Chapter 38

Eddy worked overtime. A lot. Like, really a lot now.

Brett was only going out when strictly necessary - he promised Eddy that until they found the person who wanted to see him dead - and so Amalia and his chamber music colleagues were invited to practice in their home, not only at Amalia's anymore. He also had new cameras installed even though he thought he had everything covered, but Eddy suggested it and Brett obliged.

As far as Brett knew, there was no definite clue on who it was, but Eddy was very tight lipped about that anyway. He could only barely talk his mate out of the idea of having a security convoy every time he set a foot outside the house anyway.

It was dark outside and Brett waited for Eddy to show up for dinner. It was past 8pm and Brett felt a bit neglected. He knew Eddy was doing it for him, but also he had colleagues who were out for blood too. No one dared to make a move on one of the mates of the squadron. Especially not on the captain's 'wife'. Yeah, not only Lian called him that now, even the team under Eddy did.

Maybe because when he was brought in to give his statement, Eddy was seething with anger and oozing dominance all over the place and Brett just followed quite amusedly. Whenever Eddy would say that day, Brett grinned, grabbed his hand and followed. It was a sight to behold in Brett's eyes. Their roles were quickly reversed when they came home though.

Not that the team members knew that of course.

But now he was waiting again for his mate to show up for dinner. It was Thursday and Eddy promised to come home at least before 7pm. He'd wait until Eddy got home though before he scolded him. Maybe he had a clue or a hint? But until Eddy would drag his ass over to their house, he wouldn't know.

Eddy did have plans to come home earlier but instead he found his evening being spent in a doctor's office. Elaine and Israel had sent him there after catching him vomiting in the bathroom again while clenching his stomach because of some severe cramping. So there went his plans for coming home by seven. Elaine came with him to wait in the waiting room, which took about thirty minutes. Then he had to go see his original doctor and talk about the symptoms and get tested, that also took thirty minutes. So by the time he got the results it was already 8p.m. They weren't even good results, they were completely bogus!

"That's impossible," Eddy wouldn't put up with this bullshit. All his doctor did was roll her eyes, "Eddy dear, you took 7 pregnancy tests and they all showed up positive. That's not a fluke."

"But it should be impossible, I'm on birth control and my mate has an implant to kill his sperm. I can't be!"

"You're a bit over two months now, we should be able to hear the baby's heartbeat. So if you need more evidence than your 7 tests, let me offer you an ultrasound," Sometimes she wondered why this omega was so dense to these sorts of things.
