Sold To The Alphas I Hate novel Chapter 320

Chapter 320: Round Belly

Eira’s POV

Kael and Raven had gone downstairs after getting ready, while I went to take a bath. Coming out of the bathroom, I stood in front of the mirror, wrapped in a towel.

I had a relaxing sleep last night in Kael’s arms. These days, Raven rarely woke up in pain, so Kael preferred to sleep by my side as Raven didn’t need him.

I felt comfortable and familiar with him, so when he said he loved me, I felt the same. I didn’t say it for the sake of it. It came straight from my heart.

I admit there was still bitterness inside me, but the sweetness I was experiencing was helping me suppress it, or rather, slowly get over it.

He was the father of my babies.

As I thought about the babies, my gaze moved to my belly, which had grown a little from being entirely flat.

I removed the towel and looked at my slightly rounded belly in the mirror.

So this is how it looks in the early stage of pregnancy. Slowly, it will get bigger.

Back then, when I got to know I was pregnant, my belly was already bigger than this. I never got to see myself like this. I could only feel it with my hands in that always dimly lit room, and whatever little view I could get by lowering my head.

This time, I was going to see it every day and experience it.

I was so lost in my own world with my baby that I didn’t realise someone had entered the room and was already standing behind me.

Kael.

His hand settled over mine, which was resting on my belly.

Startled, I looked at him through the mirror. His chin rested on my shoulder, his cheek gently brushing against mine as he said, "Our baby is growing well."

I hummed and then realised my state in the reflection. Naked.

I slowly moved my hand, trying to cover myself, though I wasn’t even sure what I was trying to hide.

His other hand caught mine, stopping me. "Not like I haven’t seen you naked."

I gave up because he was right. Still, seeing myself like this while he watched me felt a little embarrassing.

"You look beautiful with this small round belly. I can’t wait for it to grow more."

I hummed, wishing to see it grow as well.

"We will have to buy maternity clothes for you," he said. "We will do it soon."

I hummed again, delighted to hear that.

"I need to get ready," I told him.

He let me go, as we had to leave for the council meeting. I wasn’t sure what was going to happen there regarding Raven, but I would follow the instructions they had given me so I wouldn’t become a nuisance. It was about Raven, after all.

I hoped everything would be alright.

Lucian and Rafe got back into the car once the others were out of sight. Both of them sat on either side of me, trapping me between the two.

"The car is big enough for you two to sit anywhere else," I frowned.

"Stop throwing tantrums, Caldwell," Rafe countered and made himself comfortable anyway.

This bloodsucker was useless, so I looked at Lucian instead.

"You will be more comfortable between us," Lucian said as he pressed a button and rolled up the windows. The glass was dark-tinted so no one outside could see us... see me.

"If you get bored, let us know," Rafe turned to look at me, his tone suggestive. "We have some good tricks up our sleeves to keep you entertained."

Before I could respond, I heard Lucian say, "We will make sure you enjoy and ask for more."

I looked at Lucian. His eyes truly carried the intentions his words implied.

This bastard was always on a high dose of testosterone and seemed ready to get horny at any moment. He was dangerous. His words couldn’t be taken lightly.

I was stuck between a bloodsucker and a horny wolf.

I let out a helpless sigh and leaned back in my seat silently.
