Pregnant Before Goodbye; His Misjudged Luna

FREYA"The woman shall not become pregnant without authorization during the marriage, otherwise it will be regarded as a violation of the agreement.”I remembered clearly what was in the marital agreement that I just broke. It was only one night that I forgot to take the pill. A month before my marriage with my husband, Leo was supposed to end, I became pregnant with his child. The pregnancy test shook in my hand, my entire body seeming to tremble. I turned my fiery gaze on my best friend. “I'm pregnant, Lizzie.” Despite the two red lines on the pregnancy test, I still couldn't believe I had a child in my belly. The first conscious impulse I felt was joy. It climbed up along my legs, expanded into my stomach, my heartbeat accelerated as heat burned my eye. Lizzy wiped away the happy tears from my eyes, and said excitedly. “I am the baby’s godmother.” Lizzy’s joy was as deep as mine and she hugged me warmly. When I described my symptoms to her this morning, she suggested that I

FREYA I went to work at the pack hospital. Lizzy was already waiting for me in my office. Though Lizzy was a witch and not a werewolf, she was widely accepted by the seven packs as one of the best doctors. “I saw Leo bring Caroline in. What happened? Are you okay?” she questioned worriedly. I explained what happened, Lizzy’s eyes widening with each word I said. Finally, when I was done, she shook her head. “Were you able to tell him about the baby?” “No, and I don't think I will.” The thought of telling Leo about our pup made my stomach tighten with dread. Who knew if he would ask me to get rid of the baby? “Why?” Lizzy asked. “It doesn't matter. I'm getting a divorce. I need to know if you'll take over the research into the drugs while I'm away from Blackclaw.” Lizzy refused vehemently. “If you leave this pack, I'm going with you. Have you forgotten that we are more like sisters than friends?” I nodded, my eyes burning with tears. I leaned in and hugged her hard. Lizzy’s

FREYAMy skin tingled all over as my body flattened against Leo’s. A small, sad smile crossed my lips. “What on earth are you doing, Leo?” I was surprised that he made any effort to dance with me. After seeing Caroline dressed so beautifully downstairs, I had assumed she would be his partner. “What does it seem like, Sunshine? I am dancing with my wife.” He shrugged carelessly, his dark eyes fixed on mine. My teeth pressed down on my lip. Being held so intimately in his arms, it was almost the same as the first day we danced together. I was only eighteen then, and we had just discovered we were to be mates. The memory of how happy I had been back then saddened my heart now. The memories were so strong that tears burned my eyes but I blinked rapidly, continuing to dance as though nothing was wrong. Leo's fingers came to rest against my waist as we danced, and suddenly, he bent and dipped me, my hair trailing behind my back. I lifted my leg, closing my eyes as my heart hammered

FREYA My hands shook as I hurried away from Leo. It felt like my whole world came crashing down, and I couldn't breathe. Tears welled up in my eyes. Leo had never initiated a kiss between us before. To say I was shocked was an understatement. What wasn't so surprising was his reaction after. Pushing me away and blaming me for the spark of the mate bond between us was exactly what I'd expected him to do. I couldn't return to the banquet hall, so I walked instead, cutting across the stone path that led from the banquet hall into the gardens. The night air washed on my sensitive skin, making me shiver the same way I had in Leo’s arms. Leo’s reaction had confused me, and I couldn't understand why he would behave that way. Leo had never been jealous or possessive when it came to me, but he had been jealous during the banquet.I could tell by the way he acted around Derek, glaring at him and clenching his fisted hands. It was even more humiliating that he only kissed me because of Der

LEOI stayed at the pharmacy after Freya left. Ashford was beside me as we checked the hospital storage rooms, consultation areas and the dispensary at the back. The more I saw of the sorry state of the place, the more my jaw tightened. “The inventory records are a mess.” I grunted, appalled at the horror playing out before my eyes. My heart squeezed and I was grateful Freya had offered to show Madame Claire around to the main pack hospital. They had left together about thirty minutes ago. At first, I had assumed Freya was just being difficult, but now seeing the state of the place, I was grateful Freya had distracted Madame Claire. Ashford nodded stiffly. His eyes were riveted on the mess around us. “Half the medications are stored at the wrong temperature. Even the machine she exhibited so proudly has never been serviced.”My nostrils flared as I dropped the folder in my hand on the table. How did Freya discover that everything was a mess?She had challenged Caroline confident
