"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.

The Alpha's Pregnant Mate

　　"I know that you're trying to do what you think is best for the pack," I said, trying to keep my voice even.


　　"But don't you see that you're hurting me in the process? I'm your son, and I'm asking you to let me choose my own mate. Is that too much to ask?"


　　My father let out a heavy sigh. "I know this is difficult for you, and I'm sorry that you're going through this," he said.


　　"But I have to think about the pack as a whole, not just you.


　　"If you don't marry Louisa, it could cause all sorts of problems for the pack," my father continued.


　　"There could be a power struggle, or the other packs could see us as weak. I can't let that happen. I'm sorry, but I have to think about what's best for everyone."


　　I felt like I was up against a brick wall. No matter what I said, my father wasn't going to change his mind. "I see," I said, my voice trembling with emotion.


　　"So my happiness doesn't matter to you huh? I don't love Louisa and I don't want to marry her.
