Arthur was stunned when he entered his sister's apartment and saw how the room was for the baby, that his brother-in-law prepared. While there was a crib for when the egg hatched, it was set aside in a corner to make room for the nest on the diaper changing table in the middle of the room.
The base where the egg rested was a cushion of red duvet and thermal fabrics, surrounded by jewels, gold coins and precious gems that fell to the floor. From the ceiling hung diamonds on gold chains mixed with sun catchers of various shapes and colors. Not satisfied with that, Ross gave him several wind spinners that he brought from China, on the recommendation of the dragon that lived near Yoshi to cheer up the baby.
More than a nest for the baby, it looked like the lair of a very greedy dragon that loved colorful and bright things. He swallowed hard when he realized that his sister was following the same line as Brad, in matters of decorations around the house. From paintings to furniture and utensils, everything was top-notch and at an exorbitant cost.
-Who did they steal all of this from? -
-Mmm..Antares took them to loot the three vaults of the allied countries, two museums and several stores in New York and Hong Kong..oh! The toys no, those were gifts from Yoshi for the baby- Rigel was not ashamed to answer his brother-in-law
-Everything that is in the kitchen, we stole it from Shuto's imperial palace, just because they were made by hand and were made of silver with dragon decorations- Sonia did not deny her misdeeds either
He clearly was dealing with a pair of shameless and unscrupulous thieves who gave a lot of envy.
-I got these bluetooth speakers at Wal-mart to play music for Bethel. Hey Rigel, Brad prepared a playlist for the baby, put it that way, she listen to it- Sonia looked at him plaintively to get what she wanted
Rigel could not refuse anything that his wife asked and he attached his cell phone to give her the pleasure. Doris Day's "Que sera, sera" began to play, causing Sonia to start singing and snuggle the egg in her arms.
Arthur saw the happiness that his future niece generated in his sister, so much so that he began to sing to accompany her. Rigel did not stay behind and hugged Sonia and Betel. In the most amusing moment, the black shell began to glow fluorescent colors and then fade.
-What was that? Rigel what happens to Bethel? - Sonia's nerves invaded
-Is just very happy to hear your voice, now she fell asleep. Don't worry, you'll get used to it. Leaves Bethel in the nest and go to rest. Bringing her was difficult for you- Rigel took her in his arms and carried her to the bedroom
-Hey, do me another favor, prepare something to eat to watch football while my girls rest-
Arthur went into the kitchen, heated up the pizzas, and brought out the beers. Rigel sat down and started drinking to chat with him.
-Let's toast to Bethel, which arrived safely with spring, and to my beloved Scuti, who is more beautiful than ever because of the girl. Cheers!-
-I offer because everything continues well until next year, and that it is what it has to be. Cheers!-
They looked at their beer cans with the sound of the television in the background, thinking that everything was going relatively well.
-Did you make your decision or are you waiting for something? - Rigel cut off Arthur's good spirits
-I choose to be free with you. I will go to the trial and ask to join the family, should I bring something? -
-Not that I know. They are only going to give a lesson to bastard Vichio, they will announce the new leaders with the odd novelty and hence a banquet-
-Well. Heh..you said you would stay the whole week? -
-All week. What a doubt is the one that causes your discomfort if you can tell- Misty climbed onto Rigel's lap to be caressed
-This won't end with the April battle, right? We are going to die-
-Yes and no. The cracks will pass to this world after the first attack to stay and as for the second, it is not contemplated, not yet-
They kept talking until Arthur fell asleep. Rigel looked at the empty space on the couch and his brother sat on it.
-Congratulations! It already arrived and what did you get this time? -Antares seemed tired
-A girl, Betelgeuse of Orionis. She has the power of her mother, she would almost say that she is a faithful copy of her, if not for her bad character-
-Uhh it sounds like you're mad at yourself- He make the mockery towards Rigel
-And you... who touched you, the other day I could already feel something.- Rigel threw a can to divert the subject
-Hehe for want of one, they gave me a combo and not just any one; they gave me to take care of Gemini-
-Bastard, they gave you the stars of Sir Iston, the master of god hahaha ... what the hell is the doorman thinking when he sent you to that pair- Rigel covered his eyes and laughed louder
-Enough, Siri got scared after that. Castor and Pollux are going to be a problem, they are very capricious, I hope they don't lose control-
-Well, good luck with that and thanks for coming to congratulate me but I think you should go, she is looking for you for sure-
-Yes, up to here I can hear her scream. It will be until the next visit brother- Antares said goodbye and returned with his wife
-I thought you were sleeping, do you want me to keep you company? - Rigel looked at Sonia standing in the kitchen
-So Eda is going to have twins? -
A smile broke out and Rigel approached, grabbed Sonia in his arms and carried her to the bed.
-I will tell you everything but you have to rest by my side. Today you had a difficult day-
-Done- Sonia snuggled into Rigel's arms to feel his warmth

The Next day...
In the office, Brad's presence was terrifying and they avoided approaching him. They believed that his defiant attitude was due to the absence of Sonia who had the day off to take care of her egg and because tomorrow would be the trial, today he was busier than ever to attend to anyone.
When he was ushering out of reception to leave, the Trudy brothers showed up to scold him. He just ignored them and went on his way.
-This is your fault. Talk to the council and ask them to stop the trial, maybe..you want to destroy our family- Yona demanding him and take him by the arm
-What the fuck are you doing, stupid girl, take out that filthy hand- Rigel was getting pissed off
The air turned cold and creepy. Yona shook him hand away, trembling. They panicked when they saw Rigel approach Collin.
-Curious, it seems that you also lost your balls or could it be that you realized that there is no battle to fight heh-
-Just talk to them, they'll listen to you. We do not want to lose our clan, think about our sick mother or do you want to see her dead? -
-Mother?! In this life I already lost mine thanks to yours, I don't know what mother you're talking about. For me they can die, disappearing from this world does not interest me- a disgusting smile on Rigel put him on alert
-Don't do this, we apologize for our mistake but ..- Laika froze when Rigel appeared in a blink in front of him
-You want the impossible. Do you want forgiveness? Well, bring my mother and grandmother back, give them back the stamp they stole and give them all the poisoned food they received from your family; to your parents and grandparents so that they die suffering like them, if you do, maybe I'll forgive them-
Rigel held Laika by the neck in the air to suffocate him while his brothers were terrified when they felt the power of an alpha appeasing their will to help Laika.
-Your insolence annoys me, so much so that tomorrow I'm going to give Vichio what he deserves and what they have been crying out for for years. Get ready ... hahahaha-
The Trudy brothers fled in terror when Rigel released Laika, not noticing that most of the dragons were watching them like Rigel swept the floor with them.
Now everyone had found out how Brad's mother died, and the reason of the outrageous hatred for the Trudys. The news would soon reach the ears of Helix and the other clans to end up causing a tsunami of fury.
