Chapter 2

******Myra's POV******

"Leave this pack, and never dare to come back here again. If you dare return to this pack again and try to jeopardize my reign, rest assured, your death will be swift and merciless." Dorian's words rang in my ears again and again as he turned around and walked out of the garden.

I was instantly paralyzed by fear of his threat. He wanted me to leave the pack and never return, which meant that I wasn't allowed to show my face to his parents either.

He would kill me if I did.

My wolf, phoenix, howled in pain at the rejection that just took place. She was clearly angered as well.

"How dare he?!" She growled.

I ignored her and just turned to walk back to my bedroom.

My heart was heavy with pains and sorrows.

I was this close to going nuts from everything that was happening.

If I had known that things would turn out this way, I would never have listened to Dorian the first time he asked me to lay with him.

Now I was left pregnant and rejected by the same man who promised me the entire world and made me feel special amongst my kind.

I heard rumors around the pack that the Alpha was soon going to be mated to the lady from the Blackwood family, Dahlia Blackwood. But I shrugged the news off as just a rumor and went about the pack duties as usual.

Each time I got scarred from cleaning and scrubbing the hard floors of the living room, I would come to report to Dorian about it, showing the injuries I got from each task.

He would often kiss my hair and tell me to endure for a while. He would tell me that soon, I would become the Luna of the pack and I would punish all the maids who treated me unfairly.

I lived with that hope for all these while and just when I thought everything was falling into place for me, Dorian crushed all the hope I held on to like a life line.

The heaviness in my heart and the pain I felt was unbearable. The moment I walked into my little bedroom, I collapsed unto my knees and cried my whole heart out.

I questioned everyone for how they treated me.

My parents abandoned me at the door step of the Wildwood pack, Dorian who gave me hope when I felt all hope was lost, him also coming to crush that little hope he offered, leaving me shattered and a shell of my own self.

"Myra don't cry." I heard phoenix say to me, but if I didn't cry, I would never feel better.

Well, even if I cried, the pains would never go away.

"How could he do this?" I asked her, my voice barely above a whisper.

She sighed inwards, not able to give me a firm response.

"Myra, he asked us to leave this pack." She said Instead.

I hummed in response, shutting my eyes as that particular statement of killing me came back to my mind.

"Yes, and that is exactly what i would do." I replied, pulling my knees up.

Phoenix snorted, "Definitely not, we're not leaving." She said to my surprise.

I frowned at that statement.

"What?"

"Yes, we're not leaving. He doesn't want his parents to find out that he got you pregnant so that his coronation ceremony would go smoothly, so we should ruin it for him." She reasoned.

I replayed her words in my head and for some odd reason, it did make sense to me. Her words made a lot of sense.

I knew the Alpha and the Luna to be people who loved fairness. Even though they wouldn’t accept me as their daughter in-law, I would still get a chance to be noticed and I would be offered a good life as well.

So it was the best decision to inform them about my pregnancy.

"You're so right, Nix." I said as a new ray of light shown in my darkened world.

“I would definitely go to inform them about this." I said and stood up from the ground.

"That's more like it. They would understand."

With determination, I dashed out of the room and straight downstairs to the court yard where I knew the Luna and the Alpha would be present in.

Just as I thought, they weren't alone when I arrived.

Dorian was present, but he wasn't sitting alone too.

My heart clenched when I saw his arms wrapped around a very beautiful looking lady.

With smiles on their faces, they spoke to the Luna and the Alpha who were seated opposite them.

Seeing me walk in, they all paused the conversation they were having.

Dorian's eyes met mine and his eyes went wide in shock.

Then his gaze darkened, as if guessing why I was there.

I was fidgeting with the hem of my skirt and hurriedly lowered my gaze. Did he think he could just ruin my life and reject me just like that?

"Yes, Myra? What is wrong?" The Luna asked me, her gentle voice gave me the confidence I was trying to gather.

I looked up at her and into her clear dark eyes that resembled that of Dorian's.

A small smile still evident on her lips.

"Luna…." I paused, unable to find my voice and the courage I thought I came with.

My breath hitched when my gaze shifted to Dorian's hand holding that pretty lady.

The nerve of him to hold another woman.

"Myra? Are you alright?" The Alpha asked this time, a concerned look in his eyes.

I nodded and opened my mouth to speak again.

But before i could form words, Dorian beat me to it.

"Get lost if you have nothing to say." His words had a hidden meaning to it, one that was particularly directed at me.

I clenched my fist, averted my gaze from his and turned back to look at the Alpha and Luna.

"Alpha, Luna, I am pregnant for Dorian."
