Raul and Hayley have not been in good talking terms for days now because Raul could not bear the thought of his mate becoming pregnant. He was jealous and had refused to accept the news.
Hayley laid in bed looking away from him that night. Raul lay in bed looking away from her too. She could not phantom why Raul would be mad at the news of becoming a father. She was silent for a few seconds after realizing that he was almost asleep as usual and then she started.
“I don’t get it, Raul. You’re serious about me taking out this pregnancy?”
Raul was silent for a while. Then after a few minutes, he turned to face her but she was still backing him and said, “I can’t have a baby now. It’s too risky at this point considering the war and us… we just started out together and now a baby? I can’t handle losing our time together as a couple because you have to perform some mummy duties.”
Hayley turned to face him slowly on hearing this. “Who said anything abo
Stan narrated to the senior nurse from the beginning of when the paramedics brought Hayley into when the doctor released her to go home and he took her into his home.“Yeah; I remember that day.” the senior nurse said interrupting his long story and this made Stan’s face light up in excitement.“You do?” he asked in excitement.The nurse smiled and nodded. “Yes sir, I do.”Stan was amazed. He watched her get on her feet and added. “So, will you help me get an appointment with the doctor?”“No! I actually think that I might be able to help you.”Stan was confused. “How do you intend to help me?”“I guess you want access to her records, right?”“Is that possible?”“Well, you would have to be the police or a private investigator to be able to gain access to such documents here because we do not share our patient
Ella was furious on hearing the information from Betty. She felt betrayed and made to drop the call when Betty pleaded with her. Stan watched in silence, though he was not able to hear everything clearly, he could imagine what was been said from the look on Betty’s face.“Please Ella, for the love we once shared; don’t be mad at me. I need you now more than ever. Please hear me out. It’s not what you think.” Betty pleaded. “I knew that you were going to slip. I just wasn’t sure when but I knew that your jealousy was going to make you ruin the trust I had for you.”Betty said nothing. She knew that Ella was right and that she had betrayed their trust. She wondered what Raul’s reaction would be if Ella told him of her betrayal. She recalled that werewolves do not handle betrayal well. It could even lead to her death lest she is granted mercy by any of the alphas.“We exposed our family life
Stan had visited the mayor earlier but met her absence. Though she was informed of his visit, she was too busy with matters of state and preparations of Collen’s war with the priest in the mainlands to think of anything else.Stan did not mind revisiting whether or not she responded to the many messages he dropped by the house through her servants. After all, his reason for the urgent visit to him was also a matter of state and was in fact of more importance to her than anyone else.This time, he met her presence and was booked to see her after the other guests. He was more than happy to wait and the mayor had also instructed them to entertain him with food and drinks while he waited for her. Stan had so much to eat and drink; he was treated like a special guest. He waited for long hours and almost fell asleep in the lobby where he waited.Finally, the mayor showed up. She approached him with a wide smile on her face on seeing how tired he was.&ldq
Stan was convinced that werewolves have the best lives. They are united, they have one mind and look out for one another. But he wondered why they always had to fight over power or something.“I like werewolves; I mean, if you, Raul, and Hayley who I know very well are werewolves and have so far behaved in a civilized manner; then I believe all werewolves are good just like you.”“Why thank you, Stan. That is such a nice thing to say.” Kara smiled.He smiled and then turned towards Edna and added. “You are a brave young lady. I don’t know how best to address you now believing that you might be even older than I am…” he paused and chuckled nervously for lack of words.“Thank you, sir,” Edna replied with a smile as she got on her feet. “I am sure that you are still much older than I am. I don’t know what my current age is in the werewolf world but I know that I was… or I am in m
Raul returned to find a full house. He was surprised to see Lucas’ Luna and guards in his house. He thought that something was wrong with Lucas which was why they had come to his house. There was silence in the room for a while because Raul had a history with Lucas and since his family was there, no one knew what his reaction was going to be.The Luna got on her and approached him to hug him. Raul gazed in surprise at her but he reciprocated the hug.“I understand you are shocked to see us here but I want to let you know that we have come in good faith.”Raul smiled as he gazed into her eyes. “I’m just surprised to see you all here. When did you guys arrive in the world of the originals?”“One day ago. We traced you to some girl’s house where we found Kal.” The Luna narrated.Kal smiled at Raul who dashed him a quick stare. He knew that it was Claire’s house that the lunar was talking abou
The luna did not still like the idea of having a witch in their midst and especially because of the experience with the priest and Modi. She lost all sense of trust for any shaman who is an original.Raul had left to fetch the witch to treat Hayley’s fever. The luna decided to leave her alone for a while since she was a little calm. Hayley opened her eyes after the luna had shut the door. She recalled Raul’s words about her pregnancy and it made her feel even worse.She had thought that he would come around and learn to accept it in time but she realized that it was not going to happen. She could not even phantom why he detested a baby he hardly even knew and she started devising other plans in her heart to escape from being around Raul at the moment since the thought was driving her crazy and making her even sicker.Hayley began to think of visiting her sister in Wizzletown. She was missing her so much especially since Raul had a lot of engagement a
The witch asked to be alone with Hayley and the luna while she checked Hayley's health and everyone else left the room. She sat beside Hayley in bed and smiled at her while she checked her temperature with the back of her hand.The luna stood at a corner and watched them calmly as they communicated. She realized that they had a bond of friendship which was impressive but she still wondered why the witch's presence was important in their midst. The witch, still on Hayley's health reached out for her tools in the bag she came along with. She took out a small bottle and had it suspended the where everyone present could see.Then she turned towards the luna who gazed in astonishment and smiled. It was almost as if she knew what the luna was thinking all this time. She then turned towards Hayley who broke into her thoughts to listen to her comments."What is that thing?" Hayley asked in curiosity.The witch exhaled ready to begin an explanatory session and rep
The next day, Raul was up and ready to leave for his training. Hayley was still in bed but soon some up to find him all dressed up to leave. She watched him in silence, he did not realize that she was already up and was watching him.She recalled that she had told the witch on the previous day of her worries which was one of the reasons for her difficulty in pregnancy. She had told the witch of Raul's refusal to accept the baby and how it got her devastated so she had decided to visit her sister in Wizzletown. The witch had explained to her that going to her sister's place was a good idea to cool off and relax. Because a pregnant woman need not be under pressure at all.She wanted to discuss it with Raul before he left for his training. He seemed so excited and she knew that it was all because he had to train since he enjoyed combat and most especially, when he was winning. He turned and realized that she was awake and smiled at her. He gave her a peck on the cheek and
