Nikolai’s POVRunning my fingers through my hair, I felt my heart race and my breathing paced as I tried to keep my feet on the ground. The pain soon stopped and my eyes widened when I realized what just happened. ‘It’s our mate,’ my wolf said as I stared at the door like I was expecting to see something, ‘she’s no longer our mate, she accepted the rejection.’ He finished.No. No. There’s no way the rejection was going to work without me being with her when she accepted it.Questions ran through my mind as I walked around the room, my eyes wouldn’t leave the door and it was as though I was expecting her to show up.Andre had just given me not only a piece of his mind but also of his fist and now the bond between Lilliana and I has been broken.Why? Why would she accept the rejection? How the fuck did she even remember I’d rejected her?I’d thought that I'd done more than enough to get her to want to be with me but she had to refer to a rejection and accept it?My head felt light, my
Lilliana’s POVGroaning, my eyes fluttered open and I shut them back as I tried to regain my consciousness fully. My head pounded but it felt light at the same time.Closing my eyes, I tried to remember everything that happened last night but all I knew was the fact that I eventually got caught by the guards.This is why you should always plan properly before trying to run away.I opened my eyes again and everywhere felt foreign to me, it was hard to reconcile my thoughts and the environment felt extremely strange.The walls were blue and white, completely different from Nikolai’s or my room and I was also wearing a change of clothes. “Hello?” I tried to call but my voice was lower than I intended it to be and it wasn’t until I looked properly that it dawned on me that I was in a hospital room.“What’s going on? Why am I here?” I asked the nurse that worked in and she was only smiling at me like her ability to speak has been taken away from her.“You shouldn’t be stressing yourself o
Nikolai’s POVShe looked shocked to see me but that wasn’t what was really clear in her eyes, it was the sheer look of hatred that caused a tingle in my chest.She looked like she didn’t want to see me and the sight of her being with Andre…. Again, angered me more than anything else.“What are you doing here?” Andre’s voice jolted me out of my thoughts and it wasn’t until then that I realized that he was already in front of me.“That shouldn't be any of your business, should it?” I retorted, the feeling we both had for each other was sort of mutual but I wasn’t in the mood to fight my best friend.I was too tired to want to do any of that because my heart has been racing for the past twelve hours, trying really hard to get my mind together.I couldn’t deny that I was worried and right from the moment that I heard about everything that was going on, I was already in the hospital and stayed up all night, waiting for her to wake up.Different thoughts and questions ran through my mind la
Lilliana’s POV“Wait, WHAT?!” I yelled again, completely dumbfounded as Nikolai left Andre to focus on me.My eyes were wide and I could feel my throat getting dry, making me realize that I was going to need a lot more than some water to regain the moisture.Really, what? There was no way I heard that right. There was no way that Nikolai just said I was pregnant.How could I be? How can I be pregnant and how could he know before me?The words kept ringing in my head over and over again but my brain still couldn’t comprehend it and I still couldn’t wrap my head around what I’d just heard.If I’m pregnant then Nikolai is the father and the last thing I want in this damned world where everything about me just seems to come out as ‘unlucky’ is carrying the child of a man I now hate with every fiber of my being.“W—- what did— what did you just say?” I asked like I didn’t hear the first time, my lips quivered and I was shivering visibly as I tried to think back again.It all made sense but
Lilliana’s POV“I’m glad that you’re okay now but when you feel uneasy, don’t forget to let me know.” The doctor said and I nodded as I smiled.It’s been four days since Andre and Nikolai’s last visit since I refused to see any of them. I couldn’t be happier that I was getting discharged.I knew I had no place else to go but I wasn’t going to go back to the same house where I was disrespected and treated like I was nothing even though Nikolai wouldn’t stop making it clear that I was going to come back to the house.“Thank you so much.” I responded as I took a deep breath. I felt stronger and I could walk on my own without needing any help.“Don’t you think I should call someone for you? Do you have anyone else except those two fools?” He asked and I laughed as I shook my head.“I’m fine, I’m not going back to the Alpha’s house anyway so I’ll just walk until I get somewhere.” I responded.Doctor Goldberg tried to urge me to call Andre to come pick me up since he seemed like the most re
Lilliana’s POV“What?” I asked, unsure how to react or what to even say to what the maid had just said, “I’m having dinner with Nikolai?” I asked and she nodded affirmatively.“That’s the Alpha orders ma’am.” She responded a little too firmly, getting a scoff out of me as I walked back to my bed.My mind wandered around and I just can’t help but wonder what Nikolai wants with me. First he’d forced me to stay in the house against my own will and now I’m going to be having dinner with him?That’s the last thing I want to do and it’s really the last thing I’m going to do because I’d rather die than sit on the same table with him.I would rather scratch my own eyes out than be on the same table with a man that didn’t care about anything while he was shoving my heart into a pit-hole.“Well you can go back downstairs and tell your alpha that I’m not eating with him,” I said after a while of silence. My stomach growled and I knew that I needed to eat something soon.It’s been a while since I
Lilliana’s POV“Wait… I just wanted to.” I called after the maid but she didn’t stop as she only walked faster than she was already doing.It’s been a week already and I just can’t help but notice how much I’m being treated like royalty. No one lets me do chores anymore so all I do is sleep, eat, take a walk and basically just sit around.The thought of it made my chest clench because this isn’t how I wanted to be in the house. I didn’t want anything that was going to remind me of Nikolai and I but this room is covered in everything that reminded me of him.Sighing, I laid on my bed and closed my eyes, my chest hurt but it’s a pain I’ve gotten used to already.“Your fruits are ready.” The sound of the maid I’d called earlier on jolted me out of my thoughts and I opened my eyes to see her in my room.“It’s on the table, downstairs.” She pointed out when she noticed I was looking at her empty hands with a raised eyebrow.Nodding, I didn’t say anything as I managed to get out of bed and
Nikolai’s POV“What the hell is she even doing here?” Jenna yelled and I rolled my eyes. I have never wanted to hit anyone as much as I wanted to hit her, especially a woman.“She’s driving me nuts! She’s everywhere and just when I thought I’ve gotten rid—“ she paused when my gaze met hers.Jenna coughed as she tried to correct herself and to also go on ranting about how she hated Lilliana’s presence.“Her presence here is not good for me, it’s not even good for my baby!” She added, rubbing her belly as though that was supposed to have some kind of effect on me.This has been my life since Jenna came back to the house and I announced that I was going to get married to her.I still haven’t stopped hating myself for doing that, I still hate myself for breaking Lily’s heart because I never saw myself with anyone else but her until the tragedy of me picking Jenna’s call struck.“You still love her, don’t you?” Jenna continued, not backing down even though I hardly listened to her or pay h
