Chapter 63 (Beauty's Breath) (Beggar)
It's Friday morning, there is still no improvement from Harley or the guy Spade knocked out a few days
back. Hannah suggested we dose her with an antibiotic but Harlow thinks that is a terrible idea.
River informed us day before yesterday that the patch party was still happening regardless of
everything else we had going on.
Last night all the girls besides Jade and Whisp pitched in to get the new club ready for tonight.
We were done after eleven last night.
Zero took my body when I got back and the two of us enjoyed a hot bath with a snack he snatched
from the kitchen. When he offered me a beer I declined, and almost slipped up and told him. How I
remained quiet, I don’t know.
We haven't discussed his brother either. Not for his lack of trying, it was just me. The pregnancy has
been on my mind since last night. If I confess then it makes it all real. I don’t want to do that but I know
that I am on borrowed time. Zero isn’t stupid.
After knows I’m pregnant, apparently, she knew it before I even left Kanla to hunt down Lucca. She
gave me ‘till morning to tell Zero and now was morning.
I don't have an option, and she’s right, I am starting to show.
“We need to talk,” I tell Zero as he walks out of the bathroom.
“So talk.” He drops his towel showing me his tight butt as he opens a drawer and pulls out his black
trousers.
“I'm pregnant.”
I watch his back straighten and his muscles tense.
Minutes pass by that feels like hours. He turns to me. His face gives nothing away so I am not sure
what do I do now.
“How far along,” He asks me in a quiet voice. The last time he spoke to me like this was the day in the
barn when he was Quinns.
“I’m not sure, close to three months maybe. I haven't been to the doctor. Kylie bought this test. It tells
you how many weeks you are in your pregnancy. Mine said 12 weeks.”
I jump off the bed and grab my clothes from the floor. My mind is blank so I don't sense Zero behind
me. His hands wrap around my stomach.
I close my eyes as I straighten my back and lay my head against his naked flesh.
“So I am going to be a dad, hah.” He kisses the top of my head after he says that.
“Yes, guess you are.”
“Maybe that ass might be getting fat after all.”
I pull myself away from him and slap his chest.
“The only thing getting fat is going to be your mouth when I put my fist in it.”
“Don't know Beauty, I didn't want to hurt your feelings but your ass might be getting a bit heavy.”
My mouth drops open and I glare at him as I bend down to pick up my boot. I swing around and throw it
close to his head as he barely misses. He grabs his t-shirt from the dresser and runs out of the room.
“Coward,” I click my tongue and slip on the jeans I wore last night before I leave the rest of the clothes
in the hamper.
Once the bed is made and room is tidy I head downstairs to the dining room where everybody is
seated.
I check the food. There is scramble eggs, boiled eggs, sausages, bacon, avocado, beans, mushrooms,
pancakes and fresh rolls.
My eyes lift slightly. I spot the guy sitting directly opposite to where I am standing.
At first I think I am seeing things.
Brown and blonde hair, very square jaw, full lips. My eyes narrow as he remains unaware of my
presence because he is too busy stuffing his face.
He finally looks up. A frown creases and that is when I show him my thumb. He does the same and his
eyes widen as he chews his food fast and gets up rushing around the table ignoring everyone else. He
comes to me and engulfs me in a bear hug.
Which is freaking awkward.
“Riya, holy fuck chick, the last time I saw you, you were like this height. Didn't ever think I’d see you
again, especially here.” His light blue eyes are so intense, just like how I remember.
“What's up Lukey nukey.” I wink at him as big hands wrap around my waist.
“You two know each other?” Zero asks as he makes a show by putting his head on my shoulder.
“Yeah, she was one of the foster kids I crossed paths with. We lived together for a while. A year before
I joined the army. Ally, the girl that went missing. She was adopted by a rich family after the social
worker picked us up from the house. She just got accepted into NYU, called me up to tell me the good
news and bam, next thing she is gone. Haven't seen her in four years.”
“You talking about the same Ally we hunted down a few years back?” Zero queries.
“Yeah man, that girl was a fucking angel compared to Riya and I.”
“I go by the name of Beggar now,” I tell Luke, who frowns at me. He must have heard something about Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
me. He says nothing. Instead, he nods his head.
“I'm Radar now.” He winks and I shake my head, still the same Luke I remember when we were living
in the foster house together.
“Come let's get some food in you before my baby starves,” Zero whispers in my ear when Radar goes
back to his chair.
“You just told me my ass is fat,” I snap at him and pinch his chin.
“I meant p h a t, not f a t, meaning pretty hot and tempting,” Zero says from behind me.
“And that is supposed to make her feel better?” After walks past Zero and smacks him on the head.
“You and Killer need to stop doing that shit.” Zero says as he rubs the sore spot.
“What shit?” Killer says as he smacks Zero's head too.
A sweet laugh comes from the back, it is small and soft.
I turn my head and see the short woman sitting on the right two places down from Radar. I give her a
chin lift when she looks at me and smiles. Her eyes are hard, which means she has seen shit and that
smile is fake. I hate fake people.
The table fills up as all the others gather and get into their places. I take the seat next to Zero and wait
for him to bring my breakfast to me.
“We're heading out in a few. Mercy and you will go in the cage, we need to get the place sorted before
three, then we still have to get back here and get the rest of the things.”
“Okay, is there a dress code for tonight?” I ask as Zero places a mountain of food in front of me.
His eye with the scar goes small as he stares at me, “That is something you need to talk to the women
about."
