Prologue
Twilight POV
Three years have passed since I last saw him. It was bad enough that I was hurt by my mate. Again. But this time, someone decided that my life wasn't f****d up enough and I was pregnant. Mateless and pregnant at the ripe old age of 20, what every girl dreams of. Note the sarcasm.
In the end, I decided to keep it. Which wasn't really a bad thing because I'd have an heir to succeed me. Plus, I highly doubted that I'd be blessed with a third mate to have pups with because things are supposed to work with your first or second mate and I wasn't keen on being blessed with another one either.
The idea kinda made me sick. And as ridiculous as it sounds, Tis also gave up on the idea of a mate and she was inactive for a whole month. I felt really sorry for her because she was hurt most of all. All my poor wolf wanted more than anything was a mate who'll treat us right, it's not like we were asking for an arm and a leg.
If I wasn't already pregnant, I probably would have just gotten an IVF later on so I'd have pups. I didn't tell anyone the full story, the only thing I said was that things between us didn't work out and that it just wasn't meant to be. The only person who knows is Mitsu and she promised not to tell. My dad too and maybe Etsuko, being an Oracle and all, which also means that she's not allowed to tell anyone.
I love my pack and all but it was kind of irritating receiving all that sympathy, more so from the females. I appreciated the support but one I'm not one to look for people's sympathy, which is mostly why I keep to myself but then again trying to hide my huge belly was practically impossible so yeah and two, give a pregnant lady a break. Believe it or not, my dad helped me out throughout the entire pregnancy and after. As in, guiding me through like he knew exactly what being pregnant was like. It was a little weird but still helpful. After 28 more weeks of what I'd like to call absolute torture, the pup was born. A whole three weeks early, I might add. An impatient little thing, I know and I wonder from who she got it from (note the sarcasm again).
And yes, the pup is a girl. A sweet, adorable, little angel who unfortunately got her looks from her dad except for her eyes and wild hair. I swear, whoever's up there seriously enjoys messing with me. Either way, I loved her more than I thought I would. I felt awed she belongs to me now and I belong to her in a way. Oh and I named her Natsumi. As for Youhei's pup, he came about two months later. The thing about new born babies, though, is that they're cute and all but damn, they can become a nightmare in the blink of an eye. Talk about a wolf in sheep's clothing (No pun intended). Turns out their cuteness is just a defence mechanism for when they stress you out so that you can't stay mad at them for long. And it became worse once she started walking and talking. She went from being sweet little thing to basically being a feral animal.
After a while, Mitsu tried hooking me up with other guys because I didn't have a mark so technically that made me an unmated wolf but I turned each and every one of them down. As I said before, I'm not keen on getting another mate. I've accepted the life of singleness and it's never going to change. I'm already preoccupied with being alpha and raising Natsumi so I don't really have time to go find another other half, no wonder Papa Wolf never remarried. Anyway, even if I did have the time, I still wouldn't.
And no, I didn't tell him that he's a father. I also made Ichiya swear on his life that he wouldn't say anything which Esusko wasn’t too happy when she found out. His parents do know though, only a few weeks before she was born. I figured that they, at least, should know and they do come over from time to time. They promised to keep it a secret even though they tried to convince me otherwise a few times. I couldn't tell Sora because she definitely would've spilled the beans at some point and as for Toshi, I wanted to but I couldn't tell him either because Sora might have forced it out of him. Call me a bitter b***h or whatever, I really don't give a s**t. After all the hell I've been through, it shouldn't be surprising that I've grown bitter over the years. I don't need him at all and want absolutely nothing to do with him. I'm doing fine as a single parent and it's going to stay that way. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Heyo, it’s me again. I just wanted to let you all know that yesterday, I started an ** where I’ll be posting author’s notes, merch stuff (like pics, links, discounts, coupons, new releases and so on) and some of you might have noticed that I also deleted the one shots book and that’s because I’ll be posting the bonus chapters on ** because it’ll be a little easier for me since I used to have that book on four different platforms and I kept losing track of where I updated what. Anyway, the account is @otakuhashira3004 and there are already stuff I posted so be sure to check it out so you don’t miss out. Ya girl finally got herself some fibre so you can expect regular posts and maybe for this book too. Anyway, byeee
