**Cleo POV: **
"Shhhh...Cleo please stop crying, it's not good for the pups", Jazz says.
"Jazz, it's not fair. He can't kill someone because he fell asleep. Dude has been taking care of his baby all night", I said.
"He can and unfortunately he will. Cleo, you have to understand that the patrols are our first line of defense. What if Vintage didn't get to you on time?", Jazz said. But the thought of a baby growing up without its father breaks my heart.
There was a knock on the door and the Doctor walked in. He said Vintage asked him to check on me. And from the sympathetic look he gives me he is aware of the events that took place. He checked my blood pressure, the babies' heartbeats, as well as a visual check of the babies. As the Doctor walked out, Francis and Claret walked in with worried looks on their faces.
"Oh, my Goddess Cleo, are you okay?", Claret asked.
"I am fine", I say as I drink some water.
"Do we know how the hell a rogue got on the lands again?", Francis said, trying to control his anger.
"The man who was patrolling was sleeping after being up all night with his pup", I explained.
"That sucks because Vintage is surely going to execute him", Francis said nonchalantly.
“How are you guys okay with killing someone. The man had a good reason”, I said pissed off.
“Yes, dear he might have a good reason but. But that good reason could have cost you your life and the life of the pups”, Francis said.
“It's just not fair”, I said trying to hold back tears.
“This life isn’t fair. And as the daughter of an Alpha you know that already”, Claret said.
“What about his mate and pup?”, I asked.
“They will be okay”, Francis said.
Then out of nowhere, I started crying hard again. Everyone was trying to calm me down. But it wasn't working. We heard someone clear their throat and saw Vintage standing there in the doorway. Everyone looked at him and let me deal with the task of trying to convince him not to kill a father who has been caring for his baby while his mate sleeps.
I sit on the bed quietly as I watch him slowly walk toward me. He looks like he is trying to figure out how to start a conversation. It seemed like forever when he finally sat on the bed, he didn't even look at me.
"Going forward you are not allowed to go anywhere by yourself", he said in a low tone.
"I was just relaxing in the garden for a while", I said as I turned to look at him.
"How are the pups", he said, ignoring what I had just said.
"The doctor said they are fine. I am fine thanks for asking", I said with an attitude.
"Cleopatra, don't give me any attitude, not today. I am trying to stay calm. But don't test me", he said as he rubbed my stomach to calm himself down.
"Vintage I am hungry, can you get me something to eat", I said. I really want him away from me right now.
"No, I will have someone bring us lunch so we can eat and talk", he said. I wish he will give Val control back.
"I don't want to talk right now", I said, pushing him away.
"We have to talk. Things need to be clear between you and me", he said as he pulled me closer.
"FINE YOU WANNA TALK....THAN TALK!", I am starting to get upset with him.
"First off, watch how you talk to me. You might be pregnant, but I will still spank your ass red. Second, don't ever undermine my decision in public again. Third, don't even think about trying to change my decision about the patroller, he will die at dawn. And fourth STOP TAKING THE FUCKING STAIRS!", he yelled the last part. I huffed and rolled my eyes.
"DON'T PISS ME OFF AND I WON'T GIVE YOU ATTITUDE! Spank my chestnut ass red if you want. And I guarantee you these babies will be the last you have because I will castrate you. I am your equal. We are supposed to be a team that works together. You can't just sentence someone to death for doing something like sleeping. Which, by the way, I am sure there will be times after the kids are born that you will be sleeping on the job as well. You know I didn't like taking the elevator and you were busy", just as I finished an Omega came in with our lunch.
We ate it in silence. It seemed as if Vintage and Valenzano were having a conversation. I am full of emotions right now. I am angry, scared, disappointed, horny as fuck. I miss sex with Vintage, especially angry sex with Vintage.
I side-eye Vintage. I can see he can feel my emotions, his noise is flaring, telling me he smells my arousal. I focused on feeling his emotions as well. He is pissed and just as horny as I am. But he doesn't serve any pussy.
"You were talking to him.... what were you talking about?", he asked.
"More like he was talking to me", I say with an attitude.
"CLEOPATRA THIS IS IMPORTANT", he yells.
"Basically, he said he wanted to see what the hype was about. Apparently, I have his leader over the edge", I said with a shrug.
"Did he say who the leader is?", he asked me.
"Nope, he said he mind as well take me out now other than to wait", I said.
Vintage explained to me he has to kill the patroller, even though I don't want him to. Also, he is increasing border patrols. This is not fair I won’t let him kill the guy for being a dad.
“Vintage you are not going to kill him”,I said calmly but my heart is racing.
“I am and I am not going to repeat myself”, he said more calmly than I like.
“You kill him you mind as well kill every other new father here in the pack”, I said standing my ground.
“Watch it Cleopatra”, he snapped.
“DON’T YOU FUCKING DARE SNAP AT ME! I AM YOUR MATRE, THE MOTHER OF YOUR CHILDREN. AND YOU THE MAN I LOVE WONT KILL NAR GOT IT!”, I yells so loudly the room started to shake.
Vintage looked shocked and maybe a little scared. Hell, I am surprised as well. He seems like he is fighting the urge to bow in submission. I started to feel dizzy. What the hell is going on with me? I hide my dizziness. I crawl in the bed and get under the covers. Vintage took that time to talk.
Apparently now I can't go anywhere without him, West or Jazz. As well as he is requiring me to keep a weapon on me at all times. Basically, I am on house arrest. I am going to sleep for the rest of the day. I wanted to spend time with Vintage so my dizziness can die down. But he left me to interrogate the rogue.
