Pregnant After One Night With The Lycan Chapter 80
Pregnant After One Night With The Lycan By Kellie Brown
Chapter 80 Where’s Your Ruby Ne
Tanya’s POV:
Lily and I are ring angrily at each other just as Maroc walks in, and he doesn’t hide that he’s
overheard the conversation between the two of us. “Tanya has talent. She is not ipetent,” he
suddenly states proudly whilst walking over to my side.
“Her getting the job wasn’t just because of me. I only mentioned to Vivian through Philip and Thomas
that Tanya desired to return to work at thepany. It was Vivian who was more than happy to have
her, and even praised her talent and her achievement for winning the perfumepet*ition. So Vivian
invited Tanya to return to Eau de Luna Parfumerie as a special consultant.”

It warms my heart tenderly as Marco defends me, and I’m sincerely touched by his words. But he’s not
done. His icy re then snaps to Lily. “You have no right to belittle her talent,” he c*oc*ks his head in
piercing look that makes me shiver. “Was it not you that lost to her in thepet*ition?”
Lily’s obviously bbergasted by the confrontation, she flusters with her words to begin with, before
releasing them in a fit of anger. “Have you forgotten what Tanya did to you 5 years ago? She’s a terrible
person! Why are you defending her?”
Marco barely reacts, and only says in a cold voice. “That is not a matter that concerns you. Or anyone
else. It’s between me and Tanya, and I have the right to choose whether to forgive Tanya or not. But no
one else has the right to b*ull*y her. Not you.”
Lily is flustered, her shoulders sagging as she doesn’t know how else to respond. Marco simply huffs
before turning to me with a smile. “Happy Valentine’s Day,” I’m astonished and undeniably adore the
roses he hands me. I can’t help but drop my head into therge bouquet to inhale the sharp romantic
smell, before my eyes lift back to him, sparkling with inner joy.
But that’s not all. I watch him reveal a box from a gift bag he brought along, opening the box to reveal a
dazzling diamond ne. I’m left speechless, stammering as I try to respond. “Marco… this is too
much- thank you.”
He chuckles softly. “Nonsense. Turn around so I can put this on you.” n
Iply without a hint of protest, allowing him to sp the silver chain round my neck so the diamond
pendant sits fresh and bright against my cor bone, as if it belonged there all along.
I truly am overjoyed, and I’m swimming in pride that he would get me something so beautiful. Marco
really spends Valentine’s Day with me as he promised 5 years ago. I don’t have to receive fake,
malicious roses on Valentine’s Day anymore.
But my emotions are contrasting heavily to Lily’s. She appears shocked and in some form of disarray
that she tries to hide, before pointing out. “But where’s your ruby ne Tanya?” I look at her with
slight confusion, I didn’t think Lily would notice something as simple as a ne when she disliked
me so much.
But Marco answers for me. “Tanya took it off and left it in my room at the pce.”
I don’t seem to understand Lily’s rage, but I know Marco. Although everyone may not have noticed, I
caught a glint in Marco’s eyes when he answered Lily, as if he had predicted Lily’s fluster and had been
waiting for Lily’s inquiry, i
Nevertheless, my thinking is interrupted as Marco takes my hand, and we head home together. It’ste
in the afternoon by now, and ire is already home from school. She greets us enthusiastically by the
door, although I notice her eyes dart excitedly to our hands thaty intertwined.
Before I can ask about her day, ire cuts me off with a sudden statement. ‘‘Will you and Marco sleep
in the same room tonight?” she winks mischievously as we both look at her with considerable surprise.
Since we don’t answer her immediately, she chooses to borate. “My friends at school told me their
mom and dad sleep together,” again, Marco and I really don’t know how to respond to her childish
inquires, and we both try to change the conversation one way or the other. But throughout the entire
evening, ire periodically brings it up again.
Eventually we have to pretend that we’re going into the same room together for night. Finally, alone I
say to Marco. “What are we meant to do? Marco, she’s insistent. She won’t let this go.”
He sighs. “I know, I know….” his head tilts in thought. “Maybe, to ensure she believes that we’re in love
we should sleep together in the same room tonight…. Just for the time being, until she forgets.”
I’m obviously shocked. I blink at him, and then blink again, unable to understand orprehend his
proposal. But before I can say anything else, Marco turns away from me sharply, as if to hide
embarra*s*sment. He then suddenly puts on a rather confident air while saying. “Well, I’ve already
done my part pretending to be a good husband, I’m sure it shouldn’t be too hard for you to help me out
a little.”
I can’t help but only yfully roll my eyes as he continues. “Look, we will just sleep in the same bed,
that’s all. Also, I think I’ve given you enoughpensation for holding up your end of the deal,” he
points at the box, which withholds my new diamond ne that I’ve put back.
My mouth gapes in the form of a smile in response to his teasing. “Excuse me? The ne was a
gift! You can’t use it as a bribe,” I say in jest.
“Sure I can,” he grins, and before I can grab it, Marco swiftly snatches the box that contains the
ne. “Hey!”
He toys with me, dangling the ne out of my reach, and I can’t help the giggle that escapes me.
He uses his height against me, lifting the ne high up whilst I continuously jump, trying to catch it.
Eventually I jump and barrel into him identally, and we tumble onto the bed with me on top.
But Marco still doesn’t give in. Every time I try and snag the piece of jewellery, he yanks it out of reach
with a yfulugh. I straddle his torso and pin his legs in ce with my weight as best I can to stop
his wiggling. “Give it here Marco!” yelling withughter as I miss to catch hold of it once again.
There’s a rough yfulness in my actions that I can’t help it at the moment, as I do whatever I can to
win our silly game. I pull his clothes and try and hold down his other hand whilst reaching out for the
ne. We’re so closely pressed together I can hear the erratic rise and fall of his chest as he
laughs.
But suddenly, I feel Marco stiffen beneath me, and despite lying down, his head lifts to look at the
doorway. My head turns to his line of sight, and I immediately flush red with embarra*s*sment as ire
stands there looking at us both curiously. Although her smile is infectious, and we all burst intoughter.
Marco helps me off him and he grabs ire and pulls her onto the bed with us. No longer than ten
minutes and she’s fast asleep. Although Marco and I remain awake, somehow both knowing that we
need to talk. He whispers into the darkness. “Have you felt any changes to your body recently?”
Somehow, I thought he might’ve known, or at least guessed that something had changed within me. I
nod. “I actually have a wolf,” I can’t help the excitement in my voice as I say this. “She spoke to me a
few days ago. She told me that even though other werewolves don’t sense my wolf yet, they will soon.
And…” I almost feel the same amount of disbelief as when Freya first told me. “I’ll be able to transform
into a wolf soon.”
Despite the ckness of our surroundings, I can clearly see his blue eyes widen in surprise, before he
smiles at me. “That sounds amazing.”

I don’t reply to him immediately, and he senses my difort. “You’re not excited?”
I sigh. “Don’t get me wrong, course I am. All this time I believed I’d never have a wolf, and now finally
know I have one and that I can transform one day. It’s surreal …. But.”
“But what?”
“It just sucks because I suspect that the barrier that was suppressing my wolf for so long was the ruby
ne my mother left me… I just don’t know what to believe anymore. Why would she leave me
something that would hurt me?”
Marco reaches over ire whose still fast asleep, and gently rubs a hand over my shoulder, trying to
comfort me. He gives my arm a squeeze, forcing me to look back into his eyes. “I promise we will find
out who did this.” “But how?”
He smiles confidently. “Lily also has a diamond ne that she always wears. I suspect that your
ne and hers are the keys to solving the mystery surrounding your birth. We will finally know the
truth.”
I smile back at him, not sure if that is even possible. But I trust him. “I hope so.”
“Don’t worry. The n has already started. I’m going to get Lily to us the truth herself.”
