Days passed since the new, temporary living arrangement. As the days passed, there had been no improvement for either side of this 'fated relationship'. Not only was Ellie not willing to reach out to William, but at night, when the guy awakens from his mate's whimperings, he kept pushing the topic of her past onto her, only to receive nothing but silence in return. The silence was getting to William's nerves... Even more so since he had to be careful of how to treat her with her current condition.The pregnancy symptoms increased as the time passed. From morning and late night nauseaa- when she wasn't having nightmares- to her change in appetite. With each negative-like reaction occurring from her, William couldn't help but subconsciously feel like needing to trend carefully around Ellie, for their pup's sake. The Alpha never felt the need to be so careful before, but he couldn't truly say he disliked it. Then again, that could be his wolf affecting him.Speaking of Liam, to William's
William rushed over to Jen's place as quickly as he could. The arousal feeling from the mate bond was really affecting him bad, as he felt his mind getting a bit hazy, prompting him to hurry to his destination even more.'What the hell, William?!' Liam shouted in his head, much to his dismay.'I am NOT in the mood, Liam!' William angrily thought.'But you left Ellie! Just when you both got something going!''Got 'what' exactly? You should know that I don't want to have anything more to do with her! I may be with her now for the pup, and I may have already decided to be merciful to her after the pup is born, HOWEVER! I refuse to even get along with that mutt! My future, my decision! And I decided to spend my future with none other than Jen; not her! And you are far from helping me with this!''Except I am your wolf! As your wolf, I am also your subconscious! It is practically my job to tell you what to do, particularly if it is for your sake! I had let you be with Jen- a werewolf you w
Ellie and her former wardens walked down the road to Jengo’s house, where they assume William will be. As they walked, Ashina couldn’t help but sneak in some glances at the pregnant werewolf, worried for her about what they may witness or overhear later.“Will you quit looking at her like that?” Morgan told his companion in a whisper.“How can I not? We know how much our Alpha loves our Beta,” Ashina whispered back. “If those two had an argument bad enough that the Alpha left her for Beta Jen, I worry about what we will see…”Her saying that made Morgan sneak a peek at Ellie as well. The pregnant woman seemed oblivious to what they were talking about, which set some ease into his own heart. He did not want to put on stress to her and get chewed out by his leader for it. “Yeah… I admit, this is worrying,” he muttered.“Oh, so now you see things my way. Why did you tell her to go find him, then?!”“Between her making assumptions and giving her increasing stress and her witnessing what i
In Jengo's room, the Beta and his Alpha boyfriend were having quite the pleasurable time together. The former especially did his best to make the latter feel good, relieving him of the heat he was experiencing earlier. It was working well for the most part, until William suddenly broke off from their activity, much to Jen's confusion."W-William? What's wrong?" he asked, panting in slight exhaustion.Looking at the Alpha, Jen saw the guy looking out the window, a troubled expression on his face. Seeing his boyfriend like that was starting to concern Jen. Before he could even call out to him again, however, William got off the bed they were on and quickly got dressed."What's the matter?" he tried again.William paused for a moment, looking at Jen sadly before resuming in dressing himself. "I'm really sorry to have to do this to you, Jen, but I need to get back to Ellie and the baby."Those words got Jen on full alert, as he looked at William with a shocked expression. While the pair h
Ever since William returned to Ellie- ever since Ellie more or less walked in on the Alpha's love-making with his boyfriend- things had been somewhat strained for the two werewolves. On one end, Ellie could not make heads or tails with her own feelings toward William. She did not like the guy, nor should she ever like him, yet whenever the guy does these sort of things- from comforting her to being with Jengo- she constantly felt things she shouldn't feel. Things... that a lover would feel in her condition. Each time she felt this way, Ellie just wanted to laugh and smack herself, scold herself for having such a twisted view on love now, assuming if that was what she was feeling.On the other end with William, he sensed the change in Ellie. A change that bothers him more than anything. While he was glad that she was still letting him be close to his child, each time he did, he saw a hint of sadness behind her smiles, and could even see her hand tremble. It was not as though she assume
In Jengo's home, the Beta werewolf was browsing over the book he found in his room. It was the one book he has never seen before, but the cover and title on it set off many alarms in his head. Because of it, Jengo had been losing some sleep, as well as some focus during his responsibilities; from meetings with the advisors to giving his peers some counciling, be it in terms of training or with their other work around the pack in the latter side. And for a good reason..."Every time I look at this, I really need to ask... How the hell did this end up in my room? Magic Compendium..." he muttered, turning a pack in the book.The book in his possession? It was not something any pack should have. Not something any werewolf should have. How could it? When the contents are about magic. Something in which werewolves should not even touch upon. No... Such a thing is within a witch's territory.Witches... They were one of werewolves' greatest enemies. Although they were practically humans, they
Once he uncovered the truth behind Ellie, the rite she used to get William to think they were true mates, and reviewed what the rite does in full, Jengo hastily made his way to Ellie's home. Both to question Ellie about his findings, and inform William that they were right about how false she was. While doing this does make him feel guilty in many ways, if it meant freeing his boyfriend from that mutt's clutches, he will gladly live with that guilt. That is... He had resolved himself to do so, until he was met face-to-face with William, who answered the front door."Jen?""William... We need to talk," Jengo could only say first."Why, Jen? What's wrong?" William asked, greatly concerned for the Beta.Jengo wanted to tell him right on the spot what the problem was, why he so urgently went to him, and maybe even apologize for going behind his back and send out some werewolves, even if he didn't send them to the Liberal Pack. However, as he glanced past William's shoulders, he saw Ellie
"In the name of our Moon Goddess, I reject you and this false ‘bond’ we supposedly share!"When those words left his mouth, a familiar surge of pain ran through Ellie, much to her surprise. She didn't think it was possible. In fact, it should've been impossible! How could she experience this for the third time?!'The... Mate Rejection...?!' How could she feel this again...? When she and William are not mates? Having two fated mates is one thing in her case, but three?! 'Then William... He was right? He wasn't being delusional?! But... How can that be...? How is this possible?!'No matter how she thought about it, it made no sense at all. How could she feel this again? How could William be right about them being mates? Though she wanted to deny it, there was no mistaking the pain she was in... It was undoubtedly the rejection. Only... It felt worse than she remembered it. And she had a good feeling as to why that was.Her baby... She was pregnant now. And most of the pain was undoubted
