Chapter 80 - So Humble...
It was a Saturday the next day and there were no classes, so Adrianna didn't go to college. Instead, she stayed at home and studied while helping Ed with odd jobs. Since she didn't go to college, Dmitri also didn't go. The center of his universe was next to him. Why would he go anywhere else?
He continued sleeping until the afternoon and only woke up to have lunch. Ed fumed at his princely behavior. While Ed was running around the cottage to clean it and Adrianna was either helping him or studying, Dmitri was only sleeping. When he came out of Adrianna's room just to have his meal, Ed lost it.
"Dmitri, you should help Adrianna clean the house. She has been working since morning till now," he retorted.
Adrianna looked at her grandfather and wondered how much she had done. She saw that Ed was really angry with Dmitri, so she didn't say a word. As for Dmitri, he silently listened to Ed while he ate his food. If he wanted to, he could have brought a battery of servants to work around in the house, but that would have meant that he would have to restrict himself from doing what he pleased with Adrianna, anytime and anywhere, an idea he detested.
Dmitri looked at Ed and said, "Umm… what would you like me to do? It seems almost everything is already done." He continued to munch on his bacon.
Ed looked at him angrily. He really was a shameless man. "You need to do the laundry," said Ed, now very angry. Ed thought that if that man had to live with them, he had better work a little.

Dmitri shrugged his shoulders and said, "Okay."
Adrianna laughed at the way Ed scolded Dmitri. "Yes Dmitri, you better do the laundry at least."
So after eating food, Dmitri set on his task. But the problem was that he didn't even know how to start a washing machine. He threw the clothes in it and added twice the amount of washing powder. Then he turned it on and went to the bedroom to be with Adrianna. However, Adrianna was studying so she hardly paid any attention to him. So he picked up a magazine to read and became engrossed in that. All of a sudden, he remembered about the washing machine. He tossed the magazine onto the bed and ran to the laundry room. To his bewilderment, the washing machine had become one huge ball of foam. It wasn't visible, as the foam had spread all around it and the water was draining out of it.
Feeling extremely nervous, he cleared all the foam only to find that he was now also covered in foam. He forgot to switch off the power and because of that, the machine continued to churn out more foam to add to his chagrin. Seeing that there was no solution, he went to Adrianna. Thankfully, Ed was sleeping. Otherwise, Ed would have scolded him again.
Adrianna was shocked to see Dmitri covered in foam. She laughed at him.
"Adri, please help me."
"No, I won't," she replied mischievously.
"Please Adri. I will give you whatever you want," he pleaded.
"Really?"
"Yes!"
"Okay, remember this," she said cutely before getting up to help him. First, she went to clear the foam and then cleaned the area. She set the machine to auto and gave Dmitri a clean towel to clean himself with. But the shameless man stood with his arms outstretched, demanding her to clean him.
When Ed woke up in the evening, he saw that the clothes were neatly folded and placed on the sofa in the living room. He was highly impressed by the fact that even though Dmitri was the supreme alpha, he could do something as menial as laundry. With a huge smile on his face, he went to the kitchen and prepared a nice dinner for him.
Over dinner, he made sure that Dmitri's plate was always full. He even praised him. Adrianna was looking at Dmitri with narrowed eyes as he accepted all the praise without a speck of guilt.
"Son, I am happy that even though you have so many servants around you all the time, you can do small household jobs. These days, it is difficult to find people like you. So humble…" said Ed with eyes full of admiration for him.
"Thank you Ed.," Dmitri nodded in agreement.
"But I have a question for you." Ed became serious.
"What is it?" asked Dmitri, leaning forward.
"You must introduce Adrianna to your clan before you marry her. Don't you think you should host a small party for her?"
Dmitri hadn't even thought of it. "Yes, I should." He looked at Adrianna, wondering how he could have forgotten such an important thing.
"Are you free next Tuesday?" he asked.
Adrianna nodded. But she had to survive the night of the full moon first…
