A few weeks later…Miranda stood in the kitchen cutting up homemade berry marshmallows, then placed them on a plate as a pyramid, then covered it with a glass dome cover and placed it on the counter.She moved on to cutting up rice puffed rice treats and did the same to them and placed them on the counter. Moving on to the brownies, she did the same and as she was covering them with the glass dome. Then she heard a grunt.Shaking her head with a slight smile on her face, she walked out of the kitchen, down the hall, and stopped at a door. Looking in, she saw Kaeden standing in front of a mirror, looking at his stomach and rubbing it.Kaeden had on gym tights and a sports bra, while barely standing up straight. “What happened now?”Turning his head to look at her, he complained, “Ma~ just look at my stretch marks. Why is my stomach so big? I haven’t been standing for long, but my legs already want to give in.”Miranda chuckled. Shaking her head, she walked into the room and grabbed the
Chris drove his BMW up to the packhouse and smiled when he saw Rayland was already waiting for him—it was a little troublesome since he had to lie to Samantha about where he was going. Chris didn’t get out to greet him because he didn’t want to make it obvious to the others who were around. Rayland was with Valentino, who waved crazily at Chris, who just honked his horn in greeting. Reaching over the seats, he opened the door and smiled. Rayland sat down and closed the door and almost jumped out of his seat when Chris reached over and tugged the seat belt in place, then clipped it in. He placed it over Rayland’s chest so that it wouldn’t touch his stomach; he looked at Rayland and asked, “Are you comfortable?” Rayland didn’t answer him and only stared. That’s when Chris realized how close they were. He stared into Rayland’s eyes and heard Crypt say, >I can hear Parisa’s heartbeat from here.< He cle
Rayland was so full of shit the following weekend he didn’t even bother to get up but he informed Chris that he didn’t have to pick him up, Chris was bummed out about being dropped on their date but it didn’t stop him from going shopping. Kaeden sent out three invitations, one for Parisa’s baby shower that only the pack members received, the second for Cael’s baby shower that other packs also received and lastly for Kaeden’s baby shower that was specific asking that if they wanted to bring gifts, diapers for newborn babies to two years would be great. Everyone was confused but the fine print said, “We do not know the genders, so we’ll figure that out in the future and to make up for the lack of gifts, you can make it up on their first birthday.” Chris walked around inside the baby supply store with a checklist in his hands. He was going over things to buy, from a car seat, to a stroller, a diaper bag and a changing table. From over the years, h
Chris folded his arms. >The only reason I was touching him was because his daughter was kicking. Why wouldn’t I want to know how that feels?< >Chris, Samantha is pregnant as well at home. Why can’t you wait for your son to grow, then you can feel him kick? Why are you touching a pregnant, mated wolf who was abandoned? Are you feeling sorry for him?< Miranda scolded. Chris stepped back and looked at his mother in disbelief, >Mom, Rayland wasn’t abandoned, it wasn’t safe for him to be with his mate and that is why he is alone, wait, Rayland isn’t even alone, he has the whole pack here with him!< Miranda smacked Chris across the face and said, pointing at his nose, >And how the hell do you know that? Don’t think I don’t know what’s going on, the entire pack is talking about it, you’re lucky it hasn’t gotten to Samantha yet since she doesn’t visit the pack house
Chris sighed and sat back. “Not good, but they are both healthy.” Kaeden hummed, he had a question on his mind that he didn’t want to ask but felt that he needed to, “Chris, I don’t want to be the one to tell you this since you will most likely not believe me but, while you’ve been out doing whatever, your mate has been sending texts out and been transferring money to an account from your pack account to one registered under her name that isn’t linked to the packs main account.” Chris raised a brow, baffled. “What do you mean? Who has she been texting?” Kaeden shook his head. “We only know the number, but I asked Grayson to do more digging on where she was transferring the money to, and he found an offshore account.” Chris narrowed his eyes at Kaeden. Kaeden didn’t have to tell him anything, but here he was, another thing was that he never used the pack’s money and mentioned to Samantha that he was going to use that money and ha
It was finally the day of Rayland’s baby shower, but he was being unreasonable. Kaeden was glaring at him and said, “Enough with your nonsense. You look fine.” Rayland groaned, looking at himself in the mirror. He asked, “Why am I wearing a dress, can’t I wear the tank top?” Kaeden rubbed his forehead, annoyed. “Sure whatever,” he said and threw the pink tank top at Rayland, who smiled happily. Pulling the dress off, he put on the tank top and pulled on black leggings. Waylon walked into the room and handed a pink skirt to the glaring Rayland, “You no want wear dress, you wear tutu.” Dante scoffed as he walked into the room. Staring at Rayland, he said, “You’re never going to win, hurry and get dressed. I want to drink.” Waylon punched Dante in the stomach, glaring at him. He warned, “You no drink. Last time Corbin carry you home and embarrass me.” Dante looked down at his little mate, sighing he said, “O
“So I have to fucking hear by the pack members that you are fucking cheating on me, Chris what the fuck?!” Samantha said as she slammed her hand down on the dining table where Chris was busy on his laptop with the company work when she came home and started yelling. He stopped working and saved the graphs he was drawing up and looked at his mate, sighing he said, “Okay, you now have my full attention. What’s gotten you so worked up?” Samantha glared at him. “Don’t act like you didn’t hear me.” Chris shook his head. “Honestly, I didn’t. Can’t you see I am working? Never mind, start from the beginning.” Samantha huffed, “Chris, I went to see Kaeden because he called. After my meeting with him, I heard from everyone that you go to the pack house every day to go see that outsider. Is it true?” Chris raised a brow. “Who are you talking about?” Samantha’s glare hardened. She couldn’t believe that Chris was playing dumb. “That
When Samantha heard that her ‘so called mate’ was in hospital with Rayland, she felt so much hatred and self-pity.Chris was supposed to be her husband, but look what was happening.The thing she thought she could get away with was exposed to her mate through that fucking cunt who took her place beside Corbin, and now Chris was leaving her.Looking down at her stomach, she frowned. ‘If only I wasn’t carrying his child!’‘I’m four months away. Can’t this hurry so I can leave?’ She asked herself frustratedly.*A few weeks passed, and Chris was constantly seen with Rayland.The pack members were gossiping behind their backs saying that Chris was horrible for doing this to his mate and did he not have any shame?Not to mention the Alpha and Luna who let them do what they wanted?But it had nothing to do with them.*Everyone was getting ready for Kaeden’s baby shower; the pack members were so busy because now not only was it the baby shower but the humans were moving in and they were goin
