Chapter 416
416 I AM PREGNANT
Jasmine walked down the empty corridor with her new guards following behind her. Her old guards were gradually replaced, since Liam relocated Darius to a different place, as he gave him another assignment.
But, it was easy to tell that the alpha knew there was something fishy between the two of them, or else, he wouldn’t take that decision. The tension between them had not yet died down, if anything, it only intensified.
Jasmine didn’t know why Liam didn’t confront her, because it didn’t look like him at all to let this kind of thing go.
But, seeing what happened recently, Jasmine knew this would be the perfect opportunity for Liam to get rid of Darius, since there was no way in hell he would kick that little lycan out of this pack. He was too precious to him.
It was not wrong, because in the past, Eros spelled a precious project to the facility as well.
He had hundreds of warriors and even more of the young werewolves in this pack, who would be the next generation of his warriors, but he only had one lycan.
Yet, what Jasmine was concerned about the most was; using which method, Liam planned to get rid of Darius? Would he just shun him away? Would he kill him?
No... there was no excuse for Liam to kill Darius.
But of course, he could come up with a flawless one if getting rid of him was really on his agenda.
.....
Jasmine then glanced at the two guards, who kept following her, if Randy was still her guard, he would have warned her that she was digging her own grave by walking over to Darius’ room.
It almost looked like she was trying to publish their own affair.
Maybe not everyone knew about this, but for sure, all the guards, who were assigned to take care of her, while the alpha was away, had this suspicion.
They didn’t talk about it out loud, as there was a tacit understanding between them.
However, the two guards behind Jasmine said nothing. They just followed her. Their duty was to be with her and protect her, thus that was what they did.
Jasmine didn’t know what was in Liam’s mind and why he gave such an order to them, when he could come to her and ask her directly about her relationship with Darius.
But right now, that did not matter, because she needed to do something else. She needed to meet Darius to talk about something else...
“Stay at least three steps away from the door,” Jasmine warned them, because she didn’t want to take any risk of them listening to her conversation with Darius. This was something that she didn’t want anyone to hear.
And after that, she knocked on the door.
It took a long time before finally Darius opened the door. If it was not for those guards telling her that they could smell his scent from behind the door, which meant he was inside, Jasmine would have walked away from there thinking Darius was not in his room.
“What is it?” Darius asked Jasmine, his voice was a little bit harsh, but then he knew his mistake and shook his head, as he repeated the same question, but this time in a nicer way, or at the very least he tried to not sound so mean.
“There is something I need to talk to you about,” Jasmine said immediately, but Darius looked past her and stared at the two guards. He must know them, since they were all warriors. “Come here.”
And, before Darius could decide whether or not it was safe for her to enter his room, Jasmine had pushed him into the room and closed the door behind her. She looked a little bit pale, but as fierce as ever.
Her fierceness was something that Darius admired the most about her, as if there was fire that wouldn’t die in her eyes.
“What do you want...?”
Darius was a little bit taken aback with the way she acted, but she should have known that the alpha was already back, thus she needed to be more careful, unless she really wanted him to know, which Darius did not mind at all.
“I am pregnant,” she blurted out.
For a moment, Darius stayed silent, as the last thing that he expected to hear tonight was hearing someone carrying his child. Pregnant with his child.
Darius had spent the last few days in a blur. He was so angry and didn’t know how to vent it out. He couldn’t go to the training ground to blow off some steam either.
But actually, why he kept low was because he was waiting for the alpha to release that wretched lycan. And right after he did so, Darius would hunt Eros down like a mad dog and wouldn’t stop until his claws and fangs were covered in his blood.
But, what did Jasmine say a moment ago?
“What?” Darius took two steps back unconsciously, as if Jasmine had turned into someone that he feared the most.
“I am pregnant with your child,” Jasmine repeated her words again, but this time she emphasized every single one of them, so Darius could hear her clearly.
Darius was shocked, he opened his mouth to say something, but he couldn’t find the right words to say. He shook his head, as if by doing that, he could get rid of this thought.
There was so much in his mind to think of, thus he felt like he didn’t have enough space for another trouble, but then, it was his child that they were talking about.
“A child? My child?” Darius narrowed his eyes and watched how Jasmine nodded firmly, as she walked past him across his room before sitting down on the edge of his bed. The same bed they made love on a few weeks ago.
The image was still clear in his head.
