The Abused Luna’s Comeback - Chapter 163
[Rose’s P.O.V.]
I almost ground my teeth when Edward told us that he had been forced to play along with the rumors that he was going to make Emily the pack’s new Luna. Moreover, even though Edward had proof that those b*tches were evil, he was still not ready to arrest them immediately,
I protested and he told me to calm down because regardless, they would definitely get the punishment they deserved. But he still needed Emily for something. I sighed, still upset.
I had never said anything mean to Emily or Eve, so I didn’t know why they hated me so much to the point that they were willing to spend so much money and effort to orchestrate all of this. In a way, not only had they destroyed my relationship with Alpha, but Emily had almost killed Edward twice and I found that truly intolerable!
It was getting late so Edward had offered to put our little meeting on hold on because I needed enough rest. Alonso and Susanna offered to put him up and he was more than happy to do so.
I was still a little unhappy with the way he handled the situation, but now I was just looking forward to having him sleep next to me.
Edward helped me into the bathroom. He filled the tub with water and put me in it. Then he took off his shirt and began to scrub me down. God, I could barely take my eyes off his perfect muscle line. His pecs were so sexy and the only thing sexier than that was his abs. He was gorgeous.
This was the first time I was naked before him in a long time. And honestly, I was a little shy, especially when I saw that his jeans had turned into a big tent and heard the thoughts in his head.
Edward’s big warm hands touched my skin and I could feel my sensitive parts start to heat up before some fluid came out. Charlotte was howling in pure joy inside me. It had been a long time since she had seen Champion too. She even made some flirtatious gestures. It seemed that being pregnant had caused my estrogen production to be quite high. It was still winter but my wolf had already entered spring ahead of time.
I noticed that Edward was muttering a few curses to himself, but he still didn’t stop bathing me.
“Baby, what are you talking about?” asked I.
“Nothing. I was fighting with my wolf just now. That stupid wolf almost took control of my body. He can’t wait to see Charlotte.”
I laughed. Edward loved me, and Champion loved Charlotte.
“Angel, I once had a dream about you, and the amazing thing was that I was in this bathroom in the dream, also helping you take a bath. You wanted to tell me about our child, but you suddenly disappeared.”
“Seriously? Because I had the same dream.”
“So what happened to our child?” asked he anxiously as he looked into my eyes.
“After I came here, Alonso found me a doctor in obstetrics and gynecology. She was also a werewolf, put in charge of my pregnancy check-ups. But during the recent check-up, she told me that there was something wrong with the child’s spine.”
I didn’t want to use words like deformities or disabled to describe my child. I didn’t want to believe that it was its fate.
“What exactly is the problem?” I saw Edward frown. He stopped his actions but he didn’t sound panicked.
“It’s not clear yet. The ultrasound showed that there is a strip-shaped foreign body at the end of his spine. Moreover, it’s too big. I might need to have an induced labor ahead of time. I had a crazy argument with Alonso because of this. He said that the problem of the child’s spine can not be solved at this stage. Everything can only wait until after I give birth. Susanna and Charlotte both think that he has a point.”
Although I just wanted to state it calmly, I still felt wronged when I spoke about all of this in front of my husband. I felt wronged for our child.
“After tomorrow’s morning pregnancy test, I will immediately consult with Dr. Baldwin and the other medical resources under my command. Dearest, don’t worry about this. The child’s father is here to solve all of this. Our child will definitely grow up healthy and happy.”
I nodded as Edward placed his hand on the back of my head and lowered his head to kiss my forehead. I saw the thoughts that flashed through his mind, but I did not expose them. The news made him feel anxious, but he did not show it. He simply wanted to be emotionally stable to keep me calm too.
Once I was done with my bath, Edward toweled me off, helped me put on my clothes, and tucked me into bed. Then, he headed off into the bathroom for his shower before he got into bed next to me.
I rested my head on his strong arm as his scent and goodnight kiss reassured me. Soon, my eyelids began to droop. I thought I would finally get a good night’s sleep tonight, but I had no idea that the devil was waiting for me in the dark.
