His eyes were on me, but he wasn't speaking.
     “Gerald?” I touched his hand. “You have something to tell me?”
     All he said was “I understand.”
     But I felt the need to speak out. Guilt was building up in me, filling me up like a cup that was ready to overflow with water. His consistent look at me couldn't let me have a moment of peace.
     “Actually… Andrea and Raguel… They tricked me into spending a private time with Amon.” It was hard for me to maintain my flow of words, and I took in breaths. “I didn't realize he would try to seduce me.”
     My hands were rubbing against each other, the sweat forming on my palms acted as lubricant.
     But Gerald's expression did not change. “That's not a big issue on ground.” He shook his head about three times. “You have something that belongs to Amon.”
     Something that belonged to Amon? What if he knew I was pregnant with Amon's child?

**************************************

Was it all about love or the mate bond?
     My lover, Amon, had left me for a girl he claimed was his fated mate, and I was torn apart, feeling like there was no life without him.
     In just a month, I met Gerald, the Alpha of another pack, and he turned out to be my mate. But then, I was pregnant with Amon’s child.
     I had decided to keep my pregnancy a secret because of the rule of my pack, and Amon was never aware of it. Gerald marked me without a hint of it, but things turned crazy when Amon showed up in secret, claiming he loved me.
     I was conflicted, but there was more to Gerald that I didn't know. Everyone around me was hinting vague things about him that they weren't certain of.
     Well, whatever it was, I was going to accept it as part of my fate.

Leah's Fate

A few weeks passed, and my father, Festus, was hosting a party that involved most members of our pack. Our palace was used for this gathering, and he had made me attend against my will of constantly staying locked up in my room.

About my mum? Sandra had always been by my side.

"Celine." She held my fingers. "Your body feels different… Did something else happened to you that I don't know about?"

Her face had turned pale of recent, always looking at me, touching my neck to confirm nothing was wrong with me, but she'd never seemed satisfied.

I forced a smile which she must have noticed was fake. "I'm good."

I left her side afterwards. I felt like throwing up, and I didn't want her to notice. I hadn't told anyone I was pregnant, Kate was the only person aware of it.

Just then, I caught sight of one of Festus' friends, Gerald, who was an Alpha of a different pack. I noticed his eyes were fixed on me.

It might get worse
