FREYA:

Why did it seem that asking me whether I was pregnant or not was one of the most difficult questions someone had thrown at me?

A long silence passed between us and the only thing that was heard was the music from the party.

My breathing labored.

And being asked by my ex’s uncle definitely did not enter my mind. Would I tell him the truth? This was only our first meeting, right? After this, our paths won't cross again. They would never see me again since I would go to the human world and hide there.

“Are you with a child?” Alpha Percy asked when I did not answer his question. “I am asking you a question, lass.”

He continued staring at my stomach.

I had a flat one and there was no baby bump, yet. I could deny it with all I could. This man may be my mate, but it did not mean that I was supposed to be honest with him, especially if I did not trust him.

For me, all men are great liars and were only good at fucking women. Like my ex-mate.

Protectively, I clutched my sto

  • A Night With My Ex's Uncle    07: Aunt

    FREYA: This was the uncle's fault. He was the reason why Dominic caught me. I had never entertained him in the first place. Now, look at the mess that was unfolding. If I just ran away and never bothered to talk to Alpha Percival, Dominic wouldn't have found out that I was here, trying to run away from him and everyone in this pack. "Uncle Percival," Dominic declared when he was out of a trance. His eyes looked at me and then back to his uncle. Jealousy crossed his eyes before it disappeared. He did not have the right to be jealous in the first place of what he did to me. My blood boiled in anger. I felt my ex-mate tried to push off the wall that I had built around him. When we were in a relationship, Dominic could easily invade my mind whenever he pleased. But he could not do it anymore. After what he did to me. 'Why are you with the alpha?’ Dominic asked through our mind link. I wished I could kick him out of my mind. 'We came here to have some privacy. What else?

  • A Night With My Ex's Uncle    08: Too Much

    FREYA: 'Freya, you don't know what kind of man my Uncle is,' Dominic retorted, still using our mind link. 'The rumors surrounding him were not baseless.' 'I don't need your concern, Dominic. If I meant so much to you before, you should have never hurt me in the first place.' 'I'm sorry, Freya.' There. The apology that I had been waiting for which nearly melted my heart, but when I remembered how he fucked that woman and forgotten about me, his mate, my anger returned. 'A simple sorry is not enough,' I replied and drew a shaky breath. "Let's go," Alpha Percival ordered. I let him guide me as we went to the parking lot. Dominic could only stare at me as Alpha Percival guided me towards the awaiting car. I could feel his burning stare at the back of my head. The cold wind kissed my bare skin. I shivered. Seeing I was cold, Alpha Percival suddenly threw his jacket around my shoulder. I glanced over at him and our gaze locked. "You don't have to look at me like

  • A Night With My Ex's Uncle    09: Are You Into Men?

    FREYA: The child who was not even born was saving me right now. Or was it really saving? Would it be better if Alpha Percival just rejected me right now? “I don't need your charity.” “Oh, you need it, child.” Child? Do I look like a child? “I'm not a child.” “Whatever. To me, you're nothing but a child who committed the mistake of loving a foolish mate who could not even stick his dick to his pants.” I hated that he was right. I hated how it was spot on. “Let’s face it. What can you do to your child? Do you have all the means to take care of your child? Do you have the money for that?” “I don't.” “I'm your last bet.” “Why are you doing this?” I asked once again. "You heard me already. You're my charity case." He pitied me. But at least someone had given a little of their mercy. The last thing I would expect was from Alpha Percival. "What would you tell your pack?" He gave me a half-shrug. "That you're the Luna. My mate. In name only. I already told you earl

    FREYA Alpha Percival was plainly disappointed. “Is that the only question that you could ask, child?” “Why don’t you answer my question, Uncle Percival?” I mocked, using the name she did not want to hear. He leaned in and I leaned back, not wanting to be close to him. His scent was already making me drunk. I sucked in a breath and extended my hand, in an attempt to push him away. The moment our skin touched, I felt bolts of electricity run between us. He felt it too, and was surprised a bit, but he did not back away while my hands rested on his broad chest. Damn it. Why was my heart racing even if he glaring at me like this? Imagine my other reaction if he was not only staring at me but kissing me. My eyes darted back to his lips. His lips were red. He was not smoking? It's better not to. For his health. "What if I am not straight?" he whispered, making me shiver. "Will you be hurt or disgusted?" My breathing labored and suddenly, three people inside the

    Note: Autumn's name had been changed into FREYA. Thanks. -------------FREYA:Alpha Percival was not that bad. He reminded me so much of an old man who only wanted the best for his grandchildren. But I could not deny the fact that being around him made my heart at ease. It felt as if whatever things that life may throw at me, it would not faze me at all just because I had this man beside me.Especially if he was laughing like this. The wrinkles around his eyes as he shook his shoulders from laughing was making my heart flutter.Flutter? Wait. Why would my heart flutter? I was just rejected for crying out loud and on top of that, I was carrying someone else’s child! The least thing I could do was admire someone who could pass as my father.‘Alpha Percival is not that old,’ my wolf commented. ‘His age makes him even wiser and that’s a plus which Dominic could not take away. I like him for us. He is mature enough to help us raise the baby. He will be a good dad.’A good dad for someon

    FREYA: If I would laugh by now, Leon would be deeply disappointed. So the only thing I did was close my mouth and let the alpha do the talking. Weariness started pulling into me. I just wanted to crawl in a warm bed and forgot about Dominic's betrayal.Leon paled. "Baby?"Could I have a camera now so that I could take a pic of his reaction? "She's my mate, Leon. She will be the Luna of the pack. I will be making an announcement soon.""And she's pregnant?" he asked in disbelief. They were able to identify right away that I was pregnant but my idiotic mate did not. If I stayed a couple of days later, would Dominic be able to identify? Was it a big problem that I was pregnant? This was my body to begin with. "I presume it is your child since you're willing to jeopardize your reputation in the pack?"His reputation? What kind of reputation did he have? I bet they had the same reputation as Dominic. After all, they shared the same blood.Alpha Percival suddenly snaked around his arm

    FREYA:Alpha Percy stared at me for a long time, as if he was debating something on his mind.“Treating you a slave when we were alone and treating you as my Luna when others are watching is complicated to do. I don't want to forget and mix my treatment, so you don't need to dictate what I will do or not, woman.” “Don't you think it's dangerous to treat me nicely?” I asked.“Dangerous in what way?”“You might fall for me.”His eyes furrowed before my statement sunk into his brain. He chuckled. “Me? Falling for you? Do you know what you are saying? In my eyes, you're nothing but a child and my nephew's mate. So no. I would never ever fall for you.”Pain crossed my chest for some unknown reason. Was I hurt by what he said? Or did he hurt my pride? “You're hurting my pride, Alpha Percy. Why would you not fall for me? Don't get me wrong. I don't want you to fall for me, but saying with finality that you will never fall for me, is another thing. How could you be sure?”“I just know.

    FREYA:My heart skipped a bit. Damn it. Why was he like this? Why was he treating me like this? This was totally not what his nephew would do. He was too different from my immature ex-mate whose only job seemed to get on all the women's panties. His appetite for sex was so high that sometimes, I could not keep up. But because I loved Dominic, I forced myself.And look at the result of his libido. He got me pregnant. ‘It was not only Alpha Dominic's fault, but yours too,’ my wolf said. ‘You willingly spread your legs to him.’I mentally groaned. ‘I hated your mouth,’ I stated. ‘At least you should be sensitive.

    FREYA:I kept on staring at the alpha as if he was turning into a demon while processing.I shifted my weight from foot to foot. Married? When did that agreement come? There was no way I would marry this alpha, right? Besides, why would he marry a slave and omega like me? I got it that we were mates, but at this age, mates were always rejected, especially if your significant other was not satisfied with you. The most important question of all was, why did he suddenly blurt things that we never discussed? Was he out of his mind? Was he serious? Or did something change?Alpha Percival looked down at me as if he was waiting for me to open my mouth and then spill out what was running in my head after the announcement. I was not the only one who was shocked. The people, too. Especially Gerry. I could see that he was not happy knowing I was the future Luna of this pack. There were a lot of things I wanted to say. Lot of questions I wanted to blurt out. But chose not to. This was not t

    FREYA:Alpha Percival. How did I explain this to him? He was bold and was completely opposite to Dominic. He was fearless and shameless. And responsible, too. If not, he would not be taking any responsibility for fathering my own child. And this. Announcing that I was his Luna and mate to the crowd despite my social status was the best thing that he could do.Dammit.I was not ready for this. When I was with Dominic, our relationship was discreet but when it comes to Alpha Percival, we had no relationship, but he was going all out. Even if this was nothing but an agreement between sides, it looked real to me. "Wouldn't you clap your hands for the Luna?" Alpha Percival asked when the people only stared at me. “They don't have to,” I whispered to the alpha while tugging his clothes. He spared me a glance and closed my mouth. What was wrong with telling him that a clap was no longer necessary? Their reaction? Could not blame them for that. I was even surprised even if he already gav

  • A Night With My Ex's Uncle    15: Announce

    FREYA:Alpha Percival did not answer right away and instead met my confused stare with a glare."What if I impregnated five women? Is that an issue?" he asked with pure confusion.My mouth gaped open. Was he for real? ‘What if taking a lot of wives is the tradition in this pack?’ my wolf asked. Damn.Wait. Why was I affected like this? It was not like I wanted to take him as my husband. No way. It won’t be happening like that. Using my fingers, I counted five and showed it to him. "That's a lot," I commented. “How were you able to give them time? All of them?”My eyes gazed at his face and down to his feet, making him raise his eyebrows.“What's that look supposed to mean?”“You sure have a lot of time, Alpha Percival. Do you think it’s okay for them if I was an additional? You know. Not all women are quite open-minded if another woman is squeezed into your relationship. Given my situation right now. I need to have some plan b, right away if the alpha kicked me out of this pack.
