Alpha CEO’s baby mama Contacted by her family.
Rose's POVTrepidation filled me as I stayed unmoving. My breaths had halted until there was no sound. Nothing aside from the constant rhythmic vibration that emanated from the phone.The question of whether I should answer or reject the call was moot, especially when the core question in my mind remained unanswered .Because this was the first time I had seen this number. My contacts had reduced to very few, limited to Kayla, Jade and anyone else within the pack. So who could be calling now?It was the first thought that left me still.Was it the dankehs? No matter how ludicrous it sounded, I was only attacked yesterday. I couldn't take any chances.It could also be someone who dialed the wrong number. That thought was a lot more assuring compared to the last, yet I couldn't still be sure.Finally, after what seemed like an eternity of ringing, the call ended. The silence brought in relief seeping through me as I finally exhaled.Maybe I didn't have to confront it after all.I was ac
Alpha CEO’s baby mama The prodigal mother.
Rose's POV.“Okay, then… Bye.” I ended the call to Kayla, letting out a sigh.It had taken time to move past an inch the moment my mo… the moment Kate called. The first person I called was Jade. It served as a good distraction as the reminder of Adian's words earlier prompted me to be more careful. That flew out of the window moments after when she suddenly apologized.Flashback. “I'm so sorry. For the lack of communication… everything,” Jade apologized, leaving me speechless.“I've just been pissy from work, with no sense of relief. It's been a hard set of weeks, and I've been on edge." She said.As I processed her words, all, I sighed in relief. No matter how kind Jade could be, she was human and was living a life with hardships that I wasn't dealing with. Perhaps her words toward me back then were said out of her frustration.It didn't help that I had all these matters and rarely approached her either.Adian's words came to me, but I decided to push it all away for now. This wou
Alpha CEO’s baby mama Possessiveness.
Rael's POVFuck. I cursed in my head.Fuck it all.I hated this. Hated myself for what I was doing. Hater the fact that I couldn't tell her why…The mission - the logical part of me still supplied, but then again, fuck the mission.After she told me everything, I held her without hesitation. She felt fragile in my arms, as though she was on the verge of breaking down. And now hearing everything she had to say made me pull her even tighter.I had lost my parents early in circumstances that were out of our control, but she lost hers whilst she still had them. I was surrounded by my pack. By both Adian and Kayden as my brothers, but she had nobody with her.She wasn't the fragile person I once believed I could brush off. She was stronger in ways even I wasn't sure of.I thought back to the pictures I had seen months ago, after investigating her. The reminder of the older woman whom she gained her red hair from.Had she not been her mother, I would have rended her to pieces. Found a way t
Alpha CEO’s baby mama The three friends.
Rael’s POVI slipped down onto the cold grass. The atmosphere did nothing to stifle my heat or thoughts.Kayden was already waiting there, drinks in hand. To my surprise, Adian zoomed in, waving right before he sat down.“He decided to tag along,” Kayden shrugged, unsurprised.Of course, he would. I scoffed, laying fully on the grass beside them in silence.We were deep in the forest, in an area we were used to meeting when we needed to talk. I could barely remember the last time we had done this. A year? No, more than that. Far before the dankehs were ever a problem.After this night though, I was tired of holding things back. Especially to the only ones who truly knew the extent of my secrets. The stakes which I had foolishly put myself under.Once, we were just boys, sitting outside this forest to play. Long after my parent’s death, we had met up here, even after Kayden’s mating. Now, with the weights we had on our shoulders, we drank beer that couldn't affect us under the moonless
Alpha CEO’s baby mama A new lead.
Rael’s POVOnly the sound of flesh slapping against flesh filled the air. All the other screams had died down to nothing.The man, the dankeh, who once stood confident, now quivered in his chains. His face was bloodied up and bruised, matching my hands.My right hand stung with every blow - unfortunately he had tried resisting at first by biting my hand. His resistance hadn’t lasted but I kept on going. “Please.” He cried out, blood streamed down his face.He had stood confident after I came in, spouting out facts he knew of me. I could tell then that he wasn’t just one of the lackeys.This man knew something, and I was going to get it out of him.It wasn’t even the way that he resisted all the questions that pushed me to this point. No, it was something much simpler. It was her.“She was so trusting, you know.” He had the audacity to laugh right after. "If you gave me a few seconds more, I would have ripped out her throat then and there. How would you have liked that, Rael Allston?”
Alpha CEO’s baby mama The truth about her mother.
Rose's POVIt had taken me three days.Three days of trying to pretend like everything was normal. Three days of contemplation. Three days of barely seeing Rael.Three days since I had heard my mother's voice after a long time.I had almost faced death with Rael so near and for how long this Dankehs would come after me, I may face it tomorrow and the days to come. Even though most of the time Rael was always with me, what about on the occasions where he wasn't there? What if he wasn't present during the next attack?What if next time, I didn't even have the chance to forgive her? What if I regretted it? What if she was waiting for me to respond, hoping, only to see the news of my death on a television screen?The thoughts glowed through my mind like an unending fountain. Morbid thoughts that gave me paranoia.Three days of deep thinking, I had finally made my decision.If she wanted to talk, and wanted to reconcile with me, I had to give her a chance. For myself. I deserved that at le
Alpha CEO’s baby mama Promise me.
Rose's POVThe first person I noted was a man I didn't know. Wouldn't recognize. He was an older man, donning black hair with streaks of gray. No doubt it was her husband.But the second person wasn't too hard to figure out.I turned to face her. She looked nothing like me, with her blonde hair and green eyes. When I was younger, I was told that I gained my appearance from my father's side, but that was something I could never confirm. Whoever my relatives were, were absent throughout my life, and neither of my parents stuck around for me to find out anyways.That blonde hair looked more bleached, stringy curls I inherited from her were short. There were wrinkles on her face, eyeballs that I couldn't recall seeing. She even looked slightly thinner.My mother wasn't the same. She was older and frailer. I could see that from the shock written in her face.My mother….I shook from the rage.She contacted me, only tried to 'reconcile' with me for money.I stepped into the place, only to s
Alpha CEO’s baby mama Wanting the truth.
Rael's POV“She's not okay,” Adian told me.His face was grim and narrowed, trying to hold back his anxiety.I had to look away, my stomach curling into the same worry I tried quelling down.“She hasn't been eating properly, stays in her room. I found from Kayla that she rarely contacts them, and even then doesn't broach any subject. Neither of them are aware of the incident and she isn't eager to tell them.”He sighed despondently. “She also hadn't been doing anything. She tries going to the pack school to help, but every pack member there can see she's not okay. What happened with her mother…. she hasn't recovered from it.”Almost a week had passed since I found her tear streaked face in her bedroom. Since I made her a promise that filled me with guilt.I had expected this to happen, though not to this degree. After facing life threatening situations, at times she seemed invincible.But she wasn't. And this incident with her mother had broken her.Despite my wishes to stay with her,

Rose's POVI sighed, looking up at the night sky. The chill of the night sky made me shiver, but I embraced it.The hospital region looked so different from the places I was used to, but the sky always remained the same.I had stayed in the hospital for four days now. Even though in theory there was no longer any need to. Real had insisted on the hospital staff who allowed me to remain here, even without the needs for medical attention.I was grateful for it, and I was sure he knew why I didn't want to step into the mansion again.And so my nights were spent within the place, no dankehs in sight and Real being a constant presence. Despite staying in the hospital, he brought food from the pack house daily which I accepted.Adian visited another time on one occasion, and Rael stood by, acting more like a watchdog. Amidst their jabs I could see what I had been blind to for so long. The easy camaraderie between them. And Rael seemed lighter than I had ever seen him before.Now, four days
Alpha CEO’s baby mama This was home.
Rael's POVTracing her contact and the texts she sent was the hardest part, everything aside from that was easy.Location in hand, I arrived to find him, said ex boyfriend, sipping tea in the cafe waiting for her. I stepped in, facing him.I could tell that he was one to be easily intimidated, proven by how he palmed immediately after he recognized me. In no time, he scrammed out of the cafe, garnering many looks for a moment. I waited in silence for the main reason for my presence.It took almost twenty minutes, before Jade stepped in, eyes searching through the tables. Despite her almost innocent appearance, she was definitely sharp minded. The moment she spotted me, surprise flitted onto her face before morphing into dislike.She indeed loathed me. I had never been close or bothered with any of her friends aside from listening whenever she talked about them, but whether I caught it or not wouldn't have mattered either way if not for this.I partly expected her to walk away or try t
Alpha CEO’s baby mama No more secrets.
Rose's POV Rael left shortly after bringing me breakfast, leaving me with a kiss on my forehead and whispered promises.Full and completely awake, there was no way I was going back to bed anytime soon. With nothing left to do, I walked around the large hospital room I had been given, admiring the skyline view in peace. I tried not to think too much about Jade and whatever measures Real was going to take, only hoping that both of them were alright. Instead, I looked down at my belly.A baby was growing in there and I never noticed. Slowly rubbing it, I smiled to myself at Rael's past words. Indeed, this baby was resilient to have gone past the alcohol and malnourishment, only to remain healthy.Strong, but that didn't mean I was going to let anyone harm it. “I don't know what will happen between your father and I, but I promise you I'll protect you the best I can. Even if it costs me.” Shutting my eyes, I repeated it several times, keeping it etched in my bones.I would do my best t
Alpha CEO’s baby mama I will take care of it.
Rose's POVWhen I woke up, the sun was up and it was far warmer than before. Yawning, I looked around as it eased upon me.The chair Rael was on was completely empty. I properly looked around at the surroundings.The place was large, filled with couches and chairs with a dining setting right beside them. Save hospital beds, it looked more like a hotel.This definitely wasn't cheap.I let out a sigh, shaking my head. There was nothing I could do about it now.Even with his absence, I could still hear his words.He loved me.There were still plenty of things to deal with, especially with my pregnancy on the way. But instead, I laid back on the mattress, closing my eyes. At this moment, I was content.I spent my time taking deep breaths, lost in the blank zen state when a sudden vibration pulled me out.Blinking, I looked around for the source, only to see my phone in surprise.‘He'd taken it too, I reasoned. I looked at the screen in surprise. Jade was calling.I gasped, recalling how I
Alpha CEO’s baby mama A conclusion.
Rose's POVI squinted in the face of the blinding lights, taking time to adjust as I slowly returned to reality.Beeping filled my ears, closer than ever. The sting of disinfectant woke me up even further.‘Where was I?’ I faintly wondered as I drifted out of dreamland. I tried sitting up when suddenly a pair of warm hands circled me.“Wait." All vestiges of sleep erased at his voice.His words and our unfinished discussion before my fainting still rang clearly in my mind.‘Of course,’ I thought. He was the one who no doubt brought me here.I remained silent while he helped me sit up, avoiding eye contact. Tingles grew from his penetrating stare, but I ignored it.“Where am I?" I asked, breaking the tense silence.“You're in the hospital." He said, confirming my thoughts.A slight twinge of relief filled me that I wasn't back in the mansion, no matter how much my heart lurched for it. This was more neutral ground.Those thoughts went away once I remembered why I was in the hospital.
Alpha CEO’s baby mama To protect her.
Rael's POVPanic grew in my throat the moment I caught her in my arms. She was out cold, her breaths shallow.Damn it all. I hadn't thought about her condition. The fact that she hadn't been eating for the past few days.None of that will do. I had to take her to the hospital.Hefting her body up, I moved against the fallen bodies in the hallway. That would be taken care of later.I had rushed in, feeling the warning instincts. She wouldn't forgive me if I left her friend there.‘She may not forgive you at all.’ Ny hands tightened on her at the thought.Rose's friend was knocked out cold on the floor, but otherwise, she was safe. No doubt she would wake up in a matter of hours.Laying Rose on the couch, I picked Jade up, tucking her into her bedroom before leaving just as quickly.Picking her up again, my gaze was fixated on her face, how peaceful she looked even now.Without another word, I sped back to my car.Driving into the hospital gave the feeling of deja vu, but I ignored it i
Alpha CEO’s baby mama A fainting spell.
Rose's POVI almost couldn't believe it, but it was undeniable.The man I was hurt by, whom I thought wouldn't rescue me, was there. His eyes treaded across them.“Let her go.” He growled, body poised in a way that made him seem larger than life.The man that held me and his henchman were both stuck in place. I was too stricken to try struggling against them, which wouldn't have amounted to anything considering the still painful grip they had on me.In a flash, everything changed.The whiplash was painful as I was pulled away, the man holding me running as fast as he could out of the hallway. The movement sent a wave of dizziness through me.A loud growl, and everything holding me disappeared. I was light, flying freely in the air for a moment before I collided harshly with the ground. I whimpered as my injured arm burned before I slumped back to the floor.A choked noise and the sound of flesh colliding were all I heard before everything fell silent.Harsh breaths came up behind me,
Alpha CEO’s baby mama More attacks.
Rose's POV I followed Jade through the door, shutting it behind me.I had sneaked out of the mansion, thankfully taking advantage of the lack of presence. Even with fear creeping from me, I walked until my legs hurt, moving until I reached the asphalt streets I had told Jade to wait for me in. Jade had taken a taxi all the way to the far end of the place where I met her. I looked away from her gaze, knowing the poor sight I looked like at the moment. It all went away after I entered the taxi, watching the mansion move farther and farther away. It was past midnight when we finally arrived in the city and even further when we got to her place.The timing was unexpected, but it all made sense when the destination wasn't the same one I knew.This apartment was new and different. From the minimal tones and the slightly more expensive look, it was a complete change from her former space throughout college.I looked around in awe. “I didn't know you had a new place,” I said, looking around
Alpha CEO’s baby mama Gone.
Rael's POV.I took in the cool air, letting the heat simmer down.Finally, the anticipated meeting with the Alpha Council had taken place and it was anticlimactic.I had welcomed them, pushing away all my worries easier than expected. After giving them the information and discoveries gathered, thanks to Mira, they were equally ecstatic.That was my chance to state my sole condition to continue this project.Let Rose go.“There is no need for us to use an innocent human as bait for the Dankehs anymore.” I had tried reasoning with them.The backlash was expected, but I physically had to hold myself back from losing control in the face of their disparaging comments.‘A mere human?’Rose was far more than that. She was more than anything else I had seen. I, who had taken advantage of her naivety and kindness, had tried seeing her in the same way in the beginning and failed miserably. None of them would understand though. They just saw her as a tool to gain victory over the threat plaguin
