Sold To The Alphas I Hate-Chapter 296: Baby Will Flip Inside

Kael’s POV

"We will take a leave then," I heard Liam tell my brothers as they left.

I didn’t respond, as my sole attention was on my mate and her emotions.

I held Eira’s hand. "Are you alright?"

She nodded, but then leaned ahead and hugged me.

It took me by surprise, but my hands had already moved to circle her.

"I am just happy," she mumbled against my chest, her tears soaking my shirt.

"So am I," I told her. "And we are going to cherish each moment ahead with our kids."

She hummed again.

I released her and wiped her tears. "We should head out. You need to eat and have the medicines that the doctor has prescribed."

She nodded like an obedient girl. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

My brothers were still there, watching us. I knew they were happy just like the two of us.

I helped her get out of the bed. Just as we walked to the door, Lucian came to her.

She looked at him, and he lifted her in his arms. "You shouldn’t walk. The baby is literally floating in water, and your hasty steps will make it flip around in tiny places."

"What?" Eira seemed shocked at his logic. "It doesn’t happen that way..."

"Shh!"

She shut her mouth and let him carry her.

The rest of us could only smile at his logic.

"Jason, you should have taught him something when you were studying biology," Roman said. "No wonder he couldn’t make it to the medical field despite Jennifer wanting her son to be a doctor. Thankfully she had another son Jason, or this Lucian would have been a total disappointment."

"He was more interested in technical studies," Jason said. "He is perfect there."

Rafe let out a sigh. "At least tell him that the baby won’t flip. Even I know that despite being entirely in the technical field."

"Let him be," I said.

He was trying to be responsible towards Eira, so we shouldn’t meddle in it.

Roman, Rafe, and I were somewhat close to her now. Jason got the responsibility as her home doctor, so Lucian would need some reason to be with her as well.

We watched Lucian place Eira on the sofa. He knelt before her and asked, "What do you want to eat? I will cook it right away."

Good thing she didn’t look reluctant to his care. In fact, since the day entire truth came out, she had been good with all of us, except for her little indifference towards Jason.

"Umm... I want to eat spicy, crunchy, deep-fried chicken and... cold drinks with it."

She knew she shouldn’t eat it, but couldn’t help but ask for it. She almost seemed to be salivating the moment she said it.

Lucian, who preferred healthy food, simply stared at her for a moment. But then, seeing her hopeful gaze at him, he gave up.

"Alright. But you will eat what I serve you. It will be medium spicy, but don’t overdo it. And you have to eat something healthy with it."

She quickly nodded, as if she couldn’t wait to get at least a little of it.

He pecked her forehead and said, "It will be quick."

She hummed excitedly. Jason and Roman went to help in the kitchen, as we had to prepare dinner for everyone. I sat on the sofa and got a laptop to work, while Raven sat next to Eira.

"Caldwell, wipe it well," Rafe said.

She looked at him. "What?"

"Your drool," he teased and sat on the sofa.

She offered him a cold glare and turned to Raven. "Do you like fried chicken?"

He blinked at her.

Not sure how, but she understood. "Oh! You never tried it. Don’t worry, I am the same. I haven’t eaten it in so many years that I almost forgot how it tastes. But today, we will enjoy it."

I realized that in the past six years she had been away from the world and missed out on many things. We should revive everything for her. Let her eat whatever she wants.

Lucian’s POV

What Eira demanded was ready first, so I called her to the dining table, while Jason and Roman continued cooking for the rest of us.

She and Raven settled into their chairs excitedly. Raven was eating it for the first time. Given how strictly his lifestyle was maintained, we knew he had been given only healthy and fixed food.

I set the dishes in front of them and settled into the chair next to Eira as I filled two glasses with cold drinks.

Eira picked up one piece excitedly and looked at Raven. "You eat like this."

Raven followed her. As she chewed one bite, she looked at the glass of cold drinks. Seeing they were half-filled, she looked at me.

"Only that much you get," I told her straightaway, without showing any softness.

She pursed her lips and preferred to drink what she was given.

As both of them enjoyed filling their stomachs, I couldn’t help but look at her, my heart overwhelmed. One of the dreams I once used to have, I could fulfill it every day now, cooking for her while she enjoyed it.

She seemed to have realized I was staring at her and looked at me, her gaze puzzled.

"Want to eat?" she asked.

My gaze moved to her lips, which had sauce coated on them. She was generous while eating sauce.

"Do you want me to?" I asked.

She hummed and pushed the dish toward me. But instead, I leaned closer and licked her lips.

She moved back in surprise and looked at Raven. He was focused on finishing his piece of chicken.

She looked back at me, probably to confront me to be careful in front of Raven, but instead I sealed her lips once more and tasted them again.

I let her go after a few moments. She offered me a glare and looked at Raven again, who was now looking at us.

"Mommy’s lips were stained with sauce, so I helped her clean," I told him. "Do you mind it?"

He moved his gaze from me to Eira, who was speechless. Then he looked at me and shook his head.

"Good," I praised him and put another piece of chicken on his dish. "You deserve to eat more."

I looked back at Eira and offered her a smile. "He didn’t mind."

She frowned and resumed eating, this time being careful not to stain her lips. If she did, she would lick it right away with her tongue while looking away from me, as if I would eat her again.

I leaned closer and whispered, "If you do that, I would be tempted to test the sauce from your tongue."

I could feel the goosebumps rising on her skin. Oh, so she was affected by me.

"Behave," she whispered back.

I leaned back. "We will keep it for later."

She offered me a narrowed-eyed look. "I didn’t know you were this kind."

"What kind?" I offered her a playful smirk.

"Flirt... playboy..." she said with her mouth stuffed with a bite.

"But only for you," I replied smoothly.

Of course she didn’t believe it. But she will, soon.
