Chapter Ninety One
Nina’s POV
“I want you back Nina”
“I love you”
“Give us a second chance”
“I miss you Nina”
These were the things I was expecting to see from Alpha Aiden’s message but instead I saw this and Hazel read it aloud over and over again.
Nina, Doctor Ambrose who is Eros' father , is your biological father. Be careful out there.
That was it and nothing else. We checked through all the messages in the email but there is not a single one from Alpha Aiden which made me a little bit disappointed but shocked at the news of my fathers identity.
“Oh my goodness,Eros is your brother, step brother or I don’t know but you and Eros seems to share your fathers blood” said Hazel
“No, you don’t expect me to believe something like this without evidence and prove” I said
“What should we do ? Should we call you mother and let her know ?” Suggested Hazel
“Yes but we need to call Eros to come down to the house , we will tell him and get his blood sample with his consent for the DNA test. I wonder why mother will hide this from me ? Didn’t she know Eros or was she just playing dumb ?” I asked myself but Hazel was already on the phone calling Eros.
“Get your cute fine ass over to Nina’s house Eros and I mean like right now, this is a life and death case” she said before hanging up . The room arrangement was all forgotten as we stared at each other without saying a word.
“I will get the door, “ said Hazel when she received a message on her phone from Eros telling her that he had arrived 15 minutes later.
“I will go get mother” I said as we both headed downstairs to the living room. I didn’t even go to my mother's room because I was feeling all tired. I decided to text her to meet us in the living room with immediate effect.
“What’s wrong , you called and said that there's an emergency. Is the baby due ?” Asked Eros breathing hard , looking all concerned and I shook my head
“I am fine and my baby is doing fine but how could you hide such a secret from me Eros ? I thought we were friends ?” I said and the guilty look on his face gave him away
“Nina, I am so sorry. I didn’t mean to keep it away from you .” He said scratching his head
“Well speak ,spill it” I said and everyone’s eyes turned to Eros as we all waited for him to speak up.
“Shortly after you left for South Korea,Alpha Aiden called to make some changes and amendments to the hospital project. He changed the name and legal documents of ownership from ‘Nina Hospital’ to ‘Silvermoon Pack Hospital’. The opening ceremony is going to take place tomorrow ...I am so sorry Nina, I didn’t tell you because I don’t want to hurt you and the baby since you and Alpha Aiden are no more mates and I feel it’s an unnecessary information” he said and it did hurt me.
Aiden must be really over me for him to be petty and go to the extent of taking back a gift which he gave me. I felt hurt but my heart is already used to the numb feeling and this is not the secret I was hoping to hear from Eros.
“That’s not the secret I meant even though what you told me just now hurts a little bit “ I said sighing and turning to look at Selene who looks calm and collected as usual ,sometimes I feel like her presence doesn’t make much difference to me especially when she hardly show her emotions but what do I expect from a moon goddess?
“Mother , is Dr Ambrose my father and is Eros my step brother?” I asked her directly looking into her eyes
“Yes, he is your father and Eros is your step brother “ she said without batting an eye
“Then why are you sitting down there with no reaction ? Why didn’t you tell me ? What if I ended up dating Eros huh ?’l shouted and I hated it because I don’t want to shout over my baby but I’m very angry and I feel like my heart is boiling.
I had a quiet 8 months and all of a sudden when my baby is in its 9th month, different stories and drama are beginning to arise.
“Because I am trying to protect you Nina, besides you have me and you don’t need your father” she said making me stop my jaw
“What makes you think that I don’t need my father huh ?’l asked
“Excuse me, I am a little bit confused here. Who are you to my father ? He is a respectable man and I never knew him with another family , nobody ever mentioned a sister to me “ said Eros looking as shocked and as confused as I am
“ Please be honest with me Eros , you never knew about this ?” I asked him and he shakes his head
“No, infact , I think we should have a DNA test because we look nothing alike “ said Eros , Hazel and the manager kept staring at our trio without saying a single word, the atmosphere was really charged with intense emotions.
“You don’t need to have any DNA test , Dr Ambrose is your father Nina even though you don’t look like Eros. You still look like his father whom I don’t want to do anything with” said mother crossing her arms
“Does he know about my mother ? Does he know that he has a daughter ?!” I asked my mother and the way she threw her face to the side already told the answers to my question.
“No, he moved on and married Eros mother so why should I tell him about my child huh ?” Said mother sounded heart broken and it’s so obvious that she is still not over him and I feel bad for her but that’s not enough reason for her to stop me from meeting my father.
“But mother, I have no issues with what’s going on between you two . I am Innocent and shouldn’t suffer from the crimes I did not commit , yeah ?! “ I said stubbornly
“ Look who is talking. Did you tell Aiden about your baby huhh ? “ asked mother and i immediately went mute because I understand the angle she is attacking me from.
“But this is different and you said that you will always support my decision” I said hating the way my head aches
“Well Nina, now that you know who your father is . Are you happy ?” Asked mother but I didn’t answer her, I turn around to face Eros
“Please call your father , he needs to know and we need to hear his own side of the story “ I said while holding my head.
“Nina, don’t stress too much. Please sit down for the baby’s sake and this is all good. Turns out we are going to be a great big unusual family “ said Hazel with a weird small laugh.
“And one more important question, do you have band ideas for your baby ?” Said Hazel when she helped me to sit down on the sofa
“Hazel stop. I know you’re trying to ease the tension but I’m not going to let anything slide this time around. I need complete answers and I am going to get them “ I said looking directly at my mother who was also looking back at me with an annoying calm demoure.
Eros is already on the phone talking with his father I assume , because he kept talking so much and he was pacing up and down.
“Father is on his way down here even though he might take some time ” said Eros after ending the phone call
“Good, now we wait ''I said as we all sat down in the living room waiting for Dr Ambrose who seemed to be taking a lot of time to come because dinner time came and nobody ate anything from the dinner served by the staff.
My head was aching so much that I decided to take a nap on the three seater sofa but a sharp pain and then the feeling of my clothes getting all soaked and wet woke me up.
“Oh my goodness “ I whispered when I opened my eyes and looked down at the wet area around my clothes. I looked around to see Hazel snuggled in Eros arms , Mother and the manager were not around and the clock showed 6:46 AM .
I must have taken more than a nap ,it’s obvious that Dr Ambrose hasn’t arrived yet since no one woke me up.
I took deep breaths , in and out and tried to stand up when I felt another sharp pain in my waist that I had to shout.
“Arghhhh Ouch!” I shouted which startled Eros and Hazel as they both woke up,
“What’s wrong Nina?” Asked Hazel with sleepy eyes
“Oh shit, I will get the cars ready. Go call your mother and her mother right now !” Shouted Eros when he sighted the fluid on my clothes.
“It hurts so much Hazel,” I said, closing my eyes and clenching my knuckles, hoping that it would stop me from shouting out loud.
“Is the baby coming already ?” Asked Hazel , her eyes now clear
“It’s supposed to be in a week's time , I think I need to see a doctor, Hazel!” I shouted when another wave of the unbearable ache hits my abdominal core
“Mother! Mother !” Shouted Hazel slipping and falling down on her way up but she still stood up as if nothing happened , her shout for help masked my own cry for help.
“Please be okay Baby, please be okay baby, please be safe and healthy for mama “ I kept panting and whispering as I wrapped my hands around my stomach.
“Get her labour bag that had all the delivery kings and items in it and also a big towel!” Shouted My manager to Hazel who keeps nodding her head frantically.
“Nina , it’s going to be okay. Be strong” mother kept whispering to my ears as mother wrapped her hands around me and tried to help me to stand but that seemed to make the pain more intense.
“Arghhh!” I shouted again ,closing my eyes and trying too calm my ragged breathing,
“Mother, I’m not due till next week .I don’t know what’s happening. I feel so much pain and construction around my abdominal walls!” I managed to tell my mother amidst whimpers
“It’s alright baby, I love you and I will not allow anything to happen to you and my grand baby. Be strong , you will be fine, “ said my mother as she cleaned off the sweat on my face while her manager picked me up and gently led me to the car in which Eros was already in the driver seat.
“Hang in there Nina, you have got this !” Said Eros before he started driving and stopped when we heard Hazeks shouts .
“Wait for me ! I have the bags !” She said as she entered the front seat and slammed the door loudly.Mother and manager were sitting besides me and despite how funny and chaotic the scene may seem , I feel a lot safer in their company even though my body feels like it’s tearing into pieces.
“Drive faster ! She is in pain damn it!” Shouted Eros when she turned back and took a look at me
“I need to drive carefully Nina, for her and the babies safety” replied Eros
“Then drive faster but be careful!” Shouted Hazel who seemed really distressed.
“I will put on some music for us “ said Eros as if it will magically take the pain away.
The pain kept getting intensified and held on to the two mother hands beside me hoping that we would get to the hospital soon.
