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.
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.
