Chapter 313: The possibility
Alanis.
"Has anyone co over?’’ Darrien asks with a smile on his face. I haven’t seen Darrien since he left the community, he looks happier than before he left. Whatever Jabi is doing is working. I don’t even want him to co back if that ans he will always have this glow on his face.
"Nope, what are you asking?’’ I can tell that he is beating around the bush right now. there is sothing on his mind and he doesn’t just want to co out and say it.
He shakes his head "Never mind. So how are things going? I heard a rumor," his eyes shift lower until he is staring at my stomach. I raise a brow because I want him to say it outright.
"Nothing’s different,’’ he manages with a straight face. I know he wants to ask if I am really pregnant. He probably heard it from Eligio. I an, this is not a secret. Everyone knows—even father. I told El to let him know and he hasn’t said a word. I know he is already disappointed in . I an, there is no way I could add to that disappointnt. I have reached the lowest bar already.
"What were you expecting?’’ I cross my arms over my chest and he watches
intently. He is looking for the bump and yes, there is a bump but it is so tiny that you will have to see
shirtless. Beau is the only one that has seen my bump. He is the only one that I have shown that vulnerability. I am still insecure about the whole process but anyti I think about what Selene showed . I know that there is a light at the end of this pregnancy tunnel. I know that this is a blessing that I can’t let go of.
"You are not telling
sothing? I thought we had a new relationship?’’ he asks with a frown. Darrien is a drama queen. He has always been a drama queen but now, we do have a new relationship.
I love him with all my heart.
I am closer to him than I ever thought I would be.
"We do, but you were on a vacation, so I didn’t think disturbing you was the best thing at the mont."
He scoffs "Dude, I live for disturbances. You had big news; you should have told ." he accuses
with a scowl.
Like I said—drama queen.
"You already know, and I am sure that is why you are here in the first place.’’
He shakes his head "I actually ca here for another reason.’’
I raise a brow "Which is?’’
He looks away from
"My baby missed the community,’’ he lies. I know when Darrien is lying and right now, he is full of shit. I just don’t know what shit he is on about now.
"I guess congratulations are in order?’’
I roll my eyes "Yeah they are.’’
He laughs "Dude, the weirdest shit keeps happening to you. I an, first, you end up with a vamp and now you are pregnant. Why aren’t you terrified?"
I don’t want to think about the tis before my acceptance of this. Darrien has no idea how scared I was. Hell, I am still scared.
"You know, weird things happened to you. your mate is a fucking Hybrid,’’ I remind him "who’s to say this isn’t going to happen to him too.’’
I am teasing him. but there is the possibility. I an,
getting pregnant might not be normal, but nothing about my relationship with Beau is normal. Darrien is the sa. Jabi is just like . he could end up the sa way.
"You have got to be kidding. That can’t happen right?’’ he stares at .
He is asking
like I have any clue about the supernatural things that happen in our world. the goddess has her plan. One that we can’t choose on our own. granted, I appreciate everything she has done so far but it is all out of our control. "Jabi can’t handle being pregnant. my baby is still a baby, how will he have a baby when he is still one?’’
I burst out in laughter because Darrien never ceases to amaze
"You are a fucking joke." I tell him as I stand up from the bed. he walks over to .
"Don’t scare
like that, please. We are not ready for all that.’’
I shrug "You should prepare yourself. You never know what would happen." I am still ssing with him and it is working. He rolls his eyes and before he can respond, soone knocks on my door. I walk over to it and Witt, one of the people on guard duty today is on the other side of the door.
"Soone is here to see you,’’ He tells .
"Who?’’ I ask him because I wasn’t expecting anyone. I hope it is not Russ. When Beau sprung him up on
the other day, I wasn’t ready for him. Russ is a lot and I don’t need that right now.
"He didn’t tell
who he is but he told
you would be expecting him.’’
With everything that has happened in the community. With Cassius and his tornt. I wouldn’t expect Witt to just let anyone in.
"Did you let him in?’’ that is the first thing I can ask. I have to protect myself and the community. The fact that the person refused to disclose his na, just shows that there is more.
"No id dint."
Darrien walks with
as we go out of the house and to the gates. My heart races in my chest, for fear and worry, crawls within.
"You don’t have to worry about anything," he assures . I am suspicious of him because he ca to the community wanting to know sothing and it seems to
like he knows who is at the other side of the gates. Witt plays with the locks until it clicks and I walk out completely shocked by the person.
"Father.’’
