Chapter Twenty Three
Lilac's P.O.V
"How are my sexy mama and soon to be favorite little person in the world doing", Braylon said as he strolled into our room from the pack house. I got used to all the alpha work he has to do besides pack females come by every day to check on me now that Braylon ordered that I'm put on total house arrest.
Just one more month to go.
"So beautiful", Braylon whispered placing a kiss on my forehead lips and belly. "My perfect hippo", he said and I shot Braylon a glare and said "I'm fat not ugly", I defended. "Hippo's can be cute", Braylon defended. "Yah right", I uttered rolling my eyes at him.
Sometime I just wish Braylon would go back to his quiet reserved brooding self, he gets too cocky for his own good. "You're plump and it's natural for a pregnant woman to be plump", he said. "Braylon!" I huffed. "Yes pancake", he grinned innocently.
"Plump is worse than fat", I said. "Can I get you some cupcakes to make you feel better?" he said. "I'm a foodie not a comfort eater", I said feigning anger but I just couldn't for some reason I've not been moody or angry or emotional since I found out I was pregnant. I've just been extremely happy. "So no on the cupcakes", Braylon asked as if that was even an option.
"Strawberry cupcakes with chocolate frosting and cherry, vanilla and honey sprinkles oh plus Banana and peanut muffin please", I grinned. "No wonder you can be a hippos second cousin", Braylon mumbled as he took off his shirt and I grabbed the nearest pillow and flung it at him. But the accursed alpha reflexes helped him catch it and instead of crying out in agony which was never happening in the first place, he chuckled in amusement and the sound of his laugh just made my heart happy again.
Told you, I just can't get angry.
Before I could come up with a lame retort, "I've got you Magnolia cupcakes", was heard as Kaia entered the room with a box of cupcakes only to turn around and avert her eyes from my mates on display abs. "Sorry I didn't know he was back", she said almost walking back out of the room till I shouted waited.
"CUPCAKES COME BACK TO ME!!!" I cried out and shooed Braylon to the bathroom and Kaia gave me the box of cupcakes and sat beside me on the bed. "See this is why Kaia's my favorite", I yelled to Braylon. Whoa I never thought I'd ever say that!
"Can you please go back to being arch nemeses", Braylon shouted back. "Not a chance", Kaia and I both said. Kaia becoming beta female was the best thing that could happen forgiving everything she did in the past, you know plotting to throw a meatball at me, wasting perfectly good spaghetti by dumping it on me and let's not forget the time she tried to make me a Freddy Kruger incarnate, she's not that bad.
"So Trey, Nessa, Riley and August are coming over today", she said and almost on cue all the four just waltzed into the room. We have crap security!
"Oh my god Martin, Mishra and Mystic have gotten so huge", I said. Looking at my six months old niece and Nessa and Trey's five months old twins. "Well so have you", Auggie said. "Why can't you just miss me and leave it at that", I said. "I love you too sis", Auggie said.
"So not that I don't love you all and I'm happy to see you but what are you'll doing here don't you have a pack to run Mr. Alpha and Beta", I said to Auggie and Trey. Trey and I had gotten back onto the friends boat we'll never be as close as we used to be but at least we still are in each other's lives.
"Trey and Nessa are living to go meat up with mum and dad in New Orleans about some pack treat we have with the Pack and Riley and I have to be here for Alphas Gala dear sister if you've forgotten Black Hurricane is hosting this year", Auggie said.
The Alphas Gala, I had totally forgotten about that I doubt if Braylon would even let me attend. It won't matter that were the hosts.
"Okay all of you out, time for me to spend time with my mate", Braylon said walking out of the closet in a black sweatshirt and grey sweatpants. After chasing everybody else out he laid beside me placing a loving hand on my baby bump and cuddling me while we watched Dylan O'Brian's Love and Monsters.
Just a few more weeks, baby. A few more weeks that I can't wait for.
