"I'm a Volana wolf, a target of Evil. My blood can grant eternal life.
My father locked me up since I was 10. He killed my wolf and tried to rape me.

No wolf. No mate. No hope.
Until Bastien offered me to be his contract mate.

When 3 years contract comes to the end, I am pregnant.
Yet, he's going to reject me. 
---
""I'm going to be a mother!"" I breathe in blissful disbelief. 

I can't wait to tell Bastien. 

I've been grinning like a fool ever since leaving the doctor's office and practiced sharing the news while I drove.

Butterflies flutter rapidly in my belly as I climb the stairs, my body thrumming with anticipation. 

But the ecstatic smile slips from my face the moment I walk in. 

Bastien is already there, waiting for me. He's sitting alone in the darkened living room, a tumbler of amber liquid clasped in his large fist and a severe frown dominating his handsome face. 

Finally he speaks, ""Tomorrow I'm going to have my father put things in motion for our rejection ceremony.""
---
I am Bastien's burden. He marries me for duty. But when I leave to give him freedom, he goes crazy looking for me. When we meet again, he says he loves me."

Pregnant And Rejected By My Alpha Mate

When Lila and I reached New Town, the streets rearranged themselves before my very eyes. All of a sudden the world around me transformed: the cars and modern advertisements faded, reverting to styles and campaigns from the forgotten past. New restaurants and shops disappeared, replaced by businesses which have long since closed.


Everything appears as it did fifteen years ago - the last time I truly spent time here - the last time I walked these streets before my mother died and Garrick took me prisoner. After I escaped I rarely came here. I avoided this neighborhood like the plague. But here I am again, ten years old and about to lose everything I ever knew and loved.


 “This is it, Mommy?” Lila’s tiny hand squeezes mine, her beloved voice jolting me out of my reverie.


“This is it.” I confirm. “I grew up in that very house.” And lost everything there too. Luna adds.


“Can we go inside?” Lila asks eagerly.
