Let Me Go, My Mafia Husband by Paga Slayer

Chapter 488 The Unexpected Surprise *Selena*

**ONE YEAR LATER**

"Congratulations, Luna! You're pregnant!" The doctor's words kept ringing in my mind, filling me with joy as I made my way to my mate, the Alpha King's office, to tell him the good news.

After many tries, I was finally going to have my Alpha's pup. Zander and I had wanted a baby for so long since we had mated. But every time I got pregnant, it ended sadly with heartbreaking miscarriages, losing my precious pups.

This time, when I realized I had missed my periods, I decided to keep it to myself. I didn't want Zander to go through the pain and disappointment of another loss.

I kept my pregnancy hidden from everyone, waiting for the right time. It wasn't until three months had passed that I went for a check-up, hoping for good news. When the doctor confirmed that the baby was growing healthy and strong, tears of happiness flowed from my eyes. I couldn't contain my joy, rushing to share this incredible news with my mate.

I was going to knock on the door, but my hand halted in the air when I heard Avery's voice.

"Why don't you leave her? She doesn't deserve to be your mate. She's weak and wolf-less."

My smile disappeared as my heart sank with uncertainty.

"Not now, Avery. I have to go to the conference. We'll talk about it later," Zander's calm voice replied, leaving me shocked.
