章節 129: Chapter 2.50
"He's an Omega," Zara stated, "just like Iris." She glanced to Chase, "and Chase also, it seems."
"So Will is their mom and dad?"
Ashley huffed as she crossed her arms, "we told you our dad's name is Jayden."
I ignored the glances of all the adults, "Wren," I began and everyone seemed to listen in. "Boy Omegas are special and can give birth to kids. So, my kids have to boys as their parents and call me Momma. I hope this doesn't make you uncomfortable."
Wren shook her head, "it's just weird." She mumbled, "so is their dad coming too?"
The twins glanced to me and I fought not to tremble, "we're not sure yet." I met the sorrowful gaze of Zara with a sad smile, "he is very busy with his job."
"Well!" Trey suddenly boomed happily, "why don't you girls take everyone around to see the place? Zara and I need to talk to Will about boring adult stuff."
Chase launched to his feet with enthusiasm, "yeah, I'm excited to see everything!"
Emit stood, "is there somewhere Addie could rest?"
Zara nodded before gesturing for me to follow her and I kissed the twins, Chase, and Emit before taking Addie out of his arms. I rubbed her back as I carried her and hummed quietly to her. As I followed Zara, I noticed Trey following and became nervous.
I was led into a bedroom that had a crib to the side of it. I gently placed Addie in it before leaning over the side and continued humming a song to her until she fell asleep. Zara led me to an adjoining room with Trey following. We sat down at a small wooden table with 4 chairs on every side of its square shape. I was relieved when Zara sat next to me and Trey sat across from me.
Zara's face was soft and sad, "Elijah filled me in a bit to what happened this morning."
I nodded, "I figured by the way you look at me."
"He said you need stitches."
Trey whipped his head to look at Zara, "stitches? What the hell happened? Why wasn't I informed?"
Zara glared at him, "Elijah didn't even want to tell me, but he knew Will wouldn't. It's not my right to tell."
I averted his gaze, "I promise you, Will, that I am an ally to you and your family. Please, I want to stay informed so I can help you."
I placed my arms on the table and pulled up the sleeves. They both sat and stared in horror, "I was attacked by my mate, the kid's father."
"Holy shit."
I tilted my head forward, "here's where I might need stitches."
"Can we look?" Zara asked and I nodded. They both came behind me and I fought not to freak out. She gently took off the bandage and I heard them both catch their breath. "Oh my god."
"We should get you to a hospital."
I took the bandage and put it back in place before looking to them. I gently shook my head with a smile, "I don't want to worry my kids." I gripped my sleeves in my fists, "they're already going to have to deal with a lot soon."
"I'm sorry about Wren."
"Don't be," I insisted as they both sat down and I looked to Trey. "We're used to it."
"Elijah said you were strong, but he didn't give you enough credit," Trey said with a smile. "We worked with him to try to put anything you may need in your rooms, since you're sort of starting over."
I nodded and looked to my lap, "I've started over a few times, but never with other people, let alone my kids. To get them into schools and talk to them about difficult things, it's a lot."
Zara put her hand on mine, "you're not alone this time. We're here to help and consider you family."
"Momma!" Archer said quietly as he rushed into the room and barreled into my lap, "they have cats AND a dog!"
I smiled before brushing some pet hair off his shirt, "wow, that's great! Did you have fun looking around?"
He nodded excitedly, "yeah! But Wren was being bossy."
Zara sighed, "sorry, she's not used to being around other kids and tends to boss them around whenever she's near them."
Archer shrugged, "its okay." He looked to me and leaned onto my chest, "can we call dad?"
I gulped before patting his head, "not right now. He has a really busy day coming up, so he probably can't talk."
Archer nodded sadly, "okay."
"Archer," Zara said kindly, "do you want to see the room you and Ashley are going to stay in?" He hopped up off me and nodded happily. Zara led him out of the room and I heard Ashley join him.
I glanced to Trey, "I don't mean to be rude," I began as he looked back to me. "Why are you, an Alpha, helping me?"
He sighed, "I'm like minded with Elijah. I don't agree with the social hierarchy. My mother and younger sister were Omegas and we were raised just by our mom. We don't even know our Alpha father. Well, Zara kind of filled the role of a second parent and helped raise me." He took a moment and dropped his gaze, "When our mom and younger sister passed away, Zara and I chose to move in together to raise our sister's kids."
"Iris and Wren?"
He nodded, "they came to live here when Wren was just a year old and Iris was 9."
"Iris is an Omega?"
He nodded, "Wren is a Beta, just like Zara. Our older brother and I are the only Alphas."
"I see."
"Our brother should be coming over tomorrow to meet you."
"Meet me?"
He nodded and returned to meet my gaze, "he's the one trying to create a cure for destined partnerships." He scratched his head, "our mom and father were destined partners and she suffered her entire adult life because of it. Our brother also has a destined partner."
"Its incredible that your mom and brother have destined partners."
He looked to me with confusion, "destined partnerships can be inherited, kind of like a genetic heredity."
My heart stopped as I felt sick. I could've passed this curse onto the kids?
"But it's not a high chance and can only pass to Alpha and Omega children. So don't stress."
