Catherine's POVMy hands were still on his collar as I waited for him to say something. If he isn't ready to let me go, I'd have to threaten my way out of it. He can't just keep me locked up here and expect me to act like I like it, not after all he has done to me.“Are you letting me go or not?” I snapped, but he remained quiet.Lucas stood up and walked up to us. “Cathy, you have to let go of him. It's a taboo to hold an Alpha like that,” He said and I continued to glare daggers at Alpha Darin. “Okay? Calm down.” He said and I placed my hands on my head.“I can't calm down, Lucas. I can't. Oh my gosh, I am such a fool, I am so stupid. I'm an idiot!” I snapped at myself and Lucas sighed.“Cathy…”“How could I be so foolish? How could I be so stupid and naive that I couldn't notice anything even when the signs were there? Everything played out right in front of me. The warning signals were there. Why was I so blind to see them?” I groaned as I tried my best to stop my tears from falli
Catherine's POVWhen I realized that the person I fell for was Alpha Darin and not Alpha Darwin, I started screaming and allowed the tears to fall freely down my cheeks. I couldn't help the pain that shot through my system. It was so excruciating that I didn't know what to do with it. All I wanted was to scream it all out. It had been Alpha Darin all these while.Lucas rushed to me and held me. “Please, calm down.” He said but I shook my head.This wasn't the time to calm down.“I can't calm down, Lucas. I can't!” I yelled. “Everything has been a lie. Everything that was going on was a lie, the love was a lie! The talks, the feelings, everything!” I wailed.While I was wailing, Alpha Darin walked up to me. “Everything was not a lie. It doesn't matter if it's me or my brother, Catherine. Nothing has changed. I haven't changed.” He said and that seemed to fuel my anger.“You!” I snapped. “Get out and leave me the hell alone!” I yelled but he still stood there. The more I saw his face, t
Alpha Darwin's POVAfter leaving the room with Darin, I left for my room and sat at the bar taking a glass of wine. I sighed as I thought about everything that has been happening. The door flew open and Elliot stormed in.I sighed and I felt guilty to see the hurt in his face.“How could you do this to me? Where did I go wrong? What didn't I do right? Why did you do this to me, Alpha Darwin?” He asked, his voice breaking as he spoke.“Elliot, listen to me,” I tried to speak but he turned his back to me. I continued anyway. “You have to understand me, Elliot. All that happened was a mistake. It was a one time thing.” I tried to explain but he turned to face me and snapped.“A one time thing led to pregnancy, Alpha Darwin. That girl is pregnant. She is pregnant!” He exclaimed and covered his forehead.I could sense the fear, the pain, hurt and tension in his voice and considering the fact that he was someone I cared about, I didn't want him to go through that. I felt bad for what he was
Alpha Darin's POV“How could he say such a thing?” I asked and looked at Darwin. I mindlinked the beta to come to the living room immediately. We waited for like a minute before he walked in. The expression on his face wasn't a good one but that doesn't mean I will let him off easily.“Why would you threaten Catherine like that?” I asked angrily.“Why won't I tell her off, huh? I didn't threaten her, I only told her to leave because all this is unfair. Why would you people do something like this to Elliot? You ignored his love for you and did this horrible thing to him. Why did you do it?” He snapped angrily.“It's not our fault. You can't question our actions. Catherine is our breeder and we couldn't control ourselves. It's the will of the moon goddess and that's why it happened.” I answered him.“It's not the will of the moon goddess. It's our own mistake. Stop putting the blame on the moon goddess.” Darwin said and walked away.I sighed and ruffled my hair before turning to face th
Alpha Darwin's POV“No! I can't let that happen!” Darin yelled the minute the healer mentioned that the only solution to Catherine's problem was to flush the pregnancy out.When he said that I was equally shocked. But that was the only way to make her live, right? I looked at Lucas then as Darin. I have been watching the whole process quietly with a lot going on in my mind. Aside from the guilt I felt from all these, there was still the embarrassment and it stopped me from expressing anything at all, and so I just kept quiet and watched the whole process while showing no emotions but this one caught me off guard.“That can't happen. What sort of obnoxious solution is that? I won't let it happen. Catherine is keeping the baby!” Darin snapped.“That's the only way to save her, Alpha. The pregnancy must be flushed out for her to live. She's too weak to carry it.” The healer said but Darin wasn't ready to listen.Lucas stood up and frowned at Darin. “What the heck are you saying? You want
Catherine's POVWhy would they suggest such a thing? That I flush out my baby? I can't do that. I have the right to keep my baby.I looked at everyone in the room and then back at the healer. “Isn't there another way?” I asked.He sighed and shook his head. “The only way is to flush out the baby or you risk your life.” He answered and I could feel my heart breaking into pieces.The thoughts about losing the baby alone started making me to panick. My breathing became unsteady and I placed my hand on my chest. I can't lose my baby.“Catherine, you have to calm down.” Alpha Darwin cooed but I couldn't bring myself to calm down.“I can't calm down. I can't. My baby!” I exclaimed as my breathing became Haggard and forced.I was so scared. The thought of losing my baby alone made me terrified and I couldn't control myself anymore. I looked at them, and they had scared looks on their faces.Alpha Darwin rushed to me and sat on the bed facing me. He held my shoulders and commanded. “Look into
Catherine's POVI was about to come down from the bed when my father walked into the room.“Catherine?” He called, looking at me lovingly.“Father,” I whispered slowly and lowered my head. I was so ashamed of myself that I couldn't even look into his eyes. I've done wrong and goodness knows what he might probably say to me. He's going to yell at me for sure. I've let him down. I fucked up big time!I sniffed, waiting for him to say something. He walked up to me and embraced me. My eyes widened and I was lost for words.“Oh, Catherine,” He patted my back and caressed my hair.I expected him to yell at me. Why on Earth did he hug me? “I'm sorry, Catherine,” He apologized and I became more confused. I was supposed to be the one apologizing.“Father? Why are you apologizing? I'm the one who did the wrong thing here. I should be the one apologizing, not you.” I said.“No, Catherine. I apologize for everything. I wasn't here to protect you, I wasn't here to guide you like a good father wou
Alpha Darwin's POVAfter leaving Catherine's room, I returned to my room and plopped down on the couch. I ruffled my hair and sighed heavily. A knock came on the door and I looked in its direction.“Come in,” I said.There was silence for a while before the door opened. I stood up when I noticed that it was Lucas. As he approached me, I couldn't help but feel drawn to him. I still haven't gotten over him and I don't think I ever will.He walked up to me and stopped in front of me. “What's wrong? Is there any problem?” I asked worriedly.He shook his head. “There's nothing. I think I'm going to have to stay here for the meantime since Catherine is here as well. I'm worried about her and I don't want to leave her alone here. She is the only sibling I have and I love her so much. I don't want anything to happen to her.” He requested and I forced a smile.“Sure, there's no problem. I'm totally fine with that. You can stay here if you don't think that Catherine is safe here. There are plen
