Chapter 48

Kari pov

I can't believe Damien kicked me out there. Why would he do that he knows how much Aria means to me. We grew so close over the months here I think of her as family and her jerk face mates won't tell me anything. Storming into my room I know Zane is not fair behind me. I can feel his worry about my mood. Okay, so I have been a bit moody lately so I’m a girl and my best friend is fucking missing. Slamming the door behind me as I enter our room I didn’t notice how close Zane was to me. “fuck babe come on I didn’t do anything” Zane says rubbing his nose as he walks in “oh my goddess I’m so sorry I didn’t see you” I cry out at him rushing to him kissing his nose cheeks lips. “well if you slamming the door in my face gets me all these kisses I’m okay with it” he laughs out pulling me into him. As I snuggle into him I smell blood and my stomach starts to turn. I'm gonna be sick what no never mind I find nope that's a lie. I take off running to the bathroom just making it to the toilet. “fuck Kari are you okay. Are you sick “ Zane says as he comes to rub my back. Seeing blood on his shoes I get sick again I want to push him away and pull him close at the same time. What is wrong with me? Once my stomach starts to settle down I set back just to smell the blood again. Between reaching “please shower or something you smell like blood and it's making me sick” I tell him. He looks hurt but understating. Taking off his clothes he goes to drop them in the hamper “trash just throw them out” I tell him he looks confused but does as I ask. The whole while he's in the shower I start to feel better.
“Hey, babe how long have you not been feeling well?” Zane asks “what now your gonna make me think what kind of mate are you?” I grumble out sitting on the floor my back against the counter when he pops his head out “the sexy loving kind” he smirks at me. “stuff your Oreo's, mmm, Oreo's do you know if we have Oreo's downstairs.” I ask. “no clue but I think we should make a quick stop at the clinic just to get checked out.” he suggests I want to be mad at him but he's right I have been off lately. “fine fine hurry up I’m hungry.” I say “how?” he asks surprised that I would be hungry. Okay, something is wrong with me getting up I go to change and grab something for Zane to wear. Grabbing sweats and a tank for Zane knowing we are in for a long meeting comfort is what is needed. Leggings and one of Zane's hoodies for me. Walking back into the bathroom just ask Zane to step out of the shower. Lust is all I’m feeling licking my lips. His head snaps to me “we don’t have time love but damn you smell so fucking good” stalking to me kissing me hard. Pulling back he takes the clothes from me getting dressed. Pulling me to him “you look so hot in my clothes. Now come on let's get you checked out to eat then to the meeting.” nodding we head down to the clinic.

Kade pov

We are all eating and laughing it has been a good day. All of us are feeling better we will be getting aria and lady Olivia back soon. “Has anyone seen Kari and Zane? Kari's not one to miss a meal.” I ask everyone at the table we all look at each other shaking our heads. This is weird my sister loves food. I always joked that if he had to choose between me and food would win. I’m about to get up and go look for her when they enter the dining room looking like zombies. Jumping up rushing to her “Kar what's wrong?” I ask she just shakes her head. Looking back at everyone James looks just as worried as I feel but Damien and Brendon don’t look shocked or worried to see them like this. “someone starts talking now what's wrong with my sister?” “nothing is wrong with me K. I'm just a little…..you and you” she points to the alphas “you knew didn’t you? Is that why you kicked me out? How did you know?” shes firing questions off so fast. “did we know what?” Brendon asks all smug. If I didn’t respect him I would hit him right now. “what do they know?” I demand I’m starting to get angry. “oh sit your fluffy ass down and ill tell you. Sometimes I wonder if you’re a cat instead of a wolf sheesh.” Kari says as she sits down. Zane is hovering over her. He goes and makes her a plate and instead of her coffee he brings her tea and juice. What the actual hell is going on shes gonna kill him. When she just thanks him and starts sipping it I’m left dumbfounded. “okay so we all know I’ve been a bit touchy lately. Kade shut your mouth right now I don’t want to hear your shit.” she says glaring at me. Holding my hands up in surrender. “well Zane thought it would be a good idea to stop at the clinic just to get checked out. Turns out it's not just the stress of everything going on looks like ill be a mom soon” Kari says then takes a huge bite of her sandwich. “what? When? How? Wait no don’t tell me the how.” looking around then back at James “we are gonna be uncles. OH MY GODDESS WE ARE GONNA BE UNCLES.” jumping up I run over to Kari hugging her so tight “I'm so happy for you. How far along when will the bean be here?” I ask “about two weeks so due in six and a half months and you're not calling the future beta bean nope never do you hear me” she's calling at me pointing her finger at me. I look around the room and notice everyone is smiling “you know it's been a pretty horrible day, we needed this” I say everyone agrees.
