I Became A Lycan Princess After Rejection

OCTAVA

I moaned out loud, writhing under Jake as he thrust deep inside me. My walls clenched around his cock, and I stiffened before letting out a cry of sweet release. A minute later, Jakeson grunted out his release. He wasted no time in slipping out of me.

I moved to hold him, but he slapped my hand off.

I ignored the pain of rejection that sliced through my chest, swallowing it like I usually do. I was used to it. I just didn't understand why I kept on trying like a fool.

“Where are you going?” I gathered the courage to ask, staring at his beautifully sculpted body as he walked towards the bathroom.

“To work, don't wait, I may not come home today.” He said flatly.

I looked away, staring at the wall in front of me, trying my best to blink away the tears that were starting to form in my eyes

I pulled my legs close to my chest and pulled the cover over my body to hide my exposed body. The sex had been wonderful as always, but his behavior afterward made me feel exposed, unworthy.

It was always like this whenever we had sex. He grew distant and uncaring. In fact, he was only nice when he wanted sex, and only when he wanted sex. I had no idea why I thought it would be different this time.

Jakeson and I have been married for five years now, and in that five years, I could count the number of times he had looked at me with love and care in one hand, and even those times, it was when he wanted to make love.

That was the only time we had any semblance of connection with each other.

Every other time, we were strangers to each other. I had done everything to make him see me, to make him love me, but nothing worked, and it was all because I was human.

He didn't think I was worthy to be his mate. He never said it outrightly, but it showed in the way he treated me like I was a piece of…meat.

To Jakeson, I was a burden, an obligation, a replacement for the woman he actually wanted.

I should have left a long time ago. Nothing was holding me here, but I couldn’t. I loved him too much and still held on to the hope that one day, he would eventually see me.

Jakeson walked out a second later, his hair was wet. He had just showered. He looked divine as usual.

“So, you won’t be coming home tonight?”

“Didn’t I just say so?” he snapped.

I flinched.

“I was just asking so I can prepare dinner.”

He didn't respond; instead, he finished buttoning up his dress shirt, took his gadget, car keys, and walked out, leaving me staring after him like a fool.

You'd think by now I would be used to this treatment, but the pain was the same as always.

My hands curled into fists before me, and as soon as the door slammed shut, the tears I had been holding back broke free.

My heart rose and fell in rapid succession.

I deserved better than this, I really did.

A sharp pain suddenly sliced through my stomach, and I let out a scream.

“Ugh,” I groaned. I had been experiencing this for a week now, sharp pain in my stomach and chest. It was always brief and lasted two seconds.

But this one was hurting longer than usual.

The pain suddenly disappeared, and I sighed in relief. I stood up, about to go to the bathroom to shower and clean up, when it hit again, this time stronger.

I collapsed to the floor with an excruciating scream.

“Help,” I yelled, and a second later, my handmaid came barging into the room.

“Luna, are you alright?” she rushed to my side.

“No, please… take me to the hospital now.” I choked out, the pain worsening by the second.

I felt like I was going to die as the pain crawled up all the way to my chest.

Carla looked around frantically while I clutched my chest.

She began to yell for help when

It suddenly stopped again, and I stood up and followed Carla to the car, where the driver drove us to the packhouse.

……

“Congratulations, Luna. You are pregnant.”

Doctor Mayfair said with a smile as she walked in.

My eyes widened. I had arrived at the hospital an hour ago, and the doctors had run some tests, telling me I was going to be fine, and didn't need to worry.

“Really?” I exclaimed and she grinned wider

“Really!”

My heart swelled. I couldn’t believe it. I had given up on ever having a child with my husband years ago after so many tries with not so much as a miscarriage. At some point, I even thought my human genes could not mix with his werewolf genes, even after the doctors assured me that it wasn’t.

“But why was my stomach hurting so bad, doctor?” I questioned, sitting up from the bed.

“Well, your stomachache was due to the lack of certain vitamins your baby was taking from your body. He is a strong baby, an alpha actually. A strong breed, just like his mama.” She smiled. “That’s what caused all the commotion, but don't worry. I have prescribed a few medications for you to help with the pain.”

“I see. Thank you.” I smiled, wondering why she had said my baby was just as strong a breed as I was. I wasn’t even a werewolf. I was human, at least to my knowledge.

Maybe she was just trying to flatter me.

“You are welcome.”

“How far along, doctor?’ I questioned, already imagining the joy from Jakeson when I gave him the news.

“Seven weeks.”

……

I left the hospital, feeling so much better. Doctor Mayfair had given me a list of medicines to take, and a type of food to eat, to avoid for the next nine months. Carla had done most of the listening because I was way too excited to sit still.

“Congratulations again, Luna>” Carla said.

“Thank you, Carla. I feel great. Get the chefs to make the Alpha his favorite meal while I go find him. We will be celebrating tonight.”

“Of course, Luna,” Carla said and left.

While I made my way to the hotel Jakeson was having his meeting today, I found Leo in front of the hotel talking to a couple of well-dressed wolves.

I walked up to him, and his eyes widened in surprise.

“Luna, what…What are you doing here?”

“Where is the Alpha?”

“He's in a meeting right now.”

“Good, you're on your way there, aren't you?”

“Um, yeah.”

“I'll come with you then,” I said.

He looked a little skeptical, but I didn't wait for him to say no.

I walked into the hotel, and he followed me.
