“Now, either you bring the baby’s father to my office, or I’ll send these reports to your parents and the Alpha.
Do you understand me? Now get the f**k out of my office, you filth!”
I recalled the doctor’s harsh words and shivered.
I had left her office an hour ago and was still standing by the road in the cold, hugging myself tightly. I couldn’t bring myself to move or speak to anyone. The humiliation clung to me, heavy and suffocating.
It was my first pregnancy. I was young. Innocent.
In the pack, I had always been known as the quiet, shy, soft-spoken girl, the goody-two-shoes who never stood up for herself.
That was what hurt the most.
The very people who had once told me my softness and innocence would never be my weakness had taken advantage of me.
I wanted to cry.
I stood outside the hospital, my hair tucked into my hoodie, wiping my eyes in a desperate attempt to chase away the tears that wouldn’t stop. They kept returning, and I brushed them away again with my sleeves.
I wore an old knee-length off-white dress under a gray oversized hoodie.
Kaelen’s hoodie, the one he had given me.
It hurt that after everything they had done, I still missed them.
I couldn’t contact them. Summer had started, the academy was on break, and they had blocked me. The training academy sat at the border of our pack where I used to see them every day.
With vacation starting, there was no way to reach them.
Then I remembered the doctor’s threat.
I had to go to the Alphas.
There was no other option.
After searching for nearly an hour, I found a post on social media showing the three Alphas at the birthday celebration of my pack’s Alpha.
I wasn’t invited. No Omega ever was unless they were handling chores or serving drinks.
I stood outside Alpha Ron’s mansion, my legs trembling. I convinced the guard to let me in by showing pictures of Alpha Kaelen, Alpha Darius, and Alpha Lucian on my phone as proof that I knew them.
Inside, people stared at me for being underdressed, but I didn’t care. Worry drowned out everything else.
I found Alpha Ron, who still believed I was close to the three visiting Alphas. When I said I wanted to see Alpha Kaelen , he told me to go to the backyard clearly unwilling to let someone in old clothes ruin the party inside his mansion.
And then Kaelen came out.
He wore a leather jacket, his beautiful eyes shining under the lights but his expression hardened the moment he saw me. He scowled, clearly unhappy.
“What are you doing here?” he snapped. “Did you tell the Alpha you came to see me? Why? When I blocked you, it meant I wanted no connection with you.”
The moment he saw me, he started yelling.
Honestly, I was terrified.
I had never seen him yell at me like that. Kaelen had always been hot-headed and rude to others, but with me, he had always been gentle. That was what made me feel special.
Tonight, everything was different.
To him, I was no different from anyone else.
“I think I’m pregnant.”
The words left my mouth in a whisper.
For a brief second, his anger faded. Shock flashed across his face. He took a step back then quickly straightened, his defenses snapping back into place.
“Why are you telling me?” he said harshly. “Tell the baby’s father.”
As if he didn’t realize he could be the father himself.
“That’s why I came,” I said, my voice breaking though I forced the words out. “To talk to all three of you. The father has to be one of you.”
I knew it was important to tell them tonight.

“What? Me?” he shouted. “How could it be me? Ask Darius. Ask Lucian. Not me. I didn’t do anything. I was careful.”
He lied straight to my face.
None of them had been careful. None of them had used protection.
He stepped back, glaring, then pulled out his phone.
“Darius, get to the backyard now. Bring Lucian too,” he snapped. “You two can deal with this mess it’s not mine.”
I had never seen Kaelen like that. He looked monstrous, veins pulsing, his biceps straining against the leather jacket as if his rage was barely contained.
Terrified, I pressed myself against the wall, my knees weak, my body trembling.
Moments later, Darius arrived.
“What the hell, man? You dragged me out of the party ” He stopped abruptly when his eyes landed on me.
“What’s she doing here?” he asked Kaelen , pointing at me.
Both their faces carried the same look of disgust. The eyes that had once held warmth and affection were gone, replaced by cold indifference.
“Tell him what you told me!” Kaelen shouted.
I flinched.
“I’m pregnant,” I whispered, my voice barely audible as my entire body shook.
Darius’s eyes widened, mirroring kaelen’s stunned expression as the weight of my words settled between them.
Shock and fear flickered across Kaelen’s face.
“It’s not mine. I didn’t do anything,” he snapped, his voice rising as panic crept in. Then he turned sharply, pointing past me. “Lucian was the one with you that night. Ask him!”
Lucian had already stepped into the backyard, having clearly heard everything.
“Why are you blaming me?” Lucian shouted, rushing forward and jabbing a finger in my direction. “How do we even know how many men she’s been with after us?”
Now all three of them stood before me, each towering well over six foot five, their massive frames closing in.
I was just one small, trembling girl.
Their words, their tones sharp and cruel struck me like slaps, snapping me awake from the illusion I had been living in.
Delusions.
I had mistaken my crush on those Alphas for something real. What a disappointment I must have been to them.
“You’re questioning my character?” I shouted at last, anger breaking through my fear. “You know it was only the three of you. No one before. No one after.”
Before I could even catch my breath, Kaelen slammed his fist against the wall beside my head.
The sound echoed, sharp and terrifying. I flinched violently, pressing myself against the cold stone, too stunned to move.
“Don’t you f*****g raise your voice at me,” he warned, his tone dark and dangerous.
I understood immediately that the next punch might not miss.
Kaelen leaned closer, his finger jabbing toward my face, his shadow swallowing me whole.
“But what do we do now?” he demanded coldly. “What kind of mess have you dragged us into?”
“…what kind of trouble is she dragging us into?” Lucian muttered.
He reached out and gripped Graham’s arm, pulling him back before things could escalate further. Then all three of them turned their attention to me again, their gazes cold and assessing.
“If you don’t believe me, I can get a DNA test,” I said.
My voice was steady this time. There was no hesitation, no doubt. I knew what I was saying was true.
For a brief moment, something shifted in their expressions. Realization dawned slowly—one of them had to be the father of my child.
They stepped away from me and formed a small circle, whispering among themselves. I couldn’t hear their words, but the low, urgent tones made my stomach twist.
Then they broke apart.
They sent Darius forward first, with Kaelen and Lucian following closely behind him.
Darius approached slowly, his hands shoved deep into his pockets. He stopped a few steps away from me and looked down, his expression unreadable.
The words he spoke next carved themselves into my memory forever.
"What do you think about an abortion?"
