Rejected: the secret babies of the alpha 27: Goodbye
Dana "Do you expect me to believe that curse exists? Dana, those are stupid lies people have made up over the years," he opined, but he had no idea. I wished what Demian said was real, but a feeling in my chest screamed that I was right. The curse was real, and I saw it in myself every day. My health was deteriorating every day. Doctors attributed certain symptoms to pregnancy, but they said there was something wrong with me, and they couldn't find an answer. "Why do you think the doctors don't know what's wrong with me, Demian?" He narrowed his eyes. "You said you know. You told me you're anemic and you'll get better," Demian recalled. The weight of my lies fell upon me. "I lied to you so you wouldn't bother me," I admitted. Demian remained silent, looking at me. Part of him didn't believe me, but another part did. I noticed something strange in his gaze. Was it guilt? Remorse? Was he going to apologize to me for what he did? I lowered my gaze for a moment. It was hard to ke

DanaI was glad that Demian and I could finally reach a mutual agreement without fighting. But I felt sad because I had no idea about Jeremy. After the voicemail I left him, I've been waiting for a response from him, but he hasn't spoken to me. I felt disappointed, but part of me understood Jeremy.Demian returned to my house a day later with plane tickets in his hands. Demian had been behaving decently since I agreed to go with him. It was peaceful to talk to him without arguing, but it still felt strange."Have you told Rachel that I'm going with you to the city?" I felt nervous."No. You asked me not to, and I didn't. I don't like hiding anything from her, but I didn't tell her," he replied.It was stupid to think about it, but it was painful to hear that he didn't like hiding anything from Rachel. He deceived me and didn't tell me until later. He did hide things from me. I suppose she was more special to him. Otherwise, Demian wouldn't have left me. But who wants a man like that b

DanaOur flight took off. Jeremy switched seats with a guy to sit next to me. Rachel and Demian were a few seats away. If Jeremy hadn't been with me, I wouldn't have been able to sleep peacefully. But I held onto his arm and slept deeply for a couple of hours until we were about to take off. It had been a long time since I slept soundly. When we arrived, Demian told Jeremy that I could stay at Demian and Rachel's house. I looked at him as if he were crazy. I would never stay at their house with both of them. Jeremy refused and said he arranged for a house in California before our flight took off. Jeremy, like Demian, was a wealthy and powerful man. Demian dropped off Rachel in the car and approached me. "Can we talk, Dana?" Demian asked. I looked at Jeremy. "Does it have to be now? I'd like to go to my new house to rest. I'm exhausted and feel dizzy from the flight." "Call me for anything you need, Dana. You have my number. Use it. I'll come visit you daily." "You don't nee

DanaI thought about Demian. Thinking about him was something I did recurrently, as my brain couldn't stop reminding me of what happened months ago.Being back in the city was a last-minute decision. I didn't have time to process how painful it would be to return. I loved being in my city, because I could reconnect with my mother and explain the situation to her. But every corner of this city reminded me of why I left. And what Demian did to me.I have to admit that I wanted to see Demian's reaction when he found out that his former best friend and I would get married. I wanted him to suffer as I suffered when I found out that Demian would marry Rachel, and they would have a child. I know my attitude was childish, but my heart still hurt for everything that happened between us. Resentment consumed me. I couldn't control it.I wanted to be the one to tell him, but my attitude was a desperate act."My mother won't like us getting married, Jeremy. I don't think she'll agree to our marria

Dana It's been a few days since I returned to the city. Demian visited my house to make sure I was feeling well. I told him he could call to ask, but he insisted on getting me used to his constant visits. I noticed Demian acting strange. Maybe something wrong was happening in his life. I used to be sure of what was going on with him. We used to tell each other everything, but we became strangers. I felt like screaming at Demian about my marriage. In a few hours, Jeremy and I had an appointment at the registry office to get married. He took care of paying people to be our witnesses and make sure no one would hinder our marriage. I have to admit I felt nervous. I didn't even feel this nervous when I married Demian. I think my heart was trying to sabotage our plans. Seeing Demian made my heart ache. "Is there something you need to tell me, Dana?" Demian asked. My heart raced. What if he found out the truth? "What do you mean?" I replied. "About your health. Are you okay?" "Yes
Rejected: the secret babies of the alpha 32: Do you love her?
DemianI hated the idea of Jeremy being in town with Dana. He wasn't supposed to be here. When I found out he was in love with her and we argued, Jeremy promised he would never return to town to forget about Dana. But they reconnected, and she gave him a chance.I know it was my ego talking, but I hated that he was close to Dana. He wanted to take care of her and protect her, even wanted to be the man of her life. Anger consumed me when I thought about them together. The couple they made disgusted me. I couldn't understand how Dana could be with Jeremy. She had no sense of honor and got involved with my best friend.I would never forgive Dana for keeping me away from my children nor for her romance with Jeremy. Maybe she started a relationship with him just to spite me. Did she want revenge? Was she trying to rub it in my face that she was happy with him?I prayed that their relationship wouldn't last. I wanted to separate them, and I knew I shouldn't. But I would find a way to break

Rachel and I had been arguing a lot lately. Since Dana reappeared in my life, Rachel had been nervous all the time. Since our last fight about the lawsuit, we haven't spoken. We hadn't even slept in the same bed. Rachel sent me to the guest room.Rachel was a complicated woman. We couldn't talk without fighting. I preferred not to upset her. Maybe Rachel needed space to think and calm down.I visited Dana at her house. I noticed she seemed strange and nervous. Jeremy practically kicked me out of the house. Dana ran toward the stairs. She looked like she was in a hurry."I suppose you don't think you'll get away with it, do you?" I asked Jeremy. We were outside his house."Excuse me?""With Dana. I hope you don't think you'll be together forever because I won't allow it."He laughed. But I was serious. I didn't smile. I looked at him sternly."Do you find this funny?""I find what you're doing very funny, Demian. Is this a threat? Do you think I care what you do? Dana and I will be tog

Dana Jeremy blocked my view of Demian as he walked up to me. “Dana! Here you are.” “What’s going on?” I asked him, wanting to talk about what I had just seen. “You saw Demian here, right? Rachel came with him too.” “Yeah,” I replied, feeling uneasy and looking down. I felt uncomfortable with their presence here. I didn’t want them to ruin my special night, but we could use the opportunity to announce that we were married. “Do you want to use this opportunity to announce our marriage? Or should I tell the security guards to kick them out?” “Let’s make the announcement. But let’s do it for our love, not because of them,” I lied. To announce our wedding, Jeremy and I printed golden cards with the announcement. We wanted to do something different. Jeremy asked the staff to distribute the envelopes with the cards to all the guests. No one could open them until Jeremy and I said so. Jeremy took my hand, and we walked together to the center of the dance floor. My husband took the mi

DanaThe wedding night has finally arrived. The long wait would end in less than an hour.I looked at my long, white, expensive, tailor-made dress. It was strange to get married for the second time, but we both decided to leave the past behind and focus on a new future. I'm not going to lie and say it's easy, because it isn't. But we've tried. We've done it together.Our relationship has strengthened after everything we've been through. Demian has become a better partner. Even better than in our past marriage.

DanaThe first month without him was hard. Without my mother's support, I would never have been able to move forward.The second month was terrifying. I cried so much. I don't know how I didn't become dehydrated.In the third month, my children were already so strong, and the doctors discharged us from the hospital, and we went home, where a four-year-old brother was waiting for us. I took care of Demian's little son because he was left alone. Rachel abandoned him, and he needed a mother. That little boy was not to blame for having a mother like Rachel, so I took care of him as if he were my own son. I know Demian would have loved that.The fourth month was just as painful as the third. I couldn't accept that he wasn't near me. I missed him so much. There wasn't a day when I didn't cry over his departure. I wondered if he was okay. Was he alive? Did he miss us? What did Rachel do to him?In the fifth month, I visited Jeremy's grave almost every day, asking him to help bring Demian hom

DanaI suddenly opened my eyes and sat up in bed, gasping. I coughed non-stop, and my mother was worried about me. I touched my abdomen and noticed that my belly was no longer the same as before. I frowned and looked at my mom."What happened? Where are my children?""The babies are alive in the maternity and baby room. They are in an incubator, daughter" my mom explained, stroking my hair.My babies... my children had been born, and I had been asleep the whole time. I wanted to touch and kiss them. I needed to see and meet them. Their faces, their little hands, and feet. My eyes filled with tears. Finally, I was a mother. Finally, I could meet them.I begged to be allowed to see them. Mom said she would call the doctor to have me taken to see my children. I had never felt such great excitement. I felt energetic like I hadn't felt in a long time."Don't strain yourself. You just came out of a complicated surgery. You have to stay calm. We'll wait for the doctor. Okay?"A surgery? Why
Rejected: the secret babies of the alpha 147: Wait for me
DemianI looked for the address where a black car with tinted windows would pick me up. Rachel's henchmen were coming for me to take me to her. That was the deal. I understood we were going to leave the city and the country so no one could find us. It was madness to leave the country and have no further contact with my family, Dana, or any information about my children. But that was the deal I made with Rachel so she would tell me how to save Dana. I trusted the maid would be of great help to Dana, my son, and my other two children. I wanted to believe everything would be fine while I was gone, but I wasn't sure of it.Nerves were eating me slowly and anxiety was my worst enemy. The star-filled sky didn't match the horrible feeling in my heart today.They picked me up and put a bag over my head. Another rule was not to resist the kidnapping they were going to perform. So I stayed still. I felt a prick on my neck and it took hold of my skin. I grimaced. That wasn't part of the deal, bu

DemianI had to make a quick decision to save Dana. I had to leave or stay with Dana while she died slowly. There was no certainty in Rachel's words, but I had to do something for Dana, and I believe the maid was right all along. If being with Rachel was the key to Dana's survival, I was going to do it. I had to take that risk. I had seen her die before my eyes. I couldn't let that happen again and have it be permanent. Dana and my children needed me. What kind of man was I if I couldn't protect my family from this hell? What kind of man was I if I couldn't keep them alive?I had to accept going with Rachel, but first, I had to make sure the surgery was successful. Hours passed without any answers. A doctor approached Dana's mother, and I went to listen to what happened."What happened? I'm Dana's husband. How is she? My children?""We delivered the babies, and they are alive, but they need to be monitored in incubators for a while, as their organs are still developing. Ideally, the b

DemianDana's heart stopped suddenly while we were talking. Her eyes were fixed on mine, but she was no longer moving. I was terrified. I felt a fear like I had never felt in my life. Anguish took over my body, dragging me down the path of pain. My chest tightened as I realized she was gone. Dana was gone. Someone had to do something. They had to bring my beloved back to me. I couldn't live without her because living without Dana was like being dead in my own life.I took her face in my hands as I heard the long beep of the machine connected to Dana. I searched for something to help her, but I didn't know how. No one prepares anyone for this. Not even I, a powerful Alpha, could escape such immense pain."Dana, no... No!" I shouted. "Don't go! You can't go! I won't allow it. Not like this. Please," I begged. I had never begged anyone for anything in my life, but for Dana, I was willing to do anything.I would give my life for hers. I was willing to take her place and her pain so that s

DemianDana went crazy when she found out that Thomas had died, but I can't blame her. I feel the same way, but I try to find a balance between my emotions because one of us has to be strong for the other. I promised Dana that I would always be there for her, and this was a way to fulfill my words. News like this could make Dana lose the babies. I knew something was wrong when we entered the house and everyone looked at us strangely. Dana noticed and figured it out."How is this possible? Rachel has henchmen. She has people she pays. Her parents disappeared, so they must be helping her do everything she does. Otherwise, it doesn't make sense. How is it possible that Rachel has so many people on her side? Again, it must be her father paying thugs to do the dirty work. Someone had to take the body to that wasteland, and I know she wouldn't do it alone.""We've made calls to the police, and they're still investigating. It's a matter of finding her, Demian.""This nightmare won't end unti

DanaWe took a walk around the house to have a moment of privacy. The house was huge, and we walked slowly because of my pregnancy. My belly was heavy, but the dress was comfortable for walking as it was not tight. Since my belly had grown so much, I had to get large and new clothes because what I used to wear no longer fit me. The doctors forbade me from wearing tight clothes. When Demian and I returned home, Thomas was there, looking worried. He seemed completely upset. Demian also noticed and asked him what was wrong. Demian looked at me. I know he didn't want me to find out certain things so that I wouldn't worry and get hurt. Demian became overly protective of me when he found out my children were his.Demian and I returned to the mansion, and the pack was still there, but not all of them. I didn't want everyone to show us with their expressions that something bad had happened.I intended to ask what happened, but Demian asked me to go back to my room to change. He also noticed t

DemianI thought about Dana during the night. I fell asleep next to her. I protected her with my arms and lost myself in the scent of her perfume. It had been a long time since I had slept so comfortably with someone. At that moment, I knew: I didn’t want to be away from her and I wasn’t going to, not even for what Rachel asked of me. I wanted to marry Dana today.I got up early in the morning and asked a notary to come to the house to marry Dana and me. She had no idea about this. I didn’t want to wait any longer to be her husband. I don’t know how things will continue after Rachel’s request and the conversation I had with the maid. I know she was right, and I had to put priorities on the table for the sake of the pack. But Dana was one of my priorities. She was the most important person alongside my children. And I couldn’t leave my son alone. If I left, Dana would be alone and have no one to trust.I made a promise to Dana. I promised her that I wouldn’t leave her and I wouldn’t ab
