA. ——It is almost surrounded by mountains, and the climate is dry and cold.365 days a year, basically 300 days are covered with dark clouds.

But the people living in the small town of Kinlunga are not as gloomy as the weather here, on the contrary, Edmund thinks, they are all very enthusiastic.

Especially after learning that he was Dr. Cullen's youngest son.

Edmond, who got Carlisle's promise, would visit the town's hospital almost every day. ——This makes those doctors, nurses, patients and their family members who are "secretly in love", "longing for", and "worshiping" Carlisle very happy.

To get close to Edmund is to get close to that perfect and handsome surgeon. —At least they all thought so.

And there is a reason for the boy to be patient and show off his cuteness everywhere in the hospital, begging to be stroked. ——If he gets along with them, not only can he get a lot of delicious food, but he can also get some useful information.

For example like this -

"Edmond, do you think your current parents treat you well? How is their normal relationship?"

Then the boy understood. ——This person is interested in Carlisle, and he may want to find a chance to hook... Cough, Carlisle doesn't like to hear him say that word.Anyway, Edmund wouldn't let her have too many chances to hook... Cough, get close to Carlisle.

Another example is this——

"Edmund, these are the biscuits I made this morning. I brought you some. Well—you can take them home for your family to taste."

So the boy would eat them all without leaving any. ——No matter what you do, Carlisle and the others won't like it (they only like blood), so I will do it for you.

In short, Edmund has been doing well in the hospital these days, and his popularity is basically at the same level as Carlisle.

At this time, this beautiful mixed-race boy was leaning on the door frame with his shoulders shrunken like a thief, a pair of dazzling blue [I knew this word would be harmonized] cat eyes were watching the scene in the ward vigilantly ——

"Thank you so much, Dr. Cullen." A blond woman was standing beside the hospital bed wringing her fingers and looking at Carlisle gratefully. ——She looks about 25 or [-] years old, with average facial features, but her figure can be said to be particularly hot.

The woman was wearing a fitted cardigan black cardigan and a thick bright red skirt with a Scottish touch, and knee-high boots adorned with gold sequins.

And - the boy believed that, just because of Carlisle's height, he could see her intentionally exposed breasts [this word must be separated] as soon as he lowered his head.

But the better thing is that Carlisle's attention was all on the tablet in his hand, and he didn't even glance at the woman.

Edmund smacked his lips. ——If Carlisle dared to stare at that part, he would definitely shave off Carlisle's golden hair with a pair of scissors for Esme.

"He's recovering well." Carlisle raised his head and looked at the middle-aged and elderly woman who was half leaning on the bed. "I think you can be discharged from the hospital tomorrow."

"Tomorrow? So soon?" The blond woman looked a little surprised. "Oh—I mean—it's Dr. Cullen. My mother is going to be out of the hospital so soon."

"I think it's more due to the nurses." Carlisle showed an elegant smile with a detached attitude.

"Oh, yes. Uh—I was thinking—" The woman said as if she didn't notice Carlisle's attitude towards her, "Dr. Cullen, do you have time after get off work today? I Thought we could treat you to dinner? Er—to show our thanks?"

Before Carlisle opened his mouth to refuse, the boy who was hiding aside and watching the development of the situation rushed in through the door——

"Daddy!!!" Edmund rushed towards Carlisle like a small bomb, and wrapped his white hands around the latter's waist. "Daddy, I got a movie ticket!!! It's tonight!!!——you're going to see it with me, right? You said you would be with me yesterday!"

Then he stared at Carlisle with those intoxicating blue eyes.

"Well, I'll accompany you." Carlisle stroked the boy's black hair with a smile. ——With his sense of smell and hearing as a vampire, how could he not know that the boy has been following him?

This little guy is very territorial like a wild animal.

The "Daddy" that was deliberately yelled with his throat was obviously swearing his sovereignty to everyone present. ——That was his father, and no one was allowed to rob him.

"Great!!!" The boy cheered, and at the same time he didn't forget to take a look at the woman. —The latter seemed a little awkward.

"I'm sorry, miss." Carlisle said softly while stroking the boy's head, "I need to be with my son tonight."

"Well, yeah, family comes first after all. —Your son is lovely, how old is he?"

"9 years old!" Edmund said before Carlisle again, "I'm 9 years old this year!"

Carlisle smiled. ——His boy really cared about his childish behavior.If others know that he is still acting like a baby to his father at the age of 13, then he will definitely find a hole to jump into.Well, if you don't find a hole, dig one before jumping.

"He is my recently adopted child, and because of his young age, he is very clingy to me." Carlisle said softly, "Maybe I won't be able to spare time in the near future."

"Oh... what a pity." The woman bit her lip, looking extremely disappointed.

Edmund pressed his face against the fabric at Carlisle's waist, showing a triumphant expression that no one else could see.

———————————————————————————————————————————————— ——————————

"Carlisle! Movie tickets!" Edmund pulled out two pieces of blue paper from his pocket like magic and put them on Carlisle's desk.

"I thought you were just joking." Carlisle put his white coat on the back of the chair and reached out to pick it up. ——This is a pass for two movie theaters in the town. As long as it is not IMAX, you can watch others. "Where did you buy it yourself?"

"No, they are the prizes of biological experiment No. 1." The boy raised his chin, as if he was waiting for Carlisle to praise him.

"You are doing well, my boy." For children, Carlisle has never been stingy with his appreciation. ——He believes that excellence is a habit, and praise from time to time is the best help to maintain this habit.

Edmund grinned happily.

"Are you going today?" Carlisle asked.

"Well. It's better to go today." The boy rolled his eyes, "Can I?"

"can."

"Great! - I'm going to call Esme!" Edmund ran to the low coffee table with a rattling sound. ——His cell phone is on there.

Wait, why did the boy say to ask Alice to pick him up later?Don't you want to watch a movie?

Only then did Carlisle realize that there seemed to be something wrong.

"There!—have a pleasant evening, Carlisle!" said Edmund cheerfully.

"Who am I going with?" Carlisle asked suspiciously.

"With Esme, of course." The boy tilted his head and looked at him with a "what's the problem?" expression.

"Oh, I thought it was you."

Edmund laughed.

"Don't you think I'm always taking up some of your alone time?—it's the weekend! Better to relax!"

Carlisle raised his eyebrows. ——It was only then that he realized that he had forgotten such an important thing.

He didn't tell the boy that he and Esme were just a couple in name, and he always treated the latter as his own sister.

So now Edmund, of course, would feel that something was wrong about always possessing him.

How could he make such a low-level mistake?

Realizing this, Carlisle rubbed his temples helplessly.

"Carlisle?" the boy called suspiciously, "What's the matter?"

"Cough—Ed." Carlisle sat down next to the boy, naturally crossed his index fingers and put his arms on his lap, "I think we need to talk."

"what?"

———————————————————————————————————————————————— ——————————

"What?! Single?!" Edmund almost choked himself to death after hearing Carlisle's explanation. —what had he just heard? !

Carlisle says he's been alive for over 300 years but has always been alone? !

Esme was rescued by Carlisle many years ago and became his sister? !

In order to deceive others, create a legal identity, and reduce troubles, did they call them husband and wife? !

Why did you tell him such an important thing now? !

"So Esme is not 'mother' but 'aunt'?!" The boy felt dizzy.

(Imagine if suddenly one day your father told you with a serious face that your mother is not your mother, she is my sister. In fact, I am still single. - what would you think?

What you think, Edmund thinks. )

"Sorry, it was my negligence.—forgot to tell you such a thing."

"How come? I think you are a good match!"

"Didn't you notice that we each have our own room?—vampires with a partner share a room with each other."

"...Did I do something bad these days?" The boy who realized it later said in a muffled voice.

"Ok?"

"I mean—since you're single, I shouldn't—"

"Ed." Carlisle interrupted the boy, "You've done a good job.—We don't get close to other people to protect our own secrets."

"But—" said Edmund suspiciously, "what about me? You were very kind to me when I was in the hospital.—Of course, it's the same now."

"You're special, we're family.—Alice sees it."

"She will adopt me when she sees you?"

"Yes.—She saw that I would adopt you when you were 17 years old." Carlisle reached out to straighten the boy's messy skirt, "Since it will happen sooner or later, I don't mind bringing the date forward."

"17 years old? It feels so far away."

"Trust me, it will be soon." Carlisle smiled.

"Oh, yes.—For a vampire who has lived for more than 300 years, 4 years is a blink of an eye." The boy said softly, "So do you want to get married once?"

"I don't have that plan for the time being.—So you can continue the work of 'confirming the territory'." Carlisle pulled the boy into his arms, "Until I tell you that I want to get married?"

"...Okay.—but let me be up front: my standards [in choosing a stepmother] are pretty high."

Carlisle grinned.
