SWNOVELS The Lycan’s Rejected Mate: His Lycan Luna: Chapter 81
Rosa’s POV
‘So we were talking about baby names,’
‘Have you thought of any?’
‘Nah, I’ll let you pick,’ I say
‘I’ll be honored-‘ I cut him before he finishes
‘No, strictly no junior!’ I say sternly and he chuckles and fakes offense,
‘Why? I’m such a good guy!’
‘We don’t want another Jacob, dude, what if my son ends up with your attitude,’ I laugh, I’d love it if my son took after his father; His grace and mannerism are something to behold but I don’t want to tell him that and boost his already high ego.
‘Well, I don’t know but the girl is definitely, Rosario and you’re not changing my mind,’ He is determined and I smile as happy tears escape my eyes, fuck I hate crying.
‘Thank you,’ I sniff. He smiles and nods to me. My mind takes me back to when I first saw him at that club, he was imposing and exuding an aura like no other. I remember just wanting to touch him, I begged my boss to assign me to serve on his table but the bitch refused, so with a few beers and vodka, I approached the infamous Jacob Jones. He took a liking to me and asked me to join him for a drink. We had quite a lot and now, voila!
I extend my hand to him and he takes it.
‘If I don’t make it, promise me that you’ll take good care of them,’ I don’t even have to ask that because I know he will, he’s a responsible man and has proved how much he wants this family.
‘I promise you, Rosario, I’ll love and protect him and I want to make one more promise,’
‘What is it,’
‘That they’ll always remember you, I’ll them your pictures and tell them how much you love them,’ I’m crying for good now and he wipes away my tears.
‘But- But I don’t want them to be sad that I’m dead that’s why I was thinking they don’t know me at all,’ He shakes his head negatively
‘They won’t be sad, I want them to know you, Rosa,’ He stays quiet for a long time before he speaks again
‘Did I ever tell thank you?’
I chuckle bitterly and nod.
‘You’ve shown me how thankful you are that I’m carrying your babies. You know, no one in my life since my parents abandoned has shown me the kindness you have, Alpha Jacob,’ I tell him. He squeezes my hand, surprised that I’ve brought up my family, it’s a topic I don’t touch because it hurts me to talk about.
‘Tell me about your family,’
I smile as images of my once perfect and happy family come to my mind. We were once so happy until my father developed a gambling addiction. My father borrowed a lot of money from a loan shark mafia and he felt to pay it back.
‘Things went downhill so fast from there, we were evicted from our family house and my parents deserted us,’
‘Us? Who’s us?’ He questions with a raised eyebrow.
‘My brother Reece,’
‘What? You have a brother?’ He asks shocked.
‘Yes, he’s in Sweden, boarding school,’ I inform him. He opens his mouth to say something but closes it again.
‘He’s fifteen and I worked three jobs to support him,’ I inform him, and he seems surprised. He asks more about Reece and I tell him everything, how I was forced to send him away to keep him safe from the load sharks that wanted him as payment for my father’s debt.
‘I used to visit him back then but now, it’s quite difficult,’
‘Do you talk to him,’
‘Yes, he’s thriving there honestly and I don’t want to bring him back,’ I croak, on the verge of tears. Damn, fucking hormones.
‘But you’re poor, how are you able to support him in an expensive boarding school,’ He asks, baffled. Classic Jacob, see why I don’t want to name my child after him. I laugh and dig my claws into his skin.
‘He’s on a scholarship. Reece runs track and he’s the best plus I have some savings,’
I inform him. He smiles and nods.
‘Give me his school details,’ He says, I narrow my gaze.
‘Why?’
‘I just want him to know that he can count on me too for support and always know that he has someone in his corner,’ I was overwhelmed by his kindness and I didn’t want to burden him but indeed, my brother needs to know that he’s not alone in the world when I go to be with the moon goddess.
I do as he asks and transfers funds into his account which I’m grateful for, my phone rings and I smile to see it’s Reece, he wants to know about the money he received in his account.
‘Hello,’ I answer.
‘Yo, sis, something crazy happened,’ He says.
‘I know. Remember how I told you that I’m having babies for this rich guy? ‘ I look at Jacob and he’s proud, nodding his head.
‘He got your details,’
‘Wow, I’ll use it wisely, please say thank you for me,’
‘He’s hearing you as we speak,’
‘You are welcome and we can’t wait to have you over,’ Jacob hollers to my brother.
‘Okay man,’ However, Reece can’t come here because of the loan shark.
‘Is that guy you were walking for at the club the loan shark?’ He asks, his expression darkening. I slowly nod and he gets up.
‘I’ll handle Muzo, he’s been wanting to get in my good graces lately for his business, don’t worry about anything. After today, no one will be on your back,’
‘Thank you, Jacob,’
‘You’re my family, you know that,’ He says and I smile.
‘You’re my family too,’ With that, he leaves my bedroom and I sigh, feeling better I turn on the Tv to watch Netflix.
