♦ Blue Moon Park♦

Reyna watched her sister strolled with careful steps, she was ever so graceful in her way of walking and as she got closer Reyna perceived another scent from her apart from the usual smell of roses.

This time a soft scent of lilac was combined. Reyna knew at once that her sister was pregnant.

"Good afternoon Luna Rachel". Reyna greeted politely knowing fully well that she was going to get an earful of scolding for that.

Her sister scowled at her and sighed.

"You know how much I hate it when you sound so formal as if we're strangers".

"I'm following the rules and if I, the beta of this pack don't show a good example how do you expect the others to show you respect?". Reyna replied in her defence.

"I know, but We're sisters for goodness sake!".

"Luna or not, we're sisters okay?". Rachel added with a smile.

"Alright Luna -, Rachel". Reyna corrected her self quickly.

"Whatever, so how did the peace treaty with the blood moon pack go?" Rachel asked anxiously.

"It went well and fortunately the alpha of the pack was understanding".

"I see... Rachel replied in a drawl.

"So did you find your mate?". She asked.

"Unfortunately no but I'm still hoping to". Reyna replied running her fingers through her hair.

She does that when she was anxious or agitated.

Not wanting to address the issue at hand she decided to bring up another topic for them to discuss.

"Enough about me sister why don't we talk about you instead?". Reyna asked.

"What's there to talk about me?".

"Are you seriously not going to tell me the Great news?".

"What great news?".

"Oh please stop playing dumb sister!, Or do you think I don't know that you are pregna - mm". Reyna's remaining words were muffled by her sister's hands.

"What was that for?" Reyna asked after removing her sister's hand covering her mouth.

"This is supposed to be kept a secret 'cause I want to surprise my mate with it, so don't ruin the surprise okay?". Rachel pleaded.

"Okay I've heard you and I won't breath a word of it I promise".

"That's a relief, so- "

"There you are!". A voice interrupted her and soon after Alpha Damien walked up to them with a relieved look on his face.

I've been searching every where for you, where were you?". He asked enveloping Rachel his mate in a hug.

"I was right here with my sister sweetheart you worrisome alpha". Rachel replied smiling at him".

"Good afternoon Alpha". Reyna greeted politely.

"Hello Reyna and how did the peace treaty with the blood moon pack go?"

"It went well Alpha".

"Um, Rachel why do you smell different Today?". He asked turning to Rachel.

"How so?".

"I thought my noses when deceiving me when I noticed the change in your scent before but now the scent is more pronounced and it's like the scent of lilacs".

"Well your noses are right because I just used a lilac scented oil on my hair".

"Really?, But-"

"Can we discuss this later sweetheart?, 'cause I'm sure you have some very important duties to attend to".

"Nothing is more important than you my love".

"I know but can we discuss this later please?".

"Alright, if you insist". Alpha Damien replied giving Rachel a quick kiss before leaving".

Reyna stared at her sister in disbelieve, she thought Rachel was about to tell her mate about the 'great news' of her pregnancy but instead she created a good excuse about the change in her scent.

'Now I am having second thoughts about telling him the news'. Rachel privately mind linked Reyna.

'Why?'. Reyna questioned.

'You see the way he's acting overprotective like I'm some fragile flower even when I haven't told him about my pregnancy, just imagine what he might do if I tell him'.

'well he might become extremely overprotective,he won't let you do anything that tends to be stressful, and he might place guards around you with an excuse of protecting you and your unborn child'. Reyna replied.

"Just what I dread". Rachel said with sigh.

"Poor you, but don't worry you will survive it". Reyna remarked trying hard not to laugh.
