Sebastian’s POV “I’m scared for these next results,” Emily said, peering over at Sebastian who remained in his seat by her bed. “I’ve been feeling off lately. Lightheaded, nausea, things like that.” “I’m sure it’s nothing to worry about,” he said, keeping his voice monotone. “They will figure something out if it is serious. “What if it’s bad?” She asked, nervousness in her tone. “You already have the fate of death knocking on your door,” Sebastian reminded her. “Can’t be worse than that.” She leaned back in her bed; his words were meant to make her feel a bit better about her test results, but he realized his tone was a bit harsher than he meant it. He didn’t say anything else though; he leaned back in his own seat and stared over at the clock. There was a part of him that kind of wanted to find Hannah and see how she was doing. She’s been acting weird for the last few days, and he couldn’t figure out what was wrong. He knew if he a
Hannah’s POV “I’m sorry you had to find out this way,” Emily said, a smile playing on her lips and there was no ounce of compassion on her expression. “She isn’t sorry,” Nora hissed. “Nothing about her is sorry.” I clenched my fingers tightly, feeling my nails pressing firmly in the palms of my hands. It was taking everything I had not to lung at her and rip her apart, piece by piece. “We’ve been seeing each other for some time now. He was supposed to tell you, but I couldn’t wait for him to do that much longer.” “I appreciate your honesty,” I said through my tightened jaw. I had to get out of there before something happened. I could feel tears burning in the back of my eyes and I was already humiliated standing in her presence. I could sense Sebastian returning to the room; he was only around the corner. If I left now, he wouldn’t see me. I needed to get out of there quickly. I turned away from Emily before she c
Sebastian’s POV It was a new feeling for Sebastian when he saw how broken Hannah had become. There was a painful sensation in his chest and Eric was getting a nasty feeling as well. He wasn’t sure what happened at the hospital to make her go crazy and take off in her wolf form, but he knew he shouldn’t have left her alone with Emily. Nancy pulled him away to discuss some of Emily’s test results. It wasn’t anything serious, so Sebastian was aggravated for being pulled out of the room when he needed so desperately to speak with Hannah. He understood what she thought she saw when she first entered the room. Sebastian had his lips pressed against Emily’s, but he was only giving her mouth-to-mouth. He was certain Hannah understood that once Nancy got there, but she took off so suddenly he wasn’t sure what she was thinking. “Let her go,” Eric said as Sebastian was about to take off after her. It wasn’t like his wolf to hold him back when it came to Hannah.
Sebastian’s POV Sebastian had been walking through the forest in his wolf form for most of the night. He couldn’t bring himself to go back to the palace after his last conversation with Emily. She told him she was pregnant, and she told Hannah it was his baby. He was so speechless that he needed to leave before he killed her and every doctor and nurse in that hospital. He was ready to lose control but thankfully he managed to get away to a safe distance and let loose on some stray animals instead. If it was the full moon, though, they wouldn’t have been so lucky. The hurt expression Hannah had given him made so much sense now. He felt stupid for allowing her to think such a thing. He didn’t believe in infidelity and besides, Hannah was his chosen mate. He couldn’t do anything to deliberately hurt her or her wolf. He needed her to understand that; he needed to speak with her. He watched the sun rising in the distance and he knew it would only
Hannah’s POVThe ground in the living quarters felt cold; blood dripped from my shoulder blade and soaked my clothing. I touched the area where Sebastian had bit into me with my trembling fingers and allowed the tears to soak my features as I watched him walk away. He left me there alone and I had never felt emptier.I heard the front doors of the palace slamming shut as he left; I flinched at the loud sound. The mark on my neck was healing quickly, but the ghost of his teeth sinking into me remained on my flesh. His scarlet gazes once poured into me, and I can still see them whenever I close my eyes.
Sebastian’s POVSebastian watched from afar as Hannah left the hospital. She had tears in her eyes and her features were pale. He had never seen her look so broken before and it pained him. He was the one that did that to her, and he couldn’t do anything to fix it at that moment. He thought if he left her alone; she would be able to process what had happened and she wouldn’t leave. She would understand that he did that for her own wellbeing; he marked her as his and now she was officially his chosen mate.Regardless of if she wanted to believe it or not, she can feel the mate bond between them. But she was too upset to understand what it meant. H
Hannah’s POV Blood poured down the nape of my neck as I tried to escape his grip. He wouldn’t release me regardless of how loudly begged. His scarlet eyes stared into me, tormenting my wolf. Nora cried to him to release us, but he wouldn’t listen. He held me closer to him and bit into me again. Again and again, he marked me as his. “You will never get rid of me,” he said in a harsh tone. Tears sprang from my eyes as I fell to the ground in a puddle of my own
Hannah’s POV“What the hell, Hannah!?” Raya said as we got to the lunchroom. “You didn’t tell me you knew Professor Lynol.”“I don’t really know him,” I told her.We grabbed a couple of sandwiches from the lunch line and were searching for a place to sit. We found an empty table on the far side of the lunchroom, and we sat down.“He knows your name!” She cooed excitedly.
Hannah I woke up in the hospital. I opened my eyes, adjusting them to the dimmed lighting and seeing Sebastian sitting by my side. He jumped to his feet as soon as I opened my eyes. I thought I would have been in a world of pain, but everything just felt numb.“Try not to move too much,” he says as he fixes my pillow. He grabs a glass of water on my bedside and brings it to my lips. The cold water feels good going down my throat and I smile at him in gratitude. “How are you feeling?”“I’m okay,” I said to him in a hoarse tone. “How’s Wrenley?”His face lights up at the mention of our daughter and I know that means good news.“She’s perfect,” he breathes. “See for yourself.”He goes across the room to a small bassinet and picks up the cooing baby. She’s wrapped in a pink blanket. She’s so small and as he brings her closer. S
HannahAt first, I wanted to deny that my water had just broken in the middle of Raya’s wedding. I really thought I just peed myself. Wren has been sitting on top of my bladder the entire time and I felt the urge to pee for the longest time. But then, the pain hit me suddenly and I nearly fell to the ground.It felt like cramps, but ten times worse. I screamed out as I held onto my stomach. There was no denying it now; I was going into labor.“Someone, call an ambulance!” I heard Dr. Davis say as he jumped to his feet.I felt Nancy’s hands around my arms as she pulls me towards a clearing in the chapel.“I need some room!” She shouts to those who are surrounding us.Everyone scatters to give her some room. Sebastian was quick to be by my side. He was saying something that I couldn’t quite understand. The pain was too much for me and all I could think about at that moment was needing
Hannah 5 months later.I stare at myself in the mirror, and I don’t like what I’m seeing. I’m so round; I wobble like a penguin. My entire back is sore, and my legs hardly hold up my weight. My hair has gone completely flat and lifeless, my complexion is too fair, and I don’t look decent unless I wear a bunch of makeup.I’m wearing a loose-fitting light pink dress with a pair of flats that look like ballet slippers because that’s the only thing that’ll fit my swollen feet.“I’m so fat…” I whine as tears fill my eyes. My hormones were getting the best of me; I don’t remember feeling like this the first time I was pregnant.“You’re not fat,” Sebastian says from behind me, wrapping his arms around me and peering at me through the mirror as well. “You’re pregnant and you’re beautiful.”“I look like an ogre,&r
HannahIt only took me a couple of hours to finish baking the cookies. The kitchen staff seemed utterly surprised that I knew my way around the kitchen. If they thought I was good at making cookies, I couldn’t wait to show them what else I could do.As the luna queen, I promised myself that I would be helping the servants with their daily duties, including meals. I used to cook a lot when I lived in my father’s pack, so I knew how to create a decent meal. As an omega, I’ve always been pretty skilled at baking as well.I gave each of the kitchen servants, including the head chef, a cookie so they can see how they came out.“These are incredible, Luna Queen!” The head chef gasped.I can’t help but smile at their praises as I bundled the rest up on a platter and covered the top of it.“I hope she likes it,” another servant says with a mouthful of cookies. “If not, bring them
Hannah“My mate…” Scott says as he steps further into the palace and toward Caroline. I could hear Caroline’s heart beating so fast that I thought it was going to jump out of her chest. She couldn’t take her eyes away from Scott.Sebastian and I exchanged questioning looks. In the underworld, I had no idea that they were mates. But maybe it was because they couldn’t recognize each other due to Xander’s control. He must have had more control over them than they thought. But that would explain why they became such great friends and why Scott cared about her so deeply while she was in the underworld. Even when he still stayed at the palace and worked for Xander, he seemed to still care for Caroline.Now that I think of it, I’m not sure when or how Scott even ended up in the underworld. But it must have been around this time. Caroline and Scott must have gotten there around the same time for him to be
Sebastian Sebastian slowly stood from his desk; he knew this was going to happen based on their history. But the joy he was feeling in his heart was almost too much for him to handle. He had a large smile that spread across his lips at her announcement. She had a faint smile and tears in her eyes as she pressed the palms of her hands to her stomach. This was the first time she’s ever announced something like this.He ran around his desk and toward her. Scooping her into his arms, he twirled her around. She laughed as she wrapped her arms around his neck. She kissed him deeply and he can feel her heart beating rapidly in her chest.He can feel just how happy she is, and he was happy too. They were having a baby. They were finally going to meet their little Wrenley.…Hannah2 months later.A couple of months after I discovered I was pregnant; I was finally showing a baby bump. I haven’t been able to shift into my wolf form because pregnant wolves can’t shift, which makes us weaker tha
HannahSebastian kissed down my naked body as we entangled ourselves in the bed. The rose petals stuck to my sweating skin and tickled the bareness of my back. I breathed in the amazing scent of my mate, feeling completely content and at peace. His fingers traced down the sides of my body and I can’t help but smile as his lips found mine.I loved this man so much and I wanted to show him just how much he meant to me. I deepened the kiss, wrapping my legs firmly around his broad waist, bringing his manhood further inside of me. feeling his length and girth filling me, I gasped at the incredible sensation. It was something I was never going to get used to. The way he makes me feel is surreal. Even more that I know he is my fated mate. Everything about him is just so incredible.I can feel my wolf running laps through my mind’s eyes; she’s eager to be near him and to be touched by him. This is all she’s been wanting for a very long time. He bit onto my bottom lip and drew it into his mou
Sebastian “You are under arrest for the attempted murder of my maid,” Sebastian growled to Magnolia. Magnolia looked furious and fought against the warriors that held her captive. They were placing cuffs around her wrists to keep her powers under control. Her icy blue eyes peered at Sebastian, and she looked as if she wanted to spit in his face.“You are going to resent this day,” she hissed to him. “I promise you; this palace and your crown will be mine.”Sebastian said nothing to her as he watched the gammas take her out of the palace. She was going to be locked away for a very long time if Sebastian had anything to say about it. He shook his head in dismay as he overheard Hannah comforting a very frightened Caroline.Caroline was still on the ground and Hannah had her arms wrapped around her tightly. Both of them seemed to be trembling. After everything that has happened these last few weeks, he knew Hannah has been holding a lot in, and now was the time to relax and allow her fee
Hannah“She could have been under Xander’s control. Now that Xander has no power, neither does Magnolia,” Sebastian tried to tell me, but I was already ripping the IVs out of my arm. “Easy Hannah. You could puncture a vein.”“I’m not taking any chances,” I said in return. “I can’t lose her again, Sebastian.”For a moment, he looked like he wanted to protest against me, but with one look at my stern face, he knew it was better that he didn’t. He sighed and grabbed onto my arms, stopping me from pulling out any more of the IVs.“Let me do it,” he said as he cautiously pulled the IVs out of my arm.He grabbed some bandages that were left on the nightstand and wrapped my arms with the soft cloth, keeping my bleeding at bay.“We still have some time before anything happens at the palace; we need to be smart about this,” Sebastian says as he finishes tying the bandages around my arms. “I won’t be able to do anything unless we catch Magnolia in the act. I can’t just have her arrested based o
