Chapter Twenty-Five

[Ra’ne’s POV]

I was happy Kin had come for me so quickly but I was still more than upset I had been pushed so far. I was not happy that I was looked at for this much. They were all going to expect me to become this great Luna that had all the answers to the problems of the Pack.

I had answers to nothing. I couldn’t even figure out how to take care of the pup that was growing in my own belly let alone anyone else’s pup.

How was I going to do any of this!?!

Kin had taken me out of my little hole and brought me back to the room and held me through the night. It had calmed me down but it had not been solved, just pushed off until a later time.

I was still laying in bed with Kin’s arms tightly around me and I didn’t really want to move but I knew I was going to need to, I had to pee.

I was only two months along but this kid was making my bladder smaller by the day I swear. Suddenly my stomach churned and I was out of the bed and in the bathroom not only for needing to urinate. I was hurling into the toilet everything I had eaten the night before.

Great, now I have morning sickness. Lovely.

Kin was right behind me in an instant. The moment I had lept from the bed I knew he had woken up and followed after me, but I was too focused on not hurling on the floor. I didn’t need a mess to clean up so early in the morning.

After my stomach was empty I brushed my teeth and brushed my hair, before finishing in the bathroom and going back into the bedroom where Kin was waiting for me.

He held his arms out for me when he noticed me and I smiled at him, going into his embrace. “Feeling any better?” he asked and he nuzzled my neck, inhaling my scent.

“A little but now I am starving.” I said giggling a little at the irony of it all.

Kin chuckled and lifted me from the floor to set me on his shoulder. “Then we will get you some food.” he said as he carried me to our little kitchen down the short little hall.

Sitting me at the bar he turned to the fridge, pulling open the door to pull out the gallon of milk. “What would you like to eat my little ember?” he asked me as he stuck his head back into the fridge.

I giggled again, he was adorable to me. He was so intimidating to everyone else but to me he was this soft cuddly little teddy bear and I could never see Kin as anything else.

“I’m not sure what your pup will let me eat.” I groaned as I placed my hands on my stomach and sighed.

Kin came over and placed his hand over mine and kissed my cheek, “Don’t worry love, I am right here and we will get through this together.” he whispered against my neck as he went back to the fridge to begin pulling out a variety of things.

He set them all in front of me before sitting next to me, a smile on his face. “Pick at whatever you think you can eat little ember and if you don’t like it then don’t eat it.” he said as he began to munch on some of the cold cuts in front of us.

I giggled and leaned into him as I picked up a piece of cold cut roast beef. I had wanted to eat some kind of meat for the past few days but my stomach had not been holding it in and I was more than angry with my little pup for not letting me eat what I wanted.

When I swallowed my first bite of meat I knew I was not going to be able to finish it so I immediately spit it back out into a napkin and began to eat the fruit in front of me with a sad look in my eyes. I hated that I couldn’t eat meat without feeling sick.

Kin reached out for me, a knowing look in his eyes as I took his hand in mine. He stood and put the plate of meat away and began to eat the fruit with me instead. Kin was showing me silently that if I couldn’t eat meat neither would he.

I smiled at him and when he sat next to me I leaned into him as we finished eating. I was happy that for the rest of the day I didn’t hurl and was able to keep my food down but again I wasn’t able to eat the things I had wanted to eat.

True to his words, for the next few weeks, Kin had kept everyone out of our rooms and when we left for the kitchen I didn’t see a single soul around. He was making sure it was just the two of us. I loved him even more for it.

It was a routine for us, we would wake up early and he would go through his Alpha paperwork that had been left in front of the door the night before while I cleaned or just sat in his lap. He would tell me all about the Pack and the way things worked and what he was working on.

It was nice to know he was trying to teach me everything in his own way. I enjoyed it very much. We spent our days like that and our nights making love. I couldn’t get enough of his gentle touches and I don’t think he could stop touching me.

It was bliss until my stomach began to grow even more. My hormones began to get out of control and I soon only wanted meat. At four months, the food I couldn’t stomach before was now the only thing I could keep down.

I was getting angry for no reason and I had no way to stop all of this until the puppy came. Again I had no answers. Skie had stopped talking to me since the incident when I freaked out and crawled under the floor. I knew he was still there but he didn’t want to talk to me.

That was hurting me too and it was pissing me off more every day. There was something wrong with him and I needed to figure it out.

I went to Kin first, knowing he would need to know why I needed this. “Kin,” I called out to him, as he sat at his desk filled with paperwork.

He stopped what he was doing and looked up at me. “Yes?” he asked, holding his hand out to me.

I smiled and went to him instantly, letting him pull me into his lap. “I don’t know how to ask this,” I said hanging my head, a frown coming to my face.

Kin and Julius had become even more protective over me and they could see that I was upset and the low growl I heard was upsetting. “What’s wrong, my little ember?” Kin asked, trying to control his temper.

“Skie hasn’t spoken to me in a long time and I’m lonely without him. Why hasn’t he talked to me??” I asked getting a very shocked looked from my Mate.

“Skie hasn’t spoken to you?” Kin asked me, as he stood with me in his arms, holding me close to his chest. “For four months your Wolf hasn’t spoken a word to you?” he asked me his voice a little gruff, getting me to feel as if I was about to be punished.

I nodded and shrank in on myself trying to hide as he carried me out of our bedroom and into the hallway. He moved too swiftly for me to keep track of where we were going but in the end we ended up in another room that looked like Arion’s medical room.

“Alpha Kin!” an unfamiliar female voice called out as its owner came rushing forward, a worried look in crimson eyes.

“Where is Liric?” Kin questioned not giving the female a second thought, getting me to smile smugly. At least to myself.

“He is in the back Alpha Kin, I will fetch him for you.” the female said before quickly disappearing through another door.

Kin looked down at me, his face changing to one of concern, “Please, baby, you should have told me sooner. This is serious. You did something to Skie. We need to get to him now.” Kin said getting me to look at him like he had grown another head.

I had what!! I did something to Skie? What did he mean? How could I have done something to Skie? I just don’t understand what that FUCK is going on!!! What is going on with my Wolf!!!

How could I have done this to him? How could I have hurt him? I never meant to hurt Skie. He’s my best friend. He’s the best part of me. He always has been.

What am I going to do now??
