Chapter 91
I was pretty sure this food tasted a lot better than it did last night even when it was the same recipe and ingredients, but somehow my tongue was watering for it. The scent was heavenly and so was the taste and I hummed with joy as I stuffed my mouth full.
“Wow Freya I didn’t know you were that hungry.” Christie commented but I ignored her. The food was a lot more important to me at this point.
“I just hope Master doesn’t think I don’t feed you with the way you’re practically inhaling that food. It’s just 11am and that’s your third meal.” She said again and I paused in my eating.
“Aargghh since I can’t eat peacefully here, I’m going somewhere else.” I said irritated by the fact that she wouldn’t stop talking and just allow me enjoy my meal in peace.
“Freya, I didn’t mean to offend you, I just wanted to be sure you’re fine.”
I was already half way through the door with my plate in my hands before she could complete her sentence.
I made my way to Greyson’s office, I didn’t want to stay alone and since I knew he would be in there working by himself I took it upon myself to be his company.
I know, very thoughtful of me.
I didn’t bother knocking, I just opened the door and stepped into the space. He raised his head from the papers in front of him, a frown already marring his features and he looked like he was about to tell off whoever had just entered the space. But all the frown melted away when he discovered it was me.
“Hi darling, I wasn’t expecting a visit from you.”
“Christie wouldn’t let me eat my food in peace so I came in here to do so.” I responded, settling on one of the comfortable sofas at the end of the space.
Greyson chuckled at my words and shook his head. The Alpha had a fond look in his eyes and I couldn’t help but notice how it felt like I was staring at a very different version of the man I had met many months ago at the auction house.
The smile that painted his lips was genuine and beautiful and it made his features so much younger. I preferred this version a thousand times to the cold, ruthless man I had initially met.
It was hard to believe that this man with the coldest exterior and a knack for taking no nonsense was the same man that was the sweetest and kindest mate, the most loving and patient father. It felt surreal.
“Someone is checking me out.” He joked and I giggled.
“I have the right to.”
“I don’t remember giving you that right.” He said.
“You don’t have to.”
A knock came on the door, interrupting whatever Greyson was about to say. The frown was back on his face in zero seconds flat and it made me laugh.
Smith entered the office and he turned towards me first to say hi.
“I didn’t ask you to come in.” Greyson said not bothering to hide the annoyance in his voice.
“You don’t have to.” Smith responded and I almost rolled on the floor from laughing so hard at the look on Greyson’s face.
“You look gorgeous Freya, Goddess, you’re glowing.” Smith complimented and I blushed to the tip of my toes.
“Don’t talk to her, don’t come close to her, don’t even look at her.” Greyson’s deep voice came from in front of me before I could even respond.
When did he move?
“Geez! Possessive much?” Smith said, but thankfully he didn’t make a big deal of Greyson’s behavior, instead he moved to sit in the chair opposite the one Greyson had previously occupied.
The Alpha placed a kiss on my head before returning back to his seat.
I swear I didn’t understand the man sometimes.
They both began discussing things that concerned the pack and then soon after they moved to the feast of Alphas. I wasn’t looking forward to that, so many Alphas in one place was never anything to look forward to. Plus the last time i attended one, I ended up pregnant.
I was still thinking of a way that I could convince Greyson to let me stay locked up in our room during the feast. I wasn’t scared that someone would try to sleep with me against my will again, I knew Greyson would have their heads before they even had the opportunity to be around me for that long.
I just didn’t enjoy the idea of so many Alphas in one place at the same time.
I tuned out of their discussion and laid across the sofa. I think I was hungry again but the last thing I wanted was going to the kitchen and meeting Christie there again and asking for more food. Goddess, I really was eating a lot. Maybe a little sleep would help me pass the time until lunch.
The next time I opened my eyes, it was to find myself in a field with very bright lights surrounding it. I blinked once then twice to try to clear my surroundings a little, but it didn’t fade.
I heard voices in the distance and I squinted my eyes at the fogginess before me hoping to be able to catch the owner of the voices.
It didn’t take very long for them to appear. Out of the fog came Jessy, Simon then Greyson with two bundles in his hands. He had a wide smile on his face, in fact they were all beaming with excitement.
I gasped in shock. Could it be?
“Freya, Freya, wake up baby.” I heard Greyson say and I furrowed my brows in confusion.NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
Wake up?
Soon the fog began to clear and the bright light began to fade until I was met with Greyson’s face really close to mine.
“Any closer to me and we could as well be kissing.” I commented and the idiot laughed hard.
“That was my next plan.”
I realized that I had been moved to the room. The curtain had been drawn close so I couldn’t tell what time of the day it was but when I looked to the clock on the table the blinking red numbers showed 6. 45. pm
“Goddess! I’ve been sleeping for so long why didn’t you wake me up?”
“I was trying to plan something.” Came Greyson’s response.
And I was about to respond to that comment when my stomach rumbled and with the rumble came a flood of my dream.
I gasped out as the memories of the dream surfaced in my mind. Reaching out a hand to pat my stomach. Instead of the soft flesh that I was used to having there, I was met with a very hard surface.
“What? What is it? Why did you gasp like that?” Greyson asked with shock and fear coating his words.
“I’m pregnant again.”
