Chapter 21 -21-

Normal people would act very happy when they receive baby news but to me, it was the worst. I was

going to die with a curse and pass it along with my daughter/son, I couldn't do that. I was stuck in

dead ends, it was horrible how I had to say goodbye to my mate than to the baby that was still

inside of me for one week.

Tears gushed as the lady grew confused at my very sad reaction. She looked at the doctor as he

shrugged, pretending not to know anything.

"Are those tears of happiness?” I nodded at her question as she hugged me.

"I know you can push through, you are a very tough Luna." If only that lady knew how much I had

gone through and the fact that I will die because of that God-forsaken curse the Moon Goddess put

in me.

"I hope so." I whispered as she encouraged me with a bright smile and she even volunteered to

teach me how to raise babies, I cried harder at the fact that I couldn't bring her into this world, I

wiped my eyes furiously as the lady patted my shoulder and thought it was because I had no

experience.

"Come on, let's walk you to the mansion.” The doctor advised and I agreed, I was exhausted and I

had to go back to my mate. It was getting late, almost eleven pm and my stomach were bitter from

the new pregnancy. It was going to be hard to hide from the Alpha since the fetus would grow

rapidly, more than a human.

I whimpered as my wolf nagged at me for a run but I simply couldn't because I had swollen sore

feet to rest since these events took a toll on me. I decided to tell the Alpha without mentioning the

curse, I wanted to see him happy with this good news.

Laying my two sore feet on the pillow as I laid down was pure heaven, it pained me too much to

walk and turned to my side of the bed, closing my eyes into a deep slumber.

The morning sun shone through the window to my face in an interrupted sleep, my eyelids fluttered

and took in the fresh breeze along with the soft glow of the sun, the white room was spacey and a

pair of arms embraced around my waist.

It took me a second to notice but the small bump was getting bigger and faster, but the sight of my

mate's arms around my small bump brought a smile to my face.

He was going to be a great father. Lace said and I nodded. I turned around to see his face, his

eyelashes touched his cheeks and his ruffled hair was pushed back as he breathed in and out with

full lips. I loved him so much, I had no choice. I hugged him as he woke up, my red silk gown

without a bra on flush against his naked chest.

"Good morning, aren't you eager to me?" He rubbed his eyes with a small smirk. I chuckled and

realized that we slept till 12 pm from exhaustion.

"It's noon and you need to go do your Alpha duties,” I commanded and he stared at me in

amusement as I looked down on the freckles across his nose. His hurricane eyes gave a lighter blue

color as the sunlight shone on him. He was a stunning man.

"No, I want to stay with you, just for a few minutes.” He said in his deep morning voice, I traced his

abs as his eyes darkened on my face as I continued to trail my fingertips to his mark, I was definitely

an eager one considering the red wolf-shaped mark was prominent on his neck.

"I have something to tell you." I began, I might never have time to tell him sooner.

"You do actually because I felt you were tired and that drained me while searching so I came back

and wanted to talk to you but you were asleep." He held my hand against his chest.

"I am pregnant.” His eyes went saucers at my bright and early confession as his hands felt my

stomach, the tiny heartbeat was heard by both of us.

"But-but you can't." He said in alarm and I stroked the side of his face.

"Yes, I will do anything to protect our baby." His eyes gleamed even more as he squeezed me tight

in his embrace and I laughed.

"We're going to have a baby.” A tear dropped to his cheek and I wiped it, he was so genuinely

happy that it spread my heart with pleasure to see him so hopeful.

I was going to enjoy this memory because of what was about to happen later. I had to die to keep

this pack alive or be alive with everyone killed. I couldn't risk that, I'd prefer the less worst but these

two options were the most dreadful ones.

It's alright, just live in the now then we'll think about it later. Lace calmed me down

"Get ready, we're going out on a date.” His playful side showed and I loved every part of it, I went to

get ready as he strode to the bathroom.

I wore a red long flowy dress with lilac shaped pins on my hair, along with a pair of black flats since

my feet were still sore. If I was a normal human being, I would be called a slut for the early

pregnancy at the age of only eighteen but I'm a werewolf and once you find your mate, that was it.
