last update Last Updated: 2025-04-16 19:12:43

I busied myself with my doctor's appointment. I learned that I needed to eat certain things, reduce my stress, and exercise more to keep my body healthy for the baby. The doctor said my blood pressure rose higher than it was yesterday.

Which is insane. Twenty-four hours and I'm a mad woman.

I avoided answering any of her questions about announcing my pregnancy. When a Luna is pregnant it's a huge deal for the pack. She'll be birthing the next leader.

But since I'm aiming for a divorce, I don't want everyone to know about this. Especially not my parents. They're not good people to me. I don't want their influence in my child's life. They'll find out like everyone else when I leave this place.

The rest of the day was uneventful. I made more notes of what I needed and filled out the summons.

By dinner time, which was 8 p.m. for me, I got a phone call from Alpha Cassiel, which surprised me. He doesn't usually call.

What is usual for us? Just a text. We're kind of friends.

  • Once His Mate, Now His Regret   Chapter Thirty-Seven: Matthias Crowe

    Trying to reach aurielle was difficult, and it felt like i was wasting my time. With our divorce on the way, she’s gotten bolder to the point where she thinks she can just leave the house and not tell me where she is. I called my mother’s hospital, doctor Sharpee said aurielle did show up but she left an hour before i called. I wondered where she might have gone and the doctor said something about telling aurielle to reduce her stress levels. So i called hotels, resturants, thank fuck the third hotel i called is where she’s staying. After rudely talking to me on the phone, she had the audacity to tell the hotel not to pass any phone calls through. Which is bullshit.My parents arrived first, then nerissa’s parents and surprisingly, my grandmother was wheeled in by two of her nurses. I felt my stomach drop from the tension as everyone garthered in the living room waiting for the dinner to be ready. It’s insane how strained the air around here is. Nerissa is seated with her parents,

    The plan was to sleep somewhere else to avoid the meltdown that would happen when my parents, Nerissa, Matthias and matthias’s parents end up at dinner tonight. I shall not be heading for that mess. And not to mention that Matthias texted me to inform me that his grandmother would be there. If the devil had a mother it would be that woman. So I’m not going to waste my time with that. I think my stress levels might never go down if i show up there. I lodged at a classy hotel for the night, and ordered delicious meal. I took off my shoes and crawled into the bed. Letting myself sleep without worrying about someone breaking in to attack me or some stupid shit like that. For the first time i felt like i was having a peaceful sleep. It made me uncomfortable. I’d never slept so soundily in my life. It felt nice, and nice was uncomfortable. I was halfway through the best sleep of my life when the hotel phone rang. I know it’s the hotel phone because mine is silenced. And on do-not-disturb

    “Mrs Crowe, why do we keep rehashing the same thing?”I sighed, trying to avoid the doctor’s gaze.“Your blood pressure is high. Each time you keep saying you’ll reduce your stress, but you aren’t. It doesn’t even seem like you’re eating the right contents or sleeping enough,” she went on to list everything I was doing wrong and how I needed to do better for my sake and the baby’s sake.I listened with one ear open because there’s nothing I can do about my stress with Nerissa around. I wish I could take three days away, to just.... perhaps I should have listened to Cassiel and kept the key. “- I just feel like perhaps pregnancy is more unplanned than you led on. I’m going to recommend some vitamins and a therapist.”I flinched, sitting up straight. “What? A therapist, why?”Doctor Sharpee exhales, her eyes narrowing with displeasure. “Young women, especially lunas, are under alot of pressure to birth the next heir to the pack they’re in charge of. It can be stressful. And it can affe

    Kneeling for four hours was nothing. I’d been forced to kneel for longer. My knees will probably never be the same. After being there, glaring at Nerissa’s pictures. I was finally able to leave when a servant came to inform me that my four hours were up. Of course, Matthias had told them. I went straight to my room, showered, and changed my clothes into something nicer. Something I considered cute, because I needed a way to cheer myself up. And after rubbing some ointment on my knees, I needed to get out of here. Go to my appointment, eat something. And talk to Cassiel. I looked at myself in the mirror. If you ignore the sadness in my eyes, you’d think I was beautiful. I'm wearing a soft, dreamy outfit that feels like something out of a romantic countryside fairytale. My top is a delicate, off-white knit camisole with thin straps and a subtle floral embroidery in the center—it's fitted and feminine, hugging my shape without being too tight. It has a slightly vintage, handmade charm

  • Once His Mate, Now His Regret   Chapter Thirty-Three: Matthias Crowe

    I decided to take nerissa away from the house so she could see my office and how well I’m handling things. She was still the beacon of joy I’ve always known and loved. I can’t believe she came back. I can’t believe she’s alive. I’ve missed her. I’ve missed her every day for three years. I wanted to take her on dates, have a true luna ceremony for her. I want to do so many things. And yet as i drive us to my office building, my thoughts kept falling back to the things aurielle said. Should i have asked more questions? Because she’s right. Nerissa vanished for three years without telling me by herself that she needed space. I would have let her have all the space she needed.Did she find herself? Why come back now? When I’m weeks away from divorcing her sister?Did she date while she was away?Fuck, i despise aurielle and the seeds of doubt she has put in my mind. Nerissa wouldn’t lie to me. I trust her entirely. I was the one who fucked up. I should have fought my parents harder when

    I don’t know how to feel. My sister had just accused me of attacking her... without saying a single word. Matthias believed her, which isn’t weird, it’s actually kind of normal for him to take the side of the devil. But I’m just baffled. Was that like thirty seconds? A minute at most. The moment Nerissa left like the snake she is, Matthias dropped his fake smile.“What did you do?” he whispered, yelled. Like she was going to hear him. Actually, she might. I get the feeling she didn’t leave at all. She’s probably glued to the door wanting to hear him berate me. Well, I have a doctor’s appointment, and I will not be insulted today. “What did I do? What is wrong with you? Your ex pops up after three years, feeds you some story, and you immediately believe it? You believe she hasn’t been dating or seeing someone else. You think she was actually finding herself? You believe everything she tells you, even without proof? You are the definition of a fool.” I don’t know why I spilled my in

    “Hey, sister.” A soft voice filled the air suddenly. I felt a pinch on my face, and I tossed in my bed. “Wake up, you little maggot.”I opened my eyes to see Nerissa staring at me. Her eyes slitted like a snake, she brought up something sharp, and I screamed. Sitting straight up to smack her off me, but instead I found no one. My chest hurts, and I feel like I can’t breathe. My neck itches, and... and.... I got up and immediately ran to the bathroom to wash my face. I can’t believe she’s back. And she’s already haunting me. After everything I’ve been through, she’s back. Spreading lies immediately on the first night. I got out of the bathroom and made myself leave my room so I could drink some water. The second my door came open, she was there. A bright smile on her wicked face.“Hello, sister.” She pushed me back into the room with one finger and kicked my door closed with her foot. “We haven’t gotten to chat since you locked yourself away. I figured you would at least miss me.”I

    The devil comes in pink, you’ve heard it from me.Nerissa stood in front of the gate, her hair blonde as ever. Curly, flowing over her shoulders. A strapless black dress and heels that matched. With an overnight bag and a huge smile. If Matthias wasn’t standing so closely behind me, I’d have slammed the gate and stormed into the house. Unfortunately, I can’t pull that off. Suddenly, I feel like vomiting. Suddenly, my freedom is much farther away than I was ready to accept.The only thing I could say was- “I told you she wasn’t dead.”I shoved him out of the way and walked the path towards the house. Heels hitting the ground could be heard following me, and someone grabbed my elbow. Forcing me around. Nerissa hugged me tightly. Likely for show.“Oh, I’ve missed you so much, Aurielle. It’s been so long. Too long.” She pulled back. Matthias was stunned. “You’re alive.” He whispered. She turned to face him. “Of course I’m alive. Didn’t Aurielle tell you? When we went on that break, I

    I spent my entire day picturing having a child in this place. I mean.... wow. Look at the space of the living room, there are two living rooms. One small and upstairs, and the main one is downstairs with a fireplace. There’s a pool in the backyard, four bedrooms, and five bathrooms. Who needs this much?There’s a study/library. It’s empty. No basement, which isn’t a problem. There’s a laundry room, this place has everything, and Cassiel pointed out that I could change one into a baby room. The other rooms can be for other things. He got me thinking about what I wanted to do for a job. What career path did I want to take? And by the end of the day, I was handed a bunch of papers with jobs in the community, and jobs at his pack. And several others. I was also handed the key to the house, but I rejected it. In the car, Cassiel asked why.“I haven’t paid the rent yet, and i can’t move in at the moment. I don’t want to keep the key. I’m in love with the house.”That was the partial tru
