The Alpha's Pet 33
ELARIAN I was stunned at how things had changed so rapidly. The napkin I used to hide my mark from the public was gone, and Blair was staring at me with a look in her eyes that hadn’t been there a while ago. It was as if she could see right through me and suddenly knew that everything she thought she knew about me was a lie.“What’s your real name?” she asked with a strict tone that left me staring at her in disbelief, unable to recover quickly from the incident.“And what could have possibly made that mark on your neck?” She took a step closer, and that sudden movement snapped me out of my trance so quickly that I immediately stepped away from her and wrapped the napkin back around my neck.“It’s nothing,” I responded with a dismissive tone, but she clearly wasn’t willing to settle for an excuse like that.Although it was clear she still had a lot on her mind, she stayed quiet for a few seconds, maintaining eye contact. When she finally looked away, her eyes slowly dropped from mine

ELARIAN “What did he mean by that!” a voice yelled inside my head, making the pain intensify. The light throbbing in my head worsened, and I was forced to make a sound—a low grunt that didn’t slip past the doctor’s notice. His attention turned to me almost immediately, and Blair followed his gaze. Even though my vision was still blurry and my entire body felt like it had just been hit by a truck, I could still make out their expressions.As soon as my eyes took in my surroundings properly, I realized Tom was the owner of the familiar voice I had heard—he was the doctor.“Oh… you’re awake,” Blair said, smiling down at me as she gently stroked my hand, as if the doctor hadn’t just told her that I was pregnant.“I was so scared back there. Thought you had an attack or something, but it turns out you’re just pregnant,” she added, and the excited tone at the end of her voice didn’t slip past my notice.“What!”“I know, right? I was shocked too, but we have enough time to find out the baby

AEROS “How much longer do we have to wait?” I asked Jonathan as I paced the length of the open field where we were told to wait for the nerdy-looking rogue leader who had gone on a mission to retrieve Elarian from the human world.“I don’t know,” Jonathan replied, a worried expression on his face. He had a faraway look in his eyes as he stared at the horizon, searching for any sign of their approach, but there was nothing to see.“Their message said they would be here before our arrival, and if they weren’t, they’d arrive shortly after,” he added.I noticed how on edge Jonathan was, likely contemplating the possibility of an attack from the rogues. He slowly turned around to glance at the strategic location of the guards he had brought along.“Relax. They can’t do anything to us, not while I’m here with you. They might be rogues, but they know better than to attempt to cross paths with us,” I said, tapping his shoulder reassuringly.“I can tell you’re also worried, you know.”“I’m no

ELARIAN I kept running deep into the woods with no idea where I was headed. I didn’t stop to breathe, nor did I stop to pull the thorns poking at me through the holes in my dress because I was desperate to get away from them.I overheard one of the men talking about using me to get to Aeros, which didn’t make sense because they had claimed to have saved me on his orders. That was when I realized they weren’t on my side and decided to escape.Security wasn’t tight, and the house was too old and rickety to hold someone hostage without proper surveillance, so I easily slipped past the guards and made a run for it.I didn’t know how long I had been running, but it was beginning to get dark. My legs ached, and my entire body felt like it had been run over by a truck. I wished for nothing more than to crawl up somewhere and sleep, so I finally stopped to catch my breath. After making sure no one was after me, I cleared a spot under a tree and sat down.I questioned myself: Was it really a

ELARIAN Was I ready to do this? I asked myself that question over and over again as I paced the length of the hallway, occasionally stopping in front of the room where Vienna was. She was in there with the woman who assured me she could help me get rid of the pregnancy without complications.My heart pounded so fast it felt like it might rip out of my chest at any moment.Suddenly, the door creaked open, and Vienna poked her head out, "Come on in, she’s ready for you now."She held the door wide open, and I walked in, struggling to keep myself together. When I heard her turn the lock behind me, I spun around sharply."Just for privacy," she reassured me, noticing the concerned and petrified look on my face.An unexpectedly young woman sat on a couch-like bed at the far end of the room. On the small table beside her were six tablets and a sparkling glass of water."The pills should be enough to get the job done, but if the father is an Alpha, you might need more than a few pills to ge

AEROS Three Months Later,Three whole months had passed, and I still had not found her. I had searched every single pack in the neighboring areas and beyond, and there was no sign of her. It was as if she had disappeared into the wind, leaving no traces behind.The rogues had not been able to find her after she escaped from them, and even after I threatened to kill them—after brutally torturing their leader for a month—they still could not provide anything about her whereabouts. In the end, I had to let them go.“This is your fifth bottle this morning. Come on, Aeros, get yourself together,” Jonathan snapped as he grabbed the bottle and yanked it away from me forcefully, just before I could take another swig.“What’s wrong with you? You can’t keep living like this, Aeros. You can’t find her with your head in a bottle. You need to get yourself together and attend to what needs to be done,” he added.I scoffed at his words and burst out laughing in an odd manner.“Haven’t we tried? Thr

AEROS The soft beeping sound of a machine behind me forced me to stir awake as my eyelids fluttered open slowly. My vision was blurry, and my hearing was muffled, as if I were underwater, but I could still catch the voices in the background.“I told him not to drive. I warned him, but he didn’t listen. What if I hadn’t followed behind him directly? What would have happened?” a familiar voice said.“Thank the goddess you were there. He really needs to get over that girl. If he wasn’t so hung up on her, he wouldn’t be drinking in the first place,” another familiar voice added.Silence ensued for the next few seconds until one of them spoke up again.“I’ve been thinking... do you think we should cut off the investigation and find a way to make her look dead to him?” the second voice continued.“I’ve thought of that too, but I can’t come up with anything that will sound believable to him, not after what happened the other time,” came the first voice.“Don’t worry, I have a plan. Anyways,
The Alpha's Pet 40
ELARIAN “What do you mean she didn’t come back last night?” I asked Gabby, Vienna’s mother, in surprise as soon as she broke the news to me that she hadn’t seen Vienna since she went out to pick herbs yesterday.Slowly, I eased myself onto the couch. My stomach was now protruding more with each passing day, and it was gradually becoming so uncomfortable for me. But Gabby and Vienna were doing everything they possibly could to make me comfortable.They were the literal angels the Moon Goddess sent to save me from my misery. Three months ago, I thought all was lost until they stumbled upon me and brought me here, to this pack, the Blood Moon Pack, a place I now considered my home.“Does Alpha Xavier know about this?” I questioned her further, wrapping my hands around my stomach protectively while gently caressing it.“I’m sure she’s fine and will return soon. She’s probably with one of those omega wolves she plays around with. She does that all the time.”“Plus, Alpha Xavier sent a gua
