Her Forbidden Alpha

Chapter58　A Fine Luna

Shopping was draining, Angela was trying on countless dresses even when she wasn’t even keen on them. Monica and Scarlett even left her for a bit, Scarlett had seen Monica’s eyes on the baby section and had taken the chance to escape Angela’s painful criticism of every dress she donned.

“Shall we go take a look?” She asked Monica quietly.

“Umm no! No, I was just uh…” She tucked a braid behind her ear and looked at Scarlett who gave a small smile.

“Come on let’s go take a look.” She said leading the way. Monica followed with a smile on her face as they both began browsing the new-born section, Scarlett smiled seeing her look at the clothes, she herself looking at the racks of clothes in front of her. She had to admit, they were kind of cute. She wondered what kind of parents she and Elijah would make, just the thought of it made her smile. Would the baby have highlighted brown hair like Elijah or strawberry blonde like hers or a mix?

“Thinking about something?” Monica asked smiling, Scarlett quickly shook her head.

“No.” She said, her eyes falling a cute pale-yellow romper with black stripes that had the words ‘Daddy’s Favourite Baybee’ on the front. She smiled and picked it up. “I’m buying this.”

“Who for?” Monica asked confused, Scarlett raised an eyebrow.

“Only one of us is pregnant hun.” She said as if this was obvious. Monica fell silent as Scarlett picked up a matching hat and walked off to the counter. They had never been close; Scarlett had always been a feisty girl who hated Elijah with vengeance. Being Aarons mate didn’t help their relationship and Scarlett had ended up being a mystery with each passing year, but now seeing this side of her made Monica smile. She didn’t need to buy anything for their baby but here she was.

“Here, maybe give Aaron that instead of a card? Hopefully he’ll get the hint. I know men are dumb but this should get through to him.” She said holding the bag out to Monica, whose chocolate eyes were full of emotion.

“I don’t know what to say.” She said, Scarlett looked at the bag.

“If you don’t like it you can return or exchange it, I paid by cash anyway.” Scarlett said with a small smile. “And I don’t get offended so go ahead, I’ll meet you in the ladies section.”

Monica took the bag, looking at Scarlett who was already walking away.

“You’re going to make a fine Luna.” She said softly. Her voice was soft but it stopped Scarlett in her tracks, her heart racing. She had never thought of herself as Luna material, in fact, she didn’t think she was motherly… how a Luna was meant to be… It was something that often came up when she let her mind wander, wondering if she would do justice to Elijah as his Luna, but Monica’s words made her feel a glimmer of hope.

“Thanks.” Scarlett said softly, looking over her shoulder at the woman who hurried over to her. Both made their way back to Angela, a silent new understanding between them.

It was past 6 pm when the girls had finally finished shopping, Scarlett had found a dress that had instantly caught her attention and she knew it was the one. She instantly tried it on and it looked breath-taking however there were some adjustments needed so she had left it at the store. It would be ready to collect in 5 working days.
