KATHERINE“W-hat?! Of course not!” I cracked a nervous laughter, still hoping it was a joke. How could I be so dumb? Gosh, it hurts a part of me when I felt the guards stepping really far away from us, in the I-told-you way. “But you're outside.” He said in his usual grumpy way, “And you have a baby in your stomach, young lady.” My knees turned weak. I regret never forcing myself to sleep. I shouldn't have batted an eye when he was yet to arrive home. He's a powerful Hybrid, after all. Nothing could have happened to him. I just had to sneak myself into his bad book again. “I thought how you hadn't arrived wasn't normal so I came out. I was just about to head back inside.” I mumbled and I could see anger flashing through his composed face. Great, I just annoyed him. I turned around to leave since it sounded like a logical move and the best thing to do. “You should know what happens in case anything bad happens to the child.” I paused. I couldn't see his face but I knew he was s
KATHERINE My silence was deadly frustrating and not like I could do anything. I have seen many unbelievable things but this just doesn't fall in the same category. Instead, it's rather shocking. They can't be here from me. For goodness's sake, they are up to twenty men. No fucking way, he himself doesn't have that much men following him everywhere it goes. I'm sure I've set a record… the first powerless omega to have so many guards. It sounds so ridiculous to my hearing that I almost cringed. “They will be staying with you from now on.” I heard the voice come from behind me and I immediately knew whom it was. I was a little dubious at first when she told me what was happening, simply because no one would hear that and not find it extremely crazy too. “And why is that?” King Derek was a reputable man, known far and wide. I don't understand why he would want to waste his precious time on me. From all what I have seen, he never set his mind on something only to backtrack later. “I
KATHERINE“Wow, the dress looks so beautiful.” “I know right? This is just one of the privileges of being your friend.” Hearing Marina respond so excitedly, a smile formed on my face. Her wardrobe has just been changed, she was given a new room also, but she insisted on staying together with me. Derek must have been disappointed there would be no more sneaking into my room. “In fifty years to come, I still wouldn't be able to afford a dress worth this much fortune, talk less of having over a hundred different of it in my closet like I do now.” She boosted and we both chuckled. “That must mean you own me a lot.” I teased her and she sighed, caressing my shoulder. “But you're not getting anything, not even a penny.” Meanwhile, after getting done with helping her arrange the dresses, time came for the doctor's appointment. I was informed it would be a twice in a month thing, and since I was carrying the pack's heir, there's nothing I can do but comply. When doctor Marina arrived,
KATHERINE “I repeat, an Omega should be the last person to carry an Hybrid's child.” Nothing could have prepared me for the dreaded words that came out of her mouth, not even the fact she's saying the glaring truth. “He knew that but still picked me, the said Omega. Can I leave now?” I ignored her horrible words and said abruptly, not giving her a chance to ask any more questions. She has such a nerve, one that made tears fall down my cheeks, and I quickly wiped it away and sank into the nearest chair when I reached my room. I was trying so hard to keep myself in check when Marina entered. She closed the door and stooped before me.“That shouldn't be worth your headache, remember people will always talk.” She began and I replied, my voice trembling, “That doesn't mean everyone has to be so mean. Exactly from someone I don't even know.” I had thought things would finally be peacefully. Apparently, I was wrong. I have been hearing this truth with my ears right from the age of sixt
KATHERINE “Get in.” “No.” I heard my voice tremble and amidst the heavy downpour of the rain, I stared at him defiantly. I can tell just how stupid I sounded but this was the only way I can get the rest of the cruel, particularly harsh words away I have been getting all my life from my body. I hope at least I can cleanse myself of everyone's hatred. “Get in!” He grunted once again from the door. Derek is losing it, I can see his men restraining from lunging at me and shoving me inside because of my state. “No!” I eyes him carelessly, my suffering that would still follow suit smeared at the back of my head as a heavy reminder. “Now!” “You can't make me—” I actually laughed, avoiding eye contact with him as my cheeks heated. Before I could turn back around and know what's happening, two men had already gotten behind me, my legs kicking in protest as they forced me inside. And not just anywhere but inside his room. I stood there and watched water drip from my cloth
KATHERINE “This is really all that she’s worth? I guess I’m just going to starve this morning.”I hadn’t slept a wink. All night I sat up in bed deep in thought yet, this just had to happen when I was about catching some sleep. No one was knocking on my door but the certain voice was speaking so loudly outside the door and I know it’s intentional. I acted as if I heard nothing and scrambled out of bed, to get into my morning routine. I can feel a slight bludge in my stomach and I faced the varsity mirror, raising the hem of my shirt up to take a look and it was true. And it’s not too soon since it’s now a month old. “Hey, breeder! Show your face, I know you’re in there.” She hits her fists against the door countless of times to a pound of exhaustion and seeing I was still not going to respond, she kicked at the door and this time with her feets. This lady just doesn’t know how stressful yelling is. It’s so convenient for her. Then again no reason why she wouldn’t be so relaxed wh
KATHERINE My eyes opened, the ray of sunlight blinding my vision. The first thing I did was try to move my legs but nothing was happening. I couldn’t move. I looked down and that was when I realized I have been tied down… by Cassandra?! What the hell? I screamed, fought against whatever I must have been tied with and could have kicked my legs in the air too but it was all effortless. That’s how tight she dared tired me down, knowing fully when I’m pregnant.“OMG!” I gasped, all of a sudden when it suddenly clicked. I looked down at my stomach and breathed out loud when I saw she was merciful enough to leave my stomach out of the darn bondage. There’s a chance I would get out of here here but there’s barely an assurance I wouldn’t die at Derek’s callous hands if anything happens to the child in my stomach. And this is my room. I was tied up in my room and nobody had even thought of coming in since. Was that how less important I was to everyone? Is this how I’m going to spend the
KATHERINE If I heard him well, he means I had allowed myself to be ridiculed- the Cassandra incident- with a royal blood in my stomach. Which to him means; I wasn’t the one who had been trampled upon but his child, something he clearly disliked.How did he know? He wasn’t home during my argument with Cassandra and definitely wasn’t around when she locked and died me up either. If there was surveillance cameras in here, I would have known. Could it be there’s someone in hiding report all of my activities to him. Gosh, I knew this was going to happen. I was firm with Cassandra thinking that will get her off my neck but it only made her more persistent and now, here I am again. “It won’t happen again, I promise.” I stammered a reply, holding tightly unto my string of hope. Not like he's ever heard any pleas of mine but there's always a first time. Lying won’t solve anything, since he already knows the truth. It will only escalate things. “Even if you can’t fight for yourself, you sh
{THE END OF THE BEGINNING}THREE MONTHS LATER~“I’ve successfully put him to sleep and you know what? I’m exhausted.” Two months ago, the pack welcomed an heir, and not just a mere heir, a handsome one. Two months ago was the happiest day in Hybrid Derek’s life and that’s because he finally gets to see his son after mine arduous waits. On the other hand, Katherine, the pack’s Luna, was happy with their child’s birth into the world but all her life, she’s never been so stressed. Especially since the pup is clingy. But like Lyra had told her, it’s normal for babies to be clingy with their parents. Then there’s the sleepless nights, which is the hardest. Although Derek has been busy himself with the pack affairs, he was always there to help her whenever he could. However despite the troubles that comes with having a baby, every time she looked into her son’s eyes, she knew that she wouldn’t trade this life for anything.“I’ll go and prepare your lunch then.” Lyra offered but Kather
Third Person’s Pov“No, I made the right decision by letting her go.” Katherine and Beta Edward walked back inside, “I’m sure she dare not show her face again, anywhere near this pack.” She added. If it was up to Edward, he wanted to dig Eva a grave but the Luna decided forgiving her was better and he had to let her go. “This should be between me and you please.” As the gate locked behind them, Katherine reminded him. “The Hybrid shouldn’t know. If he does, he’s going to find her and hunt her down without telling no one.” She doesn’t want the Hybrid to get blood on his hands again. “Alright ma’am, I won’t.” Edward reluctantly agreed and she bided hun goodnight before departing to her room. As she passed the hallway, she couldn’t find Derek and was even more surprised that even until she got to her door, she was no where to be seen. Didn’t he just say he was going to wait for her? Or could he have gone to his room to sleep? “If I don’t see him, I won’t be able to catch a sleep.”
Third Person’s Pov‘Night Walk.’ Two words so forbidden that Derek doesn’t ever want to ear, most especially from his mate but it did came out of her mouth and he has never been that conflicted. He’s concluded within himself to always grant her anything, anything as long as it’s in his capacity and even though this one also was, he wants to make sure of her security first. She would soon deliver and a late night walk should be any of her cravings at her in a time like this. “No, you can’t go, I’m sorry.” He sighed and had to turn his back away. Katherine sighed too. It’s as if she knew already that he wasn’t going to agree. Her mate is only going to agree to such dangerous adventure of hers if only she casts him in a spell and that’s over her dead body. “There’s a really big heat, I don’t know whether you’re feeling it or not but I couldn’t even stay in my room, for real. It felt suffocating and since there will basically be a better atmosphere outside, I just want to be out t
KATHERINE My delivery date was fast approaching and today, it’s been scheduled I’d be going for the last few necessary purchase needed for the incoming baby. Even though it’s Lyra that I’m going with, they didn’t hinder my excitement. When I woke up this morning, I took a clean bath and prepared for myself for the shopping ahead. That too, making sure I’ve eaten. The Hybrid king doesn’t want to hear that I mistakenly skipped a meal. He’s going to lecture me throughout the day and by the time he would finish, I would be in regret for not forcing myself to eat. The door to my room opened and Lyra peeked in. “Are you done?”“Yes, let’s go.” I replied, snatching my purse from the stand. “No, you’re not going with me. The Hybrid King said he’ll be the one to take you.” She said when I reached her at the doorway. “Really? Are you sure?” I asked. She nodded and I sure wasn’t expecting that. I followed her outside and met the car already waiting. I got into the back seat and bowed my
KATHERINE A WEEK LATER~THE CROWNING~Last night, Derek marked me and that made me extremely happy.I wasn’t expecting he was going to do that anytime soon. Especially at his clan, not his pack. When I couldn’t keep it in anymore, I asked him why the next morning just as we were about leaving. He said and I quote: “When I told you any of their decisions on you won’t change my perspective of you, I wasn’t lying and just so you can rely on me, I had to mark you that same night to reassure you that I’m all yours now, just as you are mine, forever.” I didn’t let him see it but I had gushed. Even as I stand before the vanity mirror, I found myself blushing, forgetting I wasn’t the only one in the room. Suspicious Lyra met my eyes in the mirror and I quickly composed myself, my expression turning serious within a twinkle. “I really don’t need that much makeup, okay? If you feel we are going to arrive at the hall late, just dress me up and let’s go now.” I told her, rubbing my hands to
KATHERINE{SEX NIGHT 2 }“Shit!” Derek rasped a curse. “All this wetness for me?” “Yes.” I responded affirmatively and I’m not sure whether or not he heard but he must have gotten the message when I nodded my head, because he didn’t stop. His fingers moved up and down my wetness and he coated it around his finger. Isn’t it weird how I can basically feel the butterflies swimming in the pit of my bulged stomach? “If I continue like this, if my fingers keep working around your wetness, you do know I’m going to lose control right? I'm going to. Are you ready to watch the room tremble to a point of almost falling down?” He asked me. I knew he was just trying to warn me but if only he knew that only fueled my desperation. If I wanted him to stop halfway, I wouldn’t have let him began in the first place. His thumb started circling my clit, almost bringing me to my knees.“Yea! Yes, Derek. I’m ready for you.” My back arched.Stupid of me, I forgot I hadn’t answered him. “I need a full
KATHERINE { SEX NIGHT}Derek growled, and before I could process how deep it sounded deep inside of me, his lips were on mine as he settled onto me. He kissed me, he was kissing me- as if he’d been hungry for it since forever. He was kissing me so deliriously like a bear would and when his body came against mine, I felt him desperately seeking for me to give myself to me and it was as if he knew I would do anything for him. I parted my lips and allowed him ravage each part of my mouth while his palms simply yet powerfully roamed down my sides, not stopping until he’s reached just below my waist. My hands instinctively went to his chest and I didn’t expect it to be so warm and solid at the same time. But it was, and just for me. My heart almost flew out of my chest as it drummed in my ribcage and I hummed in shock when behind my fingertips, Derek’s heart also beater the same. And that, as if he knew, that glued him to press more into me with his hips and I could have ran mad when
KATHERINE “Do you know how intimidating those people can be?” As Lyra prepared my bath water, she asked me. “Do you?” I threw at her the same question in curiosity. It’s been on my mind ever since and this morning, I decided that it’s time I stop ignoring it. I’m scared of what I was going to meet there. Although Derek hasn’t spoken about it again but I know that before his three brothers would came again to come and torment every strings connected to my life, Derek would have taken us there. I had to tell someone about it and I chose Lyra. I couldn’t let the curiosity keeping eating at me. “No, but Hybrids are known to be more powerful than the Alphas and normally, the Hybrids clans have to be really strict about who they are taking in to their midst. So basically, you should expect them to be intimidating. If they get to like you, you would then be free from their gawking eyes.” She stated, stepping back for me once the tub was filled with enough water. And it all made sense.
KATHERINE Lyra came back in with the letter sent by Bryson, and I reached out for it. Lyra left and I started unwrapping the envelope. Bryson had told me he was going to be writing to me but I was the first person who wrote to him. I realized I couldn’t keep him in the dark even if he was gone now so I told him about yesterday’s event with Derek and how he accepted me as his mate heartily. After I’ve unwrapped the packaging around it, I stared at it for a while, deciding whether to open it now or not. Right before I could actually get down to it, I heard Derek call out for me. Just the voice I’ve been longing to hear since I woke up. With a smile on my face, I pushed back the chair I was seated and walked out of my room. It was strange how I immediately felt like something was amiss but I didn’t stop descending the stairs. I quickened my pace only to freeze when I saw something or rather someone that shouldn’t be here. “You think lying to me that you have a mate now is going to
