LOGINBloodlines That night, Damon did not leave my side for even a second. Not while we ate dinner. Not while the maids cleaned the room. Not even when I complained that he was staring at me too much. “You’re still doing it,” I muttered while adjusting the blanket around myself. Damon sat beside me on the bed, one arm resting behind my back protectively. “Doing what?” “Looking at me like someone offended you.” “They did offend me.” I sighed softly. The meeting with the elders had ended hours ago already, yet the atmosphere around him still felt cold. Heavy. Dangerous. He looked calmer now compared to earlier, but I knew Damon. His calmness was usually worse. That meant he was thinking. Planning. Probably deciding whose lives to ruin. I rubbed my stomach absentmindedly while staring down quietly. Human-born. The words kept replaying inside my head. “She is human-born.” I swallowed slowly. Damon noticed immediately. His fingers tilted my chin upward gently. “Don’t t
The next few days became complete chaos.Not dangerous chaos.Not company chaos.Not pack chaos.Pregnancy chaos.And unfortunately for everyone inside the villa…I was the center of it.“Damon.”“Yes?”“I want grilled fish.”“Okay.”“With strawberry syrup.”Silence.I looked up from the couch innocently.Damon stood there in his office clothes, staring at me like I had just personally offended his ancestors.“With what?”“Strawberry syrup.”He blinked slowly.Then rubbed his forehead.“Kira.”“Yes?”“That combination sounds illegal.”I gasped dramatically.“You’re insulting your child’s cravings?”“Our child cannot possibly want that.”I crossed my arms immediately.“You don’t love us anymore.”His eyes widened instantly.How one sentence could terrify Alpha Damon this much honestly needed scientific research.“That is not what I said.”“It’s exactly what you said.”“Kira.”“You called us illegal.”He sighed deeply.Then walked toward me.I was laying on the large couch in the living
The next morning, I woke up to an empty bed.I blinked slowly.The curtains swayed softly from the morning breeze entering through the slightly opened balcony doors, sunlight stretching across the room in warm golden lines.I yawned tiredly and rubbed my stomach.The baby kicked lightly.“Good morning to you too,” I muttered sleepily.Usually, Damon was beside me whenever I woke up.Even if he had work.Even if he had meetings.Even if the entire pack was probably collapsing outside.That man somehow always stayed beside me until I opened my eyes.So waking up alone immediately felt strange.I sat up slowly.My body still felt heavy these days.Pregnancy was truly no joke.I finally slipped out of bed carefully before wearing my slippers.The moment I stepped outside the room, the villa already felt suspiciously quiet.Too quiet.I frowned.“Where is everybody?”Normally by now the workers would already be moving around busily.But today?Silence.I walked downstairs slowly.Nothing.
The moment I became Luna officially, people suddenly started expecting things from me.A lot of things.At first, I thought it was just going to be standing beside Alpha Damon during gatherings, smiling politely, and probably attending a few meetings.I was wrong.Terribly wrong.Because apparently, being Luna meant people would come to me for almost everything.Pack disputes.Charity work.Children welfare.Food supply discussions.Women's gatherings.Festival planning.Medical support.Even emotional counseling.At this point, I was convinced they wanted me to solve world hunger too.And the worst part?I was heavily pregnant.That morning, I stood in front of the mirror while one of the maids adjusted my dress carefully around my stomach.I stared at my reflection.My belly was already very obvious now.Round.Beautiful.And honestly…Heavy.I rubbed it tiredly.“You’re getting bigger every day,” I muttered to my stomach.The baby kicked lightly as if responding.I gasped softly.“
THAT NIGHT The room was quiet except for the soft sound of rain tapping against the large glass windows.It had started almost an hour ago.Slow at first.Now the rain poured heavily against the villa roof, wrapping the entire place in a cold silence that felt strangely comforting.I sat against the headboard of the bed, one arm wrapped around Kira while she slept peacefully on my chest.Her breathing was soft.Warm.Gentle.My fingers moved slowly through her hair while my other hand rested carefully over her stomach.Even in sleep, she kept moving closer to me as if her body naturally searched for warmth.Or maybe for safety.I lowered my eyes toward her face.She looked exhausted.These past few weeks had not been easy on her.Sometimes she would wake up in the middle of the night crying because of cramps.Sometimes she would suddenly feel dizzy.Sometimes she would become emotional over the smallest things.Yesterday she cried because the kitchen staff forgot to add extra strawbe
Two Days later The evening air was cold.Quiet too.Too quiet.Kira stood by the large window in the villa, her fingers resting against the glass as she stared outside. The sky had already darkened, leaving only the glow of the garden lights and the sound of distant crickets filling the silence.She shifted slightly and rubbed her stomach.God.She was huge now.At first, her pregnancy had been small and almost unnoticeable. But now?Now her stomach was fully round and heavy.Every movement reminded her she was carrying life inside her.And apparently, Alpha babies were not gentle.She sighed softly as she adjusted the oversized sweater she was wearing.“Your father is stressing me out already,” she muttered to her stomach.The baby kicked immediately.Kira gasped.Then glared downward.“See? Exactly what I’m talking about.”Another kick.“Oh, so now you’re defending him?”She could not even lie.She missed Damon badly.Even though it had only been a few days since he left for anothe
That afternoon, I was still at his villa.It felt strange in a good way. Like I had crossed into a space I was never meant to occupy, yet somehow belonged there. I sat on the edge of his bed, my legs drawn up, still wearing his T shirt. I had not even considered changing out of it. I did not want t
It was around 3 p.m. when I was called out of my office.I checked the time on my phone once, then stood up. My heart felt strangely heavy, but I brushed it aside and walked straight to the office I was summoned to.The moment I stepped inside, I knew something was wrong.Rosina’s sister was seated
The next day, I found myself standing beside the Alpha at another birthday party.Again.I honestly did not understand why he kept taking me along to places like this. I was his secretary, not his companion, not his date, not anything special. Yet here I was, dressed neatly, standing quietly by his
Instead of leaving that night, I decided to leave the next morning.I did not know why, but something in me wanted to stay a little longer. Maybe it was the warmth of the pack, the familiar laughter, or the way I finally felt like I belonged somewhere. When I told my aunties in the morning that I w
