Chapter Sixteen - Gone

Hey guys. How has your week been? Mine wasn't too good, but that's life, right? Anyway, here is your next chapter. You guys are probably gonna hate me for this one, but it had to be done. Enjoy xxx.

Evan"s POV

Something bad is going to happen! I can just feel it. I've been having this sickening feeling in my stomach for the past two days, and let me tell you, it is NOT morning sickness. I keep getting this feeling of absolute dread, no matter what I'm busy with at the time and I don't know how to ease it. I don't even know if I'm maybe just being a bit paranoid due to finding out that I am pregnant or if it's just because Mason is still on the loose. All I know is that something is going to go wrong badly. Jaxon has been trying to get me to relax a bit and reassure me that everything is fine, but I know it isn't. I also don't want him to stress too much, so this morning I told him that I was feeling fine and that the feeling is gone. I know I shouldn't lie to him, but I hate seeing him look so helpless when he doesn't know how to help me or how to soothe my fears. 

So right now, I am on my way to the mall with Nathan. We haven't had any time to spend together like we used to and he just found out the day before that he was also pregnant. I mean, I didn't even know that normal male werewolves could fall pregnant as well, but it turns out that if you are mated to someone of rank, like he is with Carter, then your body goes through some changes so that you can produce an heir to take the ranked position once they are of age. So now we are headed to the mall, armed with credit cards, and we are going shopping for clothing that can actually fit us and of course, baby shopping.

We get to the mall and decide we going to eat something first. "Where do you think we should go eat, coz I'm starving" Nathan tells me with a cheeky grin. This boy is seriously always starving. I have never met a person that can consume the amount of food he can. I mean seriously, Jax and Carter are both much bigger than him, and you would expect them to eat the larger quantities, but nope, that is all Nathan. "You know you should thank your lucky stars we are wolves, or you would be one porky bastard with the amount you eat" I tell him, laughing my ass off at the mock offended look on his face. As much as I loved Jax and loved spending time with him, I have missed my time with Nathan. He has literally seen me at my worst and has always been there for me when I needed him. Anyway, enough with the depressing thoughts. Now it was time to relax and have a bit of fun.

We ate and then went to the closest Men's clothing store. We ended up buying so much clothing that we had to make a few trips back to the car and then we went to the baby store. There we ordered all the big furniture we would need for the nurseries and we bought some gender-neutral clothing as we didn't know the sex of our babies just yet. All the time that we were doing that, I felt like we were being watched. I kept looking around to see if I could catch anyone but whoever it was remained elusive. Sometimes I thought I saw someone moving in the periphery of my vision, but as soon as I turned to see who or what it was, it was gone. 

We had been gone for about four hours when Nathan and I decided to head back home. I'm pretty sure the guards Jaxon had sent to follow us discreetly were beyond exhausted by now and my feet and back were killing me. I knew the guards were there from the minute we stepped foot in the mall and I knew why Jax had done it, so I wasn't upset about it. He was just taking care of me and our babies. "O my soul, I'm so tired. Who knew shopping could be so exhausting". Nathan groaned when we got to the car. He stopped next to his door and stretched his arms out above his head a bit, before getting inside. "I know what you mean. I don't think I have ever been so tired in my life. But thanks for today Nathan. I really had a lot of fun and we really should try to do this more often." I told Nathan. He hummed in agreement and we set off back to the Pack House.

As we got closer to the house,, my feelings of dread increased and I shifted in my seat, trying to feel more at ease but it wasn't working. "What's up Evan? you have been looking around us all day and you seem really uncomfortable about something." Nathan asked me in a worried tone. I glanced at him and decided to tell him the truth. " I don't know what's going on Nate, but for the past two days I have had this really bad feeling in my gut. Like something really bad is going to happen, but I have no damn idea what. And now it's steadily getting worse as we get closer to the Pack House. It's starting to frustrate me." I huffed out the last bit as I was really starting to feel irritated. I hated feeling helpless and not knowing what's going to happen. "Maybe you are just feeling like that, because you just found out you are pregnant and you are feeling a bit paranoid and protective". Nathan suggested. "Yeah, maybe." I sighed, not knowing what else to say. For all I know, he could be right.
