Carrying The Alpha's Pup

Chapter 5

He stopped her at the grand grate of the pack. She took her bag with her and exited the car. She stood for a while, staring back at the pack.

"Are you sure you want to do this, Miss?"The driver asked.

"It's my choice." She simply said, before walking to the gate. He made sure she had crossed out of the walls of the pack, before zooming off to the pack house.

She stood outside the gate, thinking of where to go next. She had lost her parents and her home two years ago, her relatives didn't care about her. She decided to go to the Moon Night Pack since she had heard good things about the pack.

They do accept outsiders into their homes and treat them like they are a part of them. But the only problem is the pack is covered with wood since that was the only way to keep them hidden from the rival packs.

While she made her way to the Moon Night Pack, she felt her legs growing lumpy. She couldn't make it further, her head was pounding with alarm sounds that made it difficult for her to concentrate. She decided to take a break and continue later.

She sat by a tall tree, leaning her back against its stem. She closed her eyes, hoping the pounding headache would stop before evening. Not quite long after she had closed her eyes, she passed out.

Alpha Nathan was playing with his best friend Beta Alex, they had gone hunting since he had nothing to do. While hunting, he perceived a strange smell of a human, one that didn't belong to his pack.

Alex noticed the sudden pause, he asked. "What's wrong?"

"Do you smell that?" He asked.

"Smell what?" Alex asked back since he wasn't perceiving anything.

"There's a stranger in our land." He sniffed hard. "The scent isn't far. Follow me." Alex followed him as he dashed towards the direction of the scent.

As they got to the source of the scent, Nathan made a stop. "We're close." He said, sniffing in as much air as his lungs could continue.

"Nathan," Alex called.

He turned to see Alex pointing in a direction. Nathan's gaze followed the direction of his finger only to see Diana lying on the floor. "How did she get here?" Alex asked, his voice low.

"I don't know," Nathan replied, squatting before Diana to check her pulse.

"How is she?"

"She's alive, but her pulse is low." He said. "We need to take her to the pack immediately."

"Wait, Nathan." Alex stopped him. "We don't know who she is, we can't take her into our home just like that. She might be a spy or something, or even a wanted lady. Let's not put ourselves and likewise the pack's life at stake because of some kind of random girl."

"Don't worry, we aren't putting anyone in trouble. As soon as she wakes up, we'll find out what and who she is." He takes her into his arms, dashing back to the pack house.

He kept her in the dungeon just in case Alex was right about what he said. He sent the royal doctor to check on her before she woke. Nathan was curious about the strange girl, he desperately wanted her to wake up so he would get to know about her.

Seeing her lying unconscious in the woods caught his attention. She was beautiful and had this sweet scent that still won't leave his nostrils.

Alex walked in to find him pacing his office, restless. He knew the only reason why he'd be pacing was because of the girl. "She'll be fine." He said from the door.

"Who?" He asked, pretending not to know what Alex meant. "No, I'm not worried about her. After all, the doctor is treating her."

"It's obvious how pretty good you are when lying, but you should know by now, that I ain't a kid anymore." He shuts the door, walking to the couch to make himself comfortable.

"Why would I be thinking about her?" He sat on the same couch Alex sat on. "I'm just curious as to how she got to know about this pack."

Meanwhile, the doctor had left for the dungeon to check on Diana. She had woken up a few minutes ago. She had no idea where she was. On seeing the doctor, she had hope of finding her answers.

"What's this place?" She asked him. "How did I get here?"

"The Alpha found you in the woods."

Diana thought the Alpha the doctor had meant was Alpha Bryson. She shook her head, tears almost rolling down her cheeks. "No. No. No, please take me out of here."

"Calm down Miss, you're in the Moon Night Pack." On hearing this, she calmed down. "Don't you know it's risky to walk in the woods alone?"

"I lost my home, so I had no place to go." She lied.

"You're lucky the Alpha found you on time, who knows where you'd have been by now. Well, my name is Doctor John, what about you?"

"Diana Simpson."

"Congratulations, Ms. Simpson, you're five weeks pregnant."

Diana acted surprised, nodding her head. "How is my baby, doctor?" She asked.

"Your child is doing fine and healthy too." He replied with assurance. "I'll get back to you later, try not to stress yourself." He left Alpha Nathan's room to report to him. He got to his room, offering a knock on the door. "Your majesty, it's me, Doctor John."

"Oh, come in." He permitted. "How is she?" Nathan didn't realize how desperate he was when he asked the doctor about Diana's health.

"She is awake and healthy, Your Majesty."

Nathan sighed in relief.

"While treating her, I noticed she is carrying another being in her." Said the doctor.

"What does that mean?" Nathan asked, a bit confused.

"She is pregnant. I think that's the reason why she passed out."

"Pregnant?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"This might be a trap, Nathan, we can't have the girl stay with us." Alex opposed.

As much as Nathan wants to protect his pack, he can't afford to lose the girl.
