Hunter's POV

Walking outside, I sit on the porch watching the car return with the girls. The car comes to a stop in front of the house. I watch as Luna and Suri step out of the vehicle. The door closes behind them.

Where's Melody?

Standing, I approach and greet them at the front door. "Where's Keegan?"

Luna looks at me with hatred. "That woman shouldn't come near the house."

"What happened?" I cross my arms and wait for Luna to tell me what happened during the spa day.

Suri moves to my side and crosses her arms. "You should tell Hunter everything, Luna. He can help you."

Luna twists the ring on her finger. She looks at me and says. "While at the Spa, Keegan saw something that we didn't. She told us to stay in the change room until she got us. While we were trapped inside, I heard Peter's voice. It was weird to hear his voice as he was supposed to be at home and not here."

"How do you know, Peter?" I ask Luna.

Luna shifts uncomfortably on her feet and then turns to Suri for help, but when Suri doesn't say anything, she knows this story is on her. "We've worked together several times and..." she moves the ring on her finger and keeps eye contact away from me. "We had sex several times."

"And?" Suri looks at Luna. "Tell him the truth. After all, the family will find out soon enough."

Luna's face goes pale. "I'm pregnant. The kid might be Mike's, or it could be Peter's."

"WHAT?" I yell. "How could you be so irresponsible, Luna?"

"I had sex with two men I like a lot. Not at the same time, though. I hooked up with Peter when Mike and I were on breaks."

"Shit," I drag my hand through my hair. "Do you love Mike and Peter?"

"I don't know," Luna whispers. "I know that whoever the father of this child is, is the man I want to spend the rest of my life with."

"What if it's Peter's? Keegan told us that he will be dead before the afternoon is over."

"I hope Keegan's wrong about Peter. Whatever happens, I meant every word I said to Keegan."

"What did you say to Keegan?" I ask Luna.

This time Luna looks me in the eyes and says. "I don't want to know Keegan. She ruined my happiness. And the departing words to her were "I hate you."

"Luna," my hands form fists. "Why would you say something like that to her? Keegan protected you because of the information we discovered before you went to the Spa."

Luna looks at Suri and adds. "Did you know about this?"

"Yes," Suri steps behind me. Keegan didn't know about your relationship with Peter, and if she did, I'm sure she would do the same thing all over again. Are you going to tell Mike about the baby?"

"Mike knows I'm pregnant. He's excited for the baby to come along. I don't know how I will tell him he might not be the father."

"Are you serious?" Mike yells. "You were going to keep this from me?"

Luna moves behind me and holds onto my arm. "I'm sorry, Mike." She begins crying and wraps her arms around me.

Mike shakes his head. "I'm going home. Could you not contact me? I will have a lawyer drop by to get the DNA when the child is born. If it's mine, I will do the right thing by the child. As for us, I won't be looking back."

Luna continues to weep in my arms. "I ruined everything with the man I..."

Ayden walks into the room and looks at Luna. "Is it true you're pregnant and don't know if Mike is the father?"

"Yes,"

"Fuck," Ayden shoves me out of the way and holds onto our sister. "You're coming to my wing. You can sleep there." He touches her stomach. "The little one and you need to rest. The stress of the day won't do you any good."

Suri and I watch as our siblings walk away. She walks over to me. "What are we going to do about Keegan and Luna? There's no way Christmas will be enjoyable with Luna hating her."

"I'm sure Keegan will find a way to regain Luna's trust. After all, she protected our family with the information I had received."

The door to the house opens, and Keegan walks through it. She has a letter in her hand.

"What's that?" I ask Keegan.

Keegan looks at her hand. "It's a letter for Luna. I have to give it to her myself. It's from Peter."

A smile spreads across my face. "I knew you would find a way to make it up to my sister. Could you give it to her in a couple of days? That way, she can express her anger towards you."

"Okay," Keegan walks towards my wing, and I look at Suri.

Suri hugs me. "Be with your girl. I will see you later."

I'm not too far from Keegan when she opens the door. She holds it open for me. "Can we spend a couple of nights away from the house?"

"Where do you want to go?"

A smile spreads across Keegan's face. "To my place. It's not too far, and we won't be bothered by anyone."

"When do you want to leave?"

"Now," Keegan walks to her room and starts packing a bag.

After packing some clothes into my bag, I grabbed my phone and sent a message to Suri.

Me: Suri, Keegan, and I will spend a few nights at her place.

Suri: You have to share photos of her place. I bet it's gorgeous.

Me: I will. If you need anything, call me.

Suri: Okay,

Keegan walks into my room and looks at me. "Are you ready?"

"Yes," I grab her hand. "Should we get a car or would you like to drive?"

"You can drive. It will be nice to have a car like yours parked in front of mine." Keegan leans her head on my shoulder. "I want to get into the studio at the house."

"I can't wait to see you in your zone. Have you been working on new stuff?"

"Yes," Keegan places her lips on mine and kisses me. Pulling away, she says. "The new album will focus on the break-up from my ex to where I am now with you. You've inspired me for the last three songs I've written."

A smile spreads across my face. "I'm glad that I inspired you. Are you going to play something for me at the house?" When we get to the garage, I pull a key off the hook and choose the sleek black BMW.

"I'm going to do one better for you, Hunter. I will record the song."

Opening the door for Keegan, she steps into the car and puts on her seatbelt. I close the door and round to my side. I start the car and pull out of the garage.
As we drive from the house, I see Mike with his bags.

Keegan turns around and looks out the window. "Where's Mike going?"

"Mike's looking for a place to go to before going home. Luna told him that he might not be the baby's father. He told Luna not to contact him and that he was going home."

"Pick him up. I'll book a motel for him for a couple of nights until he can go home." Keegan calls the motel. The phone rings a couple of times before someone answers.

Voice: Nelly's Motel.

Keegan: Hi, I would like to book a three-night room.

Voice: When would you like to stay?

Keegan: Tonight,

Voice: That's impossible. We're fully booked.

Keegan: Can I speak to Nelly?

Voice: I'm sorry. She's not here right now.

Keegan: I know she's around the motel. Get her on the phone now.

Wow, I can't believe she's ordering someone around.

Pulling the car over, I wait for Mike to reach us.

Voice: I won't be long.

A few minutes later, an older woman's voice is heard.

Nelly: Hello, this is Nelly.

Keegan: Nelly, I need a room for a friend for a few nights.

Nelly: Who is this?

Keegan: It's Melody.

Nelly: I'll have a room prepared in five minutes. I will get your friend when they walk in.

Keegan: Can you please ensure that no one knows I'm in town? Also, when you greet my friend, can you use the name Keegan instead of Melody? I'm using that name while I'm here.

Nelly: Your secret is safe with me. Please stop by the house tomorrow.

Keegan: Thanks, and I will see you tomorrow. How is Henry?

Nelly: Good, he'll look forward to seeing you. Do you have any new songs? He'd love to hear something that's not on the radio.

Keegan: I have a few songs. I need to polish it off. So they will be a work in progress when I play them for Henry.

Nelly: We don't need the edited version. Are you coming with anyone?

Keegan: Yes, you'll love him. Bye. Nelly.

Nelly: Bye, Keegan.

Mike walks past the car, and I pull the window down. "Mike, do you need a lift to town?"

"Sure," Mike opens the door and climbs inside. He looks at Keegan and then at me. "Do you know any places with vacancies for a few nights? I can't get out of here until Thursday."

Keegan turns towards him and says. "I booked a place for you. Just let them know you're Keegan's friend."

Mike smiles at her. "Thanks, Keegan."

Pulling the car onto the road, I drive towards the motel, following Keegan's directions.

Mike leans forward and says. "How do you know your way around here?"

Keegan turns towards him. "I've been coming here since I was little."

"Did you ever run into the Westbrooks while you were here?"

"No," Keegan says, looking at me. "However, I have run into the Westbrooks in Los Angeles."

"Damn, I knew there was something about you, Keegan. I've also noticed that you know many people here, which tells me you're important. Thanks for helping me out."

"You're welcome. Are you going back to Los Angeles?"

"No," Mike looks out the window. "I'll be packing my stuff and moving to New York. Nothing is keeping me in Los Angeles anymore. Besides, it's been a while since I've seen my family."

"I'm sorry, Luna wasn't right for you," I tell him. "I'm sure there will be a better woman than her out there for you."

"Hunter," Keegan scolds. "You shouldn't say that about your sister."

Mike laughs. "You two are acting like a married couple."

Reaching for Keegan's hand, I say. "I like the sound of us being a married couple." I wink at Keegan.

Keegan's face turns red, and she smiles at me. "Turn right here."

Turning right, I head toward the red sign that says Nelly's Motel. When I get there, I pull in front of the entrance. "Mike, if you need anything, call me."

Mike holds his hand out to me. "Thanks, man. It's been nice knowing you, Hunter." His attention turns towards Keegan. "Keep Hunter out of trouble."

"I will." Keegan watches Mike grab his stuff before saying. "Mike, have a safe flight. It was nice meeting you."

"You too," Mike walks towards the entrance of the motel.

When Mike is inside the motel, I pull onto the road and head towards Keegan's place. It doesn't take long before we're pulling in front of a chateau with stairs leading to the front door.
