Page 114 of Her Cold-Hearted Alpha: Part 2

I looked at her, trust Raven to think of that. Alejandro simply gave her a death glare.

"Karma…." Raven whispered.

This time I frowned at her. Dad brows furrowed and I knew he clicked on to what she was hinting. I froze, realising that Rafael was right there, but luckily, he seemed lost in thought.

"Ok, what’s the good news? I hope it’s good because I sure need some." Mom said.

Dad smirked, I saw Mom give him a look and I knew he had mind linked her something I didn’t need to know!

"The good news." Alejandro smirked as my heart began thumping wildly.

Rafael smiled and I leaned into Alejandro, fearing Dad’s reaction.

"Relax… Amore Mio." He said now looking down at me, taking my chin in his fingers before he kissed me again.

I closed my eyes. There was something different about this kiss, it was deep, sensual, yet slow, but the sparks… goddess… I felt my core throb and sighed softly against his lips. He moved away after a moment and looked at Mom and Dad.

"Fuck. Let’s just say… congratulations, you’re going to be grandparents." He said, placing his free hand on my stomach, making my heart pound. It was the first time he allowed himself to let his hand linger there.

"What?!" Mom shrieked, sounding the girliest I've ever heard her sound. Raven gasped, her mouth dropped open, but Dad just sat there stunned. Mom was in front of me in a flash hugging me, forcing Alejandro to let go of me as she rocked me. "Oh, baby girl, What… how? How do you know so soon? Wait, is this from…?"

"Yeah…" I whispered, blushing lightly.

"Are you happy?" Mom asked, her excitement calming down as she looked at me worriedly.

I nodded and she cupped my face, kissing my forehead.

"Then I’m happy. The baby wasn’t the reason you two worked things out, was it?" She asked, slight worry filling her.

I shook my head firmly. No, it definitely was not.

"Perfect…" Mom said.

She turned to Alejandro, about to reach for his face, when he simply raised an eyebrow, and Mom quickly let her hands drop before smiling at both of us.

I almost laughed at their exchange. Although he was my mate, he was closer to Mom in age. Raven let out a whistle as Mom turned to Dad, who was sitting there, shocked.

"Oh, my goddess… mother of the moon… Lycan seedlings work without being marked! Oh wow, Kia’s been pregnant all this time!" Raven mumbled before she sprang up and rushed over to hug me, "My baby nephew or niece is here. You are going to look so cute with a pregnant belly! Oh my god, I can’t wait to go shopping for the baby!"

"I know…" I said, smiling at her, glad she was here for when we broke the news to Mom and Dad. I rested my cheek against hers, I truly missed not having her around.

"Elijah…" Rafael said as all eyes now turned to Dad, whose dark cobalt eyes were burning straight into Alejandro’s.

"I want to speak to him alone." He growled murderously.

"Dad…"

"Not. Now." He said.

"Elijah…"

"Scarlett. I said, not now."

I was about to speak when Alejandro ran his hand up my thigh.

"I can handle him, go." He said with a cold smirk on his face.

I frowned, looking between them.
