Rose's POVWhen I woke up, I was in the same hospital room, surrounded by machines and beeping monitors. My mother was sitting next to me, her face grim and serious."Rose, you're awake," she said, her voice low and gentle."Mom, what happened?" I asked, my voice barely a whisper. The last thing I remembered was seeing blood and nothing else. "You fainted after bleeding last night. The doctors were able to save you from bleeding to death. "How are you feeling now?"I tried to sit up, but a sharp pain shot through my abdomen, making me gasp in pain. My mother quickly helped me to sit up, and the pain slowly subsided."I feel sore all over," I said, my voice shaky. "What happened to me?"My mother sighed and looked down at her hands. "It's because of the baby and the bleeding you had. The doctors would come in soon to check up on you and then we would know what's wrong."After a while, The pain had subsided, and I was able to sit up and move around a bit. A nurse came in with breakfast,
Rose's POV I tried to scream, to protest, but my voice was silenced by the hiss of gas being pumped into the mask covering my face. I felt myself slipping away, the darkness consuming me. When I woke up again, it was daybreak and I was covered in sweat, and my heart was pounding in my chest. I looked around and saw myself in my room, and then I realized it was just a nightmare, but the fear it had instilled in me was all too real. I knew that my father and Luke wouldn't hesitate to abort my pregnancy if Luke and the pack found out. And if my mother couldn't convince them otherwise, I didn't know what I would do.I sat up in bed, my mind racing with worry. I needed to find a way to keep my pregnancy a secret, at least until I figured out a plan. But how? Although the pack was huge, secrets didn't stay hidden for long unless it's under the command of the Alpha.As I lay back down, I couldn't shake the feeling of dread that had settled in the pit of my stomach. My nightmare had shown m
Rose's POVAfter the incident with my father yesterday, I was devastated and unable to sleep peacefully. Everywhere I turned, I saw him, his eyes red with anger, his fists clenched together like he wanted to throw a punch into my body. Despite my pleas, he was bent on believing others over me, especially the rumors about Brandon. Every time I stared deep into his eyes, I could feel his pain, he was hurt by my decision and I couldn't let him be like that. It was all a misunderstanding but he didn't want to listen to Mom or me. I decided to explain everything to him from top to bottom, without any filters. The next day, I got out of bed and headed to the bathroom for a quick bath. Breakfast was brought in by one of the nurses and I declined since I wanted to see my father urgently. As I stepped out, the doctors attending to me alongside the nurse approached me with concern in their eyes. "Hi there, we need to conduct a few tests on you before we can let you go home."My heart sank at
Rose's POVThe kidnapper looked back at me, a wicked smile etched on his face, "If your father searches for you, I'd let you go. As long as you convince him to help me save my children and wife."Then he paused before continuing, "If he doesn't search for you or call back, before the end of the day, I'd kill you before sunrise."I looked at him, fear colored on my face. I knew my father wouldn't come to find me after our last argument. But would that mean this man would kill me?I swallowed hard and took a deep breath. "Okay, I'll do it. I'll try to convince my father to help you." I knew I had to find a way to save myself and my baby.The man nodded, a cruel smile still on his face. "Good. I'll be watching you, so don't try anything stupid."With that, he turned and left the room, leaving me alone with my thoughts. I knew this was going to be a difficult task. My father and I had a falling out and I was supposed to apologize today before I was taken by this man. What was I going to do

My father quickly turned to me, his eyes filled with concern but he didn't say anything.I stared in horror as the man remained on the ground, lifeless. I couldn't believe that I had just witnessed someone's death, even if he was a kidnapper and had tried to harm me.My father wrapped his arm around me, pulling me close, and whispered, "It's okay. You're safe now." Then he sent for someone to bring my mother while he scanned the surroundings.I felt a sense of relief wash over me as I realized that the nightmare was finally over. But at the same time, I couldn't shake off the feeling of guilt that I had somehow caused someone's death.As if killing someone was a piece of cake, my father walked away
Rose's POVAs I cried harder, asking her what to do, my mother hugged me tightly and whispered soothing words in my ear, "It's okay, my dear. You don't have to make any decisions right now. We will figure this out together. I will speak to your father."Her words provided me with a sense of relief and comfort, and I held onto her tightly. I didn't want her to leave, but I knew she had to go meet my father and try to reason with him.As my mother left, she promised to come back with a solution and urged me to rest and take care of myself. I lay in bed, trying to process everything that had happened. My mind was a whirlwind of emotions, fear, and confusion.I wondered what my father would do if I refused to abort the baby. Would he really cast me out of the pack?

Rose's POV.My heart sank hearing my father lash out at my mother because of me and as I turned around to leave, his voice rang again and I stopped in my tracks, my heart beating faster."Rose, enter my office now!” he ordered and I stopped immediately. He must have sensed my presence earlier but he didn't care as he still said everything despite knowing I heard him.I turned around and took a deep breath, then I walked slowly, taking baby steps towards his office. My hands were vibrating as I reached out to turn the doorknob and pushed the door open.As soon as I stepped into his office, my father's gaze bore into me, his eyes cold and unforgiving.

I couldn't read his expression, and it made me all the more nervous."You have brought shame to this pack, Rose
Rose's POVThe moon hung high in the night sky, casting an ethereal glow over the forest as I ventured deeper into the wilderness from the residential area of the pack. Every step I took felt heavy, laden with uncertainty and fear. The familiar sounds of nature surrounded me, the rustling leaves, the hooting of owls, and the distant howls of wolves. They used to offer me comfort and peace but they no longer offered me any. They served as a reminder of the life I had left behind, the life I had chosen to abandon.To conceal my identity, I pulled up the hood of my cloak, its dark fabric blending seamlessly with the shadows. I had to be cautious, aware that anyone I encountered could be a threat. The pack I had grown up with would surely come after me, seeking to bring me back and punish me for my defiance. But I couldn't allow that to happen. My child's safety depended on my ability to remain hidden.The forest grew denser as I continued my solitary trek. My senses sharpened, and my he
