My Not Yet Mate

Chapter 106

Lily

She added an auburn color to Lukas‘ hair as she hummed to herself. Deborah leaned over to peer at her portrait. She smiled at Lily who eagerly returned the smile,

“You really love him, don’t you?,” Deborah linked Lily.

Lily added streaks of deep crimson to his hair as she nodded. Lily touched up Lucy’s blue eyes and added light to Lukas‘ green ones as he gazed down at her in his arms. She added more gold to the egg behind them in the middle of a lit fireplace, before dipping her brush into the silver yellow she was using for Lucy’s hair. Gemma suddenly surged forward, growling. The entire room went silent. Felix started walking towards her and she yanked the canvas off the easel to press it against Lily’s chest. She bared her teeth, snarling threateningly at him. Deborah grabbed his arm and forced him

backwards.

“Everybody out!” Nobody moved. “I SAID GET OUT! NOW!,” she roared. Everyone sprinted out of the room while Felix tried to pull away from Deborah. “Sorry, teach, she will rip your head off if you go near her. Right now only her mate should go near her.”

Gemma watched him give up and let Deborah lead him out. Gemma put the portrait back on the easel and howled with agony when it was smeared so bad that she couldn’t tell that it had been her family moments before. She picked it back up, before sinking to her knees with her arms around it, sobbing. The bell rang and she heard the principal sending people to a different room. A few minutes later Sasha walked in, but stopped when Gemma lifted Lily’s head to bare her teeth at her.

“Lily, what’s wrong?,” she asked softly.

Gemma gently put

“Lily?”

the

canvas beside her and stood up, still growling at Sasha, Sasha eyed her.

Gemma launched them at Sasha who ducked, making Lily fly

Lily fly over her head, only avoiding slamming into the wall by Gemma’s wings coming out to stop her. Gemma spun on Sasha and began to stalk her angrily across the room. Sasha stood her ground, seemingly relaxed as Lily approached her. Lily lunged at her and Sasha darted around her. Lily tumbled to the floor, rolled and jumped back to her feet. Sasha slammed the door shut behind her and Gemma relaxed.

She went back over to their ruined canvas and started crying all over again as she cradled it to her chest. Suddenly, Lily’s nose went into the air and she began to inhale deeply. Lukas. He was there. Her eyes watched the door eagerly. The door knob turned and Gemma tensed, growling lowly. The door was pushed open and Lukas stepped in, eyeing her cautiously.

“Lily? Can I come in?”

She jumped to her feet to dash over to him. She threw her arms around his neck and buried her face in his neck to inhale his scent. His arms went around her and he rubbed her back as he murmured soothingly to her. She sniffled and clung to him harder.

“Baby, I’m so sorry it took me so long to get here. I’m going to take you home, okay?”

She nodded, looking up at him anxiously. “What’s wrong with me?,” she whispered.

He started walking down the hall with her in his arms and Aiden and Sasha fell into step beside them. The speaker system beeped above them seconds before the principal’s voice told everyone to remain in their classrooms until they were released by her. The announcement renewed Lily’s sobs, knowing that it only was said, because she had freaked out. Lukas‘ arms tightened around her,

“It’s okay, Lily, I promise.”

Aiden patted her shoulder and she nipped at his hand. He pulled back grinning

“Sasha was the same way with Roselynn and Kalani with Emily. Congrats, Lukas, the egg she’s carrying will be the next king of kings. That’s why she’s 10 protective over it. Once she lays it, she’ll go back to being her sweet self.”

Lily sniffled and looked up at him with tear filled eyes. “Do you promise?”

He nodded. “Just, please, no more eggs until your

other ones hatch.

Lily flushed, before burying her face in Lukas shirt. Laikas got her situated in his car’s passenger seat, before climbing into the driver’s seat and taking her hand. He lifted her hand to kiss it.

“Does Gemma have any idea when you two will be laying our egg?”

“Today,” she yawned. “I’m so tired. We need to make a nest,”

Lily sighed as she settled back into her seat to nap. “She says today, but we are so tired and haven’t made a nest.”

He squeezed her hand. “Go to sleep, Lily, baby, I’ll start a nest for you and you can fix it when you wake up.”

“Like our last one?,” she asked hopefully,

He chuckled. “Just like last time, I promise.”

Lily’s body shook violently and pain shot through her body, jolting her awake. She let out a loud scream and seconds later, it lessened. She leaned over the edge of the bed and vomited all over the floor. She was lifted and fire was breathed over her.

“Come on, love, let’s go have our

our egg.

She clung to him. “I’m scared,” she whispered.

He kissed her forehead as he dropped over the edge of her balcony. “Just like riding a bike, baby. It won’t be any harder than last time.”

She raised her eyes to his. “Stay with me?”

He kissed her softly as he set her on the ground. “Always, my everything”

He paced back a few yards to shift. He came back to nuzzle her face, encouraging her to shift, too. She took a deep breath and let Gemma take over. After shifting, Gemma immediately laid on her side with her top leg slightly back. Gideon adjusted her position a little, before breathing fire over her. Her pain diminished again as he laid on the ground in front of her, almost making a slightly

weird L. He let his wing help her hold her leg up. He began to lick her like before and she began to push. He opened their link and let his love pour into her mind as their egg moved lower faster than the first Lime.

As soon

the egg was out, Gemma let Lily shift back. Gideon licked Lily clean, before doing the same to the egg. He gently pushed the egg into Lily’s lap, before shifting back. Lukas lifted Lily up into his arms, while she held the egg-

“Sweetheart, I think we need a break.”

She stiffened in his arms. “We’re married and marked, you don’t get a break,” she snapped.

He laughed as he lifted them back onto the balcony. “I meant from laying eggs. As much as I love seeing you grow with them, it is very rough on your body.” He lifted her to kiss her again. “You’re never getting a break from me, wife.”

She touched his cheek as he set her on the bed. “Good, because I kinda like you.”

He brushed her hair back. “And I kinda like you back.”

He took their new gold egg with swirls of emerald in it to the fireplace. He ignited a fire, before coming back to the bed to take her hand again.

“I’m sorry

rry about your ruined painting, baby. I have spoken to the school and they sent all of your work for a week. I also apologized to Felix and replaced all of the broken supplies. I also sent a clean up crew from Deegan to tidy up. Take your time to recover and when you go back to school, don’t let what happened make you feel bad. You are not the first student to go into a labor induced rage.”

She stared up at him. “You di

did all of that w

while I was asleep?”

He climbed into bed next to her to take her in his arms. “Yes, baby. I also brought our other egg and Lucy here.”

“In four months, I will graduate. I don’t want to wait that long to come home, Lukas. The day I get out of school, I am going to come home.”

He kissed her forehead. “Our home is already ready for you. You don’t even have to tell me. Just show up. Now, rest, my queen.””

She n

nuzzled into his side. “I can’t wait to tell everyone you’re my husband.”

He groaned. “Aja and Lani are going to kill me. It’s been nice knowing you.”

She giggled and playfully bit his shoulder. “I’ll make sure to tell our kids what a wonderful man you were for the entirety of your 23 years.

“Gee, thanks for that.” This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
