A Revelation Or Two ALEJANDRO Her heart thudded as she fought back her tears at my refusal . I knew she wanted to run from me but I refused to let her go . I sat up and looked down at her . Although she was in my lap , she was still so much smaller than me . She bit her lip , looking away .
I placed a kiss on her forehead , inhaling her tempting scent . She was my fucking home , the place I wanted to be … but I needed to tell her this now . ” I don’t know if there’s … ” I trailed off . Fuck . How do I tell her that she’s pregnant … ? Since I woke up , I knew I had to fucking tell her , but how ?
” Alejandro … What is it ? ” She asked softly . ” What do you think of pups ? ” I asked bluntly . She blinked , looking confused . ” Pups ? They’re cute … ” Want to be a mama ? ”
Ok , fuck , that sounded stupid . It seemed Kiara thought so too when she blushed and let out an awkward laugh . ” 1 ” Umm yeah … Let’s not jump the gun … ” She said . I didn’t miss her gaze dipping to my dick . ” Not the best chat up line …
” ” Yeah , I was making a fucking fool out of myself . How the fuck do I tell her … ? I didn’t even know how to be fucking nice . Maybe I should just do this how I usually would … I gave her a mocking smirk .
” I don’t need to have chat up lines ready when we both know I get you turned on without even having to fucking try . ” I said arrogantly . She gave me a scornful gaze . ” Yeah , I can see what kind of affect I’m having on you too . ” She retorted . Ok , now we were going off fucking topic …
I placed my hand on her thigh , stroking it to calm her spiking temper . ” So … about pups … Not sure if you know or not , I’m not a werewolf , I’m a fucking Lycan . The rules of needing to mark someone to get them knocked up don’t seem to apply to me ….. ” I said .
She raised an eyebrow and I took a breath . Here goes fucking nothing … ” You’re already pregnant , sweetheart ” Yeah , being me was so fucking easy . Her face drained of colour as she clamped her hand over her mouth , her heart racing . Ok , now what the fuck do I do ? Shit , she’s going to freak the fuck out … Stop thinking with your fucking head Al … Just do what feels right .
I let go of her waist and she tried to clamber off my lap , but I gripped her wrist , pulling her back so this time I was carrying her sideways as I wrapped my arms around her firmly . I was trying not t o focus on her boobs .
She sure was fine . ” Look … If you don’t want it , we can … get rid of it . ” It actually fucking hurt saying those words . How the fuck could it hurt when I didn’t even know of its existence until last night ? I could hear her racing heart and I really wished I knew what the fuck was going through her mind . ” Do you want me to get rid of it ?
” She asked quietly , placing her hand on her stomach . Well , I sure as fuck wasn’t expecting that question . ” It’s your body … your choice . What I want doesn’t fucking matter . ” I said without even having to think .
Yeah , I’d love to say keep it , but I had to remember she was only eighteen . Although it was common for our kind to have kids early , I still wanted her to be ready for it . We were already going through hell , and now we were adding a fucking pup to the mix , just to make matters worse …
” I don’t think I’ve earned that yet .
” He said quietly . ” I hurt you too … Al , please- ” He cut me off , his thumb rubbing against my lip . ” You should think over this decision too … A pup can be fucking hard . I know you want to keep it , but don’t rush your decision .
” He said , his gaze was fixed on my lips . My heart was pounding . ” I know , but I’m sure you know by now that I make decisions very fast , and once I do , I don’t back off .
” I said , now resting my head on his shoulder . Life was so full of surprises and one thing was clear , everyone’s story was different . I just hoped I would get my happy ending too . ” I know … But I think we’ve both made enough rash decisions to learn to actually sit back and just think first for once . Can’t believe I’m saying this fucking shit .
” He said making me smile . ” Oh yeah ? When did the mighty Lycan king get so wise ? ” I teased , looking up at him . ” When he fucking fell in love so fucking hard that all he sees is his nympho queen.” He said quietly, his eyes now meeting mine.
