Chapter 308 - Crazy Pregnant Women Part 1
Stanley checked the time and he got up to make something to eat for his love and his baby. He was on his way to the kitchen when Fin called, and he answered him using the earpiece as he rummaged on the cabinets.
"Hey what\'s up, bro?" He asked. Fin sighed heavily.
"Selina is driving me crazy." He murmured. He sounded like he hasn\'t slept for days.
"Huh?"
"Yesterday, she constantly asked for sex and now, she\'s not in the mood to have sex and now she\'s crying that I am not giving her enough attention. I was working in the baby\'s room, Stan. Damn it." Fin complains. Stanley laughed and laughed.
"Whatever she does, do not call her crazy. Okay?" Stanley warned.
"Okay. I won\'t do that. Fucking hormones." He murmured. It\'s the first time that he heard him complain over Selina. "I love her, and I will pass her tantrums."
"Girls are complicated bro. Luna is a little like that but she\'s more sensitive on a few things."
"God help me," Fin muttered.
"Just do what she wanted."
"I will. Thank you for listening to my complaints."
"Sure. I understand you, bro."
Fin hung up and he continues preparing their breakfast. He sizzled the bacon and ready to put the egg when their doorbell rang. It\'s odd to have a visitor at this moment and he didn\'t order anything at all.
He checked the camera outside to find a man in a suit with five bodyguards lined in behind him. Luna came up and smiled at him.
"Babe," he lifted his hand and told her to take over. He called the security outside the subdivision and ask about the visitor.
"Sir, they have Dragon pass and said that they have a letter to deliver and a gift."
"We don\'t accept visitors…" He muttered. He took his gun with him. He took his facemask and checked if they have guns with them. He opened the small gate and peeked on the man outside that smiled at him widely.
He doesn\'t know if he was genuine or something. Good suit with real leather shoes. The man smiled again when he looked up at his face. He\'s wearing shades and he had a box on his hand.
"How may I help you?" He asked and show his full body to him and he scanned the men outside.
"Well—I am here… to…"
"Make your guards step out if you wanted to talk. At least ten steps away from you. I wanted to see that they don\'t have guns with them."
He nodded and then he signed his men. They take ten steps away from him as they show their inner coats that they have no guns.
"Well?" Stanley gesture to him.
"I am here to deliver a gift." He said with a big smile.
"Hmm. Who are you?" He asked again.
"I\'m Adrian Lebedov."
"Ah, Russian." He crossed his arms. "But you have a very outstanding American accent."
"I lived in America since I was five and somehow, I adopt it." He said and smiled at him.
"Stop smiling. What do you want?"
"Here." He extended the box to him.
"Do you know who I am?" He didn\'t accept the box and asked him again. He opened his mouth to answer.
"Stanley Mondragon." He said.
"What the fuck, Steven!" A man makes them all stopped. He\'s good looking as Stanley and looked like Stanley. "How did you manage to befriend a big-time man." Steven pulled Freya with him.
"So, you aren\'t Stanley Mondragon?" Adrian got confused between the two.
"Yeah. He\'s Steven Mondragon." Steven said to fuck with the man\'s mind. "Uhh," He bit his lip. "And you are?"
"I\'m Adrian Lebedov."
"Ah," He nodded. "So, what do you want from me?" He asked.
Freya scanned them one by one stealthily.
"Well, I have a gift. It\'s meant for Lady Selina, maybe you could send it to her for me?"
"Ohh," Stanley nodded and stepped out. "He\'s Steven and I\'m Stanley," Stanley said. "What do you want from Selina?" He crossed his arms.
"I wanted to meet her personally and woo her."
"Very gentlemanly." Freya murmured and the man looked at her and then the Dragon necklace that she\'s wearing. "But I think you should take it back. Selina is already engaged."
"Oh, this is my girlfriend." Steven pulled Freya. "Freya."
Freya didn\'t even smile at him. She only looked at the man straight into his eyes.
"She\'s engaged?" Adrian muttered.
"Yup. All of the Mondragon girls are taken." Stanley said. "I\'m sorry to say that."
"Oh." He stepped back and looked down at his shoes like a kid.
"How about the daughter of General Edmond?"
Steven pouted with a frown and looked at Stanley.
"Uhh, you sure about that?" Stanley said. "She\'s not in good condition."
"No. Not Kathleen… I supposed that there\'s another?"
Steven and Stanley looked at each other, puzzled. They shrugged.
"There\'s only Kathleen," Steven told.
He exhaled and looked at Freya once more.
"Well, dude. Not my girl." Steven wrapped his arm around her possessively.
"I—I am sorry." He said. "If you wanted to woo Kathleen, then I think you have to get a pass from our grandfather. You know the rules, right?"
Adrian nodded and give the box to Stanley. Stanley opened in to checked it. It\'s bars of gold. Then he laughed. He gave it back.
"We don\'t need that. We don\'t sell our ladies in our family."
"It\'s a gift," Adrian said.
"You are stupid, Mr. Lebedov." Freya said and took the box and gave it back to him. "If you want to woo a woman, do not give her such a gift. Maybe, others would want such things like gold diggers…"
"Aren\'t you?" Adrian asked. Freya smirked and Steven frowned at Adrian. Then Freya laughed as she tilted her head and shrugged.
"Maybe, I am. But I rather dig for diamonds than golds." She said and entered the house. "Finished it, boys. I am hungry." Then she turned again to see Adrian to meet his eyes.
Freya remained calm as she faced Adrian. The man\'s family killed her family. He\'s the heir and he\'s part of it. But first, she needed to know his people inside the Dragon Empire. She\'s very certain that they are going to kill Andromeda.
"I\'m sorry, Bro," Steven said to Adrian and shrugged. He entered Stanley\'s house and grabbed Freya\'s ass as he pulled her to him close and he sucked her lips shortly. "Stan, girls are hungry." He said.
Stanley stepped back inside and looked at Adrian.
"It\'s nice meeting you, Adrian." He closed the gate and he turned on the alarm. He watched Adrian looked at the camera and he capture that and send it to Andromeda.
He followed them inside and pulled out the gun from his back and put it on safety. Then he placed it on the sliding door, and he closed the doors. He kept on monitoring the cars outside as it left the subdivision.
He went to the kitchen where Freya is helping Luna preparing the breakfast. He looked at Steven who is watching Freya. Well, Freya is cool a while ago. The man outside is the heir of Eagle empire and she remained her coolness rather than attacking the man and killing him. The man\'s family killed her family.
Steven walked around the counter to Freya\'s back and hugged her.
"Babe, shall we go to the grocery? We keep on showing up on their house to eat." He muttered to her ear.
Stanley kissed Luna\'s forehead and helped her with cooking.

Fin frowned as he listened to Freya about the man named Adrian Lebedov. He reached Selina\'s small bump and get possessive of her as he listened to Freya\'s words and a story about the handsome man of the Eagle Empire.
"Don\'t you dare say that he\'s handsome." Fin gritted his teeth. Freya laughed on the other line.
"He is handsome. Selina might fall for it." Freya kept on laughing on the other line.
"What is it?" Selina asked as she peeled the orange.
"It\'s nothing." Fin said and kissed her forehead.
"Are you sure?" She frowned at him. He nodded and smiled at her.
"I\'ll talk to you later, Freya." He hung up and helped her peel the orange then he put it on the plate.
"Tell me." She smacked his chest with the back of her hand and he winced. If she only knew that even though his chest is hard, she got a heavy hand and it hurts a little. "Tell me, now!" She insisted.
He cleared his throat and then adjust to his seat to face her.
"Well, I received a letter meant for you, from the Eagle Empire. It\'s probably from the Heir."
"What does it say?" She asked as she looked at him.
"He\'s asking for your hand."
"Huh." She nodded.
"What does he look like?" She asked. "I am sure that they send you his photo. I want to see it." She demanded.
Fin rolled his eyes and pulled out his phone and then he showed it to her. She took it and looked at the man as she bit her lip like a teenager.
"Yeah, he\'s handsome." He immediately snatched his phone back. "Hey!" She smacked his arm and reached the phone to admire the handsome guy.
"You are hurting me right now, Selina." He growled.
"I am just admiring the guy! It doesn\'t mean anything at all!" She smacked him again. Damn, this woman is truly hurting him again. Mood. Well, he must get through it though it\'s just her first trimester and in a few days, it will be her second trimester. He exhaled.
Breathe, Fin.
