LOGINKaida PovImmediately she left, my knees weakened. It felt like I had been drained of all my strength.I sat on the ground without caring about my image, my eyes fixed on the door, my breathing fast and my heart still pounding.Goodness… that was a tough one.Slowly, I turned to the side, only to see Benson staring at me. There was an odd expression on his face. I followed his gaze to the pills in my hands, and that alone made me stiffen.“Is there something wrong, Benson?” I asked, my voice low.Benson snapped out of his thoughts and looked at me, his face blank. His eyes moved from me to the pills again before he let out a heavy sigh and shook his head.“It’s nothing,” he muttered, though his voice carried a strain that didn’t match his words. “Just thinking.”I watched him for a moment. His expression had already returned to calm, but something about it didn’t sit right with me. Still, I let it go.Besides… I was exhausted.Handling Hannah was never easy, especially knowing she’s a
Kaida PovA strange taste filled my mouth as I vomited. My stomach churned with disgust, and soon, I had thrown up everything I had eaten, but it just wouldn’t stop.According to that night, I was already one month pregnant, and this was the first time I was actually vomiting, though I had felt the urge before.I gagged and belched until only acid came out.From the corner of my eyes, I saw a bottle of water stretched toward me. I grabbed it immediately, rinsed my mouth, then drank the rest, and only then did the disgust settle a little.I breathed heavily, tears sliding down my face as Benson patted my back from behind.Then—“What’s going on here?”The voice landed like a blow.My body stiffened, and so did the hand on my back.Slowly, I turned.Benson’s jaw had tightened.I swallowed, then forced myself to look at Hannah.She stood there with her arms folded across her chest, a slight frown on her face, her dark eyes fixed on me. The way her gaze moved over me, slow and deliberate,
Kaida PovAnother few days passed since I found out I was pregnant, and I had been very careful.Every night, I stayed up longer than I should, my hand resting on my stomach as I stared at nothing, wondering how this had even happened and what I was going to do when it started to show.And then there was Kabir.My eyes closed slowly, my fingers tightening slightly around the bottle beside me as I took a sip of water. The thought of him never came gently. It pressed down on my chest, heavy and unsettling.Where was he? What was he doing? And if he finds out about this child… what would his reaction be?A slow breath left me, but it did nothing to ease the weight in my chest.The sound of footsteps pulled me out of my thoughts. I looked toward the door, and my eyes widened slightly.“Hannah?”She stepped in with her usual bright smile, like nothing in the world could weigh her down. Her hair was tied in a high ponytail, and she looked as composed and graceful as ever. She nudged Benson
Kaida Pov“Do you want to keep the child?”My body shivered. My eyes widened as I looked up at him in horror.My lips trembled. “What… what do you mean?”Benson fell silent for a moment. His gaze shifted briefly to the door, then to my stomach, then back to me.My heart clenched.His voice lowered. “I don’t know your past, Kaida… but you’ve always looked like someone carrying something heavy.” He paused, his eyes darkening slightly. “And if you’ve been keeping everything so tightly hidden, then I know your situation isn’t simple. This might have been a mistake. So—”My shoulders trembled. He wasn’t wrong. Not completely.“Kaida,” he continued, more firmly this time, “it’s your body. If this child puts you in danger… or ruins things for you… you don’t have to keep it.”His words settled slowly.Then they hit.My breath caught sharply. My head snapped up.“You… you mean I should abort the child?”Benson didn’t look away this time.He nodded.Something inside me snapped.I yanked my hand
Kaida PovIt’s been a few minutes since I regained consciousness, but I still haven’t been able to come back to my senses.The room was silent, and I guessed there was no one else there. It gave me space to think.I stared blankly at the ceiling of the hospital, my body still, but my mind in chaos like something inside me was tearing itself apart.The words of Healer Leon kept echoing in my head, but somehow, I couldn’t make sense of them.I’m pregnant…I’m carrying a child… one that belongs to both of us. But—I choked on my breath. A strange taste filled my mouth, one that was hard to swallow.Slowly, I placed my hand on my stomach… but immediately pulled it away. My breathing quickened.Somehow, it felt like there was already something there.But how was that even possible?This time, I sat up slowly and rested my back against the bed frame. I lifted my shirt, revealing my smooth, flat stomach, and once again, I placed my slightly trembling palms against it.I held my breath as I
Kaida PovThe walk to the hospital was filled with Benson nagging like a mother.At first, I listened to him and even responded, but as time passed, my attention slowly drifted to other things.I responded to the greetings of the pack members, especially the adults who attended my classes.It had been more than three weeks since I took on the responsibility of teaching, and somehow, I had become familiar to them. When I first started, I thought it would be difficult, that they would give me a hard time, but I had been wrong.Though most of them were rough and uneducated, they were sincere. The northern pack members were straightforward. They preferred to settle things with action rather than hold grudges, and when you treated them well, they remembered it.I found myself growing used to them… comfortable.I smiled faintly at a man who waved at me. He was one of the warriors in charge of goods. I had taught him numbers.“You’re pretty popular.”Benson’s voice cut in. I glanced at him,
Kaida Pov “What are you doing here?” I frowned and managed to stand straight. Michelle sat comfortably like she owned the room. Her heels and face still remained sharp and arrogant, just like I remembered. She wore a smug smile on her face, and I couldn’t help but wonder what the hell was wrong
Ken Pov The car drove speedily on the road. I stared ahead anxiously, wishing I could fly there. I hadn't been able to rest these past few days. Not only feeling guilty about Leo, but also worried about Kaida. I had hoped that she’d come back to the pack if she saw how dangerous it was outside.
Ken PovHe hung up.My heart skipped as I stared at the darkened screen.What could be the problem?For Joel, who was always calm to sound that panicked… something had to be wrong.A cold feeling crept into my chest.What if it was about Kaida?My grip on the phone tightened unconsciously.I had al
Kaida PovLeo’s pillow rolled out.My heart skipped a beat. But what happened next was even more painful. I watched helplessly as one of the wolves ran towards me and stepped heavily on the pillow.My heart bled immediately. “No!!” I shook my head desperately as I cried out. I didn't care about
