Chapter 45: Jealous or Fear?

Hanji's POV

I crawled into bed after we had our bath. Petra and Klaus had already gone to sleep, and I already checked on Raven multiple times. I've seen her sleeping on her back, and I couldn't help but think how adorable she was. Levi was just finishing his bath as he crawled into bed with me.

That night, we had to be silent. But we still managed to have some fun while being quiet. As we were settling for the night after sex, I couldn't help but feel some sort of feeling that Levi might betray me and go back to Petra... I know he wouldn't do that... but it was just a thought...

Then, I thought of just giving him hickeys. Hopefully, that would push Petra away...

I began to bite at his neck, hearing him groan in return. "Hanji, what are you doing?"

"Nothing..." I whispered, smiling as I proceeded to bite him. Biting down and sucking on the wound...

"If you're doing nothing, who's biting me on the neck?"

I stopped biting, sighing, "Fine, it's me. Is there something wrong with that?"

"A warning would be nice." 

"Sorry..."

"Are you okay, Hanji? You haven't been doing the biting thing for months. The last time I remember you doing this was when you were telling your pack that you were pregnant with Raven. Remember? A week before the wedding. What's gotten into you?"

"Maybe I just wanted to do it again..." I say, not knowing what he'll say if I told him the truth that I was getting scared about him leaving me... and I know he'll reassure me that it's just my feelings going haywire. 

"You're getting higher and higher. You forget I'm still doing my tutoring classes. Parents are going to have questions."

"True... but it's fine..."

"I'll figure a way to cover it up while I'm tutoring the kids." I could hear him smirking. "But soon, I might think of going hunting again. The original deal was that I could go after you healed up from giving birth. But having this... this is nice..."

"Then stay... stay for a little while..."

"Fine... maybe until after Raven turns 1."

"That's in 6 months, Levi."

"Too soon?"

"Maybe until she's 3." 

I pleaded, wanting him to stay with me as long as possible. Now that I'm a mother, I can't stand the idea of Levi not being around his daughter. I know hunting is important to him, but leaving him alone... scares me. The last time he went hunting... he was captured and almost killed. I don't want him killed... I don't want Raven to be fatherless... and I don't want to raise her alone without Levi...

By the sound of it, Levi gave up on arguing with me. "Okay... when she's 3. Are you done biting?"

"I am... goodnight, Levi..."

"Goodnight, my love..." He says before gently planting a kiss on my shoulder. That was the last thing I remember before closing my eyes for the night.

*   *   *

I heard some rustling when I woke up. When I opened my eyes, I could see Levi sitting up in bed, putting his shirt on. I smiled, dragging my body against the bed to kiss his side abs. "Good morning, Levi... tutoring lessons?"

He turns around, kissing my forehead. "No, I don't... I can just stay here all day with you..." I pulled him back into bed, kissing him furiously. "Whoa, take it easy... what's gotten into you, Hanji?" Levi smiles, running his hands up and down my back. "I thought I was making breakfast..."

"Pancakes?"

"What else?" We touched each other's noses for a bit before he got up. "I'll make pancakes and I'll take care of Raven. You can go back to sleep."

"You don't have to."

"I know Raven's usually up around this time. Don't worry, I got it." He reassures me, kissing me goodbye. "I'll see you when you wake back up." He leaves the room, and I sighed. The stupid idea of me spying popped into my head... and I went on with it.

I jumped out of bed in my wolf form, watching Levi pick Raven up from her crib and walk downstairs. Once he was off the stairs, I laid down at the top, laying my head over my paws. I carefully listened to the noises... listening to Petra's soft breathing as I hear soft footsteps below me. It must've been Klaus...

I could hear Raven's soft and familiar coos... and the sound of Levi struggling to make pancakes for breakfast with Raven in his arms. I shouldn't be afraid of Levi cheating over me... but Petra... I know she's a good person with a kind heart... so why do I feel jealous of her? Why?
