Chapter Twenty Two
Lilac's P.O.V
After puking my brains out, I laid on the cold tiled floor that soothered my achings.
It’s been five months since Braylon and I started getting freaky. Four since I became Luna. Three since Riley and August revealed that they were having a baby. Two since Kaia and I decided to live in peace and one since I’ve missed my period.
I could hear Braylon mumbling something as his footsteps made their way to the bathroom. The door swung a little wider before he rushed to my side but I was too weak to get off the floor.
“Oh goddess Lilac are you okay”, he said lifting my body of the ground and rushing me to bed. A river of worries and concerns flowed out of Braylon’s mouth but I was too drowsy to concentrate on a word he said.
The next thing I knew after Braylon’s rapid pacing up and down the room was the pack doctor rushing in and checking my vitals before bringing out the big guns. At this point I’d rather an actual gun when the doctor pulled out the hugest syringe I’ve ever seen.
“What the hell is that?!” I screamed and Braylon snickered as he came to my side to comfort me as he rubbed soothing circles on my arm. Not fucking working buddy, that’s a huge ass needle. “It’s just something mild to bring your vitals back to normal, the baby’s taking too much of your energy and blah, blah, blah…..” my mind stopped listening.
“Baby”, Braylon and I whispered simultaneously in disbelief. “I’m sorry. Shit you didn’t know. Congratulations Alpha and Luna”, the doctor said with a prideful and apologetic grin. “Can you give us a moment”, Braylon said and I got worried.
Does he not want the baby? Hell, do I want a baby? I pushed the thought out of my mind immediately knowing what it feels like to feel unwanted, though unplanned I’d love this baby with all of me. Baby, my mind repeated testing it out. It felt so surreal, I’m pregnant.
“Of course Alpha, Luna” with a small bow the pack doctor left the room assuring us he’d be waiting outside.
Braylon took a careful step to sitting beside me on the bed. “How do you feel”, he asked. “Drowsy”, I admitted. “Listen Lilac…” Braylon started in a monotone but I cut him short. “I want it”, I said and he beamed. “I want our baby Braylon”, I said.
“I want our baby too pancake, of course I do. I love you and know I get a chance to love you both”, Braylon said as he placed a palm on my belly. “Don’t you think we’re moving a little fast”, I asked. “We’re moving slower than any other mates I know but this only makes us that ore perfect”, he said. “I want you forever Lilac, we’ll get through life together”, he added.
“Okay”, I said smiling. “Okay”, Braylon agreed. “We’re going to be parents”, I whispered. “And were going to be great at it”, Braylon replied. Braylon mind linked the doctor to come back in.
“So what’s wrong, why do I feel so weak”, I asked. “It’s common in pregnancies were both mates have strong Alpha blood, the baby draws a lot of energy from the mother. It used to cause a lot of Lunas to give out before birth but we got medicine that can help with that now. You’re going to be just fine Luna”, the doctor said.
“Okay”, I said. “You’re about six weeks pregnant so for the next five months you just need to relax and take it easy. Get a lot of rest and eat a lot of nutritional food”, the doctor said. Luckily being lazy and eating is my specialty.
After fighting for a couple minutes I finally let the doctor give me the shot and all the prescribed meds. He left after checking up on me some more. Braylon walked back into the room with a large bucket of blueberries. “Nutritional eating”, he grinned.
“Are you sure they’re not laced with something, I wouldn’t put poisoned berries above you after last time”, I said. “First of all you have to let that go, second it was August’s idea”, Braylon said. “Still can’t believe my brother and mate drugged me”, I said popping a couple blueberries into my mouth.
“We’ve got to tell them today before my mum and dad leave for Bali”, I said pulling out my phone texting everyone in the Silvers family group to come urgently to Black hurricane today. They all texted back worried and I told them to just get they’re asses here. “Done”, I said returning to lavish my berries only to find Braylon and the bucket gone.
That idiot! What part of needs no stress does he not understand. “Brrrrraaaayyyyyyllllloooooooon”, I yelled but the only reply I got was deep chuckles running out of the house.
August and Riley got there first and I had time to play with my one month old niece, Mystic Analia Silvers. She had Riley’s light brown hair it was almost blond and Auggie’s dark brown almost black eyes, she’d put Bambi’s doe eyes to shame. She was small, cute, precious and all around perfect.
“You look fine”, was the first thing my annoying brother said. “Missed you to Auggie”, I said sarcastically hugging my bestie and kidnapping her daughter from her hands in the process. After my mum and dad arrived we called for a pack meeting at our house.
Tension hung in the air as everyone eagerly awaited for what Braylon had to say as I stood by his side with a sleepy Mystic in my arms. “Thank you all for joining us here today”, Braylon started, “The reason we’ve called you all here is a short and smile yet beautiful reason. I would gladly like to inform you that our Luna is pregnant”
Wild cheers erupted from the pack, my parents and Riley rushed to my side. Mum and Riley hugging me, dad patting Braylon on the back a little too hard with that I’m happy for you but if you hurt her I’ll fucking kill you look and before we had noticed August fainted.
