Chapter Twenty Nine
Reese walked into mom’s bedroom, with worries eyes. As he looked at me, calmness washed over him, but his eyes still held worry.
“what’s the matter?” I questioned.
“nothing, it’s just I thought I felt something wrong with the pregnancy. I don’t know what it is, but it doesn’t want to go away.” he said making me freeze.
“y-Youre probably imaging things. Nothing happened, as you can see I’m alive and well.” I said. He couldn’t possibly know, right?
“yeah, you’re probably right. Hey, do you wanna move to my house?” he questioned. My eyes widened at his suggestion.
“As in, Me and you, alone in our own home?” I questioned as he nodded. I looked towards mom who gave a slight nod. “I guess, yeah.” I said with a small smile.
“Okay then.” a wide grind took over his face. “We’ll move today.” he said as I nodded. He walked out leaning mom and I.
“What happened that you haven’t told Reese?” she questioned. I let my eyes fall in guilt.
“I may or may not have fell from a bar stool while trying to reach for chocolate.” I said. Mom gasped and looked at me in shock.
“Colleen, you need to tell him, what If something happened to the baby? What if you made your pregnancy more riskier?” she interrogated.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
“Mom I’m fine the baby is moving fine, I can feel it. I know I’m fine and
Reese doesn’t have to know, it would crush him to know I fell, so please mom, don’t tell him.” I pleaded.
“Colleen this is going to be your downfall, if soon something comes up and the doctor notices something wrong, he is going to find out, do tell him. The base of a relationship is trust, if you base it on dishonesty and deception you will break anything and everything you guys have.” she said. I nodded.
“I Will tell him but not now.” I promised. I will, it’s just a matter of time.
“Very well then, go pack you’re leaving soon.”mom said as she shooed Mr out of her room, a small chuckle left my lips as I walked out. I walked into my bedroom, packing bag after bag, shoe after shoe.
Soon I was done and Reese had knocked on the door to see if I was ready. I nodded as he grabbed my bags. I bid farewell to mum one more time and Daniel was nowhere in sight so I could say bye.
Reese’s car was parked outside the door. He put my bags into the back and he helped me enter he car, soon we were driving down the tarred road. The car was silent as we sat not uttering a word.
We neared the gigantic house I once cleaned, as Reese parked the car in the driveway. I hopped out as 2 people came to collect the bags. “make sure to put them in my room.” he ordered. They nodded and off they went. Opening the door, Reese walked in with me falling close behind him. It’s been some time since I had come to this house. I seriously missed it.
Reese grabbed my hand and pulled me towards him, a small smile tugging his lips. “Why are you smiling?” I questioned him in wonder.
“Nothing, it just feels good to have my mate in my house.” he said, soon coming down the stairs was Helen with Lillian by her side. I rolled my eyes at the soon to be drama to come. Ugh.
“Reese, you’re back?” Helen questioned. He nodded and kept a stoic face. “Why is she here? Did she do something?!” she asked in disbelief as hate slurred with her words.
“No, I’ve simply brought my mate home with me, and I don’t know why Lillian is still here?” He questioned in frustration.
“Lillian Is here because she is my loyal friend, she is a very good person, but this commoner, low life is not someone you welcome into your house. Mate? Reese are you serious? Is that supposed to be some kind of joke?” she questioned.
“You see Helen, I told you she’d brainwash your brother now he doesn’t even know who his mate is.” she said. Oh how I wanted to slap the male up on her face.
“Why would you say that? What have I done for you to become this… Bitch? What? Did I do something tell me Lillian, or are you jealous your mate isn’t someone with a high ranking?” I questioned. Lillian soon burst into a stream of tears. Seriously? I haven’t even said what was in my mind yet?
Helen gasped at her ‘friends’ tears and looked at me with hatred. “how dare you make her cry.!” she said as she raised her hand to slap me, soon Reese’s hand shot out and held it, his eyes turning dark and soon golden as he let out a Growl.
“Touch my mate and I will kill you, sister or not.” he furrowed loudly making even me flinch. Tears brimmed her eyes as she watched her big brother carefully. “You.” he pointed at Lillian “Leave immediately now!” he said as she walked out with pain. “and you” he sneered at his sister. “You will apologize to your Luna and my mate right this instant, I’m so disappointed in you, I never thought my sister could do such a thing.” he said as he let her hand go and walked away full on rage.
His words seemed to take a toll on her as her eyes filled with tears. She looked almost upset. Did she love Reese so much that even his words affected her? I turned to her as she looked at me in anger.
“See! Because of you my brother is now angry at me. I hate you so much! Lillian was right, your kind of people are the worst, you use people’s money and power and then you leave them and I will hate you forever. And let me take an oath now, if you even dare to hurt my big brother, I will personally kill you. Without a doubt.” she said as tears rolled out if her eyes. She looked at me once more before walking away.
Reese came back in and looked at me with sorry Hidden in them. “Did she apologize? If she said something tell me now. I don’t know what has gotten into her.” he said.
“It’s okay Reese, she apologized, but she is really overprotective of you so don’t get mad at her.” I reasoned. He nodded as a wife grin overcame his face.
“Let’s go up to our room, yeah?” he asked a smile took over my face.
“Sure.”
