SWNOVELS Chapter 159
Chapter 159: Water Bag Broke
Penelope POV
We were expecting pups any say now. I was so bloated that I was having trouble standing up and down. I was looking like a fat cow, and sometimes my mood would plunge as to whether I would ever regain my slim waistline Drexel looked too proud and smug. He didn't leave a chance to tell the people around him that he was responsible for that fat stomach of his Luna. "You look so beautiful, love," he said that every day. Then he would caress my tummy and smile whenever he felt a movement inside
"What happened to Madam Lestrange?" I asked, not believing that Drexel would so smartly take care of that vile woman. I wanted to take my revenge, but my mate beat it to me
He was lying beside me while I was sipping on my evening milk. He chuckled. "She has gone underground. Arthur McLeod went against her
He slapped a case against her for illegal establishment of House of Red Doors. That place is sealed and now under a lot of scrutiny
Many senators and their assistants have got caught in the scandal."
I slapped my hand on my mouth. "How the hell did you manage it?"
"With the help of my beta and others," he
replied with a smug smile
"But she is underground?" I didn't like that part
"L hope she gets caught soon! I don't know how many lives she has destroyed." I felt terrible on
the inside. The woman gave me creeps
Drexel got up and held my hands. "Hey, don't worry. Our men are after her and so are the authorities. She can't stay in her hole for a long time."
I gave him my cup of milk and then rested my head on the fluffy pillow behind. "What about
Ezra?"
Drexel pursed his lips. "Heeee" he paused
I frowned. I knew he was hesitant in giving me
any information that wasn't good, so I goaded him. "What?"
"You ordered our men to throw him off a building the last time you met him?"
I stiffened. "Something like it..."
"Well, they threw him!"
"What the hell!"
Drexel shrugged his shoulders. "He was chasing a woman to drag her into flesh trade. What he didn't know was that the woman was a she-wolf
She called her mate through their mind link
Before Ezra could do anything with her, two werewolves came and threw him off a building in which the woman was hiding."
"Oh. My. God."
"He was a scum. His body was found the next day in the morning by a worker, but no one could understand how he fell. Most think that he fell to his own death because he was too drunk."
I bit my bottom lip. So many things had happened and I was feeling emotionally exhausted. Drexel took me 1n his arms and held me there for a long time. He kissed my temple and said, "I didn't mean to tell you all this, love
I am sorry I made you worry."
"Lam not worried. It's just that I wanted to process it all..."

He continued to hold me for minutes or perhaps hours. Who knew. I just loved being surrounded by his cedar smell. After a long time I looked up at him and said, "What about Willow?"
"I don't know much... She can go to hell from my side!"
I laughed. "I wanted to meet her and talk to her."
"I think Steven knows where she is. He took care of ruining her," he said, chuckling
"Steven?" This was another shocker. "What
were you guys up to?" she asked, her eyes wide
"Umm... this and that," he smiled. "We kept ourselves busy just to make sure that you are fine. Steven took care of Willow because she was threatening him that she would go to the media about your disappearance." Drexel pursed his lips, not wanting to speak further
"What did Steven do to her, Drexel?" I asked, curious. Damn, that woman was just too much
Drexel took a deep breath in. "He offered her money to get lost in the world. She became greedier and asked for more. Like she asked for a million dollars. While that was nothing for Steven, but he hated how greedy she was
becoming. He offered her money out of his kindness, but she took advantage of his kindness. Steven was extremely angry. He just picked her up from the human world, brought her to his pack and then-" Drexel burst out laughing
"Whaaat?" I asked him, poking his chest. "Tell me!"
"And then he threw her in his dungeons!" Drexel laughed all the more
"Oh damn!" I was shocked. I didn't know that side of my brother. "So Willow is now rotting in the dungeons of the Gold Crest pack?"
"Yes!" Drexel nodded with a wide smile. "Isn't
that fun?"
I bit my bottom lip. "I would like to meet her..." I said
Drexel became quiet. "Why Penelope? She is not worth it."
"I want to have my... closure."
He stared at me for a few moments. Then he gathered me in his arms and nodded. "Once we have our pups and they are big enough to be moved around, I will take you to meet her
Okay?"
"Okay..." I agreed with him. I didn't want to
meet Willow before my pups were born. My phone buzzed. It was Kimberley. She had given birth to quadruplets. And since then she has become extremely busy. She didn't have time to even talk to us and that was understandable. I really wanted to meet her and her pups. Though I couldn't meet them physically, we used to hold virtual meetings
Gods, Steven looked so proud holding his three boys and a girl. It was as if he had created his own army. His boys looked like their mom, but it was his daughter who had all his features
Steven was always at the receiving end of
Kimberley's mood, but he always smiled and kissed her
"Kimberley!" I said excitedly. "How are you?"
My sister-in-law grunted. "I have become a milk producing machine. There is one pup latched onto my nipples every moment."
I laughed as I caressed my tummy
"How are you?" she asked. "T believe they are about to pop up any minute!"
"Yes! In a week." However, as soon as I said that, something happened. "I'll be right back, Kim!" I said and disconnected the phone. I got up feeling like peeing, when a lot of water came out of me. "Drexel!" I rasped
He shot a nervous look at me. "Baby, your water bag broke!"
Our pups wanted to come out a week earlier than their due date
