Rose Bailey: My Mate, My Flower Chapter 296

Ebony's POV

Six Month's Later

Keith and I stood in the back while Alissa cried by her mother's coffin. The Doctors said Alice had lost all brain function, so Alissa and Jacob decided to take her off life support. I felt terrible for Alissa because not that many came to her funeral. Most from the Bloodmoon Pack came to my mom's even though they didn't like her. Many Werewolves saw Alice as a terrible Queen, and I knew that was why they didn't show, but I still felt awful for Alissa. Once the casket was lowered, Jacob, Keith, Alissa, and I left. 

"How are you feeling," I asked Alissa. We decided to go out to eat after the funeral. I could see she was feeling sad. I had told Jacob and Keith to go inside the restaurant so I could speak to Alissa alone.

"I am fine. I just am sad my mom is gone. I know she wasn't the best person in the world, but she was my mom," Alissa said

"Trust me, if anyone understands what you are saying, it's me. We both didn't have the best moms in the world," I said

"I will be fine. I knew this day was coming. It will take some time," Alissa said, and I nodded.

"You ready to go inside?" I asked

"Yeah."

Two Years Later

"Are you okay, My Love?" Keith asked as I threw up everything that was in my stomach. 

"Don't come in here," I said as Keith opened the door. 

"Ebony, this is the third morning I have seen you like this," Keith said, holding my hair as I leaned over the toilet. 

"I know," I said as I got up, flushed the toilet, went to the sink, washed my hands, and brushed my teeth. 

"I think we need to go to the Pack Doctor to see what's going on," Keith said

"Okay, after school, we will go," I said

"I would feel better if we went before you go to school. It would calm my wolf and me," Keith said.

 I knew Keith had been worrying about me. He thought I had some stomach flu or something, but I had a feeling it was something else, and I didn't know how he woudl take it if he knew I thought I was pregnant. We had said we wanted pups, but not until I was done with High School. We were also really busy running the werewolf community. 

We had made a lot of progress in the werewolf community, making things better, but some still believed in the old ways Alica and my father ran things. Mostly the older werewolves of higher ranks didn't feel omegas, humans, and witches should be treated as equals. 

Some humans and Witches were mated to werewolves; back in the day, they weren't treated fairly. That is why most would reject or move away with their mate if they were human or witches. I felt it was essential to treat humans and witches with respect as long as they were good. 

"Fine."

"I will call the doctor while you get ready," Keith said. He kissed my forehead before walking out of the bathroom.

"Congratulations, King Keith and Queen Ebony. You are pregnant." Keith looked at the Doctor with a shocked expression.

"Did you say she is pregnant?" Keith asked

"Yes, the two of you are having a baby." Keith's expression didn't change, and he was quiet. I was starting to worry that he was upset. "I will give the two of you some privacy," she said and walked out of the room. Keith was still silent, staring into space. It was like he was in shock or something. 

"Keith, are you okay? I am sorry if you didn't want this so early. I know I am in my final year of high school, and we have been very busy." Keith placed his hands in mine, causing me to look at him.

"I am not upset bout you being pregnant, My Love. I am happy and shocked. You being pregnant never crossed my mind. I was worried you were sick, and now I am relieved," KEith said 

"So, you are not mad?' I asked

"No. I am excited you are pregnant. I am going to be a daddy," Keith said and wrapped his arms around me, pulling me into his lap. He kept peppering kisses on my face causing me to laugh. "Thank you so much, My Love. I am going to be a father. I can't wait to tell everyone."

Four Months Later

"I call Valedictorian Queen Ebony Daniels Monroe to the stand." the principal said. It was Graduation day, and I had become Valedictorian. I had worked so hard all four years of high school.

Everyone clapped as I walked up to the stage to say my speech.

"Hello, class of 2020, we have made it, ahh," I said. Suddenly I saw a gush of water and knew my water had broke. Keith ran up to the stage, looking at me worriedly.

"Are you okay?" Keith asked

"The baby is coming. We need to get to the hospital now," I said

"There you go, Queen Ebony. You are almost there." I pushed one more time, and then I heard my baby cry. 

"It's a boy," The Doctor said and placed my son on my chest. "Would you like to cut the umbilical cord, King Keith?" Keith took the scissors and cut the cord. 

"You want to hold your son?' I asked 

"Yes, please," Keith said. He took our son and held him close. "I love you. I love both of you," Keith said, looking me in the eye.

"I love you too."

**************************

"Why didn't you tell me you were the Queen of Werewolves?" Rose, Derek's Mate, asked. Derek, Kate, Kayla, and Rose were visiting Keith and me in the hospital. 

"Because I was told by a witch that I couldn't interfere or you would lose. I am sorry I kept that from you," I said

"It's alright. I knew you had to have had a good reason not to say anything. So do I call you Queen Ebony now?" Rose asked

"No. We are family. You don't have to call me Queen." They left after about an hour, leaving Keith and me with our son.

"Thank you," Keith said, and I looked at him, confused.

"For what?' I asked

"For giving me a chance after everything I had done to you. I didn't deserve a chance with you, but you still gave me one. Without you, I would be nothing," Keith said

"You deserved a chance, and you proved it to me daily. I love you so much and can't imagine my life without you," I said. Keith kissed me softly, and I couldn't help but laugh.

"What's so funny?" Keith asked

"I was just thinking if you had told me three years ago that you and I would be Mates, I would never have believed you. I would never have believed that I would have an amazing life as I do now"

"Well, believe it because it is real," Keith said and kissed me softly.

"I love you," I said

"I love you too," I replied

It is crazy how amazing my life became the night I became My Bully's Mate.
