RAIN’S POV
A week has past and i already came with the conclusion that I would stay. What I didn’t understand was why older Brook and Rex were in trance.
I haven’t really seen Klaus and Emma since but Mira told me that they are fine. She even told me about the applying to be part of the pack and I had no idea about how to feel.
For a whole week, all I did was nag over my back pain, Lower stomach pain and sudden urge to each. One time, I tried to sneak out very late in the night and when Rex asked, I told him that needed to pee.
It was indeed a very confusing situation.
The evening seem dark. The evening sun, mixed with blue and gray at the last minute of 7 pm. Having a mate like Rex seem like a blessing more than a curse. He made me a camp chair, strong and soft at the same time.
Sitting with Mira in the field, a field Rex had ordered for the Luna alone.
The warm breeze kissed my skin, making me hungry for sweetened clay and mint.
sweetened clay and mint.
I had no idea what it would look like, I just felt like that was what I needed to eat. Bloated, having the urge to pee for the 10th time in a minute, I grumbled.
“Let me gist! You are pressed again” Mira asked.
I grinned.
Thinking about getting up was challenging so I just saw there.
“sweetened clay and mint” I muttered.
Mira looked at me.
Her flat expression made me felt like ie as crazy till I smiled.
“One time when I was still at my previous Pack, I tried to eat clay”
Mira adjusted.
Her gaze roamed around my face, stomach, and back to my face.
“You know I had it hard as a late shifter” I shrugged.
I did that because I was trying to justify my desperate attempt for remedy so I could shift.
I gave a sad smile when the memories came back. Clear, it was as if it happened yesterday.
How Brook to my room one evening, he talked to me about much hope and good life I would have even I finally shift. He proceeded on tell me that he is doing all of it because he love me.
“Luna?”
I blinked.
Mira still sat there with her eyes wide open. I was certain that her ears were also wide open for the story.
“You stopped at being a late shifter” she reminded me.
I rolled my eyes playfully as I sat up in the chair. My full bladder gave me the pee warning again and without warning, I stood up and walked a bit far from where we sat.
I ignored her comments about having someone see my pregnancy, I just adjusted undies, spread my legs and pee.
“Men have to get it easy, I envy them for that”
As we joke about men life being different to women, Rex arrived.
Mira excused herself and I was alone with Rex.
There was a minute of silence.
Just us staring at stuff, anything, except ourselves.
“I am curious” Rex said.
Without the rest of that talk, I already knew what he would say. Although, I developed the uncertain spirit whenever I am with him, that didn’t stop me from checking out his face.
His sharp jaw.
His small lips, making me wonder what he would have looked like as a kid with a small one.
He would definitely look like he doesn’t have any lips.
I imagined his face without lips and chuckled.
“Yes, you get that too right?” Rex said in a cheerful manner.
Confused, I just nodded.
“And I told that I will let him beat me in the arm wrestling if you give birth to a boy” he gave this small chuckle.
I laughed.
Not because I was enjoying his story, but because of how absent-minded I was. How absent-minded I planned to beat him up, give him lots of kisses.
“The humans have this baby shower party and I was wondering if you did like something like that too” Rex suggested.
I just looked at him.
Giving him the silent treatment I knew he hated.
It wasn’t my fault he did what he did. He would have to suffer and watch me go for my scans and check up alone.
My chcek up.
I am supposed to see Alaric today and get precipitation for my horrible back ache.
In my petty and vulnerable state, I acted tough. When I needed Rex to help me get up, I just glared at him till he did it.
‘My back hurts, I need to see Alaric’ I told him the the mindlink.
Rex froze.
I wasn’t looking at him but I could tell that he was trying to check if I really mind linked him when I could just say it.
The truth is that I love Rex. Be it that he was reckless or anything, I already forgave me and matter of fact, he is my mate.
‘You should be grateful, Instead of keeping silent’ I mind linked him again.
The time, I earned a hug.
A very tight one just like the day of my trance.
I inhaled his scent as he placed kisses all over my head, forehead and face.
“Thank you so much” he said.
He looked at my face, hugged me again and bent to kiss my baby.
‘We are still not in talking terms’ I mind linked him.
Rex laughed.
He swept me off my feet as he walked more into the pack. I think he wants to get to the pack’s hospital since I talked about my meeting with Alaric.
‘Do you still want me to do a scan with you?’ he asked ‘please, just this once’
I didn’t reply. I just stayed in his arms, enjoying his free ride.
Rex had insisted that we check the sex of the baby. It was like he needed to decide if he would keep me for the gender or send me off but each way, I had no idea of my plans.
I just laid on the bed, Waiting for Alaric to apply that cold stuff on my Belly. Rex at the other side seem obviously anxious.
Gosh! I can’t believe I got pregnant 7 months ago.
Although I have being having some stomach pain, Restlessness, and uncontrollably peeing, I was still assured that everything with my baby was fine.
My gaze remained Alaric as he began the process. His gaze would get calm, and confused.
“Luna, you said you are 7 months?” He asked.
I nodded.
He did the stuff again, and again.
“Do you feel pain?” he asked.
There was this level of concern in his voice. Although, as the pack’s doctor, I expected his reaction.
“Just back pain” I said.
Alaric looked at Rex, smiled and said .
“Well, Alpha. I thought you both should prepare for your baby girl anytime this week ” Alaric said.
A baby girl!
