Chapter 353 - Baby Shower?
Dawn watched her leaving, her eyes wide with shock. How did she know about her situation? As far as she rembered, Bree was nowhere near the bathroom when she was bitten. Then what was she talking about? Died which day? Thousands of questions bounced around her head as she continued to stare at Bree.
Daryn wrapped his arms across her shoulder and said, "It is not the ti to think that Dawn."
Dawn looked up at him with bewildernt. Her skin tingled and a shiver skittered down her spine. "Did you hear what she said?"
"I did," he whispered. "Let us go." He forced her to walk with him. On the inside he knew what to do next.
Dawn walked with him, dazed. She didn't know whether to think about the case or to think about Bree what just said. She pressed her hand to her mouth and sohow stifled a whimper. The scene in which she was bitten flashed across her mind and beads of sweat lined her eyebrows. She clung her arms to herself. This was so beyond twisted. Why was Bree saying that? What connection did she have? As far as Dawn knew, she didn't even sll like a werewolf or a neotide, then why did she even ntion it? How did she know? Or was it a re consequence? It could be possible that her condition must have beco viral amongst the staff in the course. But it was just a bite. Who dies of a bite? And why would Bree say that she wished she had died? Nothing made sense and the more she thought about it the more she got agitated and worried and nervous.
When they sat in the car, she said, "I don't want to go to the office today."
"Okay darling," Daryn assured her. He stroked her back and made her lean her head on his shoulder. "Stop thinking about it baby."
"I can't Daryn. It brings up the mories of the day," she whimpered.
"Then think that you got a direction to find out about it," he replied sternly. "I don't want my Luna to break so easily."
She sagged against him and closed her eyes.
In order to change the topic, he said, "By the way, since you have entered the seventh month, soone in the clan ntioned that we should have a baby shower."
Dawn got distracted imdiately. "Baby shower?"
He nodded with a smile. "Hmm…" He rubbed her arm excitedly. "Have you thought about it?"
"I don't even know when to do it Daryn. Is there anyone who can guide us? Or let's just take help of event planners?" she asked. Her earlier tense state dissipated imdiately. She stroked her stomach with pride. "I will be a mommy soon!" Suddenly she stilled.
"What happened baby?" he asked. Daryn sympathized so much with her that he wanted to give the world to her. The girl was alone. There was not a single woman who helped her or advised her. Most of the won of the clan maintained distance from her because she was a neotide and because now she was even giving birth to his babies. They either thought of her as an adversary or they disliked her. Only Brenda was close to her and she was in Ixoviya. He decided to call her that instant. "What is it Dawn?" he asked her again.
Her breath hitched. "Will I be in jail when I will give birth to my babies?"
He clenched his teeth. "There's not a single jail that can contain you Dawn, and you know what I will do if that happens. You are the wife of Daryn Silver!"
She gave him a feeble smile. Cupping his face in her hands, she said, "I know that my alpha is a tough guy."
"About the baby shower…?"
They carried on talking about it until they reached the Silver House. Daryn had passed on the information to her office that she wouldn't co for the day. He called Reyna to sit with her and decide about the baby shower ceremony while he went to attend a eting. On his way to the eting room, he got a call from Caleb. He picked up the call in the first ring.
"Caleb, bro, how are you? When are you coming back? Do you want to co there? Should I send Neal? I am too worried about you!"
There was a tense pause. "She is too unwell Daryn… and too fragile…" Was he crying? "She doesn't want to co as of now… but I am trying to convince her." He heard him exhaling heavily. "I can't live without her, and she doesn't even love …"
Daryn knew it was the mate bond.
"What do you want to do Caleb?" he asked. "Because right now I can do anything."
"Thank Daryn. I will take care of this ss myself. Give ti. I need to figure out how she is going to survive. Each passing day is torture for ."
"Why don't you bring her to Ixoviya? They want to crown you as their king. I am sure there is a solution for her in the Lore."
"dical science has failed. They have given up. Her brain tumor is growing, extending its tentacles inside. What solution can the Lore have?" said Caleb in a defeating tone.
"You never know brother. Just convince her to co here."
"I will try…"
"What's her na?" asked Daryn out of curiosity.
"Elize."
"Ah! Nice na," he remarked.
"She is lovely. You have to see her. She is the most beautiful woman in the world. A year older than Dawn." He laughed as he talked about her fondly.
Soone called him. "Oh, talk to you later Daryn. Her father is calling ."
When Caleb disconnected the call, there was a smile on Daryn's face. It would be so nice to have the family together. Dawn and him with their kids, talking over wine with Caleb and Elize, in a warm cozy room near hearth. Such a wonderful thought.
Daryn stepped into the eting room.

Kirk Lindsey was furious as hell. "Why did you go to et Dawn Silver?"
"Well because Erika needs money!" she said as she slamd the table. "Do you realize that Erika's face needs plastic surgery?"
"That doesn't an that you can go to Dawn and ask her for money! If she wants she can slap a blackmail case against you!" Kirk said in a nacing voice. "And why didn't you tell ? Why did you keep it a secret?"
Bree stared at him. "I— I thought it was just a w— way to get out of this nace. Moreover I was doing it on behalf of E— Erika," she stuttered.
"You will not et her again," Kirk warned.
"I don't even want to," she shrugged.
"Now tell all the details of your eting."
After Bree had told every detail, she left his office. She was extrely anxious. Jason was waiting for her in her car and she yelled at him. "You bastards! Because of you I am facing so much trouble! If you don't give my promised money, I swear I am going to take each one of you out!"
"Calm down Bree," he said. "Tell what happened."

Daryn walked back in his room to be greeted by Dawn's laughter. His wolf relaxed and he grinned. He saw her laughing at Reyna's jokes. As soon as she saw him, she said, "Baby, we have decided when to have the baby shower!"
