★ELAINE★

Almost at once, the woman grasped my hand and scanned through the lines on my palm. Her eyes moved from my palm to my eyes for a couple of minutes and I waited patiently for whatever she was about to say.

Just then, she cleared her throat and stated; “Please come into the cabin first. The weather is too cold for a pregnant woman.”

I lurched backward, colors draining out of my face in shock. Pregnant? Me, pregnant?

My mind was running amok as I asked the woman one more time.

“M-me, p-pregnant?"

“Of course, My Lady. Don't you want to be?" She asked with a warm smile. “Wait a minute, you didn't know that you are with child all along?"

I slowly shook my head. “No, I didn't.”

The woman smacked her tongue against the roof of her mouth. “Tsk tsk tsk...and from my observation, this pregnancy has lasted a while. It's not something of days. But I can't tell how long. ” She revealed to me.

My lips quivered as I ponder on that particular piece of information over and over again. I

    ★ELAINE★I scanned around frantically in search of Tania. “Enid please where is she? I wasn't done speaking to her.” Enid gazed at me with pity then raised her wand to conjure up some spells. “The line between the living and dead isn't waning. You might want to share everything with her quickly to avoid this happening again.” Nodding in response, I clasped my fingers together, waiting to see Tania one more time. In a short span of thirty seconds, she was crouching down right in front of me, in the exact position she was before her disappearance. “Oh goodness, I thought I lost you there, Tania.” I fretted. “You did, Elaine. I don't have much time, but I'll willing to discuss everything until you are satisfied before leaving.” she offered and I smiled. “Thank you so much, Tania.” “However.....” Her voice trailed off. “I cannot tell you the secret Beta Adrian has been hiding because fate has the way it will turn out, so just be patient,” Tania advised. “That is not a problem,” I

    ★ELAINE★When Amy and I arrived at my dorm, we met Alpha Damon and his sister, Gina seated there, waiting for me. Snuggling her baby tight to her bossom, Gina walked up to me with worry splayed across her brows. “We have been waiting for you here, Elaine. Where have you been?" She asked. I swallowed hard, contemplating a plausible response to give. I couldn't dare to say that I visited a sorceress, so I went with another option. “I stepped out for a walk.” My eyes drifted to Alpha Damon, whose eyes have been on me from the moment I stepped into the room and I could not pinpoint what was going on in his head. “A walk?" Gina pressed further. “But what you need is rest. Watching the way you collapsed earlier, you do not need to keep stressing yourself out.” “It's fine,” I added dismissively. Gina managed a small nod and then stated. “Anyways, I made pudding for you. I also went to get the physician but since he didn't meet you here, he prescribe some medication and I left it with t

    ★ELAINE★Not wanting to reveal the truth to Alpha Damon anymore, I decided to change the narrative into something else. “It is about Tara.” I began. “Tara?" He queried, looking quizzically at me. “Who is that?" “The lady locked away in the dungeon for killing Joanna. Is there something I can do to save her?” I asked, hoping he would give me a positive response. In truth, I have always felt pity for Tara. She has been in that dungeon for close to three days now and I wonder how miserable she must be feeling at the moment. Alpha Damon's brows angled with a deep frown. “Why do you want to save her? Isn't she the lady that almost put you in trouble? Have you forgotten your ordeal so soon?" I heaved a deep sigh. “All those things happened because they were meant to be. Tara shouldn't be held accountable for this, so please let's save her.” “Do you know what you are asking me, Elaine?" He snorted in disbelief. “You are asking me to save a murderer from being persecuted. She killed th

    ★ELAINE★“Ouch!" Tossing and turning on the bed, I couldn't bring myself to sleep throughout the night. Last night was a bit too much for me. Getting to find out that I'm pregnant with Alpha Damon's baby, and also the real perpetrator behind those catastrophes in the Lycanfrost pack. A lot had been going on and the evil had been lurking around all along, but I had been a fool not to notice. It hit me like a wave and I was still struggling to process everything. Why me? What was my offense to Gamma Genevieve that she had to go to the extent of attempting to take my life? Several questions plagued my mind. Yet, they remained unanswered. Birds chirped their morning songs, and sunlight filled my room through the slightly parted curtains, signaling it was morning already. A soft knock pounded against my door frame, and Amy sauntered into my room almost at once. She pulled the curtains farther apart and when she turned to wake me up, she noticed my eyes were wide open. “Good morni

    ★ELAINE★Unfortunately for me, the more step I took toward the mountain, the farther it became.My frustration was starting to set in and my patience was hanging by a tiny line of thread. A part of me wondered if one of the female competitors had gotten to the mountain already and a painful jab struck across my gut. I could not imagine the despair I'd feel if someone had gotten the title while I suffered, trying. Just then thunder clapped, a heavy downpour rained on me and I cussed out in frustration. “Oh, crap! It can't get any worse. Can it?" Although my body was soaked from head to toe, I kept on moving. Rain has nothing on me when I have something to prove. I reassured myself over and over again. Taking the left direction that seemed more favorable, I noticed something burning and rustling among the bushes and when I peered over, a teenage girl was sitting beside a bonfire with a stick in her hand. Holy crap! How could a fire be burning brightly underneath heavy rainfall?

    ★ELAINE★“You did it, Elaine.” Alpha Damon's sister, Gina whispered, brushing through my hair as I rest on the bed. I could not recall when the guards brought me back to the dorm. It seemed I blacked out straight after taking the prize and I still couldn't believe I pulled through the hurdles in every stage. The stages were tough. From the weeping girl, down to the tiger and facing my doppelganger. I thought I would be tamed in an asylum by now. Feigning a small smile at Gina, I inquired weakly. “So is it over now?" Gina nodded her head. “Yes, it is, Elaine. You are the new Alpha Female and I'm proud of you. The whole wereworld is proud of you.” Drifting back to what transpired at the mountain, I imagined my mother's face all over again.Once, I saw her picture when I went ransacking my father's room back at the blood moon pack. With her hair loosely scattered over her shoulders, she looked so beautiful and charming. We looked so alike. Yet there were some discrepancies. In place

    ★ELAINE★“The Alpha Female should go into the carriage first please.” Lady Gina ushered me into the carriage and I let out a chortle. “When will you stop doing that?"“When I die. And since it's not anytime soon, I won't stop praising you as the Alpha Female.” She replied, handing her baby over to me so she could enter the carriage too. I took Lydia from her and said; “You are too much, Gina and now you will influence little Lydia with your lifestyle.” Gina plopped down beside me. “You can start moving!” she yelled at the coachman and soon our carriage wheels rolled into the dusty road. Smiling in satisfaction, Gina returned her attention to me. “So what were you saying?" I tried to rethink our conversation before the little distraction. “Oh!” I snapped my fingers. “I was talking about how you would influence little Lydia with your lifestyle.” Gina twitched her lips. “Which is why I want her to be closer to you more than ever. Remember what I told you at the lake? I said you ha

    ★ELAINE★Darkness was fast approaching. Gina and I woke from our slumber at the same time due to Lydia's incessant wails. “Maybe her diaper needs changing,” I suggested and Gina picked up her baby to observe her diaper. “No, she is just throwing a temper tantrum,” she said, removing her clothes to change into another. When she was done, I stepped forward and offered to carry the baby instead. “Let me take her." “You need rest, Elaine. I won't want Lydia to take that from you.” Gina declined in a polite tone but I pressed further. “No, I'm offering." After pestering Gina for a little while longer, she eventually succumbed and thrust Lydia into my waiting arms. So I scrambled out of the bed, then I began pacing back and forth to stop her from crying. “You are so good with babies,” Gina muttered after watching the way Lydia's incessant wails died down gradually. “How many babies have you cuddled like this?" She inquired further. None, but I'm about to have mine, I thought witho

    ★ALPHA DAMON'S POV★Inhaling deeply, I took a step forward to face Donovan. Fine, I believed he has every reason to be angry with me. Just because he found love with my maid, I humiliated him in front of the pack and almost ended his life. Not only that, I ripped him off the Delta title and banished him from my pack. So yes, he had every right to stay mad at me. “Donovan..." I started. “I didn't mean to come into your house unannounced. And I must add that what you guys have here is beautiful.” “Thank you for making us realize that we are worth so much more." He sneered back. I slowly nod, feeling quite guilty for making hasty decisions without giving it a second thought. But it has already happened. The past can't be changed, yet I could make amends. Taking in another breath, I looked squarely at Donovan before speaking again: “The Delta position has been vacant for so long. What do you say about taking over again? I think it really suits you better.”A faint smile became visibl

    ★ELAINE'S POV★†Five Months Later†“Touch your mouth." I requested with a smile as I addressed Ashley's one-year-old daughter, Marianne. Alas, she brought her tiny fingers to her lips. “Very good." I commended. “Now, show me your nose." “My nuhsee." She cooed before touching her well-defined small nose. I smiled again in delight. “That's my girl.” Ashley and her husband, Donovan went to the farm, leaving Marianne in my care seeing as I couldn't do any arduous tasks in my state. In truth, they've been supportive and accommodating since the moment I arrived. Ashley was very excited when she found out I was pregnant with a pup, and without judgment, she continuously lectured me about the journey of motherhood. Also, she helped me forget my plight with the Lycanfrost pack in a hurry. Days turned into months, and I found myself getting over the miseries. I was able to wield the courage to acknowledge that my pup doesn't have a father. So I'd have to be his father and mother, train h

    ★ELAINE★“Why don't you let me go with you, my Lady?" Amy queried apprehensively. I shook my head in refusal for the umpteenth time. “Thank you for helping me pack my luggage, but I'll be fine on my own. I can't subject you to living the kind of life I choose to live.” Having said that, I assisted myself onto the horse's back and grasped its rein tightly between my fist. “This is goodbye, Amy,” I said to her trying not to sound heartbroken. “Thank you for everything you have done for me. Thank you for looking after me up until this moment. You can have your life back now.” “But I have never—” Not letting her complete her statement, I kicked the horse, spurring it to start moving and it instantly started galloping before increasing its pace. Although, riding horses wasn't good for my pregnant state. I had no other choice. I knew I had to be stronger now, not just for myself alone. My unborn pup is inclusive.Once, I turned my head to look at the Lycanfrost pack as I drew further

    ★ELAINE★“Ow!” My eyelids flutter open with an inaudible groan. It felt like my whole body was rammed against the wall and my head ached so badly. At first, my vision was blurry but little by little, I was starting to adjust to my surroundings, acknowledging that I was now in my chamber. Pulling myself to a sitting position, I saw Gina seated at the foot of the bed, breastfeeding her baby. “Hey, Gina,” I called softly but she didn't respond. “Gina,” I called again, thinking she didn't hear me the first time. Yet, she didn't respond. Making my voice a little louder, I called for the third time. “Gina!" “What?" She yelled back at me and my mouth dropped open in shock. “Why are you disturbing me, Elaine? Of course, I heard you the first, second, and third time. I am not DEAF!” She stressed out the word for me and I couldn't believe my ears. Gina has never reacted in such a manner towards me before. What could be the.....It was then memories of everything that happened before

    ★ALPHA DAMON★“I- I d-on't understand.” Elaine stuttered, taking two steps back, away from me. The fit of rage burning through my veins was indescribable. I felt like snagging her neck like a twig for doing something this ludicrous to me. My Beta and my Luna? For fuck sake, I have never felt so disrespected until I discovered this has been going on right under my nose for quite a while. “How long have you been sleeping with Adrian?!” I bellowed angrily, making her flinch on her spot. Yet I didn't feel any remorseful about it. “I-it's not what you think, Alph—”“—Then tell me what I'm supposed to think!” I fired back. Not letting her finish her statement. Damn! The angst of being betrayed by the people you once cherished was quite overwhelming. My eyes wandered to Adrian, whose head hung low and hasn't said a word since. Then I returned my glare to Elaine. “You better start talking!” Just then she broke down in tears and went to her knees immediately. “It's not what you think,

    ★ELAINE★“You are an animal! A fucking psychopath!” I cussed angrily at him. “What did I do, Elai—” Beta Adrian tried to touch me, but I yanked my arm out of his reach. “Don't fucking touch me with those filthy, bloody hands!” I shrieked. “You can't just keep cussing me out, Elaine. If there is something I did wrong, tell me. I won't hesitate to apologize to you, you know that right?" His voice sounded apologetic and warm. If I wasn't aware of his heinous past, I would have thought he was the same saint I fell in love with. The Beta that swept me right off my feet from the very moment I came to this pack. The kindhearted, warm, and loving Beta Adrian. But he isn't anymore. He is nothing but a psychotic asshole! Staring at him blankly for a couple of seconds, I was still trying to wrap my head around how gruesome he could be. Such malicious acts on poor innocent children could never justify his quest for bloodthirsty revenge. The sound of their wails as the blade sliced throug

    ★ELAINE★I remained in my spot with tears pouring down my cheeks. All these while, I have been living a lie with Beta Adrian. He made me fall in love with him. He made me find solace in him. He made me wish I was never with Alpha Damon in the first place. Yet, he was this cruel? Although Alpha Damon had his dark past, he wasn't as grievous as Beta Adrian. My head was spinning out of its axis and I was struggling to breathe. “What is going on here?" Lady Gina walked into the room, looking from me to Tara and then back to me. Not wanting to say anything, I wiped the tears away from the corner of my eyes. “It is nothing. Tara and I were just going down memory lane. We were reflecting on our past and how far we've come." "Oh!" Lady Gina flashed a bright grin at us. “Everyone has a story. Tara, would you like to hear mine after the party?" Tara shakily responded with a nod. “Yes, I will." “Okay, good...but first, we have to prepare the celebrant for the party.” She whisked me back

    ★ELAINE★A wave of shock swept through my entire body. Feeling the colors drain from my cheeks, I readjusted myself on the chair and asked; “What do you mean?" Tara took my hand in hers, then pulled me towards the bed and I went, unresisting. My heart was thumping rapidly against my chest. At this rate, it might as well jump right out. Was this the secret Tania mentioned to me that night? I thought to myself and as much as I hoped whatever Tara was going to say would not hurt me. My gut feeling told me it would. “I don't get it, please explain.” “Do you remember when I thanked you for rescuing me, I made a statement that if I had returned to the pack, they would kill me without a second thought because I don't belong there." Nodding my head hastily, I urged her to continue. “Good. I am originally from the silver moon pack." My mind began to race faster than usual. I was struggling to couple up my scattered thoughts together. If I could remember, Beta Adrian had once told me t

    ★ELAINE★★FOURS DAYS LATER★Seconds rolled into minutes. Minutes into an hour, and hour into days. Soon four days had passed by in a jiffy. I lay fully awake on the bed, but my eyes remained closed. I could not believe that I was finally turning nineteen today. Indeed, that soothsayer was right. A lot has happened since we last spoke and everything she predicted, unfolded right after the other. Today is the day I promised Gina to disclose the news about my pregnancy to Alpha Damon. Yet, I didn't know if I was ready. Would I ever be? I asked myself. Gina hummed softly, whilst folding some of her baby's laundry. Very soon, my baby bump would become visible and there would be no hiding it from the rest of the world. A part of me felt I ought to be grateful that Alpha Damon happened to be the father of my unborn baby. If he wasn't, I didn't want to imagine the catastrophe that would unfold later on. Something soft touched down on my forehead, his scent filling my nostrils at once.
