Alpha's Rejected Luna

Agony of Motherhood

Agony of motherhood.

Amanda is finding it difficult to get pregnant. Not even a miscarriage to prove she's fertile. Her inability to get pregnant is becoming a major worry for Alpha Donald already. He never bargained for this delay and frustration.

"What the heck is happening in my life right now? What's my offense? Is the moon goddess fighting against my freedom? But she suggested that I go find some teenage girl to break the curse. I don't want to end up like my father I must end this.

I can't continue in this pain and darkness. I need an explanation for this madness,” he muttered succinctly and called his maid to summon Raymond to his room immediately.

“My Alpha, what's with the absurd look on your face? What's troubling you? You summoned my presence whatever troubles you equally affect me.” he showed up, placing both hands behind him.

“How long have we known each other?” he asked sarcastically, narrowing his gaze on Ray.

"I've known you all my life. Even before you emerged as the Alpha. Why the questions? What's going on? Please tell me.”

“Why did you choose to betray what we had? Do you wish death upon me? It doesn't cost me anything to have you locked up for treason. It doesn't matter if I have known you all my life,” he yelled at his BETA as his utterances conveyed wisdom that was beyond Raymond's comprehension.

"After everything you did for me? I'll be an ingrate to harbor such imagination in my head. I can't even hurt a fly and you know that. What makes you think I'd be capable of such? You've known me all your life. We practically grew up together before you emerged as the Alpha of the New Moon Pack. Have I for once behaved awkwardly before?” Raymond defended himself, still eager to fathom why Donaldson said that.

"Stop with the pretense, you pathetic fool. I know you're trying to deny it. Come up, open up to me. It's just you and me here. You know what I'm talking about. You were aware of my predicament, yet you made a travesty of my situation and brought me a log of wood. You brought someone that wouldn't solve my problem. I need answers, Raymond. Start talking now. That's a slap on my face. I should have dealt with you!”

"I'm still confused, my Alpha.

What has she done? This is the first time you're complaining about her."

"She's not pregnant yet, that's what I meant. Did you have anything to do with this? Did you plan this with Jones to extort money from me?" He finally let it out with a scream.

"Patience, my Alpha. We need to give her time. She'll come around. Let's not lose all hope on this.” he assured Donaldson to allay his fear.

"Patience you say? How long will I continue waiting for her to get pregnant? I want results. I've lost all patience in me. I'm curious. I can't wait to see her get pregnant. Why does it take so long? I thought it was supposed to be easy. I'm tired of waiting for eternity. Did you plan this? Donaldson lost his cool and sparked outrage at his BETA.

Astounded by the Alpha's wrath, Raymond was mute and unmoved. For a prolonged silence, he was calm and carefully selected his words to avert the wrath of the Alpha.

"I've got an idea. Trust me, it'll work out. Should we seek the moon guardian's assistance? She might find an answer to our situation,”

"Take her name out of your gutter-infested mouth. She's got absolutely nothing to do with this. Just when I thought you had a better suggestion. Here you go again displaying your stupidity. Don't you have shame? You know what? I want you to go call me Amanda. I have a couple of questions to ask her. She must provide me with some answers.” he commanded. He doesn't believe his predicament requires the intervention of the moon guardian. Somehow, he suspected Amanda might be responsible for her inability to conceive. He paced around his room for minutes, trying to wrap his head around the situation. “Could she be barren? That's not even possible." She dares not. She must conceive." He ponders over the situation.

"Here she is. You requested to see her,” Raymond returned with Lilian a few minutes later.

Alpha Donaldson's gaze flickered at her eyes as he leaned forward to pull her hair, “Hey, you peasant. I don't know what stunt you are pulling on me. But trust me, if you don't get pregnant soon, I'll feed your remains to the vultures. I am a man of few words. I don't entertain suspense either.” He shoved her to the ground and stiffed yet another sigh of frustration at his situation.

Still on the ground, she wept bitterly like a pathetic widow. a

So many questions plagued her mind. Firstly, her wicked Jones whom she trusted tricked and sold her to the cruelest Alpha. And now the Alpha is frantic about her inability to conceive.

"My inability to conceive isn't any fault of mine. Last I checked, you met me as a virgin. Would a virgin be barren? I guess you know the answer to that question. Or is there something you are not telling me?” she clapped back, which resulted in a thunderstorm slap on her face from the Alpha.

"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 these silly games with me.”

"Quite fascinating! 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.

"Raymond, get this leper away from my sight. Ensure she starves for the next few days. That's her punishment for disrespecting me,” he 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,” Raymond responded with a bow and forcefully pulled Amanda by the arm.

She got away from him and rushed out to throw up. Raymond attempted to run after her but was halted by the Alpha, “Let her go. She can't possibly escape under the watchful eyes of the guards. She will come back.”

After throwing up, She returned, looking so pale and staggering. With a move too fast, he gestured to her and examined her body. How long have you been sick?"

"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 at me.

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?” she confessed, looking a bit confused.

"You're pregnant! It's obvious. I can see it in your eyes," he exclaimed In excitement.

"Pregnant? 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, she asked.

"This shouldn't be a shock to you. Of course, you know why you're here. You had just one assignment to 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 granted my wish. Finally! I'm going to be a father soon.” Donaldson jumped for joy and embraced Amanda, knowing he was one step from breaking the curse.
