**Chapter 83**
**Elle’s POV**
As I stepped into the magnificent Rayne family estate, I was instantly enveloped by an atmosphere that felt both welcoming and enchanting. The kitchen, a dazzling display of culinary potential, was a sight to behold. Fresh ingredients lay before me, each one vibrant and inviting, as if beckoning me to create something magical for dinner. The vegetables sparkled with freshness, neatly arranged as if they were waiting for their moment to shine, while the meats—rich and fragrant—had been marinated to perfection, promising a feast that would linger in our memories.
A maid approached me, her expression a mix of excitement and secrecy as she helped me slip into a pair of soft house slippers. “Alpha instructed us to prepare everything for you, but he specifically said we should let you handle the cooking,” she whispered, her eyes glinting with a playful spark.
A rush of warmth flooded my cheeks as I realized that Brad had orchestrated this moment, wanting me to take the lead in the kitchen. I could almost feel his presence behind me, a solid and reassuring force that radiated both strength and patience. When I dared to glance back, I caught a glimpse of satisfaction dancing in his amber eyes—a look that made my heart race and filled me with a sense of purpose.
The kitchen soon transformed into my personal sanctuary, a realm where I could lose myself in the art of cooking. I washed my hands thoroughly, the cool water grounding me, before reaching for a knife. My movements were fluid and instinctive, honed from years of independence among humans. There was a confidence in my actions, a rhythm that felt natural as I began to create.
Brad leaned against the doorframe, his intense gaze following my every motion, and I could feel the tension in his shoulders easing as the rich aromas of the cooking food enveloped him. It was as if the essence of the meal was weaving a spell, drawing him closer to a state of relaxation.
I started with the main course—a protein-rich roasted meat that would serve as the centerpiece of our dinner. At the same time, I prepared a pan-seared steak, listening to the satisfying sizzle as the meat met the hot surface, filling the air with mouthwatering anticipation. The bone broth simmered gently on the stove, its comforting scent mingling with the vibrant vegetable salad I tossed together, a riot of colors that was a feast for the eyes.
In less than thirty minutes, the kitchen was alive with the warmth and comfort of a complete meal. While it may not have been the elaborate cuisine of werewolf culture, it was hearty, home-cooked goodness that wrapped around us like a cozy blanket.
“I’m done!” I announced triumphantly, wiping my hands on a dish towel as if to declare my victory to the world.
Brad’s eyes sparkled with delight as he surveyed the spread before him, a hint of surprise flickering across his features.
Seated across from him at the dinner table, I felt a rush of warmth fill my cheeks from the exertion of cooking. The flickering candlelight cast a soft glow, creating an intimacy that made me acutely aware of my own vulnerability, accentuating the uniqueness of my heterochromatic eyes.
He inhaled deeply, and I could sense a shift in his expression. “This smells… different. Better,” he remarked, his tone laced with genuine appreciation.
“I only know how to make simple food,” I confessed, suddenly feeling a wave of self-consciousness wash over me. “I hope it meets your expectations.”
Brad feigned a grimace, his playful nature surfacing. “I don’t typically indulge in such mild cuisine,” he replied, yet his fork was already diving into the meat with an unmistakable hunger.
“Your fork seems to have a mind of its own,” I teased, a smile creeping onto my lips, enjoying the lightness of our exchange.
To my surprise, he responded with a genuine smile, one that lit up his amber eyes. “My fork has terrible judgment,” he quipped, and I felt a warm flutter in my chest at his playful banter.
As we savored our meal, something unexpected unfolded: we found ourselves embroiled in a light-hearted argument over the last piece of steak. Brad, ever the Alpha, straightened in his seat, his posture radiating authority as he attempted to intimidate me with a serious glare.
“As the Alpha of this territory, I claim the right to the final portion,” he declared with mock solemnity, a grin threatening to break through his facade.
I met his gaze with unwavering determination. “As the one who cooked it, I believe my claim is far stronger.”
For a heartbeat, we locked eyes across the table, the tension electrifying the air between us. Then, to my astonishment, Brad’s expression softened, and he dramatically pushed the entire piece of steak onto my plate with an exaggerated sigh.
I couldn’t help but laugh as I handed him a piece of the bone-in meat I had prepared. The moment he accepted it, I noticed the familiar golden light flicker in his eyes—a sign that his wolf was thoroughly pleased. A warm sensation unfurled within me, filling me with a sense of joy that was almost palpable.
He devoured the food with an enthusiasm I rarely witnessed, finishing every last morsel on his plate.
After dinner, I suggested a stroll in the garden to aid digestion. The moon hung high in the sky, its silvery glow casting delicate shadows across the meticulously maintained grounds.
I opened my mouth to tell Brad he didn’t need to join me, but hesitated. Our relationship had been delicate lately, and I didn’t want to disrupt the tranquil atmosphere that had settled between us.
As we walked, I sensed Brad’s sharp instincts picking up on something I had been trying to conceal. “If you’re feeling any discomfort, we should head back inside,” he suggested softly, his concern evident.
“I’m not tired,” I replied truthfully, though I felt a twinge of vulnerability. “It’s just… I can feel my belly growing every day. It’s as if I can sense the changes happening within me.”
Brad’s gaze dropped to my midsection, and I noticed his nostrils flare slightly, a sign of his heightened werewolf senses.
“I can sense the changes too,” he admitted, surprising me with his candidness. Then, with an unexpected seriousness, he added, “I want to personally accompany you to Rayne Medical Center tomorrow for your checkup. I’ll clear my schedule.”
I blinked in astonishment, taken aback by his determination. “I could just go to a regular human hospital—”
“No.” His tone was firm, leaving no room for debate. “Rayne Medical Center has the appropriate equipment for… special circumstances.”
The following morning, Brad stayed true to his word. He wrapped up his pack business early and drove us to the medical center himself.
As we arrived, the entire facility seemed to come alive, every staff member—from the director to the nurses and technicians—eagerly stepping forward to greet us. The equipment was far more advanced than anything I had encountered in human hospitals, a testament to their commitment to excellence.
The medical team treated the baby I was carrying with the reverence of a precious treasure, double and triple-checking every result to eliminate any chance of error.
The specialist conducting the ultrasound moved the wand across my belly with utmost care, her focus unwavering. Suddenly, her face lit up with uncontainable excitement.
“Congratulations, Alpha Brad, Mrs. Rayne,” she exclaimed, her joy palpable. “You’re having a boy!”
The words struck me like a physical blow, reverberating through my very being. A boy.
I turned to Brad, expecting to see a look of satisfaction or perhaps strategic calculation in his expression. Instead, I was met with something that resembled pure wonder, a depth of emotion that took my breath away.
His hand instinctively moved toward my belly, hesitating just before contact, as if unsure whether he had the right to touch this miraculous life we had created together.
“A boy,” he repeated softly, and in that moment, I witnessed a side of Bradford Rayne I had never seen before—genuinely moved, vulnerable, and tender.
In the quiet aftermath of our dinner and the unexpected revelation at the medical center, a profound shift settled between Brad and me, transforming our relationship into something deeper and more meaningful. The laughter shared over the last piece of steak became a cherished memory, a symbol of our growing bond and the lightness we found in each other’s company. As I felt the warmth of his hand hovering near my belly, I realized that we were no longer just two individuals navigating the complexities of our lives; we were partners, united by the anticipation of a future we were building together. The weight of uncertainty that had once loomed over us began to dissipate, replaced by the promise of new beginnings and shared dreams.
As we stood there, enveloped in the soft glow of the medical center, I could see the flicker of hope in Brad’s amber eyes—hope for our son and for the family we were destined to become. The journey ahead would undoubtedly have its challenges, but in that moment, all I could feel was a rush of love and gratitude for the man beside me. We were no longer defined by our pasts or the expectations of others; we were carving out our own path, one filled with laughter, tenderness, and the shared joy of creating life.
