ALPHA ALEXANDER’s POV…I gasped as I stared at Ariana angrily. This woman just set me up.“You…” I gritted my teeth as I tied my robe. “We’ll talk about this later, Ariana.” I told her as I made to go after my little breeche, but before I could go, she grabbed my hand as she made to pull me for a kiss, but I was quick to turn away from her as I pushed her aside.“I am respecting you because I owe your family a lot, Ariana, but don’t push it.” I told her as again, I made to run after my little breeche, but before I could, she grabbed me again.“You’re mine, Alex. When are you going to understand this?” She asked me and I rolled my eyes.It was ridiculous trying to talk to her. She would never understand. I had to get to my little breeche and explain to her that it wasn’t what it looked like. Damn it!I should have just called a guard to throw Ariana out. Why did I have to go myself, especially when I was still wet from the shower? Ariana must have planned all of this.I rushed after my
ARIANA’s POV….I groaned in anger and frustration as I kicked against the bed, anger seething through me.What was I to do now? I couldn’t let this slip, not at all. I had to get Alex and I was going to make sure I did that.I walked to the mirror in the room as I stared at myself in it. I caressed my hair as I tucked it behind my ear. What was it she had that I didn’t?Aside the fact that I wasn’t his mate like she was, what was there in her that he had chosen her over me without even thinking twice?I bit my lips, shaking my head as I leaned in to the mirror, caressing my cheeks as I shook my head.No! The mate bond couldn’t have driven him that crazy that he was willing to risk everything just to be with that pathetic omega, could it?I clicked my tongue, shaking my head as memories of that night came back to mind. The night I had made a fool of myself by trying to make Amelia think that something had happened between Alexander and I.When he had left me that night to go after her
AMELIA’s POV…As Alex caught me in his arms, I took in a deep inhale as again, a deep wave of nausea caught me and I gasped as I rushed back to the bushes, pouring out everything in my now empty stomach while I coughed.He came as he held my hair up for me, letting me empty it out even more as he patted my back.“We need to go see a doctor. You don’t look well.” He told me as I washed my face and drank some water, but I shook my head.“No. There’s no need for that. I am fine. The past few days have been extremely stressful for me, both mentally and…” I sighed and he seemed to understand where I was headed.I knew that whatever was making me super sleepy, tired, dizzy, and nauseous wasn’t related to stress, but with Alex having all these issues with Ariana and now Alpha Tim, I didn’t want to add to it all.He turned me to himself as with his thumb, he wiped my lips, pulling me closer to himself as he hugged me and as he hugged me, my arms wrapping around him, I felt myself start to get
AMELIA’s POV…I burst into laughter as I pushed him away while I started to feel some pain in my stomach.“You’re so silly, you know.” I told him and I nodded as I rushed to the cupboard, taking out a chocolate bar as I handed it over to him.He took it as he stared at me, like he was waiting for me to speak. “What’s this for?” He asked me and I smiled.“I had gotten three the other day. One for me, and for Lilly and then you.” I said to him with a smile and he chuckled as he put it in his pocket, running his fingers through his hair as he let out an exhale.“This is funny, yet heartbreaking, isn’t it?” He asked me and I tucked my hair behind my ear as I stared at him, confused.“How, though?” I asked him as I took out the one I had bought for myself. “You don’t like chocolate?” I gasped as I kept mine aside. “I’m sorry. I know I don’t know much about you yet but….”“Not that…” he said as he grabbed my hand, moving closer to me. So close that it actually felt uncomfortable.I stared a
AMELIA’s POV…I ran my fingers through my hair, sweeping my hair back as I chuckled with one look at Ariana. I could feel some trickles of blood coming out of my nose because that file hit me hard, but I didn’t say anything.Like she wasn’t even there, I walked to the cupboard as I grabbed a tissue. I placed it to my nose as I wiped the blood while still holding it to my nose and she seemed to understand that with what she had done, with one wrong move, I wouldn’t hesitate to slap her so she just stayed out.I threw the tissue into the trash can as I sighed before going to pick the file, walking to her as I grabbed her hand, extending her hand as I placed the file in her hand.“If you hand something to talk to me about, Ariana, you can say it to my face. You’re lucky it’s just a wounded nose. I wouldn’t take it so lightly if it had hit my eye.” I told her and with that, I turned to leave, but before I could, she grabbed my hand, pulling me back into the room and I stared at her, unsur
AMELIA’s POV…For a moment, I was in disbelief. I couldn’t believe it. It felt like my world stopped for a moment, but then, when the doctor’s words came back to mind, I gasped.“You’re pregnant!” Her words resonated in my head and I screamed for joy as I grabbed Kevin, hugging him tightly as I squealed for joy.Tears streamed down my cheeks as I got out of the bed. Even though I was weak, I dragged Kevin as I twirled him while I clapped.In no time, I got tired and I fell back to the bed as I placed my hand to my stomach, tears streaming down my cheeks as I looked down at it.“Congratulations, Amelia.” Kevin told me and I nodded.“This is the first trimester of your pregnancy so you’re going to have to be extremely careful. It seems you’ve been under a lot of stress. That has to stop because it’s extremely harmful for the baby.” She told me as she handed me a container.I took it as I stared at it, still in shock that soon, by grace, I would be a mother, having my own baby in my arms
AMELIA’s POV…I went through the final summary of what I had spent the whole day preparing and once I was sure of what I had prepared, I handed it to Alex who was preparing to go for another meeting.“Here you go.” I told him and he took it as he stared at me, waiting for me to explain what it was but I didn’t. I just gestured at him to check what it was about and he nodded.He went through the file and when he was done, he raised his head to stare at me, shocked. “You… you prepared this for me?” He asked me and I nodded as I smiled.“That little business deal might not have “affected you”, but I know a little bit of you is still thinking about it so that’s a proposal I spent all night making. I have weighed all the pros and cons and I hope you can give it some thought, too.” I told him and he smiled as he got off his seat, coming to me as he held my hand.“My little breeche prepared it. Why wouldn’t I give it thought?” He asked me and I smiled.We spoke for some time before Ivan cam
AMELIA’s POV…FEW DAYS LATER…I ran my fingers through my hair as I fell back to the bed, staring at the wall clock, waiting for it to be eight so I could go get Lilly from her friend’s. I turned to the side and I saw my pendant’s reflection in the mirror.Seeing it, I forced a smile as I caressed it, taking it off as I opened it and staring at our pictures~ mine, Alex’s and Lilly’s, alongside the blank space that would be for our baby, I couldn’t help but let the tears stream down my cheeks.It had been days since Alex and I last spent time with each other.I knew I didn’t have to be this worried because as Alpha, he would definitely have a lot of things he was working on, but I still couldn’t help but feel lonely.I looked down at my stomach as I caressed it, putting my pendant on as I sighed.“Daddy doesn’t know you exist yet, but don’t worry, mummy is going to tell him soon, so don’t be mad at mummy, hmm?” I spoke to my stomach as tears streamed down my cheeks.Honestly, as fun as
