His Mate, His Heirs : The Alpha King’s Claim

CHAPTER ONE First Person's Perspective _Marie_ Three weeks into the new phase of my life, I found out that I was pregnant. It was something that I couldn't fathom. Other girls have s*x but don't usually get pregnant, why did mine have to be different? Especially on my first try. I wished the ground would crack open and swallow me. What would my mom say when she eventually finds out? What will people say? The society we live in today is so judgmental, how would I survive? These and many more were the questions running through my mind Taking another glance at the pregnancy test, which showed two blue lines, I couldn't help but let the tears that had being welling up in my eyes socket roll down freely on my cheeks I was a girl whose mother had always taught the importance of keeping your legs closed, keeping your dignity till marriage, all her life. She would be very pissed and disappointed in me. The thought of just terminating the pregnancy and pretend like nothing ever happened crossed my mind, but I shoved it back immediately. I couldn't possibly kill my own child I thought I could move on though. In a few weeks or months everything would be back to normal, but I was sorely mistaking as fate had other plans for me A knock came on the door and I wiped off the tears on my face, then threw the pregnancy test into the trash can "Hey Marie, guess what?" with a huge more than normal sigh, I turned over to Sam, my best friend, my only friend actually. She was the one who dragged me to that party last weekend, claiming that I needed to go out and live the best of my life. That's how I ended up in bed with a total and complete stranger. "Are you alright? You look pale and distressed" she said giving me an up to down assessment . I nodded and walked over to my bed. "I am alright" she wasn't convinced "Talk to me Ree, what's happening?" A tear dropped and I told her, I told her everything. She drew me into an embrace, assuring me that everything was going to be just fine. "I shouldn't have gone Sam, I really shouldn't have" I was crying profusely by now while she patted me on the shoulder "I'm sorry I forced you to come, I really am, but we'll push through this together okay? I'll be by your side till the very end" I smiled and hugged her again " Thanks" she nodded. There was silence in the room for a couple minutes, then Sam spoke. "So what are we going to do now? Are you going to tell your mom about it?" I shook my head. "No. Not now, I don't want to see the look of disappointment in her face" I responded. Sam nodded and patted me on the back. "It's alright, I understand" Just as she said those words, the door burst open and Lilian walked in. She had her arms folded across her chest and a smirk plastered on her face. "So... I heard that someone in this room is pregnant" she said and I rolled my eyes "Eavesdropping on people's conversations doesn't speak well of your behavior now, does it Lilian?" I asked harshly. She scoffed and waved . "Oh please! If anyone should be talking to me about good behavior then it certainly shouldn't be you" She responded and my cheeks burned red in embarrassment. "That's by the way though. I don't know about you, but this news is going to make a viral sensation in the school blog, considering the fact that many people know you as the "good girl"" I rolled my eyes at her and just lay back on the bed. As I thought about it, fresh wave of tears rolled down the side of my eyes, this wasn't what I signed up for. It was too much to handle. Sam walks up to her and threatens to post a video of her boyfriend being violent And For some reason, she didn't want that and decided to leave, promising that she wouldn't post anything about me. "You're evil Sam" I said. We both laughed about it. " I should get going now, I have tutorials this afternoon, call me if you need anything okay? " She said and I nodded. I cried some more, till I eventually slept off ~~~~ The sound of vicious knocking on the door woke me up from my sleep. Who could be hitting on the door as though they wanted to bring it down. "What time is It?" I groaned looking at the walk clock, it was almost midnight. I turned around to see my roommate sleeping peacefully like nothing was happening. I sighed and walked to the door. Sam stood there staring at me with wide eyes. I raised a brow, she looked... Scared and instantly, my heart began to race This was the first time in as long as I could remember, that I could see fear in Sam's eyes. "She posted it" Now it was my turn to open my eyes widely in shock. "Wha... What are you talking about?" I asked. She shook her head and drew me into an embrace, "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry I dragged you into this mess, I..." She was saying but got cut by the sound of my ringing cell phone The caller ID read 'Mom' and I felt a huge lump in my throat. My stomach twisted into a knot and I felt watery substance in my eyes. "She knows, Sam. She must have heard. I am doomed, I am doomed" I yelled and fell to the ground. The cell phone kept ringing constantly. That was enough to wake my roommate up. "Are you going to pick up your call or what?" She groaned but I ignored. After some time, I cleaned up my tears and snuffed. She was going to find out anyway. I raised the phone to my ear and withdrew it almost Immediately to keep my ear drums safe. She was screaming from the other end of the phone. "Come home first thing tomorrow Marie" Was all I heard before the line was cut I turned to Sam and she nodded. "She would only get mad for the time being. There's nothing more she could do other than yell and feel disappointed" She was damn wrong. My mom had a LOT to do the next day
