Walking with the Vampire |COMPLETE|

39. Semi's secret.

Semi tried to remember if Osei emitted any vibes when he asked her to track Cayden. Was he secretly anxious even though his voice had sounded emotionless? 
Well Cayden was back with Nicholae and that meant so was Danielle.

Valentina jumped up glad to hear that Nicholae was back.
'How far away are they?'

'Not very far. I just sent Cayden the message,
he's on his way.' She tried to add some cheer into her voice, but her best wasn't good enough since her tummy kept tossing and clutching, she placed her hand on her belly to calm it down.

'You felt something?'
Yes she felt something and even her child could feel how unsettled she was and thus was becoming unsettled as well.

'I think he's switched positions.' She laughed caressing her stomach and trying to calm him.

'You know it's a boy? How?'

Semi smiled, 'I hope it's a boy that way he can take after his father. Osei wants a girl, he says he wants a miniature versions of me running around here.' She sobbed and laughed at the same time.
'I would have checked the gender but Osei doesn't want us going to a hospital here, he's afraid something bad could happen to us. And he doesn't want me using any magic on them either.'

'Papa!' Niko's excited cry stopped Semi's heart for a split second. She just said they were close but she still wasn't ready for their arrival.

'Nicholae is here.'
Valentina went to the window to double check and then turned tail down the stairs.

She slowly lifted herself up and made herself go down stairs, forcing one leg to move at a time, suddenly her body weighed a ton and didn't want to do what she knew she had to.

All the wolves present gathered around and made way for their Alpha who walked towards Cayden and hugged him. The wolves were equally excited about the return of their brother.

There were two other girls beside Fauna, one she didn't recognize at all, and Danielle.
She looked absolutely amazing unlike Semi who was now kind of fat.

'I came as soon as I heard.' Nicholae explained shaking hands with Seth.

'Come inside.'

'Osei.' Danielle's soft voice turned all heads in her direction.
He should walk away, Semi thought.
But even as she thought that, she questioned how he could when that was his first love and his first mate.
She stepped closer and reached for his face. He didn't attempt to evade her touch he just stood there rock solid.
'I'm sor...'
A menacing growl stopped everyone in their tracks.
Semi saw that it had come from Loki.
'She dares to touch him too. Oh the bitch is just asking for it.'
'Loki, No.' Malaki and Osei yelled simultaneously but the black wolf was already bounding for Danielle. His sister Liza wasn't too far behind who looked equally as feral in her intent to maul Danielle.

Without hesitation, without a second thought, Osei changed into wolf form and planted himself protectively before Danielle. Like he'd done when Baron, their old nemesis, had fired the fate dealing bullet at Danielle.
Osei had learned nothing.

Malaki tackled Loki and Lupé went after his sister.
'No Liza. Stop.'

'Liza stand down.' Osei roared, sending Liza in a mode of submission.
The she-wolf's eyes went wide with terror, her brother hadn't ever yelled at her like he did now.
'Nobody touches Danielle. Disobey my order and you'll be dealing with me. Understood.'
All the wolves lowered their head.
Loki shook off his brother and made his way towards Osei.

'Loki, I'm warning you.'

'I'm not stupid Osei. I'm not going to kill her, we need her to save you.'
Malaki stood beside his brother.
'He understands Osei, it was a brief moment of insanity.'
