Number 1
“You are two weeks gone, Luna” the doctor said in an oh - so professional tone after his awkward pause.
Lorelei’s face melted the moment she heard what the doctor said. His awkward silence at first gave her a fright, that she almost thought she had been tested with a terminal illness that had shorten her lifespan or had been infected with wolfsbane grass but she was pregnant??
“Doctor you mean, I have a baby inside of me. Like I am carrying an extra life in my tummy?” Lena questioned with teary eyes, those weren’t tears caused by sorrow or sadness but tears of joy from a she-wolf termed as barren.
“Yes Luna Lorelei, you are two weeks pregnant.” The pack doctor replied and Lorelei couldn’t explain how joyful she was. Her prayers of giving birth to an heir for Damon was finally coming true. She rubbed on her tummy affectionately, visible happiness etched on her face.
“Thank you so much, Doctor Quan. This is one of the best news I’ve heard for a long while. But please do me a favor and not tell anyone, not even the Alpha, I want to deliver him this wonderful news myself.”
The doctor smiled and said, “You have my words, I won’t speak of this to the Alpha Damon. I’m sure he would be more elated to hear it from you.”
With no more left to say, she sashayed out of the office of the packs doctor with her test result in her hands. The Chauffeur bowed at her before opening the car door for her. She comfortably relaxed on the car seat, exhaling a sigh of relief. She had never imagined that a pregnancy test results in her hands would feel this refreshing.
..
Lorelei hurriedly got down from the car when they reached the pack house, she didn’t even wait for the Chauffeur to do his job of opening the door. She was more than elated to see her mate and give him this great news which they had been expecting for three years now.
With a hastened steps not minding that she was the Luna and was expected to walk with grace, she hurried to her Damon’s room.
Her footsteps halted on hearing some foreign sounds coming from the direction of Damon’s but she shrugged it off with a thought that her ears might be decieving.
The persistent foreign noise which sounded like a moan from a lady, increased with every step she took. This wasn’t her ears playing tricks on her but something was really going on behind those doors. She barged into the room and the sight she saw made her world come crushing down.
Her sister, Irene lost in the embrace of her mate moaning as they f*cked vigorously. They were so lost in the ream of pleasure that they didn’t even notice her presence.
‘No, this can’t be happening.’ she covered her mouth, how could they do that to her. Tears gushed from her eyes as she ran out of the room as silently as she could, she wouldn’t give them the pleasure of seeing her in such distorted state.
She sat on the floor of her room dejectedly, a blanket wrapped around her. She knew Irene was always slightly jealous of her but nevertheless she still cared and loved her but what did she repay her with?, She slept with her husband in matrimonial home.
One moment she was excited to give her pregnancy news to Damon and the next she was sober because of her cheating husband. The day really did switch up for her so fast.
She touched her stomach, she would keep her pregnancy as a secret away from Damon, at least this is the biggest revenge she could do for now to pay back. No one would listen to her if she said she saw her mate cheating because Warewolf were naturally promiscuous creatures and a few flings here and there was never a crime especially for an Alpha.
..
The next morning, Lorelei woke up with a slight migraine. She had cussed and cried herself to sleep the previous night so the migraine was expected. She sluggishly walked to the kitchen to prepare Damon’s food, she didn’t want him to suspect anything.
She served his food for him acting indifferent. His face did disgust her so bad but she couldn’t show it.
Damon spat the food Lorelei had prepared out of his mouth. "What the hell is this poison of a food you cooked?? He screamed.
“I wish they was actual poison in it, maybe that would have been better.” Lorelei retorted back with a glare, she knew the food would come out badly because of the way she had cooked it absentmindedly but she cared less.
Damon’s anger skyrocketed and he roughly grabbed her hands.
“Let go of my hands, Damon. Let go of my hand you bastard.” Lorelei warned.
“Did you just call me a bastard? Lorelei.”
“Yes I did and luckily I wouldn’t be birthing a child for someone like you.” She lied blatantly. She was only saying this to piss him off but his laughter surprised her.
“You think I’m just realizing that, I knew you couldn’t get pregnant a long time ago.. More reasons I have stop loving a barren she-wolf like you.”
“You don’t love me anymore, then go ahead and reject me, what’s the use of keeping me here?” Lorelei stated, he didn’t love her anymore so why should she care.
“Reject you huh? maybe that’s what I would do.” He said letting go of her hand. He became unfocused for a while seemed like he was mind linking someone.
“Come with me!” Damon said to Lorelei dragging her along to god knows way, she didn’t object but followed him.
They stopped when they got to the announcement hall of the star moon pack, and almost all the pack members have been gathered around. Why were there assembled and why did Damon bring her here? Were all thoughts running through Lorelei’s mind.
They were a few murmurs from the crowd but they all stopped on seeing the Alpha of the pack.
“You must all be wondering why I called you here in a short notice…” Damon started, his voice echoing across the hall.
“Today is the day I rejects Lorelei, in the presence of you all and the moon goddess as my witness. She seize to be my mate and the Luna of this pack.” Damien’s said sternly.
Lorelei sister, Irene who was standing in the crowd was over joyous on hearing Damien’s rejection. Her sister was no longer the Luna and they was nothing more better than this.
Lorelei was barely fazed by his actions and it bothered Damien, he wanted a reaction from her. He wanted to see her beg on her knees in tears for him to take her back but she just stood with no words from her mouth. “And I, The Alpha of star moon pack, announce Irene as my new mate and she should be regarded as the Luna of the pack. Come out here Irene, you need to make your presence known.”
Irene acted like she was in shock even though she knew this will most definitely happen, since Damien has rejected her sister. She will be the next in line after all. She went to the front of the crowd and Damien grabbed her locking their lips in a kiss not minding that Lorelei was there. Damien only did it to make Lorelei furious and it worked because Lorelei’s face creased with angry lines on her forehead.
Lorelei stormed out of the hall, she was more than angry. At the beginning she tried to act indifferent but the moment Damien called onto her sister and announced her as his mate, all hell break loose and she couldn’t take it anymore.
Irene noticed her sister leaving so she followed her, what joy was it if she didn’t get to mock her sister “Wait for me, sister Lorelei.” She said and Lorelei halted her footsteps. Irene came to stand in front of her. “Oh my God, Lorelei. Are you about crying?” Irene said sarcastically with a grin.
“How does it feel, knowing your mate choose me over you? It must stink so bad right?”
Lorelei was fuming in anger, she felt the urge to shove her claws deep in Irene’s face and she would do it if she kept on saying such words to her. She was about retorting when a hand landed on her face. Damien had slapped her!!
