Spook is fucking blushing; I know that he’s attracted to me.
“Please, get me a water bottle,” I say, smiling at him.
Spook nods, turns, and walks down the bar to grab me the water bottle from the refrigerator. He returns, placing the water bottle in front of me.
“Here you go,” Spook says.
“Thanks,” I say, taking the water bottle.
I look at War talking to his Old Lady Poison. She’s Fiend’s sister, and I wonder if she knows.
Technically, War is only my brother, not my Dad.
So, what the fuck.
But he is the Prez, what he says goes.
After a few minutes, War turns around, smiling at me.
“Well, Princess, how are you today,” War asks, taking a pull of his beer.
“Could you send Prospect to do something else,” I ask, looking at him.
“Prospect, go wash the bikes,” War says.
Prospect nods and walks away. I take a drink of water and place the water bottle on the countertop.
“Princess, what’s up?” War asks.
“I’m pregnant,” I say in a low tone, leaning in closer to my brother, the Prez.
I look at War choke on the beer that he’s drinking, slamming the beer bottle on the bar countertop, pushing off the stool.
Well hell!
He was asking what’s wrong with me all fucking week.
“What did you say,” War asks, glaring at me, resting his hands on his hips.
“I’m pregnant,” I whisper, feeling the fucking heat spread through my face.
This is fucking embarrassing.
What’s the big deal?
He can calm the fuck down.
It’s not like I’m a child.
He’s going to drop dead when he learns that Wynter is pregnant.
I can’t wait to see this.
That’s going to be epic!
Surprise.
Fuckintastic!
