“Did I ever tell thank you?”
I chuckle bitterly and nod.
“You’ve shown me how thankful you are that I’m carrying your babies. You know, no one in my life since my parents abandoned has shown me the kindness you have, Alpha Jacob,” I tell him. He squeezes my hand, surprised that I’ve brought up my family, it’s a topic I don’t touch because it hurts me to talk about.
“Tell me about your family,”
I smile as images of my once perfect and happy family come to my mind. We were once so happy until my father developed a gambling addiction. My father borrowed a lot of money from a loan shark mafia and he felt to pay it back.
“Things went downhill so fast from there, we were evicted from our family house and my parents deserted us,”
“Us? Who’s us?” He questions with a raised eyebrow.
“My brother Reece,”
“What? You have a brother?” He asks shocked.
“Yes, he’s in Sweden, boarding school,” I inform him. He opens his mouth to say something but closes it again.
“He’s fifteen and I worked three jobs to support him,” I inform him, and he seems surprised. He asks more about Reece and I tell him everything, how I was forced to send him away to keep him safe from the load sharks that wanted him as payment for my father’s debt.
“I used to visit him back then but now, it’s quite difficult,”
“Do you talk to him,”
“Yes, he’s thriving there honestly and I don’t want to bring him back,” I croak, on the verge of tears. Damn, fucking hormones.
“But you’re poor, how are you able to support him in an expensive boarding school,” He asks, baffled. Classic Jacob, see why I don’t want to name my child after him. I laugh and dig my claws into his skin.
“He’s on a scholarship. Reece runs track and he’s the best plus I have some savings,”
I inform him. He smiles and nods.
“Give me his school details,” He says, I narrow my gaze.
“Why?”
“I just want him to know that he can count on me too for support and always know that he has someone in his corner,” I was overwhelmed by his kindness and I didn’t want to burden him but indeed, my brother needs to know that he’s not alone in the world when I go to be with the moon goddess.
I do as he asks and transfers funds into his account which I’m grateful for, my phone rings and I smile to see it’s Reece, he wants to know about the money he received in his account.
“Hello,” I answer.
“Yo, sis, something crazy happened,” He says.
“I know. Remember how I told you that I’m having babies for this rich guy? ” I look at Jacob and he’s proud, nodding his head.
“He got your details,”
“Wow, I’ll use it wisely, please say thank you for me,”
“He’s hearing you as we speak,”
“You are welcome and we can’t wait to have you over,” Jacob hollers to my brother.
“Okay man,” However, Reece can’t come here because of the loan shark.
“Is that guy you were walking for at the club the loan shark?” He asks, his expression darkening. I slowly nod and he gets up.
“I’ll handle Muzo, he’s been wanting to get in my good graces lately for his business, don’t worry about anything. After today, no one will be on your back,”
“Thank you, Jacob,”
“You’re my family, you know that,” He says and I smile.
“You’re my family too,” With that, he leaves my bedroom and I sigh, feeling better I turn on the Tv to watch Netflix.
Alyssa’s POV
My belly is not a bump yet and it’s killing me, I want to have a baby bump soon. I complain about it with Leondre and he laughs at that.
“I’m serious baby, have you seen how Rosa’s belly is, it’s super cute!”
“But you’re only six weeks along, baby,” He comforts me. I’m laying on my back while he rubs my feet gently.
A thing about my pregnancy is that I’m horny all the time so my mate and I have sex like we are in heat.
He excuses himself to answer a call and I check my emails. The packs have been flourishing even the new ones are living at peace in the city.
“Are we going to the leadership seminar?” He asks with a frown. I sit up and frown, lately the Lycan king has been reluctant to attend events but it’s his job. The Alpha seminar is a big ceremony where Alphas and high-ranking members interact and talk about issues.
“We have to,” I giggle, he helps me up and takes me to our suite to rest.
The next morning, Arya and I are picking out an outfit for the seminar.
“How’s Rosa,” I question, she audibly sighs and flickers her eyes at me.
“She’s not doing too well but she’s trying to be,” She answers, Rosario’s pregnancy is a tough one, especially since she’s having twins. I pray to the goddess that she and the baby make it out alright
