Rebirth Under The Pink Moon

"Tell me, Jamil. You are not doing these with me." She coughed blood with shaking, hurting breath while her eyes were covered with a bloodshot gaze when she witnessed the evil grin expression covering her husband's face to see her miserable like this. 

"Honey, I suggest you stop talking if you want your death to be peaceful." His sweet, velvety voice, which makes her heart flutter every single time, now feels venomous in her ears.

"H-How?" her voice turned harsher as the pain intensified around her chest because of the poison Jamil gave her in her wine, "How could you do this with me? And your pup?" Her eyes filled with tears, and her hands covered her belly, which was now painful. 

"You don't care about me. I understand. But….Do…”

"Do you…."

"Cough!"  

The blood spits out with her words, "Don't you even care about your blood?" her eyes darted over the man who looked cruel to her.

 On the other side, Jamil continues to grin to see her drenched in blood. Her bloodied appearance satisfied him. 

He gleamed with a smug sneer to see her trembling with suffering and grief.

"Yes, You are right; I don't care about it."

"I don't care about you or those filthy pups which would be born by you!" His expression turned to disgust as his eyes squeezed with a demonic sight, "I, Jamil, only care about power!" He declared with a brutal smile on his face across.

Layla's eyes enlarged in shock as she heard him, and she felt something liquid coming out from the middle of her legs the next moment. It's hot, warm and thick; it's flowing through her thighs to her feet.

She was terrified with horror to discover what it was! What was actually dripping from her legs?

"N….NO!" She yelled with agony and misery, which caused her a sharp pain coming to her lower abdomen, "Ahh!" 

The pain gets unbearable. 

"My Baby!" She screamed in agony to realise her baby was dying inside her, and she held her belly in sorrow and hurt.  

Her body was shaking like she had reached a dead end of her. Her eyes were winded with a petrified scenario when she observed her blood now over the floor.

"No! No! No!" She shook her head repeatedly in disbelief and attempted to rise from the dining chair.

However, the unbearable pain hit her hard as it became more complicated and brutal every second before she collapsed to fall over the marble ground with weakness.

"Ah!" she screamed out with pain and bit over her lower lips with a halt, only to taste her blood oozing into her lips. 

Jamil was guarded over her with a victorious glance and an evil sneer. 

He did not stand from his chair but held the wine glass from the dining table and drank it without any care for her.

Watching this, her eyes filled with venom.

"W-Why?" She shouted, breaking heart, "Why did you betray me?" She could not even take a deep breath without feeling stabbed.

Hearing her question, he stopped drinking and gazed at her side with an ominous look, "Really? Don't you still understand why I gave you poison even after I declared, All I love Power!"

Layla's eyes turned stony and flinty; she almost bared her teeth with full execration to shout but could only taste her own blood in this process, "What do you mean? Jamil!"

"What did I do to deserve your betrayal like this?" She shrieked with outrage, ignoring the enormous pain down there.

"I never, ever betrayed you!"

"On the other way, all I remember is to love you and cherish our married life! My parents and siblings all adore you and take you as their family till their last breath!" Her heart ached to think about her beloved parents, the late Alpha and Luna, who died in an enemy pack's attack a year ago before she and Jamil announced to be a new pair as Alpha and Luna.

After she loses her family in an enemy pack attack, Jamil is the only one left for her as a family. She thought being pregnant was a blessing for them after their family's death. 

Jamil's parents (Gamma) were killed in an attack while he was a teenager, and he was left without family support. 

She dreamed that it should be their happiest moment. They can ever have! 

But it has now been demolished.

"All I did was love you with all my heart, Jamil." Her eyes flooded with tears, while a burning sensation around her chest made it difficult for her to breathe normally. 

She can't believe she fell in love with this cruel, horrible man so easily at first sight. 

She always believed that first love blooms perfectly before it's rooted deep in the heart. However, when she learned she was on the verge of dying due to betrayal. She wished she could return in time and replace all her love with hatred. 

Her comment made Jamil chuckle and put the wine glass back on the table. He lazily glances at the awful and miserable sight of her before rising from his chair to approach her and kneeling in the following round to be face-to-face with her.

"Oh, Layla, how foolish you are," He raised his hand to stroke her cheek, but she turned her head in another direction with disgust to think of his touch, "Don't dare to touch me with your murderous hand!" 

He grinned squinted, "Well, what can I say? I'm the badass!" He backed down his hand, "So, you want to know why I betrayed you, don't you?"

"Yes!" Her brows snapped together, eyes bored into him with deadly vision, 

He enjoyed her aggression and nodded.

"Alright," he said as he stepped back into his seat, "Layla Gomez, what do you think If I told you I never loved you even once?"

Her blood became colder, and her expression got icier with scorn, "What?" 

"What did you just say?" 

"You heard right. I never loved you, Layla; rather, I hated you. I loath you to be born into a powerful family and be so perfect."

"You got everything which I could possibly want. The name, the Power, the position. People respect and admire you for being the powerful Alpha's elder daughter." 

"I was envious of everything." 

"I, Jamil, despised you during our time together!"

"Do you hear it! I hate you! Layla!"

"You are just a chess piece in my game to get my way with my dream. Do you get it!" His single word felt like a million needles slicing into Layla's heart right now, and she couldn't even breathe as a result.
