"Fine," Davian grumbled, conceding very unhappily.

He took the key from one of his men, walking towards the car that had been prepared for the trip.

"Checked?" He spoke in quiet tones to him.

The man looked grave as he responded, "Every square inch."

Davian still didn’t look convinced but he let it go, opening the passenger’s door for Lake.

"Thank you," Lake murmured, getting in, the interior of the car protecting him from the curious stares of Davian’s men.

It didn’t help that he knew them as well as they knew him, making his new situation that more awkward.

The sun was setting as they drove out of the mansion gates, Lake nervously buckling his seat belt.

He couldn’t pinpoint exactly why he was nervous, it could be the new experience he was having.

It could also be the dangerous expression Davian was currently wearing.

Was the Mafia King upset? Had he finally toed the line?

The car ride was deathly silent, the sun completely set by the time they got to their destination.

It was a commercial building, and Davian pulled into the busy parking lot.

Lake instinctively got out without Davian’s help, unused to having his doors held open for him.

The soft light of the evening provided the perfect cover for them, they blended into the light crowd going in and out of the building.

Lake gravitated closer to Davian when he put an arm around him.

It was a ridiculous thought considering all the signs that were showing, but the paranoia that the doctor would find out that he wasn’t actually pregnant clung to his thoughts.

They got into an elevator, with a handful of others, and he avoided Davian’s gaze, extremely self-conscious.

It was fascinating how Davian blended into the background, because to him, the Alpha was like a force of nature.

"We’re getting off here," Davian’s voice broke into his thoughts, leading him off the elevator.

The ’office’ of the family doctor was essentially a mini hospital tucked into the commercial building.

They were immediately directed to an office by a jittery assistant, the door she led them to opened to a dim office done in classic brown and black decor.

All in-laid mahogany and hanging chandeliers.

Lake sat down in the chair Davian held out for him, a balding, middle-aged man wearing a doctor’s coat rising to his feet.

The doctor was frozen, his eyes bulging out of his head as he stared at Lake.

Micheal Perez was worried he was having a stroke, because when Mafia King Davian had given him a call for a visit, he had expected just him.

And it was easy to deduce that it had something to do with his rut cycle.

Because they had a scheduled checkup a couple of days ago, and if the Alpha hadn’t shown up, it meant that he had gotten his rut.

So a visit from him wasn’t unlikely, not to mention, he had sounded fine on the phone so Micheal had just been expecting some questions.

His expectations were nothing at all like the scene in front of him... A clearly pregnant Omega who was marked.

He shook himself out of it and put on a professional air, offering Davian a hand, bowing respectfully when the Mafia King took it.

"You didn’t have to make the trip all the way here with your... mate," He hurriedly cleared his throat as he said that, nervous to make a blunder.

It was the usual thing Doctor Perez always said, he always asked Mafia King Davian to let him make home visits, and the Alpha turned him down each time.

"I’ll gladly make the trip down..."

Neither Davian nor Lake said a word at how Doctor Perez addressed Lake.

Lake could see how their situation could be misunderstood, maybe he should go back to wearing silk ties around his neck.

"Make the trip down," Davian cut him off.

Micheal was more stunned by this than he was by Davian showing up with a pregnant Omega on his arm.

"W-What?" He blustered, sure his ears were failing him.

"I intended to talk to you about it later. I want you to make routine trips to check up on Lake at the mansion." He said flatly, getting right to it.

"Whatever equipment you need will be installed at the mansion ahead of time."

"O-Of c-course," Doctor Perez puffed out his chest, nearly rising to his feet again in excitement.

At first, he hadn’t been sure what the sudden appearance of a marked and pregnant Omega meant for Davian, but clearly the Alpha was finally getting serious.

Ever since the tragic death of his parents six years ago, the Alpha had been nothing but a shell of himself, his Mafia House fading from the limelight.

But now things seemed to be turning around, with the introduction of the heir of the Black Mafia House, Mafia King Davian was starting to return to the old ways.

"For today," He went right to business, adjusting the lapels of his white coat. "We’ll need to run a couple of blood tests to start..."

Lake relaxed at the casual air in the room, the doctor seemed genuinely eager to help.

Doctor Perez had been speaking bluntly when he mentioned that it would just be a couple of blood tests.

It lasted all of a few minutes for the doctor to draw the blood, and it would have been completely tolerable if it weren’t for Davian’s presence.

"I’ll bring the results of the tests along with me on my next home visit," The doctor said to them both and Lake was sure he could see a smile on his face.

"Could I talk to you privately?" Lake took the leap when it looked like they were about to end the visit.

Davian immediately whipped around and stared a hole through him but he was unshaken.

Doctor Perez shot a nervous side eye to Davian but he had to agree despite the danger, it was his duty as a primary care physician to make sure his patients were safe.
