Decebel's POV
The air in Kiara's bedroom felt crisp. Cold. Lonely. I could smell the scent of her hair faintly on the pillow she used to sleep with every night before leaving for Alaska. I didn't sleep well last night. I cant stop thinking about how I can be laying here, comfortable, free to do whatever when Kiara and Morgan could be tied up somewhere. I have no idea if Kiara is being fed enough to keep the pregnancy healthy. Something else that is weighing on my mind heavy; it's the fact that I know that we're having a son. I don't deserve to know before she does.
SMASH.
I jumped right out of bed when the sound rang through my ears.
"What was that?" I flung open the door and the sound in the hallways were silent.
I took off towards where I thought the sound came from and that's when I heard some baby coo's and some giggling coming from down the stairs.
"You three think you're so funny, huh?" I heard Mia's voice calmly say.
I walked down the stairs, keeping my eyes scanning the rooms to make sure there isn't any threats.
"Decebel, honey? Is everything okay?" Before I even knew it, I walked into the kitchen.
Neveah was on the counter giggling and the other two were on the floor crawling around.
"Yeah, I heard a loud bang so I was coming to see if everything was alright." I looked around the room.
"That's sweet of you, Decebel. Neveah got onto the counter somehow and knocked over my mothers vase. Which all three of them find SOOOOO FUNNY." Mia giggled as she scooped Neveah off of the counter.
I just shoved my hands in my jogger pockets, I couldn't help but feel uneasy.
"You know, if you're wondering where Blake is he's out of town for a few days on Alpha business." She started placing the girls in their high chairs.
"I'm not scared of him." I said under my breath.
Mia giggled.
"I never said you were, but I know the amount of trauma he put you through. It's okay to be worried about it. It's still fresh." She looked at me with a sincere look on her face.
I just fake smiled as I sat down at the table next to the girls.
"Here, have some breakfast. You're going to have a rough training this morning if you don't eat." Mia placed down some eggs, toast, and bacon in front of me.
"I shoul-" I started to say before I got cut off.
"Kiara would want you to be taking care of yourself." Bella's voice echoed through the hallway before she entered the room.
"Good morning, mother." Mia smiled.
I just looked into her eyes and then down to the plate of food.
"Listen, Mia. I need to apologize to you." I sighed.
"What about, honey?" Mia sat across from me.
"I'm sorry for the hurt that my family has caused you throughout all of your life. I'm sorry for the trust I have broke, and the thing I'm most sorry for is I couldn't keep Kiara safe." My voice cracked.
"Decebel, none of that was your fault. You're more than what your parents are. You cant blame yourself for what you were born into." Mia reached across and placed her hand on mine. I could smell Bella's scent as she sat next to me.
"I know that it's not my fault who I am related to. This could have all been prevented if I would have just told any of you that Jackson is my father. Or even that Marianna had a plan to go after the pack in the first place." I trailed off.
