Chapter 7 - Reckonings and Revelations

Cain's P.O.V

Shit! I did it again; she's not moving.

"That's what the little bitch deserves; she tried to run away from us, and she's pregnant," Lucifer spat.

"After hitting her like that, are you still wondering why she ran?" Gabriel asked rhetorically.

"No one asked for your input, so just stay quiet while I deal with my mate," Lucifer growled.

"She's my mate too," answered Gabriel.

"Both of you SHUT UP!" I growled at them.

"She's all three of ours' mate; we have to share whether we like it or not," I spat.

"Lucifer, you need to stop taking over when I'm angry or else we'll kill her. Do you understand?" I asked calmly.

He didn't respond, so I asked again.

"DO YOU UNDERSTAND?!" I growled at him.

"Don't try that with me, pup; we control you, not the other way around," he replied, then went to the back of my mind.

"It's about time you set him straight," Gabriel said.

"And now it's your turn. You can't get angry at every little thing she does. You are the one who has driven her to the point where she thinks she needs to escape," he said.

"No, it's Lucifer's fault," I retorted.

"NO, it is NOT. It is your fault for allowing him to take over when you're angry. In all truth, it's both your faults, and I'm going to have to fix it. Now, pick her up, and let's go; we've left Jace waiting in the lobby long enough," Gabriel said before retreating to the back of my mind to give Lucifer his earful.

Skylar's P.O.V

When I woke up, I was surprisingly very comfortable. I was in a bed, and it was... REALLY comfortable. I rolled to the other end of the bed, then back. I giggled at just how childish I was. Not long after, I went back to sleep.

When I woke again, other people were in the room, engaged in an aggressive conversation.

"Look at what you did to her; you have no right to get angry at her for running away," an unfamiliar female voice spat.

"It was Lucifer, not me," a male voice replied.

"That's not a valid excuse. Control yourself and your wolf; you are the alpha," said the female voice before leaving the room.

"I know you're awake, Skylar. Stop pretending to be asleep," said the male voice. Then it hit me; it was Cain. Just then, I remembered all the events from yesterday. My hand went to my tummy. "Please be alright," I prayed.

"Your baby is okay, though unusual, it's okay," Cain said.

A wave of relief went through me at him saying that. The next thing he asked made my blood boil; it angered me.

"Skylar, why did you cheat on me and get knocked up?" was the question he asked. It made me furious, and all fear of him was swept clean for the moment and replaced with anger.

"You asshole! After what happened that night, you accuse me of getting pregnant for someone else. Did you use protection?" I asked him, tears pricking at my eyes.

"I don't know," he replied.

"Well, I know. The answer is no. I have only had sex once in my life, and it was with you. So, guess what?",I chuckled and then continued ,"You're going to be a daddy,"

His reaction was one that that I never expected.

He started to laugh. Yup, he laughed right in my face. In the heat of the moment, I walked right up to him and slapped him hard across the cheeck. His laughter ceased almost immediately..

He pinned me to the wall, and glared at me, our faces so close that our noses were touched. His glare slowly became a look of lust, and another emotion that I couldn't believe was there—love.
