Huntress Luna

Chapter 25: Sybil

The nursery came together quickly and was ready. Sybil made sure that everything was in good shape and that it was placed in the correct place. She had become a control freak over all the details of the nursery. Everyone could finally relax once it was done.

"You are such a control freak. Remind me to never let you design anything again." Margot said.

"What do you mean, I just wanted everything to be perfect. What's wrong with that?"

"What's wrong is the fact that you had us repaint the walls three times because the color was off, we had to rebuild the crib because you thought we built it wrong, the rug wasn't soft enough so we had to replace it, the curtains weren't high enough, you found every excuse possible to make us miserable to get this room perfect. I swear to god you better use this room or so help me I will tear it all apart and make you watch."

"Thank you, guys. I couldn't have done it without your help. Does anyone want sandwiches? I made some." Everyone nodded and walked over to the kitchen.

"Wow, these taste amazing. They actually taste edible today."Kade said. Sybil smacked him. "Ouch, that hurt. Margot, she hit me."

"And I'll hit you even harder if you don't stop acting like a baby," Margot said. Kade pouted. Max rubbed his back to comfort his imaginary pain.

"Since the baby is coming in a month, how about we decide on a name?" August said, helping Sybil sit on the couch.

"Oh, I already came up with one. I was thinking about Hunter. It can be both a girl's or boy's name." Sybil said.

"I actually don't hate that," Margot said. "I was thinking of Alexander or Alexandria." She winked at Sybil mentioning her middle name.

"Oh, what about Kade for a boy and Kada for a girl?" Sybil snacked Kade again.

"No way am I naming my first child after you. You lost the bet, remember."

"What bet?" Max asked.

"When I first found out about her baby, she and I made a bet, it was when an Order prisoner transport got hijacked and the prisoners escaped. We made a bet that whoever could capture the most prisoners would get to name the baby. It was before you came back into her life and also she won."

"The winner got to decide the firstborn child's name of the loser. No way was I losing that one." Sybil laughed.

"That's why I'm never having children. You can't name them then."

"With your track record, a baby is in your near future." Sybil laughed

'Don't jinx me, I am not made to be a father. Oh, that reminds me, I'm gonna have to leave you little Syby. These past couple of months have been fun, but now that you're all reconciled with your people, and I know they can keep others safe from you, Krista has been nagging me about coming back. She said I've taken a long enough and if the baby isn't mine I shouldn't be taking so much time off." He said.

"Okay, I can understand that, you love the job just as much as I do, I can tell that being out of the game hasn't been that fun. I was actually going to tell you to get back, but then they showed up, and a lot had gone down so I never had the chance. Besides, I'll be back soon enough and knock your ass off the top spot, enjoy it while it lasts."

"Wait, what do you mean you're going back to the Order? We're having a baby Sybil, you can't just leave." August said.

"Relax, I never said I was leaving now. Besides, this pregnancy has me so out of shape and lazy that I don't even think I have the same energy I had before I got pregnant. It'll take at least another six months for me to get my body and agility back. That should be enough time." He raised his eyebrow at her.
