CHAPTER 4

1444 Words
Journey of motherhood. "Just shut up already. What impetus? Don't you dare speak to your Alpha in such a manner! I demand you show some respect. The only reason I'm being modest is that your mission isn't accomplished yet. Once this is over, you'd be chased out of this palace and never return. Don't play games with me.” "Hahaha! Amazing! What a performance. Is that all you've got? Bring it on! Show me the stuff you made of. I thought you were ruthless. I can only see a coward in front of me. You aren't worth it. Go get a life, you coward.” Her nostrils flared again, staring madly at the Alpha. Her gloaming gap lit for a moment with a profound red light, making her suddenly appear like the moon goddess herself. The situation was beginning to piss her off. Nothing ever matters to her anymore. "Durrella, get this godforsaken leper away from my sight. Ensure she starves for the next few days. That's her punishment for disrespecting me,” Kane commanded with a growl. Her presence was beginning to irritate him, and he might do something stupid if she didn't leave immediately. “Your wish is my command,” Durella responded with a bow and forcefully pulled Fiona by the arm. Suddenly, she got away from him and rushed out to throw up. Durella attempted to run after her but was halted by the Alpha, “Let her be! She can't possibly escape under the watchful eyes of the guards. She will come back. After throwing up, Fiona returned, looking so pale and staggering. With a move too fast, Kane gestured to Fiona and examined her body. “Your temperature is high. How long has this been happening?” "What do you care for? I thought you couldn't wait to get rid of me. Please let me be. I owe you no explanation,” "Don't talk back to me. I'm not your lover or mate. Just answer the damn question!” “For some days, I guess. I've been down with some sort of illness. I have been quite dizzy lately. Why the questions? The last time I checked, my presence disgusted you. Why the sudden change of mind?” Fiona confessed and peeked, rather confused. "You're pregnant! It's obvious. I can see it in your eyes," Kane exclaimed in excitement. "Pregnant! How? When did you suddenly become a doctor to detect a pregnant woman? I can't be pregnant. That's not even possible. And I had no idea about it.” Bewildered, Fiona asked. "This shouldn't be a shock to you. Of course, you know why you're here. You have just one assignment. Get pregnant for me. And you did. Well, I understand your surprise. It's your first pregnancy. It's okay not to know. Finally, the moon goddess answered my prayer. Finally! I'm going to be a father soon.” Kane jumped for joy and embraced Fiona, knowing he was one step from breaking the curse. After a month of pregnancy, Fiona was gradually embracing motherhood. She constantly falls weak and sad each time she recalls she won't have access to the baby after childbirth. She accepted her fate and pledged to stay strong until the baby was born. Begging for Kane to still keep her would be quite an impossible task. Fiona is no match for him. If it wasn't for the pregnancy, they would probably not know each other. Once she was put to bed, he would send her away from the pack with immediate effect. The pregnancy was already making Fiona experience some mood swings, which are mainly familiar to pregnant women. She already gained 5 kilograms of weight. Her heartbeat and breathing rate are now faster compared to her previous state. She feels diverse changes in her body as her hormones are slowly undergoing fresh rapid growth. She usually feels severe pains in the lower tummy area, which is caused by her growing womb. "You haven't eaten anything. It's not good for you and my baby. You both need plenty of nourishment. I don't want any complications at childbirth. I could order them to get you food. At this stage of pregnancy, you need nutrients to nurture the baby,” Kane proposed and indicated like an expectant father. He only cares about the child's well-being and would do anything to delight Fiona before she ends up harming the baby. Engaging her in a conflict might result in pregnancy intricacies that he wouldn't want to happen. "You need to stop being nice to me. You are making a fool of yourself. Can't you see your antics aren't working? I'm not falling for it. Nice try! We all know this pregnancy is the reason you're acting this nice. Stick to your beast mode. You're better than this character you're trying so hard to portray. I know the games you're playing. I'm not a fool,” Fiona stunned him and caught his tricks. “You're so difficult and unpredictable. Bullshit! Suit your f*****g self.” Kane frowned and looked away. "The moon goddess knows I detest every minute I dwell in this place. I'll never agree to be your bride for a sliver nor gold,” Fiona bantered the Alpha and almost got slapped again, but he halted and left his hand hanging in her hair. "Why did you stop? Go on and torture me! That's what you're known for. I'm not scared of you,” "I'm out of here. I can't deal with your madness. I would rather not regret my action,” the Alpha restrained his Anguish and stormed out of Fiona's room. Strolling to his chambers, he encounters Durella addressing the male wolves. He looked away and feigned a smile, trying to look so friendly and calm. The pretense was so obvious and caught Durella's attention. Hurriedly, he gestured to the Alpha, abandoning his meeting with the guards. “You look unsettled. What's the matter? Fiona is finally pregnant. You should be delighted. You've always yearned for that, don't you?” "It's wrong to abandon your meeting in crucial matters. Now run back to them immediately,” Kane instructed Durella, who showed concern about his mood. "The body gets affected when the head is chaotic. They'd be fine. The meeting can wait.” Durella remained adamant. "I'll tell you already. Fiona has been pissing me off lately. She suddenly lost all respect for me. She manipulates me with the pregnancy. She knows I can't lay a finger on her, not when she's carrying my child.” He narrated. "Fiona, again! I see the pregnancy had given her the impetus to disrespect you. I think you should just avoid her until the child is born.” Durella suggested, which didn't go well with the Alpha. "Impossible! Not until my son is born. You know that's not going to happen. I need to keep an eye on her. That leper shouldn't be trusted. My life rests on her shoulder.” Kane protested. “You're so confident. You can't be so sure.” Durella tackled him. Kane never thought about that before. "So what are you insinuating? That I should be expecting a girl child? I doubt the moon goddess would be so cruel as to allow that to happen to me. She was aware that the arrival of the boy would break the curse. Why send a child to me?” He asked in curiosity. "There's only one way to find out. Let's invite the moon guardian over to confirm the baby inside Fiona,” Durella proposed as the Alpha agreed. "Go call the moon guardian immediately,” Kane instructed and shuffled to his throne to cool off. Unknown to them, Fiona had been eavesdropping on their conversation from her room. What a strange way to finally discover the truth. She now understands why the Alpha was so nosy to see her get pregnant. “It's hard to reckon that I was just an instrument to liberate the Alpha from sudden death.” Fiona wept. Heartbroken by the situation, she laid a condemnation on her crooked stepfather and reprimanded him for the unfortunate incident. "That bastard brought this upon me. If he hadn't sold me out to the cruelest Alpha, I wouldn't be entangled in a situation like this,” she bemoaned further and decided to elope to another pack. There was no way she was going to let the Alpha take her baby. She felt cheated, humiliated, and betrayed by everyone. To avert her worst from happening. Suddenly, Fiona calmly loaded a few wares and eloped from the blood moon pack, making sure no one saw her.
