Natalia was startled. Her hand was close to her belly. She slowly placed her palm on her belly while staring at Adrian."Why don't we need another? That will be our child, Adrian."Adrian frowned at her and asked,“Do you want to have another one? Natalia, we now have an heir and an heiress. I don't want another child. You and the twins are enough for me."Natalia felt her heart trembling from within. Before even getting to know about the news of the unborn child, he was telling her that it would be an unwanted child.Her eyes turned blurry as she looked away from him. She slowly rose up from the bed."Where are you going?" Adrian asked.She turned away from him. Biting her lower lip to control her tears, she took a deep breath and replied,"I will be back after a while."After saying that, she left the bedroom.Tears rolled down from her eyes. She wiped her tears while heading to the balcony.She ran into Amanda along the way."I didn't tell Alpha's parents about Noah's fever as you
Benjamin was shocked after hearing Natalia.“What are you saying? I think you are mistaken. Alpha is not like that.”Natalia looked away from him. She was also taken aback when she heard Adrian's words.“What did Alpha tell you?” Benjamin inquired, seeking to understand the true circumstances.Natalia remained silent as her eyes roamed around in search of a way to pause, just like her mind.When Benjamin noticed that she was not replying, he asked another question,“Did you tell him that you are pregnant?”Natalia looked at him and shook her head in response.“Then? How can you tell that he doesn't want this child?”Natalia wiped her eyes and mumbled,“He said he doesn't want another child.”Benjamin raised his brows. “Natalia, you need to tell him about your pregnancy. Maybe he will change his perspective.”Natalia clutched the railing, believing that even if Adrian agreed to take this child, it would be a compromise for him.She stayed quiet for a while. She thought that she could n
Adrian was sitting on the bed. His gaze lingered on the closed door ever since Natalia had left the room.Cloudiness crept into his eyes. His expression changed from calm to fierce. He took a quick glance at Aria and then Noah.He slowly lowered Aria's head onto the pillow next to Noah and got out of bed.He made his way to the door to leave the room. However, his steps came to a halt. He turned his head to look at the twins.His hands tightened around the doorknob. He drew a deep breath and released the doorknock.He turned around and walked over to the couch near the bed.He reached into his pocket and pulled out a pack of cigarettes. He took out one cigarette and placed it between his lips.His eyes were once again forced to gaze at the twins. He clenched his teeth around the cigarette.His hands shook when he put down the cigarette. He threw the cigarette to the floor as if he were in anger.His eyes turned red.The handsome face that had always caught everyone's attention became
Natalia hurried over to Hazel and took a close look at her. "What happened to her?" she asked.Benjamin gazed at Hazel with a frown. He got down on his knees and patted her cheek lightly.“Are you pretending in front of us? Then don’t do that, because we don’t have the time to appreciate your acting.”Benjamin's words stunned Natalia. She put her hand on his shoulder and said,"Benjamin, she passed out. Pick her up."Benjamin did not have any interest in doing so. But since it was Natalia's order, he would have to do it.He lifted Hazel and proceeded to the room where she was staying. Natalia followed him behind.On their way, a few maids noticed them.The maids rushed to a room and knocked on the door.Grace opened the door and looked at the maids."Why are you here at this hour? Is everything okay?" Grace asked them.The maid could tell that she was sleeping by observing her drowsy expression. The maids glanced at Alpha Martin, who had also woken up by the knock."Let them in, Grace
When the maids arrived at Hazel's bedroom, they discovered that Natalia and Gamma Benjamin were standing outside of the room."W-We saw that Miss Hazel looked unconscious; is she okay?" A senior maid questioned Natalia.Natalia answered with a shake of her head,"Don't know. Maybe she is having a difficult time adjusting to the weather here. She is from a whole different place."Natalia's tone was calm and polite. Though she was their soon-to-be Luna and a woman with Alpha rank, she always talked to the senior maids politely. She never behaved rudely with young maids either. Because of the uniqueness of her aura, people were compelled to bow down in front of her, despite the fact that she had not yet been officially declared to be the Luna of this pack."What is going on inside?" A young maid asked."Why are you even asking? Go back to your rooms, everyone," Benjamin replied with a cold tone.The maids immediately lowered their heads. Their gamma was hot blooded, and they did not want
Everyone in the room was shocked. Natalia shifted her gaze at Hazel and thought,‘Pregnant? She is unmarried. Does she have a lover? Do her family members know about it?’Many questions popped into her head. She thought they could not keep Hazel in their pack any longer. But again, she thought Hazel was afraid to tell her family about it and came here to take shelter."Impossible!"Alpha Martin's loud and angry voice echoed throughout the room. It caused Natalia to turn around to face him."This woman can't be pregnant. Examine her again. I think she needs to go to the pack hospital. We need a clear check for this. We can't just believe–""Dad, what are you saying?" Natalia interrupted him.His behavior was confusing her. "He is a senior doctor from our pack hospital. I personally called him. Our private physician can't check on anyone except our family, so I request him to come and check Hazel. He can't be wrong."Alpha Martin closed his mouth. Grace walked toward the bed and looked
Natalia was only in disbelief, but when she heard Hazel, she felt as if the ground had moved beneath her feet.A dizziness gripped her head. Suddenly, her legs started shaking, and they became unbalanced. She was on the verge of falling to the floor. Gamma Benjamin rushed over to her and wrapped his arms around her shoulders."Natalia, are you okay?"As she struggled to maintain consciousness, Natalia clung to his arm with all her might. Her eyes began to well up with tears, but she was adamant about not allowing them to flow out her eyes.He turned his head to look at her and then moved closer to her. Natalia pushed his hand away from her hand when he tried to hold it.Her gaze did not meet his eyes, nor did she look at his face. She did not have the courage to do it.Was there anything left after so many years of suffering?"Adrian, is that true? Is this child yours?" Grace, Adrian's mother asked.While Adrian was staring at Natalia, he clenched his jaw tightly. His mother did not r
It appeared as though Hazel was struggling to catch her breath. She made an effort to move his hand away while holding it. However, he was so powerful that she could not just break free of his hold on her neck. She patted his hand, trying to push his hand.But soon she came to the realization that she could triumph over his strength. She closed her eyes tightly. When she opened them again, her eyes were glowing green.There was no longer any sign of innocence in those emerald eyes. Something was burning inside that could have destroyed anything.She gave his hand a quick glance before firmly grabbing his wrist.Adrian hissed as if he was experiencing a burning sensation around his wrist. But he did not want to leave her easily this time.As Hazel tightened her hold on Adrian's wrist, he felt a jerkiness throughout his body. A groan came out of his mouth as he immediately released her throat.When he looked at his wrist, he noticed that it was swollen and looked almost burned.He glare
