Chapter 84
“No way man, you’ve got to tell her. She deserves to know everything”, Killian said.
After the mysterious man left, Brian had driven straight to the club. He needed to talk to someone about this and the only people he could trust where his friends.
“Where’s Jack?”, Brian asked.
“Behind the building. He went there for a smoke”, Killian said.
“Alright. Listen man, there’s something else”, Brian said.
“What’s up? What’s the problem?”, Killian said.
From the look on his friends face, he knew that something else was going on. He had never seen Brian looked so distressed and confused all at a time.
“It’s Jack’s sister”, Brian said.
“Wait! Don’t tell me she’s dead”, Killian said.
“She is. I got a letters from Wilfred today”, Brian sighed.
He fished inside his pocket for the letter, handing it over to Killian who read through with a horrified look on his face.
“Oh my gosh! Jack is going to be crushed”, Killian said.
“That’s why we must keep this a secret at least until the battle with Wilfred is over”, Brian said.
“No man!. This is too big of a secret to keep away from him, I suggest we tell him so he’ll know about it”, Killian said.
“We’ll tell him after the battle. We know how he is, he’ll react so badly this city wouldn’t contain his anger”, Brian said.
“This is so bad. Why on Earth is this happening to us now?”, Killian croaked.
“This was part of the challenges the moon goddess warned us about. Killian we have to be strong, that’s the only thing we can do”, Brian said.
They remained silent as each sat there with their own thoughts. Brian was crushed about the news of Serah’s parent’s death and be was devastated about Jack’s sisters death. Now, he knew beyond all reason that he had to destroy Wilfred and his entire pack if they were to survive another day in this city.
It was the only thing they could do to end this madness Wilfred and his pack had caused. Right now, Brian’s next mission was to inform Serah about what had happened and he could only hope she took it boldly lest his world was about to become a whirlwind of sadness.
“I have to go now, I need to tell Serah what has happened”, Brian said.
Killian nodded, wishing him all the luck he needed. Brian smiled, heading out of the private club. He desperately wished Serah took the news well and hoped that she wasn’t angry with him for keeping it away from her.
Brian pulled into his driveway, putting the car to a stop. He got out as he made her a way towards the mansion. There was so much he was thankful for, right from his mate to his business and even down to the protection he got from the moon goddess, indeed there was so much to be thankful for.
“Honey, I’m home”, Brian called.
He placed his car keys on a nearby table, shrugging off his jacket that seemed to become so hot as soon as he stepped into the house.
“Hey darling, welcome back”, Serah said.
She walked towards him dressed in a simple gown over a flat plaide slippers that wrapped around her feet. Brian once again couldn’t believe how lucky he was to call her his mate.
“How have you been?”, Brian asked.
He gripped her by the waist, planting a light kiss on her lips as he led her towards the double couch that sat at a corner of the room. He wanted to take this further but they needed to talk and clear all their secrets, that was the only way they could move forward.
“Serah, we need to talk”, Brian said, quietly
Already, he could feel something unsettling within him that didn’t quite sit well with him. He knew the battle with Wilfred was imminent and any moment from now, the city would be thrown into chaos.
“I need to talk to you about something too but you go first”, Serah smiled.
“No darling, you can go ahead. Ladies first”, Brian chuckled.
“I’m pregnant”, Serah said
For several minutes, Brian remained quiet as he thought about what she had just said. The full implication of that meant that he would soon become a father and he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry for joy.
“You’re… Pregnant”, Brian stuttered.
He couldn’t believe it was true. All his life especially since he was young, he had always wanted to be a father and now his dreams were coming to reality.
“Yes, I’m pregnant Brian”, Serah giggled.
Brian swept her off her feet, giving her a slow kiss as he poured all his love and attention into that kiss. He couldn’t explain how greatful he was for this priceless gift and he simply settled for that kiss.
“Thank you Serah, you really don’t know how much this means to me”, Brian said.
“Thank you too, for making me a mother. It’s all I could ever ask for”, she smiled.
“We’ll celebrate properly later but I have to tell you what’s goin on”, Brian said.
There was a look of fear and confusion in her eyes and Brian hated to think that he had indirectly set it there.
“It’s about your parents. They’re in the city”, Brian said.
“What the hell are they doing here”, Serah thundered.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
Brian could see the fear on her face which was very visible and he was somewhat glad about it because it was much better than the withdrawal he was expecting.
“As of now, all we know is that they are planning a massive attack on the city and right now Killian and Jack are evacuating the people to a safe place”, Brian said.
“Oh my gosh! Does this have to do with Wilfred too?”, Serah asked.
“Yes, Wilfred and his entire pack are working hand in hand with them and also Antonio whom we thought was dead but is very much alive”, Brian said.
“This is terrible. Darling, we have to get out as fast as possible”, Serah said.
“You’ll be going on to safety soon. I just wanted to give you this news before you go”, Brian sighed.
“Me? What about you?”, Serah said.
“No, I’m not going anywhere. I’ll stay here and fight, it’s my duty as the Alpha”.
“Then I’m staying with you as the Luna”, Serah huffed.
“No, you can’t. You’re pregnant and the safety of our child is all that matters. I don’t know what I’ll do if something ever happens to you and our unborn child”, Brian said.
Serah sighed, wringing her hands together and Brian knew she had finally agreed to go.
