Chapter 1

Liela stares at the test result in disbelief, her ears ring as Amanda's voice comes as if through water-

"Congratulations Luna, the heir to the Blood Oak pack is five weeks old. In PERFECT condition. You are going to be a Mom!"

The only thing going through Liela's mind is: Thank God her gynaecologist also happens to be her best friend, otherwise she won't even have a chance to keep this a secret. She has to keep it a secret, at least until she can figure everything out.

How could she be pregnant? The Alpha doesn't want one, and he has done all the precautions he could. So how could she be pregnant?!!! Liela can't even pinpoint exactly which time went wrong because it happened many times more than usual recently. But that doesn't matter now.

The question Liela needs to answer now is: what to tell Alpha Tarum.

Does she even tell him? If she just takes care of the abortion herself, then he doesn't have to know.

After all, he is not in the pack right now. He is out there looking for HER, as always.

"You don't look too happy," Amanda cups Leila's face worriedly, "are you alright?"

Is she alright? She hasn't been, not a day since she married Tarum. More accurately, not a day since Carmela died for her. Carmela was supposed to be his Luna, not her. She was the one who the rogues took. If only she had died like fate wanted for her, but no, Carmela took her place, and her life has broken into pieces since that day.
