When we got to the hospital, the smell of disinfectant hit me immediately. It was clean, but the sharp scent made my stomach twist a little. A nurse greeted us at the front desk and led us down a quiet hallway. She opened the door to one of the private rooms and gestured for us to go inside.

“The doctor will be with you shortly,” she said with a polite smile before shutting the door behind her.

The room was small but cozy. There was a bed with crisp white sheets in the center, a chair in the corner, and a window overlooking the hospital garden. I sat on the edge of the bed, my hands resting on my lap, but I couldn’t stop fidgeting. My nerves were getting the better of me, and I didn’t know how to calm myself down.

Kai stood by the window with his arms crossed, his gaze focused on something outside. His expression was unreadable, but his presence was intimidating as always. He hadn’t said much since we arrived, which only made the room feel more tense. Zara, on the other hand, made her

    Zara tilted her head, as if considering my words, but the smirk never left her face. “Your baby,” she repeated mockingly. “Do you really think anyone wants that thing? You’re nothing more than a distraction. A liability.”She pressed the scalpel a little harder, not enough to cut, but enough to make her point. “Remember this,” she said in a low, threatening voice. “I could hurt you anytime I wanted. And no one—no one—would stop me.”I swallowed back a sob, feeling completely helpless. The weight of her words and the cold steel against my skin made my hands shake."Please," I begged again, my voice barely above a whisper.The scalpel pressed harder against my skin, sharp enough to make me wince, but before she could do anything more, the sound of the door creaking open made her freeze. My head shot up, my breath catching in my throat.The doctor stepped into the room, followed closely by Kai. Relief flooded through me so strongly that I almost burst into tears. Zara immediately stepped

    I clenched my fists, my nails digging into my palms as I tried to keep my emotions in check. “I can handle it,” I said softly, though my voice trembled slightly.Kai finally spoke, his voice low and commanding. “Zara, that’s enough.”Her smirk faltered for a split second, but she quickly recovered, shrugging nonchalantly. “I’m just saying,” she muttered, looking away.Kai ignored her and turned to me. “You’ll do what the doctor says,” he said, his tone leaving no room for argument. “If there’s anything you need, you let me know.”I nodded, still avoiding his gaze. “Okay,” I whispered.The doctor smiled reassuringly at me. “You’re doing well so far. Just follow the advice, and everything should be fine.”“Thank you, doctor,” I said, my voice barely audible.As the doctor gathered his things, Zara rolled her eyes dramatically. “Are we done here? This has been... enlightening,” she said sarcastically.Kai shot her a warning look. “We’re leaving,” he said curtly, his tone making it clear

    The mansion was alive with activity. I could hear faint music playing from outside and the buzz of voices drifting through the halls. Kai, Zara, and Rhys were waiting at the bottom of the stairs. As I slowly made my way down, I noticed Kai’s eyes were locked on me. It was like he was studying every step I took. He looked as effortlessly handsome as ever, dressed in a fitted black dress shirt and matching black slacks. His presence seemed to demand attention without him even trying.Zara stood next to him in a stunning red dress that hugged her figure perfectly. Her hair was styled to perfection, and she looked like she had stepped straight out of a magazine. She was gorgeous, and she knew it. Then there was Rhys, casual as always, wearing a white button-up shirt with the sleeves rolled up and dark jeans. His easy smile lit up his face as he glanced up at me.I tried to steady myself as I descended, one hand holding the railing while the other rested on my belly. Rhys started moving t

    Rhys tilted his head, looking at me with a mix of understanding and mischief. "He cares about you and his baby," he corrected gently.I didn’t say anything in reply, too unsure to start a conversation on that topic. My mind was swirling with thoughts, and I didn’t want to get caught up in something that might not be true. Instead, I glanced around the crowd, hoping to spot Mer.I saw her standing near the edge of the party, talking to some of the other women from the pack. She was wearing a soft, flowy dress, and her laughter reached me even from a distance. I smiled, relieved to see her, and started making my way through the crowd toward her.Rhys gave me a small nudge before following behind, his presence a quiet support as I walked. The evening felt alive with energy, and for a moment, I let myself get lost in the warmth of the celebration.I spotted Mer from across the lawn, her smile as bright as ever as she moved around, serving drinks to the guests. I waved at her, and she caug

    My breath caught in my throat, and I doubled over, clutching my stomach as I gasped for air.The pain was so strong, I felt like I might collapse. My head spun, and my vision blurred for a moment. I took a deep breath, hoping it would pass, but it didn’t. It only got worse, like a tight knot pulling at my insides.I glanced around quickly, looking for Rhys or Mer, but they were still too far away. I was on my own, and the panic started to rise in my chest. What was happening? Was it the baby? Was something wrong?I took another shaky breath, trying to steady myself, but the pain kept pulsing, making it harder to focus. My heart was racing, and my legs felt weak beneath me. I didn't know if I should call out, or if I should just try to wait for it to pass, but I couldn’t do either.Finally, I managed to straighten up a little, still holding my stomach, hoping someone would notice me. My mind raced, and I tried to push down the fear that was threatening to overwhelm me. This wasn’t good

    Kai's POVI had never been as scared as I was when Lily collapsed in my arms. The way her body went limp, her face pale and void of color—it made my heart race, panic twisting in my chest. She had been fine just moments ago. She had been laughing and smiling, her usual self, and now she was lying there, barely breathing. And then the blood. So much blood. My mind couldn't make sense of it. How had everything gone so wrong so quickly?I watched helplessly as the doctor rushed into the room, moving quickly but calmly. He didn’t say much at first, just assessed the situation. The tension in the air was suffocating. My hands clenched into fists at my sides, fighting the urge to run to Lily’s side, but I knew the doctor needed to work, and I needed to let him.The doctor turned to me then, his voice gentle but firm. "I need you to step out for a moment, Mr. Kai. I need to stop the bleeding."I froze. I didn’t want to leave her. Every part of me screamed to stay with her, to hold her hand a

    Kai’s POV Wolfsbane. The very word sent a chill down my spine. It was a deadly poison for werewolves, and the fact that she had been exposed to it... it didn’t make sense. How had she gotten exposed to something so dangerous, especially with the strict rules we had about it in the pack? It was forbidden. No one should have access to it. "How?" I asked, my voice barely above a whisper, a sense of dread creeping over me. "How did she get exposed to it?" The doctor shook his head, his brow furrowed. "I don’t know, Kai. But we need to keep an eye on her. The poison affects werewolves in different ways, and she’s already under a lot of stress from the pregnancy. It could complicate things further." I clenched my fists at my sides, trying to keep my emotions in check. The idea that someone had exposed Lily to Wolfsbane made my blood boil. Whoever did this was playing a dangerous game. But there were bigger things to worry about for now. "I’ll make sure she’s taken care of," I said

    Lily's PovI woke up to the warm sunlight streaming in through the large windows of my room. It felt strange, like I had been asleep for days. My head felt heavy, and for a moment, I wasn’t sure where I was. Slowly, memories of last night started to come back—the pain, the panic, the shouting for a doctor. My heart clenched, and I did the first thing that came to mind—I placed my hand gently on my belly. My fingers trembled as I did so, and I whispered a silent prayer. Please let my baby be okay.I lay there, waiting for a sign, any sign, that everything was fine. But nothing happened. No movement, no reassuring kick. Just the quiet hum of the room around me. My chest tightened with worry. I blinked back tears, trying to push away the horrible thoughts creeping into my mind.I glanced around the room, realizing I was alone. It was quiet, too quiet. No one had bothered to stay with me. The emptiness of the room made the emptiness in my heart feel even heavier. I couldn’t help but feel

    I decided to call Elliot to see if we could meet now. My fingers felt a little shaky as I pulled my phone out and dialed his number. I wasn’t sure why I was nervous—maybe because I hadn’t really made any new friends lately, and he seemed like such a nice guy. I took a deep breath as the phone rang, trying to calm myself down.After a few rings, Elliot picked up. “Hello?” His voice sounded cheerful, and I couldn’t help but feel a little relieved.“Hey, Elliot, it’s me,” I said, trying to sound upbeat. “I was just wondering if we could meet now to check out the flower designs?”“Oh, absolutely!” he replied, sounding genuinely happy to hear from me. “I’ve got the arrangements ready for you to take a look at. Are you free now?”“Yeah, I’m already in town,” I answered. “Just tell me where your flower shop is, and I’ll head over.”“Great! It’s called ‘Bloom & Bliss,’ on Maple Street. You can’t miss it—the sign’s painted bright yellow, and there’s a big display of sunflowers outside,” he exp

    Finally, he stepped aside, and I hurried past him, not daring to look back. I needed to get as far away from him as possible before I completely broke down. My chest felt tight, and my eyes stung, but I refused to cry in front of him.As I walked down the path leading away from the house, I forced myself to take deep, calming breaths. The morning air was cool against my skin, and the soft rustling of leaves overhead was almost comforting. I needed this moment of peace, away from the tension and the ache in my chest. I tried to focus on the steady rhythm of my footsteps, one after the other, moving me farther from the mansion and all the confusion that came with it.My thoughts kept drifting back to Kai, no matter how hard I tried to push them away. I couldn’t get the image of him and Zara out of my head. The way he kissed her with so much passion made my heart ache. I bit my lip to stop the tears that threatened to fall. I didn’t want to cry anymore. I was tired of feeling hurt and co

    When I got to Kai’s room, I hesitated at the door for a moment. I wasn’t sure what I was expecting—maybe to find him there, waiting to talk, or maybe still asleep. But when I pushed the door open, the room was empty. A strange mix of relief and disappointment washed over me. I let out a small sigh and stepped inside, gently closing the door behind me.The room looked just as I had left it earlier. The bed was still a bit messy, the sheets rumpled from where I had been lying down. The faint scent of Kai lingered in the air—a comforting, familiar smell that made my chest tighten. I didn’t want to think about him right now, but it was hard not to when everything in this room reminded me of him.I walked over to the window, pushing the curtains aside to let the sunlight in. The morning light spilled across the floor, brightening up the space. I glanced out at the view of the garden below, watching the breeze make the flowers sway. It was peaceful—too peaceful compared to the storm of emot

    We continued walking along the path, taking our time. The sun was climbing higher in the sky, warming the cool morning air, and the smell of pine and wildflowers filled the breeze. I couldn’t help but feel a bit lighter after talking to Mer, even though the ache in my chest was still there. Just having her by my side made things a little more bearable.The sound of birds singing softly in the trees seemed to match the rhythm of our steps. I noticed how the sunlight filtered through the branches, casting dappled patterns on the ground. Mer and I walked in comfortable silence for a while, both of us just soaking in the calm of the morning.Then my phone buzzed, startling me out of my thoughts. I pulled it out of my pocket, glancing at the screen. The name "Elliot" flashed across it, and I hesitated for a second before answering.“Hello?” I greeted, trying to keep my voice steady despite the unexpected call.“Hey, Lily! It’s Elliot,” came his cheerful, upbeat voice. I could almost pictur

    Lily’s POV But then I had seen him kissing Zara. My heart had shattered right there in his office, and I couldn’t shake the image from my mind. It hurt so much. I felt embarrassed, stupid even, for letting myself hope that Kai might choose me over her.Mer was still looking at me, her eyes full of concern. I bit my lip and shook my head slowly. “It’s nothing,” I whispered, but the crack in my voice gave me away.Mer’s expression softened, and she pulled me into a tight hug, not saying anything. I closed my eyes, leaning into her, grateful for the comfort even if I couldn’t tell her the whole truth.It was too much. I felt like such a fool for thinking Kai could ever put me first. Of course, he still loved Zara. She was everything I wasn’t—beautiful, confident, and most of all, someone Kai had always protected. I was just... there.I couldn’t help the small sob that escaped, and Mer rubbed my back soothingly. “It’s okay,” she murmured. “You don’t have to talk about it if you’re not re

    Lily’s POV I slowly opened my eyes, squinting against the soft morning light filtering through the curtains. The room was quiet, too quiet, and it took me a moment to realize that the bed beside me was empty. I turned over, my hand brushing against the cool sheets where Kai should have been. He was gone.A part of me didn’t know how to feel about his absence. Should I be relieved that I didn’t have to face him right now, or hurt that he didn’t bother to stay? My heart felt heavy, and I couldn’t decide which emotion to focus on. I took a deep breath, trying to push away the knot forming in my chest.Slowly, I sat up, feeling the familiar ache in my lower back. I moved carefully, not wanting to jostle myself too much. My hands instinctively went to my baby bump, cradling it gently. At least I wasn’t completely alone. The little one inside me was a constant reminder that, no matter what, I had someone to fight for.I swung my legs over the side of the bed and stood up, stretching slight

    Kai’s POV Lily had ran off, I felt the guilt settle over me like a heavy weight. I knew I’d made a terrible mistake, and I didn’t know how to fix it. I couldn’t get the image of Lily’s devastated expression out of my head. I hated myself for hurting her. I wanted to go after her, but I couldn’t leave Zara alone, not when she was this vulnerable.Maybe Rhys was right. Maybe Lily would be better off with someone who wouldn’t hurt her the way I did. Someone who wouldn’t make stupid mistakes and break her heart. But the idea of her being with him made my chest feel tight and my hands clench in frustration. I didn’t want to lose her, but I had no idea how to make things right.I slowly got up from the bed, moving as carefully as I could so I wouldn't wake Lily. She looked so peaceful, lying on her side with her back to me, her dark hair spread out over the pillow. I wanted to reach out and touch her, to feel the warmth of her skin and reassure myself that she was still here. But I didn’t

  • BILLIONAIRE ALPHA'S ACCIDENTAL SURROGATE    Chapter 113

    Kai’s POV I woke up early, long before the sun had risen. I hadn’t really slept at all, just lay there in the dark, staring at the ceiling and then at Lily’s back. She was still asleep, curled up on her side, facing away from me. Her breathing was soft and even, completely unaware of how much my heart ached.I couldn’t stop staring at her. I wanted to reach out and touch her, to pull her close and feel her warmth against me, but I knew better. I’d hurt her, and it was my fault. The guilt was eating me alive, and I couldn’t shake it.Last night had been hell. I’d tried everything to fall asleep—closing my eyes, forcing my mind to go blank, counting backward from a hundred—but nothing worked. Every time I shut my eyes, I saw Lily’s hurt expression when she called me out for kissing Zara. I couldn’t blame her for being upset. I hated myself for letting it happen.It hadn’t meant anything. I never wanted to kiss Zara. She had come into my office looking sad and miserable. I had been goin

    I kept walking, not bothering to check if Kai was following me. I just needed to get away from the mess of emotions swirling inside me. My feet carried me through the hallways until I finally reached his room. Without a second thought, I shoved the door open and stepped inside. The room was dimly lit, but I didn’t bother turning on more lights. I just headed straight for the bathroom, needing a moment to collect myself.Once inside, I closed the door and leaned against it, taking a deep, shaky breath. My heart was still racing from the confrontation with Kai and Rhys, and I couldn’t help but replay it over and over in my head. I pushed those thoughts away and moved to turn on the shower, waiting for the water to warm up before stripping off my clothes.Stepping under the hot spray, I let the water wash away the tension from my muscles. I closed my eyes and tilted my head back, feeling the warmth seep into my skin. My thoughts were still a chaotic mess, but the steady stream of water h
