Emerald Eyed Luna novel Nina (by Mrs.Smith) novel Chapter 85

85 /102

Hoping out of the shower to dry off, I could already hear the ‘tap tapping’ sound Kelly was making. She was standing at the vanity waiting impatiently for me to get out so she could do my hair and makeup.

“Do we really have to?” I asked as I dragged myself to the closet. Kelly had picked out a bra and panty set and had pulled a couple dresses to choose from.

As I was putting on the bra and panties, Kelly said “I know we will have a bigger one later, but I still feel like we need to dress up a bit for this! I have the boys putting on nicer clothes too!”

She was waving a makeup brush in a circle to signal me to move faster. I was dressed as far as I was going to so I plopped down on the chair and winced as she grabbed the towel from my hair and pulled it off. “Careful! I am delicate!” I said, giving her a glare.

“Shit, delicate? Try the furthest thing from it!” Kelly said as she made a face at me like that was the furthest thing from the truth.

“So, really, how are you feeling?” I asked, trying to make sure she was feeling okay.

“Can’t you just read me and know?” Kelly said, slightly annoyed.

These pregnancy mood swings will be the death of us. “I could, but I do try not to invade people’s privacy all the time.” I said matter-of-factly.

“I am nervous. It is really like I am leaving home now and I am responsible for myself and now this baby too! I don’t want to live with someone I know, someone I grew up with. I mean, Wyatt has always been down the hall for me. Once this is over, you guys will leave, and it will just be me and Reed here with the baby and I don’t know how to be a mom!” Setting powder went flying as she said and finished up her rant. Sitting down on another chair, she began to sob.

“Hey, stop crying!” I said so uneasily. I hate when people cry, and I have no idea how to help her right now. “Wyatt and I have been talking. We have talked about the fact that we can live anywhere we want after this. Him and I will be King and Queen and that means he can’t stay Alpha of your pack. We will need people around us that will help with the ruling. Maybe you guys can live with us? I think I heard the boys talking about how land was purchased between our packs and maybe we can build a headquarters there!?” I spilled out what I was thinking.

Kelly’s head shot up and looked at me. I felt her relief flood threw me, but I let her tell me how she felt. “Seriously? That would be amazing.” Kelly dried her tears and stood back up, spinning me around to fix my makeup she messed up in the first place. “Do you think Reed will go for it?”

“I think so. You are Wyatt’s sister and with us becoming king and queen, we would assume you would have an active role in how things are running. Plus, Reed has pretty must managed this whole attack tomorrow, sent spies in and what not!”

“Speaking of spies, do you really think Zach and Brooke are to blame?”

“I honestly hope not. I don’t know who else I could be.”

“I know Brooke is insanely jealous of you. She still thinks you are going to take Zach away from her, even though you are with Wyatt. I have tried to talk to her, but she is just not looking at the facts. She started saying weird things too.”

“Like what?”

“How you went after the other future alpha and then you show up with magical jewelry and now you took our alpha. That you guys are fated and your tricking Wyatt into thinking he is your mate. That your just here for our money.”

“Money? What money? I have my own money. I don’t need Wyatt’s money.”

“It’s not Wyatt’s money. Well, at least not yet. It is family money. Our family owns a couple of corporations, that bring in multimillion dollar figures. Once Wyatt takes over, it is his to control and hand it out as he sees fit. Dad has always given us money each month to live on and what not, our own credit card to use, but Brooke has it in her head that you are stealing this money. VERY few people know about this money. I am only telling you because you are Wyatt’s mate, and he will tell you soon enough. He knows you aren’t in it for the money.”

I looked down at my ring. I never really thought about how much this cost. I mean, I knew he had money and he was doing that building building, but I didn’t really think much more about it.

“That ring is not cheap, and I think it sent Brooke over the edge to see that. I think in her mind, you will blow our money and she will be broke. Zach doesn’t come for money, so she is thinking he can’t provide for her.” Kelly said as she eyed the ring as well.

“I had no idea…” I said quietly. “I would never do that to you guys. I have my own money from my parents. Not millions, but close to one million.”

“I know, Wyatt told me when we were talking when you first came to us. He did a background check and everything. Found your accounts and knew you could and would take care of yourself.”

My mouth dropped open to that comment. “A background check? Seriously?”

“I mean, what did you expect? You showed up randomly after killing three murderers and said you were on ‘vacation’?”

“Fair enough” I said, rolling my eyes. Kelly had moved on to my hair at this point and I already felt like I had been here for hours. She had done her hair and makeup when I was showering, so after she finished me, we were ready. “Who else do you think could be behind it?”
