Pregnant With Alpha’s Genius Twins
Chapter 66
#Chapter 66 – Car trouble
“I mean, did we have to go across town for the burgers?” I say, running an exasperated hand through my hair as I stand on the side of the road, staring at the steaming engine of Victor’s Jeep.
“We had to get the best, mom,” Alvin says sternly, ready to jump to his dad’s defense. The boys were thrilled to learn, about four hours ago, that this wasn’t a quick trip to McDonalds. Instead, we had to go about an hour west to the little diner that Victor frequented when he was a teenager, which he swears up and down have the best burgers and shakes in the world.
In his defense, they were delicious. But then, when we had driven about ten minutes away from that diner with our full bellies, the car had begun to shake and tremble, a steady cloud of steam rising from the hood.
Victor immediately pulled us over by the side of the road which is, unfortunately, in the middle of nowhere.
At first he tried to fix it himself with the boys’ enthusiastic support. But after about twenty minutes of that, he had to admit that he was beat.
“Yeah,” Victor says, on the phone with his Beta. “I’ll drop you a pin, please come and get us. We’re going to need an extra car for my family, and the tow truck to bring this one home.” He pauses, listening. “Yup. Okay. Great.”
Hanging up, he comes over to me, shaking his head. “They’re coming, but it’s going to take a minute to get the tow truck out of the garage.”
“You have a tow truck?” I say, scrunching my face a little derisively.
He shrugs. “I have everything I need.” He puts his phone in his pocket, shaking his head. “God, the one time I decline a Beta car following along for protection. I just wanted a quiet night with my family.”
I silently note to myself that his whole family isn’t here, that he has somehow conveniently forgotten Amelia.
“Why, what would that have done?” I ask.
He shrugs again. “We could have taken their car and been home by now. Left them here to wait for the tow truck.”
I laugh at him and he looks at me with surprise. “That’s not a very nice way to treat your poor Betas,” I say. “Leaving them by the side of the road to deal with your mess.”
He smirks and shrugs. “It’s their job, Evelyn. Besides,” he looks around worryingly at the sky, which is growing deeper shades of blue as the sun sets. “I don’t like having the boys out here in the dark.”
“Ah, they’ve got their big Alpha dad to protect them,” I say, punching him lightly on the arm. “We’ll be fine.”
“Mommm,” Ian calls from the back seat of the car. “Can we goooo.” He’s rubbing his eyes and I can see that he’s tired after a big day and a full meal. Alvin, I’m sure, is the same, but he’s putting on a braver face.
“We can’t, baby, the car is dead.”
