Brella POV
My eyes flutter open with the memory of everything that happens. I look around taking in my surroundings it seems I've been move to the living room. As I recognize the pale blue room and the fact that I'm lying on something soft. I rise up hissing at the shape pain in my back in my effort to get up. "Hold it there Brella, not so fast." Max said pushing me back down I shake his hand off me and sit up more carefully. "You need to take it easy."
I look at him seeing the worry in his eyes and I smile at him. I knew he's just looking out for me as he always done. "Don't worry I'm fine.” I reassure him. I look around seeing everybody in the room except my mate. I felt a little disappointed but relieve at the same time. I don't think I could handle seeing him right now especially since I know this isn't our last encounter. I know for sure.
“Brella you should be more careful. Your body couldn't take the stress so it shut down causing you to faint. I advise you to take it easy from now on. Things like this could put you into labor early." I nod my head at Dr. Reid. I couldn't help but to blame him my mate. It's his fault actually. "I'll give you some pain tablets for the pain in your back but I can't guarantee that it will help you since you're having twins." I smile at him gratefully I don't know what I would do without Dr. Reid.
"Wait you're having twins?" Max asked wide eye. His face completely in disbelieves. I smile at him and nod my head. I know females wolf mostly have more than one pups but when I found out I'm having twins I was surprise. To have not one but two creatures growing inside of me. My love for them increases more as each month passed. "I thought I would be the one to surprise you but I guess you’re just full of surprises." Max said scratching his head.
I know what he mean and I didn't want to be united with my brother this way. But I guess life has a way of changing thing up for me lately.
"How are you feeling Brella?" Ryan asked.
“I'm fine so can we get a move on. It's getting late as we know it." I answer. After a long pause my brother finally spoke up.
"Brella is right. We should get moving." He got up offering me a hand which I accept as everyone start filling out the room. In a swift move I was in my brother arms. “Gosh I've missed you so much. I can't believe how much you have grown and I'm not just saying in the belly department.” I chuckle at his comment. Trust my brother to lighten the mood. I have a feeling he and Jace will be good friends.
“I miss you too.” I hug him back. Hugging is so awkward now with my stomach in the way.
We were outside now. Max was now leading me to my car. He put me in the passenger seat as he head around to the driver side. "Hey I can drive my own car you know." I complain. Feeling irritated I wasn't handy cap to not drive I just need to relax. Getting in I strap on my seat belt and pouted at my brother who continue to ignore me. "So who’s driving your truck?" I asked. I've spotted a shiny red truck that I know must belong to him, he always talks about that thing.
"Kiefer will be driving that" He reply. It took me a while to register the name in my head and realize it was my mate name. I never got his name at our first encounter we were busy doing other stuff I recall. Shaking my head to get the picture that suddenly pop in my head out I look out the window as the car start moving I saw in the mirror that the others were following behind. After a while my mind starts to drift off into thoughts.
"Brella you know you need to talk to him," After a long silent Max suddenly came out and said. Which cause me to just stare at him. "I mean you have to sort things."
I look at my brother shock at what he's saying. After what happen back there. "I'm not sure I follow you, why should I even utter a word to Him?" I asked my eyes narrow slightly. "He choose to reject me remember therefore I don't need to speak to him." I half shouted. A little hurt that my brother's kind of taking his side especially after what he put me through.
"Brella," He sighted. "You're as hard headed as ever. Think about the babies would you keep them away from their father? I know you and you wouldn't do that. Even if you won't accept him in your life you'll accept him in the kids. So don't you think you need to talk this through whether you like it or not."
I cursed under my breath. He has a point. I won't do that to my kids that’ll just made me look mean and heartless. Damn him for knowing me so well and being smart with it. I racked my brain to come up with some excuse but to no valid. He was too damn good when it comes to reasons.
"Alright I get what you're saying but I don't have to talk to him now. What I don't understand is how you can be so calm with everything that blows up in your face. I thought you'll be angry with Kiefer or something." Saying his name made my pores raise. I wanted so bad to resent that but the wolf part of me feels a different way.
"Trust me Sis, I'm angry, upset, pissed all kind of things right now. But as future alpha I have to know how to keep a cool head and that my sister I am trying to do."
"Whatever." I rolled my eyes and once again direct my attention through the window. We were now on the high way. I heard him chuckle beside me.
"I see you still have that attitude of yours."
"Just drive." I smile a little as a huge yarn came over me. All this drama was making me tired. Getting a bit comfortable I close my eyes already feeling myself drifting off into sleep land. The last thing on my mind was Kiefer.
