I jolted awake as I heard the door open . Before it even opened, I knew it was Alaric because I could perceive his scent. His traitorous scent.
Quickly, I got odd the flow and fixed my hair.
I had cried myself to sleep last night. Worried about my kids, life, and how my mate would be doing.
I licked my palms and cleared my face to wipe any trace of tears. I rolled my hair into a messy ponytail and sat on the bed.
The door opened, revealing Alaric with a covered plastic plates and a bottle of water. He had this uncertain look on his face as he had no idea if I still want to split him in two.
“Greetings, Luna Rain” he said.
His voice was low, like he has lost his voice or does want to talk.
“I brought food for you before you prepare for the day’s event”
Again, I was silent.
My gaze remained on him as he walked to the bed and placed the food on it. His eyes roamed around my body as he uses to when he would check me out for wounds.
His eyes had this pity, regrets, and sadness. But I don’t care!
If he had any issues, he would have just told me and I would help him. Even if Rex would refuse, I will still help him.
“You are healing just fine as I expected” He said as he walked a bit away from me.
I rolled my eyes and looked around the room for the first time. I didn’t have time to look at it yesterday because I was busy crying over my kids and fuming.
The room was still gray, the big bed and it’s simple white bed sheet. There was a door at the left had side, I assumed that it would be the bathroom and toilet.
“You need to need and drink water for your health” Alaric sais in a pleading tone “I know you would probably hate me but you are still my responsibility and if anything should happen to you, Rex would kill me”
Rex would kill him?
I scoffed.
Slowly, I looked at his face.
He had his same face, same healthy body and same guilt.
My eyes followed his as I looked at the bed. I grabbed the bottle of water, looked at it and back to his face.
“You slept on the floor last night?”
I stood up.
Each steps I took towards made him move back, taking each cautious step with his hands in front of him.
“Rex would kill you?” I asked him.
Not satisfied with his silent, I threw the bottle water at him bit he dodged it. It was like he knew I was going to do it.
“I gave birth five days ago, Alaric! Five fvcking days ago!” I growled.
My blood boiled as I looked down at the garment I was wearing. I had it since yesterday after I ripped my clothes.
“What if I kill you first?” I asked him with a smile on my face.
The smile lasted for a few seconds before disappearing. I was ready to shred my garment as long as I would kill Alaric today.
“I haven’t seen my babies” I said in a low voice.
I would love to hear him scream. I want to hurt him so bad that he would bed to die but something was wrong.
I couldn’t shift.
I tried, tried, and attempt to even just jump at him but immediately I did that, I felt a sharp pain in my chest. Like a dagger was in my heart, twisting it in an anti-clockwise position.
“Luna! Are you alright?” Alaric asked.
I snubbed him. He was no use anyway and I want him dead.
I fell on my knees with my hands on my chest. Panting, I tried to see if breathing in a certain way would stop the pain and it worked.
“What did you make me drink?” I asked.
Alaric looked as surprised as ever. He was already closed to me and tried to help me up but I grabbed his wrist. I sat on him, punched him right in the face and screamed.
That pain in my heart!
Quickly, Alaric turned me over. He rushed over to the bottle water on the floor and the door opened. Emma’s scent and straight leg entered before I could see her face.
“You are going to be fine, Rain” Emma smirked.
Although I was feeling pain but I smirked.
“It’s Luna for you, witch” I spat at her.
I noticed that as I got relaxed, the pain began to subside and soon, it was all gone.
“There,” Emma said as she walked to the bed and sat “If you try to shift, you get the pain, if you try to hurt someone, you get the pain, and if you feel you can’t die…” She paused for a few seconds a she rubbed the necklace she had wore on her wrist.
Her lips had that sly smirk as she looked me dead in the eyes, daring me to do it.
“If you think you can’t die, shift and find out for yourself”
I watched as Alaric walke to drop the water on the bed an walked to the door.
“Hey guilty pig. You know you don’t have to give her food” Emma called him.
I saw Alaric clenched and unclenched his fist. They were little but I was tiny furs appearing and disappearing as Alaric tried to control his shift.
“A pit is much better than a useless witch who got rejected my her own kind” Alaric said.
He turned back to look at me, bowed slightly and walked out.
The door opened and a red headed you lady walked in with a clothe bag. She dropped it on the bes and looked at me.
I ignored her.
She soon got to the other door amd to my assumption, it was the bathroom. She stay in for a while and came out later with a professional smile on her face.
“Ma’am, It’s time to have your bath” she said.
I rolled my eyes and looked at Emma. They really want to make me feel comfortable even after they kidnapped me.
“The water is hot but good. If you want, I can make it lukewarm or cold” she suggested.
This lady look young, probably in her most youthful age. Her curly red hair was packed in a top bum, her olive green eyes matched with her tan olive skin. Her small red lips was shinny, reminding me of how Camila used to apply make up.
“What’s your name?” I asked her.
“Tina”
“Leave up, Tina” I said.
Immediately she left, I turned to and smiled. She looked fustrated, like she was already tired of me as I walked to her.
“You want me to bath”
She didn’t say anything.
Not even when I licked my palm and rubbed it on her face.
“Make me” I said to her face.
As I walked pass her, I went to the bed, sat and sighed. I was getting too excited of how silence and defeated Emma looked but as I thought, the witch had other ways.
“Those things. Those tiny puppies of yours are going to be there”
She called my babies things!!!
Their names are Chloe and Chase not things.
I wanted to tell her that bit I didn’t. I just told he to come get me when I am ready and she left.
Just as we agreed, she came back after I was dressed. The sky blue dress was my perfect size but a little tight around my breasts.
It has two splits, from my thighs to the floor and the back drop, covering the matching silver heels I was given.
Everyone one was waiting for me, like they were expecting me for a long time. It was strange on how there were not much, just a room with a hall filed mean looking men and few women.
The table really looked like a big feast, for a very huge celebration. Pfffff, so kidnaping seem like a huge celebration?
I followed Emma to here she pointed out for me and sat. Soon, Kia arrived and filled one of the empty seat.
He greeted the people, telling them that the time they have all wiated for have arrived and they cheered.
Kia is crazy and I know that.
He sat back in his seat, pointed at the other empty chair and smiled.
“Your surprise is coming”
“And I hope Rex cut your head off” I said without thinking.
Kia shook his head in disappointment and sighed. He adjusted, looked me flatly and muttered.
“I don’t know why you think so high about that boy but, I want you to eat so you can see your kids” he said.
I followed his gaze to see two women carrying my babies. They had this sweet smile on their faces like they were in love with my kids. As they got closer, She let me see their faces and when I was about to carry them, Kia interrupted.
“You will carry them after you eat” He said with a soft smile.
“After that, we will talk about which one of them you will want to leave just as Rex and I have discussed” Kia said.
Rex had discussed?
No! Not again.
Rex promised that he would not hide anything from me. I believe him.
I was about defending my man when I heard a familiar voice.
“Hello, little Rain” I turned to face Brook.
Shit!
He didn’t die?
