"I can't deal with your games anymore. Tell me the truth about Caroline," I asked.
To my surprise, Aiden's reaction was nothing like I expected. His face contorted with a cold, bitter laugh. 
"Oh, please. You think you're worth my time? You're just a nobody, and I'm not going to make our thing public. You're just a convenient little toy for me to use,"
I took a deep breath, mustering all the strength I had left, and decided to play it cool. I needed to catch him off guard and show him that I was not going to be just another pawn in his twisted games.
"Is that how you see me, Aiden? Just a damn toy? Well, I've had enough of your games,"
Aiden looked taken aback, clearly not expecting this reaction from me. I could see the anger and frustration in his eyes, but I refused to back down.
"I reject you as my mate, Aiden," I continued, my voice firm and resolute.

***
In a world of werewolves and secrets, Leah conceals her pregnancy from everyone, even her mate, the popular and handsome Aiden. 
When she discovers her true mate is Ian, the heir to the powerful Silver Pack, their lives entwine in unexpected ways. 
Aiden's betrayal, Clara's support, and a three-year absence shape Leah's strength as a single mother.
As Ian reenters her life, can he prove himself worthy of her love, and will their bond survive the challenges of pack politics and lingering secrets?

The Alpha's Pregnant Mate

　　There, standing in the doorway, was Ian, wearing nothing but a towel. He was soaking wet, his hair slicked back, and there was a look of concern on his face.


　　"Did you see everything?" I asked, panic rising in my voice.


　　Ian nodded, his eyes not leaving mine. "I won't tell anyone," he said, his tone reassuring. "


　　Before I could respond, he spoke again. "I have a proposition for you," he said, his voice serious. "I'll keep quiet about what I saw if you'll do one thing for me."


　　My heart raced, and I was filled with a mix of curiosity and trepidation. "What's the catch?" I asked, trying to keep my voice steady.


　　"I want you to be my date to the Welcome Party," he said, a slight smile playing at the corners of his mouth.


　　I was taken aback by Ian's proposal. "Your date?" I asked, slightly surprised.


　　He nodded confidently. "Yeah, my date."
