The new werewolf in town (Book 1 of the Werewolf Love series)

Chapter 15

Blayz' P.O.V.

I am so nervous right now. The drive to my old town is like six hours long and it's just me and Hayden in the car. Me and Hayden and an uncomfortable silence. I'm getting so nervous that my palms are sweating against the wheel since I am gripping it so tight. I think my hands are going numb. Every few seconds I could see Hayden looking over at me with regret-filled eyes. I also regret not telling him about my dream. I was an idiot for not telling him. By the third hour of driving, I was getting a headache, a really bad one, too. Don't you hate those headaches that, like, make your eyes hurt also? Well that's the kind of headache I have at the moment. I keep squinting my eyes to clear my head but it isn't working and my headache seems to be getting worse.

"Blayz, are you okay?" Hayden asked me.

"I'm fine, just a little headache," I told him, pushing his hand off my arm. He frowned at me, not believing me for a second. Ugh! I wish he would believe me but whatever.

"Pull over, I don't want to get in a wreck," he said and I immediately agreed because I just wanted to sleep for an hour at least. I drove off to the side of the road and we switched spots. After setting an alarm for two hours, we had three hours left, I fell asleep. I dreamt about a baby, our baby. He was gorgeous with Hayden's lovely hair and my eyes, the cutest baby you'd ever seen. All he did was smile and want to play. I wish that's what our real baby will be like. Hayden and I seemed so happy and we had my family and friends all around us. I was happy in my dream. I guess I had told Hayden about the baby and we were just happy about it. A loud sound woke me up then I realized it was the alarm on my phone.

"I'll drive the rest. We aren't staying at a hotel," I said to Hayden and he reluctantly pulled over to let me drive. The first ten minutes were filled with silence and my mate looking over at me every few seconds.

"So, you kept talking about a baby in your sleep," Hayden said and I froze a little. DId he notice that my smell is off? "Were you dreaming about a baby?" His voice was so soft that I knew he didn't know but knew he was thinking about having a baby of our own in the future.

"Um, yeah," I murmured.

"Why?"

"I-I don't know."

"Why are you nervous, Blayz?"

"I just really hate driving at night, okay?" I lied. I looked away because I feel so guilty but I just can't tell him right now. He might die if he knows because then he will be protecting us and I just can't deal with that. Maybe he won't, a voice in my head said. Ugh, stupid conscience. A hand on my arm pulled me from my little fight with my conscience.

"What aren't you telling me, Blayz?" I just looked away and focused on the road. "Babe, please tell me what's so bad that you can't tell me. What, did you cheat on me? What's so bad?"

"I just-right now isn't a good time to tell you," I whispered. I took a deep breath, feeling a little better that I at least told him something.

"No, just tell me."

"If I do, will you promise not to be overprotective of me?"

"Um, yeah." I looked at him, wishing he had said no. I mentally groaned but knew I had to tell him. So, the easiest way I could tell him was to take his hand and place it on my belly, looking at him. He frowned a little then looked from my stomach to my eyes then kept repeating it until he seemed to finally get what I was trying to tell him. His eyes got wider and wider by the second and a smile spread out on his face as he kept looking back and forth from my tummy and eyes.

"Oh my gosh! You're pregnant?! This is-this is great!" he said and kissed my cheek. I smiled a little but it went away at his next words. "Why are you fighting then?! Do you want to kill you and our baby? Please tell me you aren't fighting."

"Look, I am fight no matter what! I have a family to save and you won't stop me, Hayden! I already have a plan to keep our baby safe, okay? What, did you really think I was that stupid?"

"No, I just don't want you or the baby to die," he said and I realized we were in front of Rozelda's house. Time to get this show on the road. I grabbed my bags, with Hayden protesting to carry them for me, and headed to the door where Rosie was waiting. Instantly, she hugged me and whispered that everything was going to be okay. I just hope she's right. I can't lose this baby or my family.
