Dana

I almost pushed Demian away from me because Jeremy's gaze pierced through me.

I felt uncomfortable. But I didn't have the energy to worry too much about it. Demian understood why I did it, but he didn't care about his ex-best friend's presence.

Jeremy handed me the glass of water in silence, and I drank it all. The doctors came to see me and told me they had no idea what was happening to me, so I had to stay in the hospital for a few days.

I refused.

They weren't going to solve my problems, and they didn't know what to do with me, so I preferred to be comfortable at home. Everyone disagreed, even Jeremy, but Demian sided with me. The vein in Jeremy's neck bulged with rage. But Jeremy relented and took me home on the condition that I be on an IV all day to keep my body functioning better. I had to accept.

Three days passed since I was discharged. Three boring days in bed. I felt useless not being able to do anything. They recommended rest. The doctors didn't want me to get out of

    DanaHis delicate touch on my hand gave me chills.Demian smiled at me, and I couldn't help but smile back. It was an intimate moment because it was the first time in a long while that he and I managed to get along for more than ten minutes straight. Demian didn't stop holding my hand, and I was grateful for it inside."Have you had dinner? Do you want me to order something to eat? You need to eat well. What do you feel like having? Do you want dessert? An ice cream?" Demian bombarded me with his questions."I've had dinner. Thanks. But I'm not in the mood to eat. I was thinking of sleeping.""Should I go?" he asked."No, no," I said quickly, stopping him from getting up from the bed. "You can stay a while."There was silence between us. Demian couldn't stop looking at me, and I couldn't stop looking at him."Shouldn't you be with Rachel? She must need you.""Her family is with her. Your father is at my house," he mentioned.That man was my biological father, but I didn't consider him

    DanaWhen I opened my eyes, I noticed the mattress sunken beside me. The room was almost dark, but I recognized Demian's face next to me.It was hard to believe, but we had slept in the same bed after months of not doing so. I could catch every little detail of his face and felt tempted to touch it while he slept. I always had the habit of touching Demian's face when I saw him sleeping, but I no longer had the right to do so.My eyes were not content with just looking at him. My hands had an uncontrollable desire to feel his skin, but I knew I shouldn't do it. I didn't want Demian to wake up. Meanwhile, Demian slept peacefully beside me, and I wondered why he stayed.I remember falling asleep on his shoulder. I cried until I had no energy left. He laid me in bed for my comfort, but I don't know why he stayed with me. He could have left, but he chose to stay with me and keep me company.Demian didn't make it easy for me. While I wanted to forget him, Demian did everything possible not t

    DanaI lost count of how long it had been since I felt my father's arms around me. A lump formed in my throat, but I mustered non-existent strength and promised myself I wouldn't shed a tear in front of him.Dad didn't deserve my tears. He had humiliated me before and hurt my mother. I didn't understand how he had the nerve to come to my mother's house to see me. I didn't want to imagine my mother's face when she saw him standing at her door. I knew they hadn't seen each other in years.Dad tightened his embrace. He stroked my back as if we were close and he was happy to see me. I knew he had some bad intention. I didn't know what he wanted to talk to me about. He and I had nothing to do with each other. He made that clear years ago.I felt confused. I didn't know how he found me here, but I guessed that Demian had told him about my stay at my mother's house. It bothered me that Demian shared that information with my father. He had no reason to do so. Last night, I fell asleep crying

    Dana"Can I know what you're doing, Dana?" my mother asked me seriously."I don't know what you're thinking, Mom, but nothing happened with Demian. The only thing that connects us is our children, and he came to see me because he was worried about me. The question is why did you listen to Jeremy about not letting Demian in? It's not your decision. It's mine. I'm not five years old, Mom.""You refused to leave Jeremy when I told you to. Respect your husband, Dana. When Jeremy returns, Demian can come to see you.""Are you punishing me? Mom, not everything is as easy as you think.""What happened while Demian was here? Because even the sheets smell like his cologne."I was guilty. Demian and I didn't have an intimate moment last night, but he slept in the same bed as me until morning. It wasn't proper for a married woman. If Jeremy did that with a woman, I would be upset. I haven't behaved well. I stopped acting rightly a long time ago."I didn't sleep with him, if that's what you're th

    DanaI didn't have any dressy clothes. I hadn't brought many outfits. I was only supposed to stay at my mom's house for a couple of days, and I didn't plan on going anywhere. But with my father's invitation, everything changed. I didn't have anything elegant to wear, but I decided to relax and put on whatever made me feel comfortable.Dad was going to take me to a fancy restaurant in the city. It was one of my favorite restaurants. I guess he wanted to impress me. It was almost time for my father to pick me up.I checked the time on my phone and noticed I didn't have any messages from Demian. He hadn't shown up all day. And he didn't come back to see me last night, which disappointed me."You look pretty," my mother said with a smile.I had noticed she had been sad since yesterday. Seeing my father hadn't been easy for her. I felt guilty about going to see him while she stayed here."It's casual clothing. I don't look the part for that place," I grimaced."But you look beautiful anywa

    Dana"I have a surprise for you, Dana.""A surprise?" I raised my eyebrows."Yes. You'll see it in a moment."Dad ordered dinner. But he ordered too many dishes for just the two of us."We're two people, Dad. I'm pregnant. But I don't have that much appetite yet.""It's for everyone," he replied.Dad caught the attention of one of the waiters.Everyone? Who was "everyone"?"We're moving to the other table," he informed."What?" I raised my eyebrows.The waiter nodded and left. Dad looked at me with a smile.Dad took my hand and made me stand up. We sat at the long table next to ours."I don't understand, Dad. What are we doing here? We were fine at the other table. This table is reserved.""I reserved it for us," he replied.I heard footsteps behind me. I noticed my father's gaze shifted behind me. Dad's smile widened, and he stood up. I was afraid to turn around to understand what he was looking at, but I guessed what it was.His family? Rachel? His wife? Demian?"Dad?" I asked fearf

    DanaI ran to the bathroom, covering my mouth. I was going to throw up at any moment.I reached the bathroom, went into a stall, and vomited. I felt tears running down my cheeks, but I didn’t pay attention to them. This wasn’t caused by the curse or the pregnancy. The nausea was provoked by their stupid comments, questions, and insistences. It was provoked by my father deceiving me and bringing me to a wedding celebration dinner without asking me.I feel like I should have behaved with dignity and firmness at the table so none of them would achieve their goal, but I couldn’t do it. The situation overwhelmed me, and my emotions overflowed.I held my stomach. It hurt, and the nausea didn’t go away.My stall door opened, and I looked up in horror to see who it was. I thought it was a stranger, but it was Demian who intruded on my privacy. He looked down at me from his tall height while I was crouched against the toilet. He saw my tears and noted my deplorable state. I felt pathetic.“Are

    DanaDemian stopped me from leaving. He took my arm and turned me around to face him.I looked at him expectantly.“What do you want?”“I’ll take you home,” he offered.“And leave your wife at the table? On your wedding night? No, Demian. You have something more important to do. Attend to your wife. She’ll be angry about how you spoke to her earlier. I suppose you know how Rachel gets when she’s angry.”At this moment, I wished Jeremy were near me. I longed for his return and to take refuge in his sincere arms. Because his were truly sincere. I needed to hug him tightly and tell him everything that had happened. I knew he would be upset upon hearing it, but I needed to talk to him. Jeremy was my true companion.Demian called my name, but I didn’t pay attention. I left the bathroom and turned down a hallway. Demian followed me. I saw the table in the distance. I noticed Rachel’s mother saw me. Rachel quickly turned around. Everyone turned to see me.Did they want another round of humil

    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

    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
