Chapter 133
To say that I slept like a super cute baby would be an understatement. I have been on bed rest for the past two days and let's just say I was over it now. I was ready to join the real world now. I haven't seen much of Alexander or even my friends except for Amara who made it her job to shove lots of food inside my mouth.
I was guessing Alex was busy with some pack business. After my long shower I decided to put on a long blue dress with long sleeves. It was warmer and I felt like being a bit free today. Pants were getting a bit itchy for me, they were actually kind of irritating me for the past few days so I decided to try something new. It was probably this pregnancy that was making me feel weird.
I opened the door as I got ready to leave the room only to find two guards staring back at me as if they were waiting for this moment. "what is going on here?" I asked them nervously although I knew clearly what was going on. Their King instructed them not to let me out of his room.
"we were instructed to guard you and escort you anywhere you feel like going" one of them said with a smile "my name is Rick and I'm the kings warrior," he added in a friendly tone. I liked Rick he seemed gentle and I needed gentle right now in my life considering the amount of hostility I was getting.
"and I am Mark I am also one of the kings warriors" Mark introduced himself as well. Mark had Grey eyes and black hair, his skin was a bit tan while Rick had blue eyes and ginger brown hair. Rick had pale skin and a lot of freckles dotting his face. One thing they had in common was their height, they were both very tall.
"thank you Mark, thank you Rick this means a lot to me" I said with a huge smile. I needed the protection not only for myself but for my unborn child as well.
"where are you heading?" Rick asked
"to see my friends," I answered as I walked and they followed
Nobody said a word after that. It wasn't awkward or anything because they were just doing their job and I had a lot to think about so my mind was pretty occupied.
I reached the room my friends were usually in although apparently they were moved, since they were staying longer. I was glad they were each given a room, it gave them more privacy. The twins were also moved, we agreed that school would be the best for them. It was like a boarding school were all the human kids stayed. It was protected and Alexander assured me that it was the safest place for them right now.
I entered the room, Amara and Marcia were talking about something that seemed very serious. The expressions on their faces definitely said it. I raised an eyebrow at them and they both stopped talking when they noticed me walking towards them. The guards stayed at the door and I didn't even have to beg them to stay they totally understood that I needed space with my friends.
"well hi guys, why do you two look so I don't know... weird?" I asked them with a frown "and where are the others"
"Persius and Hakim are training or whatever. How are you feeling Lu?" Marcia asked
To be honest "I am feeling great, amazing actually but I'm a little still skeptical about being here. I mean I thought I would be safe but apparently I am not safe anywhere." I told them
It's funny how dangerous my life was becoming each and every day. There was always something new and terrible going on in my life. I was starting to believe I was born cursed to be honest.
Amara shook her head. "listen Lu please don't think like that. You cannot afford to lose hope right now because we all need each other to stay strong if we are ever going to survive in this hell hole.Just keep pushing okay?"
She was right, I smiled at her and nodded my head. She was right especially now that I was carrying another life inside of me, I had to stay strong for the both of us. I felt so guilty that I was keeping this from them. It wasn't fair to them at all but I didn't know how they would take it.
I didn't need my own friends begging me to get rid of it or something. Worse what if they turned on me, I mean I know that they wouldn't but there is a high chance that they wouldn't accept my child and I didn't need that right now. I had a lot to think about, soon I would figure out a way to break the news to them because they were still my family at the end of the day.
"so what were you two talking about, it seemed serious" I said looking at the both of them. They were quiet for a few seconds "guys... You know that you can tell me anything right?"
Marcia nodded her head "yes, you deserve to know just promise you won't stress out again. You have been through a lot already"
I nodded my head, what could possibly stress me out more than the child I was carrying and the multiple murder attempts I was facing. "Ofcourse I promise I will not stress out"
"so apparently your mates people are planning on dethroning him because of you" Marcia said and I laughed
What a joke "are you guys serious? Why because of me, what do you mean. Can they even do that?"
Amara sighed "yes they can, there are rumors going that he is weak. That only a weak king would have been given a human mate and a weak king would accept such a fate. They are saying he doesn't deserve to be their king so they will dethrone him"
