The Alpha's Broken Heart

Little me~Nate~Earth.

"Nate, I believe everything is fine with her. Her leg is not infected and it's all healed. The baby wasn't affected by the blood loss and she is perfect to go. " Rebecca says to me once we are out of the hospital room. I freeze and look at her.

" The baby? " I ask, hoping I heard correct.' Please please please! ' Jake is chanting in my head.

" Yes the baby...don't you know?" she asks and looks at my face. She chuckles lightly.

" Luna Nefeli is four weeks preggo!" she says shaking with happiness. She is about to continue when she is called. She excuses herself and walks off to another patient.

' Pregnant, I can't believe it! ' it taking all of my self control to not jump around. I feel my eyes water with happy tears, so I rush into Nefeli's room. People can't see their alpha crying, it would make me seem weak.

As I walk in, I see Nefeli gazing longingly at the trees outside. She looks like she is determined to do something. As if sensing my stare, she turns to me, smiling lightly. It drops as she sees my teary eyes. She sits up and looks at me again. I start approaching the bed as she tries to stand. ' My little guy is in there, I wonder if he can sense me?' Jake says all gushy. I reach just as she gets her uninjured leg out of the blankets. I push her down.

How would I even tell her? The words die in my head. What if she doesn't want to get pregnant? What if she leaves me? I allow the thoughts to consume me. They all seem to clear up as she brushes my cheek, where a tear decided to trail downward. She rest her palm against my jaw lovingly. I relish in the sparks. Once my head is clear and I feel confident, I open my eyes to see her... She looks too worried... ' Worrying is not good for the baby!' Jake growls in my head. I snap out of it. I notice she is asking me questions. I try to respond but my voice is lost somehow. She continues on and I watch her lips move. I imagine her scolding our toddler and I when she catches us up past his bed time. Or her telling her or him a bed time story when he can't sleep.

I let out a sigh and decide to tell her and hope for the best.

" Nefeli, we're pregnant." I say and watch her freeze. She looks at me as her eyes let out a waterfall of tears. I then notice my face is covered in tears, but I could care less. I watch her hug her stomach and laugh happily. She grabs my hand and places it palm down on her stomach.

"Nate, I can't-" she says and chokes on a sob. She can't what? No, no, no!

"You can't what? We can do this, I'm willing to be here, not that you could get rid of me." I say quickly, my voice cracking multiple times.

" I can't believe this!" she shouts grabbing my neck and smashing her lips on mine. She ends the kiss too quickly and hugs me, as if afraid I would fade away. I hug her back and I feel the babies heart beat against my chest. I sigh in happiness. I lift us, carefully, whilst hugging her, and settle into the bed with her hugging me and sitting on my lap.

After a while I hear her snore lightly and I position her better. She quiets down and snuggles into me. I soon fall asleep too.

Knock! Knock! Knock! I hear someone knocking on the door. I open an eye and see Amara and Xavier peeping through the door. I wave them in.

"Lord have mercy on that poor hospital bed." Xavier says eyeing the bed in mock pity. I glare at him and he laughs.

"Shush! if she wakes up I'm gonna make you mop the gym." I say whisper shouting.

" You woke me up, so does that mean I can make you mop the gym?" Nefeli asks from my chest. The whole room erupts in laughter. I pale a bit because if she told me to, I would have to do it to make her happy.

"How are you Cloudie?" Amara asks walking closer. Nefeli sits up and looks around before settling on her.

"The i***t tried to sneak up on me... What happened to her?" Nefeli asks.

" I beat her up and then Nate was about to banish her but Jace said no sooo, she is in the dungeons. Awaiting beautiful punishment by yours truly." Amara says bowing after finishing. Nefeli giggles at her. Xavier suddenly sniffs around the room. He walks forward abit sniffing and starts heading towards the bed. He continue sniffing and starts sniffing Nefeli's stomach. I slap his nose and he stumbles back pouting before he smirks.

" Congratulations, Alpha and Luna. I hope you have found favor in my name, it's quite charming, isn't it." he says trying to sound sweet. Amara walks forward and places a palm on the stomach. Her stomach glows and she grabs Nefeli and swings her around like a toddler would a rag doll. Panicking I stand up trying to grab Nefeli from her.

"Amara put her down, you'll hurt her!" I shout and Amara blushes before placing her in my arms. I breathe in her scent before placing her on the bed. She tries to stand so I look at her.

"What's wrong? What do you need?" I say frantically. She just shakes her head and stands pushing at my chest. I notice she is weaker than usual.

"It's a Olympian thing. When we get pregnant our powers shut down so that the baby can use our power genes to generate it's own. So right now she is technically human." Amara says reading my mind. Nefeli gives up and crawls across the bed, away from me. She gets up and walks to hug Xavier. Xavier freezes and turns to me. I shrug and he wraps his arm around her stiffly, trying not to get me mad. She pulls away and looks at him crying. He looks like he's about to vomit.

"I'm so so so sorry about your sketches. I dropped your book by the door. I really am sorry" she says the tears falling. ' If she keeps this up she will get dehydrated' Jake says in my head. Xavier just waves it off, still looking sick for making her cry in front of me.

"Wait!" I shout realising something. Everyone is staring at me, confused.

"How did she use her powers with Selena?" I ask. Amara thinks before talking.

" Well probably because she is half goddess, half Olympian warrior. So maybe she has her goddess side, but in her natural state which is her warrior half, she is human." she said nodding at her answer. I also nod. It makes sense.

Nefeli walks to me and snuggles into my side, trying to climb me. I lift her and she hides her face.

"So he's gonna lock her in his bunker, I'm gonna baby sitting my god child, I will have to take care of the beta position whilst Jace takes care of the pack. That's a plan." Xavier says looking up thoughtfully and Amara smacks the back of his head.

I look to Nefeli and I see she had already fallen asleep. I should probably keep her in my own house, Amara could take care of her and Xavier could guard them. I walk out of the room with Nefeli in my arms. Xavier and Amara signing the discharge documents.

I walk to my truck and place her in the passengers side, locking the door, before opening my door. I paused as I smell something. I close my door and lock it. I see Xavier run towards me and also look towards the woods, where the smell is coming from.

I see three of them emerge from the thick trees, unarmed, but still a possible threat. I see them carrying a pale looking friend. I look at their faces and pause as I see a familiar one.' You have to be frickin kidding me! '

Jake and I say together in my head. I see her approach alone. She walks towards both Xavier and I and stops at a reasonable distance.

"Hello buds! What's up?" she says still as bubbly as ever. I tense up as she proceeds.

" What would you like us to help you with Pea?" I ask her using my nickname for her. She smiles and nods towards her friends.

" We need help healing Gorge, ate poisonous berries. We will be off your land as soon as he's fixed up!" she says trying to look nonchalant.

" Okay, but only after you tell me the real reason you are here." I say reading through her lie. She gulps and tries to correct me, lifting her pointer finger. She about to lie again...

" Don't even bother pea, just tell me and I might consider helping more than you have asked." I say seriously and take a step forward. She looks back at a certain girl, who looks unkept, malnourished and helpless.

"Fine, we are running from an alpha." she says. But who? The only Alpha within walkable distance is my Uncle Mike.

" Which Alpha?" I ask her. She stiffens and looks at me with her dull and broken, once bright blue eyes.

"Alpha Mikael." she says her voice cracking. What?

'Uncle Mike, what did you do?'
