Chapter 108

Brielle's POV

" Oh my God!" Morgan exclaimed after I told them the entire story behind everything.

Kyle was just standing there visibly in shock. Okay, their reactions to the news were highly expected. i know that they have a lot of questions which i am now prepared to answer. It wouldn't be fair for me to lead them into a battle blind. They have every right to know what is going on and why they are fighting and risking their lives.

" This... its a lot to take in," Morgan says, still looking flabbergasted.

" I am sorry for not telling you guys about this earlier. I honestly thought that I wouldn't need to tell you guys about the past. I thought the past would stay in the past. But now we are here, and I need everyone's help to fix this."

" You have been through a lot, Luna. I can't imagine having gone through all that and having to face it once again. For the time I have known you, you have been nothing but loving, kind and supportive. It would be an honor for me to fight besides you and protect you."

Morgan's words almost made me tear up. Despite the bombshell I just threw at them, they were still by my side and not abandoning me.

" That goes for me as well. I will forever stand beside my Alpha and Luna."

After having breakfast, we all parted ways to get some rest. Blake and I went to our room.

" That was brave of you," Blake says.

" I had to be. We can't hide that truth anymore. Not if we want to win and overcome this. We had to let them know that they would give them a choice to stand beside us."

With that truth now in the open, I felt like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders. I have been feeling like I had been deceiving them all this time. Everyone was fighting and thinking that this was just a rogue attack. Now that everything has been cleared, it's for the better.

I remembered the dream I had earlier. My hands immediately covered my tummy. I got lost in thought. Was I really pregnant or was it just a dream after all? I contemplated telling Blake. No, I shouldn't do that now. I will do so once I do a pregnancy test and be certain about it.

" Where are you lost?" Blake asked, pulling me out of my thoughts.

" It's nothing. I was just thinking about the dream I had. She appeared to me."

Blake looked confused. " Who are you talking about?"

" Me, her, us, from the past."

It was kind of weird having to refer to myself as her and still strange to say it's me. It's kind of complicated."

" Oh, oh, her," he said

" What did she say? Could you talk to her?"

" Yes. We did talk. She told me that she was the reason behind my ability to tap into my powers earlier. She told me that in times of need, she would be with me."

Blake smiled a little and seated us on the bed. He took my hand in his as I leaned on his shoulder.

" I'm just happy that you are alright. You seriously gave me quite the scare. I thought I would lose you."

I know how he must have felt. I felt it too when he was out there fighting. I was desperate, and I didn't want him to die and leave me alone, once again. That grief would be too much to handle.

I looked at him and I put my hand on his face. He is so precious to me. I am afraid I won't tell him that. When and how, is beyond me. All I know is that I will never be able to live without him.

" There is nothing to worry about. I'll be careful," I said, trying to reassure him. He places his hand on top of mine and says," I never want you putting yourself in that kind of situation. I know you can protect yourself but... I'm scared. If you get hurt or worse, I won't be able to go on."

I could feel it in his voice. He was scared. Oh dear. Once he finds out about the pregnancy, his fear will grow tenfold. There is nothing I can say to assure him of my protection and safety. And I can't promise that I will stay put and let him do all the fighting. I don't want to be protected and hide. I want to stand by him. In life or in death.

" I feel the same way about you, Blake. When you are in danger, I can't stay put. I spend every minute afraid that its a minute less for you. It's agonizing and all I want is to be with you and make sure you are safe. Wherever you are, I want to be right beside you. All I can say is that no matter what, I'll try hard to stay alive. I won't die and leave you so easily. That is a promise."

" You are a stubborn one, aren't you? There is really nothing I can say to make you sit this one out, is there?"

I laughed and shook my head.

" Nope! You are stuck with me. Always." I leaned my forehead to his. Slowly, he leans in and kisses me softly on the lips. After, he pulls away and he caresses me on the cheek.

" I love you. You do know that, right?"

I smiled happily. " I know that your love for me can't be greater than my love for you," I said, teasing him.

" Oh, really?"

He started tickling me, and we fell on the bed laughing. Laying on our backs, silence fell upon us.

I want everything to go back to normal as soon as possible. All the troubles are over so that our lives can move on. We are still young and figuring shit out, but there is a baby on the way. By the time he or she is born, I want us to be ready and waiting. That's all I want. A normal fucking life.
